Hello. Long time, no see. You'll be pleased to know that life is now moving on, as is Les Rosbifs.
From now on, I will be moving the site to the slightly catchier URL of: lesrosbifs.net It's a mess
at the moment, for which I can only apologise. I will be archiving bits and bobs [...]
A regular update of snippets, news and views involving Les Rosbifs past and present. MOVE: Saunders
saunters to Levante George Saunders, the inspiration for this website way back in April 2009, moved
on from Villarreal 'C' in ther Tercera Division of the Spanish League late last summer, moving on
to Group 6 rivals UD Levante 'B', [.
Jamie Phoenix, a man who epitomises everything Les Rosbifs stands for, has finally reappeared on
the international football scene in far-flung Albania. Phoenix, who has a string of clubs in
England and abroad to his name, including Altrincham, Stafford Rangers, Bolton Wanderers (perhaps)
and Manchester City (perhaps), is currently on trial with Superliga side KS [.
Pennant playing for struggling Zaragoza...Smith injured with Real Union...Ex-Chelsea man Simmonds
continues exodus from Hoddle's Academy...Ex-Hammers legend Tommy Taylor joins Torry Army... Spain
has been a favourite haunt of English footballers and coaches over the years but those present this
season have experienced some indifferent fortunes over the course of the first half of the season.
Perhaps the most interesting move during the Les Rosbifs hiatus is that of former Aston Villa and
Queens Park Rangers manager John Gregory to Israeli side Maccabi Ahi Nazareth. Ahi, who were
languishing at the bottom of the Premier League at the time of the appointment in early December,
signed Gregory in an attempt to improve [.
There is some four months worth of news to sift through, but we'll make a start with a couple of
ex-Norwich City men. Ian Henderson has joined Colchester United this week, having recently played
for Ankaragucu. Henderson never really settled in Turkey, despite having a girlfriend from the
country, and he left the club by [.
It has been a while but Les Rosbifs is now back in action. I will be looking at posting regular
updates on the fortunes of the Englishmen playing and coaching abroad, as well as updating the
all-important list, which is in a state of disrepair since I last worked on it in mid-August.
Please, if you [.

behind-the-scenes stories and events of his team's Europa League and PepsiDeild campaigns. If you

Some great news coming from Sweden concerning the Englishmen plying their trade in the Allsvenskan.
Former Portsmouth and Kidderminster Harriers striker James Keene has propelled his Elfsborg side to
the top of the league, while ex-Millwall man Kenny Pavey has played his part in cementing AIK in
2nd spot.
Bad luck for Matt Derbyshire, whose permanent deal at Olympiacos in Greece has got off to a bad
start. The former Blackburn Rovers man picked up an abdominal injury during the pre-season and is
out until sometime next month, as he has needed surgery. We wish him a speedy recovery. It's three
games and two points [.
Columbus Crew are the best team in the MLS at the moment, having won their last five matches in the
MLS, being unbeaten in their last eight and conceding just four goals in their last eight matches.
For Andy Iro it has been a successful time, despite only playing in six league matches. His stock

Despite the post below being fact as of yesterday afternoon, it was confirmed by TPS Turku last
night that Wayne Brown will be remaining at the Finnish club until 17th October. It was a surprise
announcement, as Brown had returned to the UK and was about to take a fortnight off before
returning to action.
TPS Turku bade ‘farewell' to Wayne Brown this week after the Fulham midfielder finished his
summer loan spell at the club. The attacking midfielder, who is hoping to break into the first team
of the Premier League club this season, made a very positive impression on Finnish football,
scoring an impressive six goals in 19 [.
