Was it not the case that leighton rated Ryan Esson over David Preece a few seasons back only for Preece to make the no.1 slot his own after several cock ups by Ryan
(I was always concerned that Esson was often in the Aberdeen Uni Union playing pool on the friday night before a home match)
Leighton was (and probably still is) a fine goalkeeper but that doesnt mean he is a good coach.
Those that Can do, those that Cant, teach etc etc
Cant say I really rated Meldrum but maybe he is a good teacher
