I'm not a big fan as find him a bit Pardewesque on the talking shit front. But he can hold his head up on a mission accomplished. As they're not inviting applicants it sounds like cost cutting.
My understanding is they are going with a coach, not a manager, quite possibly Hudson, for now.
Their "business" in the shortened off season is being done by an advisor or agent with the view of reduducing the wage bill but getting players to play the "German way". It maybe that the next coach is there for months but the long term aim is to get a new European manager.
This is may or may not come true but that is the plan. Now I have said that expect Pulis to be announced tomorrow.
after guiding them to safety and arguably their best win (v WBA) of the season on Friday .. proves that 'loyalty' and 'gratitude' mean nothing to far too many in football .. BUT it serves the Cowley's right for quitting Lincoln for a better future ((:>)
I reckon the Cowley's are Brum bound .. but in these times of no money, no income, will ANY club outside the Prem be looking to sign expensive personnel ?
Met him at Mansfield FA CUP away game last season....very pleasant to talk to, I found him to be a very nice individual with a great sense of humour. Lincoln fans were understandably gutted when he decided to leave them.....they had been on such a high.
You'd reckon he would want to be at Leeds as assistant in the Prem - and get that on his CV, rather than forfeit that to go to a struggling Huddersfield.
I wrote on another forum that they struck me as cocky chancers. Saving Huddersfield from relegation when you have the benefit of parachute money is not evidence of indispensable managerial genius and it seems their Board concurred.

Well, that's your opinion, fair enough .....but Huddersfield were bottom of the division and hadn't won a game in the time before the Cowley bros. took over, parachute money et al.
I don't believe it's a question of managerial genius either - they were asked to save Hudds from relegation, given little money to spend in the January window, but did the job anyway, mission accomplished.
You can bet their sacking was with Grant being sold from underneath them; told precious little of the transfer fee was going into the playing budget and tempers flared.

Or something like that.
