Anyway, remember John Spencer, who played with the club in the 1990's? He is about to be named the head manager of my local club, the Portland Timbers, who will begin play in the American MLS next season. He played in the MLS from 2001 to 2004, and then has been in the assistant manager ranks for various MLS clubs since then. He has been an assistant with the MLS Houston Dynamo since 2007, and they have won 2 championships during that time. He today resigned from the team "to pursue other opportunities," and it has been a badly-kept secret for months now that he has been Portland's top choice. A few players confirmed to the media that he is about to be named our head coach.
A pic of Spenny then...

... and now ... (he's the short one!)

Cheers, all. Hope to begin contributing again this season.
