Roar Unveal
Top Kop Coach
Craig Johnston today
Queensland Roar have annouced that Craig Johnston is set to become the new coach.
Earlier today Queensland Roar officials named the former Liverpool legend Craig Johnston to fulfill the job last filled by Frank Farina.Craig is famous as a player, scoring the winning goal against rival Everton in the 1986 FA Cup final. "This will be a big challenge for me as a person to perform well for all the Roar Fans", Craig stated in his opening conference.
This will be his first managerial position of a professional club, after securing several UEFA coaching licenses while back in Europe.
Miron Bleiberg has been named as assistant coach to Craig and will 'guide' Mr Jonhston should the need arise. Miron has told Fox Sports that the team will begin a transitional stage now, with many players coming in and out of the club before the 2008/09 season begins in a few months. "Expect to find us in Asia as we find the best ways to make this club excel," the normally outspoken man claimed.
