Diito. Not many coaches could make such an obvious impact on a group of players as Fox.

Did Lindop get added for services to Pennine League?

Fox was peerless at getting great performances from players perceived to be average. He got success everywhere except Leeds and as a result you could say he was the "perfect coach".

A great coach who saved us from relegation in his first season in his second spell in charge, then took us to joint top of the league in a couple of seasons, only losing the Championship to full time Wigan on points difference. Complete legend, outspoken fiery character. A pity his biography I bought last year was crap

In what way do you feel it is "crap"? Like most sports autobiographies it was written in a style, which probably reflects the author, but "crap" is a tad unfair, imo. It certainly made interesting reading.
