David Weir the new Sheffield United manager

[Eggs]

...lots of rumours on this one. I think he is very highly thought of at Everton but hopefully he wont be coming back any time soon for obvious reasons.

BBC reporting in the last hour it's almost done too.

I can see Neville going to United to take up some position or other and Stubbs being the only one left of the *internal candidates*.

A week's a long time in football!

Unsworth is already assistant, so bringing in Wier is a no brainer. Long may the Everton contingent and Sheffield United continue.

I wonder what capacity though? It'll be fascinating seeing how Moyes sets up his backroom team. Obviously Round will be his #2. You'd think he'd have to have some United link at the top table to keep the natives happy.

Got a lot of time for Weir, wish him all the best and hope he's a success at the Blades if he is the new manager.

[AaronTheBlue]

good luck to him

 

[Librarian]

Congrats to David Weir, and good luck to him.

Good luck to him, that will be a tough division to get out of with Wolves, Brentford and a few other decent sides in it. Add in Rotherham will throw silly money at it and Bradford have their Wembley money to spend and Weir has a job on to get promoted.

 

[AaronTheBlue]

Might get some game time for the likes of Lundstram, Duffy, and a few others if he takes them on loan

 

[micknick]

Good luck Davie, I hope you earn your stars and come back one day.

 

[Bilko]

Go on Davie ,show that spanner Wilson how to do it !!.

Great professional one of Walter smiths best buys, good luck to him - maybe a future Blues manager in the making I hope Irvine & Stubbs, and big Dunc, stay to keep the continuity of the back room staff to mix with the Martinez set up of his backroom staff.
