Saw David Batty at ER, him and Matteo want to save Leeds United and take over as manager and assitant. MOT

Would love to see D. Batty back in the game. Not sure this rumour has any legs tho.

Batty didn't really like football when he was a player, not likely to become a manager, I don't think.

Batty had little interest in football as a player, so management is a no-go. From all accounts he prefers the quiet life Whitby way - and good luck to him.

Matteo is shortly to become a father so I'd imagine taking charge of LUFC and all the associated stress would not appeal to him one bit.

Batty save LUFC, don't make me laugh. He was the one who rejected the clubs offer to defer wages until the end of the season when the were in the brown stuff. He led a revolution that would have crippled the club! That's why he never played another game for Leeds
If he wanted to come back its only because he was skint

Matteo will be involved at Thorpe Arch next season, but not as manager. Still doing is badges as he still only at level 2

David Batty has no interest in managing Leeds. He has very little interest in football and quite happy with his present lifestyle. Why would he heap the pressures and stresses of football management upon himself? Also, does he have the relevant qualifications?
