As a player, Crosby made over 700 club<br />

He was a promotion winner with Brighton and<br />

After moving into a coaching role at Scunthorpe<br />

in 2006, he was then also on the staff at Reading,<br />

Southampton and Sheffield United.<br />

The 50-year-old worked at international level with<br />

After spells as assistant and caretaker-manager,<br />

year with an early highlight the club’s run to the<br />
