On 7th of July 2009 Steve ''Macca'' McManaman was appointed as a manager of Oxford United.
Fans are really happy to see an english football legend to join the club.McManaman has told
the fans that he is delighted to be given a chance to work here and he promised promotion.Also he told the media:
-I don't think i'll buy a lot players for now,the squad is good enough to promote.There will be 2 or 3 new signings not more.
All the players were content to welcome Macca to the club.Or maybe not all of them...
McManaman released left midfielder Alex Rhodes because of the high wages the player is paid. Also Steve terminated link with Brackley Town
On 8th of July McManaman made an offer to Luton Town for Tom Craddock.Macca said:
- I really want to sign this player.I must say that he is league 1 class and would be a real threat to the oppositon defence.
