EMBLETON EYES O'S RESURGENCE

Rookie boss gets used to the pressure...

EMBLETON EYES O'S RESURGENCE

IT’S been a massive learning curve for Leyton Orient rookie manager Ross Embleton this season – and he reckons keeping his cool shows he’s on the right path.

Embleton was thrust into the spotlight in the most difficult of circumstances last summer, taking the reins after hugely popular boss Justin Edinburgh died at the age of 49 after suffering a cardiac arrest.

Former Tottenham defender Edinburgh had just led the O’s to the National League title and brought a feelgood factor back to the club.

In the aftermath, Edinburgh’s assistant Embleton was appointed interim head coach as the O’s tried to maintain some semblance of normality. The 38-year-old made a decent fist of it before the club appointed Carl Fletcher as their new boss in October.

However, former Bournemouth midfielder Fletcher endured a miserable 29-day spell in charge before being sacked and Embleton again took the reins on a temporary basis. This time, though, there was a different ending as Embleton was appointed permanent boss in early January.
