Minnesota Thunder turn to Steve Cotterill

Former Burnley boss Steve Cotterill has landed a seven-week stint as manager of Minnesota Thunder according to the Daily Mail.

Quite how managers end up in these jobs is hard to fathom, but he will be looking to make a name for himself in the MLS.

Forty Four year old Cotterill is a well respected coach and manager but has been unable to find employment since he left Burnley by ‘mutual consent’ in Novenber 2007.

Thunder are struggling in the USL first division and former manager Amos Magee left the club with worries about form and future direction.
