' RUSSELL SLADE '
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=155851
Russell Slade is one of very few managers around to have gone into the profession without having a career as a professional player behind him.
Slade was working as a PE teacher and played for Notts County reserves before starting his coaching work at the club.
He worked his way up at Meadow Lane from assistant youth coach to assistant manager and then had a spell as caretaker manager during the 1994/95 season.
After taking his first permanent managerial roles in non-league football, he returned to the Football League and had two caretaker spells in charge of Sheffield United before being named as manager of Conference side Scarborough in 2001 – leading them to the FA Cup fourth round in 2004.
Back in the Football League he lost successive play-off finals – with Grimsby in League Two in 2006 and with Yeovil in League One a year later.
He went on to save Brighton from relegation before taking charge of Leyton Orient in April 2010.
