Jimbo 175 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Gullit resigns as Galaxy coach; Lalas out as well LOS ANGELES (AP) — Ruud Gullit has resigned as coach of the slumping Los Angeles Galaxy for personal reasons, and president/general manager Alexi Lalas also is out of a job, a source familiar with the situation says. The Galaxy are led by English star David Beckham, but are on a seven-match winless streak heading into their match Thursday with Chivas USA. Gullit will be succeeded on an interim basis by 37-year-old Cobi Jones, a first-year assistant who retired following last season after spending his entire career with the Galaxy, said the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the shakeup had yet been announced Monday. The 45-year-old Gullit signed a three-year contract last November, making him one of the MLS' higest-paid coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaythesouthernmag 0 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 More proof, if needed, what a shite coach Gullit is. Loosing 7 games in that league, I reckon even Souness could do a bit better than that And as for Beckham going to that shower of shit in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
