As others have said, giving Redders the job full-time, only for our trigger-happy owner to give him the spanish archer, would be a disaster for the club. He's too important an asset and is doing good things with the Academy. He's a steadying hand at the minute, hopefully allowing Cellino to take his time and get the next appointment right

It's nice to see that Cellino believes that too! It'd be great to see Redders working closely with the new manager (coach, whatever), maybe as an assistant of sorts, in order to help him get to grips with the large squad and integrate play styles from the u-18's through to the first team.

Exclusive: Massimo Cellino lining up Slovenian Darko Milanic to be the next #LUFC coach :shock:

I understand that Cellino and Milanic spoke on Sunday night. Deal isn't done but he's the coach Cellino wants.

Looks like he has a really good track record as a coach :tup: does anyone know anything about how his teams play?

If this is the way we are going it's much better than the Hock and potentially better than some of the "coaches" that have thrown their hat in the ring, if you believe the media :lol:

And to top it off a great win last night and Redders will stay in charge of the Academy :tup:

It's my understanding also that Darko Milanic is very close to taking #lufc job. Nothing done yet but looks like he's the one.

According to Phil Hay, Darko Milanic has triggered a release clause from Sturm Graz and will become our new head coach next week

Yep it's all over twitter. Milanic will take control of his last game tomorrow for Sturm Graz. Coming to England to finalise the details on Sunday.

We should settle on Mandarin as a common language.

It sounds like Milanic is basically paying to secure his release from Graz (via a "walk-out clause"). He's under contract until 2016

as in like WE are paying?? :duno:

Surely a guy called Darko should be managing Doncaster Rovers?
