Services to football - Dario Gradi

Looks like the last season as manager of Crewe. Is going to undergo a 12 month handover with the head of the Acadamy.

24 years overseeing a small club, consistently punching above their weight, and through their structured academy have produced a collection of fine players at top level. Lets hope Varney is the next one.

Good article with the man taking over
