It's perfectly sensible for GH to have travelled to Australia in-person to meet coaches there first. It's a statement of intent that he is taking the matter seriously, rather than conducting proceedings via Zoom (etc). It would be also foolish to completely shut out options from the UK , so it makes sense to interview people here even if there is a preference for Aussie options. No doubt all candidates would have been told that Leeds will make a decision after completing all the interviews; this is pretty standard in recruitment even if you have a preferred choice in mind. No doubt all the candidates will have been asked how soon they are able to take up the position, and to keep the club updated in case these realities change in the meantime.I don't expect any of this means we're destined to get a UK-based coach, or that an Aussie can only be in place for next year. These things take time, so we need to be patient.
