Blackburn Rovers have approached Manchester United for permission to speak to their U21 manager Warren Joyce about the vacant managerial position at Ewood Park, according to Sky sources. Rovers are searching for a new boss after Paul Lambert decided to step down following the final Sky Bet Championship game of the season against Reading. Neil Warnock has been linked with the position following his decision not to extend his stay at Rotherham United, but it appears Blackburn have now turned their attention to Joyce. Joyce, 51, made over 600 appearances as a midfielder with Bolton, Preston, Plymouth Argyle, Burnley and Hull. He had a spell as player-manager with the Tigers before departing the club in 2000 and he also spent two seasons in Belgium as coach of Royal Antwerp. Joyce moved on to Manchester United in 2008 and managed the U21 side along with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer before taking sole charge in December 2010, guiding them to their third U21 Premier League title in four seasons this term. He recently survived the Academy reshuffle at Old Trafford that saw U18 manager Paul McGuinness depart the club, but his future could be placed in doubt when Jose Mourinho takes over as manager, as expected.
Sorry Marv "Blackburn have made an approach to speak to warren Joyce" Is that better? Anything else you need help with?
Just does my head in when the title of the thread and link give no clue to what it's about. Usually I end up clicking the link to find I'm not interested in the slightest, then this time it's the other way round
****in' hell Marv, I'd love to give you ten Likes for this^ ......... ''lifes too short for clicking unnecessary links'' .............Big Vern is no longer The Man, it's YOU Marv!
Think of the suspense and all the possibilities that it could be and the endless thoughts you have whilst it loads up.:....it's hardly hard work
