Kevin Blackwell has been confirmed as Leeds United manager, nearly a week after being provisionally offered the job. A split in the board let to the offer been withdrawn (see link blelow - Leeds farce), and then re offered it yesterday evening.

The coach takes up his first managerial role, but has a wealth of knowledge on the coaching side, and will shortly become the most qualified coach in the country. More news when I hva it....
