Leroy Rosenior Biography

Leroy Rosenior is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on August 24, 1964 in Balham, United Kingdom. Leroy Rosenior MBE, born 24 August 1964, is a professional pundit and football coach. His former clubs include Fulham, Queens Park Rangers, Bristol City, West Ham United and West Ham United. Rosenior was a youth international from England, and then he switched to Sierra Leone to play for the national football team.

Rosenior, who had been appointed Torquay United’s head coach by Keith Curle on 17 May 2007, was reportedly fired after a mere 10 minutes. This made him the longest-serving manager in English football history. It was also the time that Torquay United were purchased by a local consortium, which made Colin Lee their chief executive. He then appointed Paul Buckle, a former Gulls player and assistant manager at Exeter City, as manager.

Rosenior works as a presenter and pundit on G-Sports, an African Pay-Per-View channel, and for the BBC’s coverage of the 2008 Africa Cup of Nations. Other punditry work has included BBC Radio 5 Live as well as The Football League Show and The League Cup Show on BBC television. He also appeared alongside fellow ex-pro Graeme Murty and presenter James Richardson in the BBC South, BBC South West and BBC West local Monday night football round-up show, Late Kick Off.

Rosenior is a leading anti-racism campaigner in British football and travels the country working as an ambassador for the Show Racism The Red Card campaign. In 2018 he was awarded an MBE for his work in tackling discrimination in football and elsewhere in society.

He was appointed first coach of Shrewsbury Town’s team in March 2006. He also served as an assistant manager to Gary Peters. In June 2006, he left to succeed Martin Allen at Brentford. He had succeeded Martin Allen 20 years ago, when he was appointed as a substitute for Allen in the 1986 League Cup final. After 16 consecutive games without a win in which Rosenior was unable to score, he left the club five months later. This culminated with a 4-0 defeat at home to Crewe Alexandra.

He represented England at the Under-16 and Under-21 level, but he later switched allegiances to the Sierra Leone national soccer team. He was awarded one cap for Sierra Leone in total, in the 1994 African Nations Cup qualifying match against Togo in Conakry. Togo pulled out of the competition later.

Rosenior went back to non-league management of Merthyr Tydfil, before moving to Torquay United in July 2002. He was there from January 2006 to manage the club until his departure by mutual consent following a 3-1 defeat to Rochdale. He led Torquay to promotion into Football League One in his second season, but they were unable to maintain that status. They were relegated on the final day. Two of the club’s most talented players, Adebayo Akinfenwa and Alex Russell, were forced to leave Football League Two upon their return. Leroy left the club after languishing at the bottom of the league for half of the season.

He was scheduled to take charge of the Sierra Leone national side for a friendly against Leyton Orient in May 2007, which they won 4–2. It was announced in May 2007 that he would take charge of Sierra Leone in their upcoming African Nations Qualifiers.
