Has anyone heard anything about N Redfern??

I am hoping he stays but there does not seem to be any news about him.

Looks like he is on his way out. Really hope Jason Blunt gets the job, he really is Leeds through and through, and in my opinion we have him to thank for all the young talent coming through academy.

Hope he stays because think he will struggle elsewhere. Still got a lot to learn.
Wish him luck though

There is a rumour that Redders might be joining Simon Grayson at Preston to work along side Glynn Snodin. I wish him well wherever he goes and although it didn't work out as coach he will always be appreciated by the Leeds supporters and Steve Morison!

Following on from kj message down yonder re giles being player manager of west brom
Brought back memories. Do they still do player managers?
Any in top 3 divisions? Think they used to do them in div 1 didn't they. By jeez. Them were days!

{Ed001's Note - Alex Neil was a player manager, technically, when he moved to Norwich, as he was still registered as a player.}

Football was simpler in those days. I remember going to players houses for autographs when I was young. Fans and players were more together. They did not move about as much from club to club because the wages were not that much different. Now its all money, they want to be in the champions league for the money not the glory. Whole different game. It would be hard to be a player/manager today.

The last permanent player manager was Vialli Chelsea in 1999, although Giggs Man U was interim player manager for 2014 till Van Gaal came. The LMA decided a while back that it was to much to expect some one to do both roles permanently but they can do it for an interim period until a manager is found.

Interesting
Think Steve Gerard could have been an excellent player coach. Prob done better than brenny. Doubt raheem would be leaving Gerard!
Starchan too!

Ausman, I'm not completely anti MC. I have said I much prefer his regime than Bates and GFH (who wouldn't), I think he has got LUFC's best interests at heart and he's not afraid to splash the cash to achieve it. I do get fed up with his constant outbursts and slagging employees off in the gutter press. I think he should show a bit more respect and it makes us look like a joke football club. If he took a back seat and let Pearson do the PR I'd be much happier. Failing that, if he engaged his brain before he opened his gob, I'd be a happy bunny!

I agree we have made some key appointments in Pearson and Rosler and despite what I've said I believe we are definitely going in the right direction. I'm looking forward to seeing some quality added this year to what could be the best crop of youngsters we've seen at ER for many a year.

Happy Friday everyone!

MM can't believe I agree with all of that post. I think we all feel Cellino should take a back seat. Think he came with the idea he would be treated like some emperor who saved our village but now he has realised he needs to earn our respect. Our club has improved with him running it and I am just hoping we make the right signings in July. He knows he will probably be absent again during the season so seems to be putting a team together who can run the club in his abscence. Just hope him and the fans give Rosler a chance.

Yeah. I'm in Sunday. Or I will be down the beach. Mind it's supposed to be a chilly winters 23 degrees Sunday. Might have to put some wood on the pot belly and fire it up!

Chilly 23 degrees lol! I'd be a bit sweaty under the old acrylic shell suit in those conditions Aus. Never mind, high fashion was never intended to be practical!
