A former Preston North End loanee from 2012 has taken up his first job in senior management - and it’s not what you expect.
Former Preston North End defender Jamie McAllister has landed his first role as a number one in senior football management. The 46-year-old has been named the new manager of Duli Pengiran Muda Mahkota, a club that plays in the Singapore Premier League. Lilywhites fans might not remember McAllister that well as he was only at Deepdale for a short stint. He played four games in the 2011/12 season and was signed when Graham Westley was in charge, PNE finished 15th that year.
McAllister also appeared 144 times for Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership, and also featured for the likes of Yeovil Town and Exeter City in England. His other clubs include Livingston, Hearts, the Queen of the South and Indian Super League side Kerala Blasters. Since retiring in 2016, McAllister turned to coaching and worked as an player-coach under David James at Kerala Blasters.
