Nice fella, good luck to him.
When you retire, you switch bosses - from the one that hired you, to the one that married you.

As others have said he’s a nice guy just not what was required at Leeds at the time.

Harry Kewell is one of the favourites for the vacant Oldham job.

Kewell must really love football to take the type of management jobs he has up to now. His % win rate is terrible, but who knows in the right situation he might be successful given time to bring youngsters through.

I saw an interview with him a year or so ago, at his last club, I think, and he said he absolutely loved being a manager, nearly more than playing, I believe.

He may enjoy it but i find it telling that no A-League club has seemed to show interest in having him as manager

All clubs need a manager, some prefer to manage in the lower leagues and I can understand why, its much more about the football there generally.

Actually not strictly true my Aussie team the Newcastle Jets had Harry and Robbie Fowler apply for the then vacant job, both failed as Harry wanted more money :shh:
