EspañolJOHN CARVER (FOOTBALLER)
'John William Carver' (born January 16, 1965 in Newcastle upon Tyne) is an English former footballer and coach. He was the assistant manager to Bobby Robson at Newcastle United. Following Robson's sacking in September, 2004, Carver was appointed caretaker manager and guided the team to a 3-0 win against Blackburn Rovers on September 11, 2004. Carver later dedicated the win to Bobby Robson.
John Carver had his contract terminated in September 2004 whilst acting as caretaker manager at Newcastle United with Graeme Souness opting to bring in his own backroom staff.
In July 2005 Leeds United appointed Carver as the club's head coach, replacing the departed Adrian Boothroyd who left the club to be the new manager of Watford.
In October 2005, a mere three months after joining Leeds United, Carver was linked with the vacant Hearts position as assistant to Bobby Robson who was hotly tipped to be appointed the clubs new manager.
In June 2006 Carver was again linked with another club, this time Carlisle United who wanted Carver to be their new manager, but after much thought and deliberation Carver decided to stay with Leeds who rewarded him in July for his loyalty by promoting him to the position of assistant manager, which had been felt vacant following the non-renewal of ex-assistant Sam Ellis in May 2006.
September 2006 saw Carver named caretaker manager at Leeds United, after Kevin Blackwell was fired following a disastrous start to the season. Carver celebrated a win in his first game in charge after beating Birmingham City 3-2. However a series of heavy defeats, culminating in a 5-1 drubbing by Luton Town, led to Leeds Chairman Ken Bates opting instead to recruit the Swindon management team of Dennis Wise and Gus Poyet. Carver left Leeds United on the 23 October 2006.
Carver has since teamed up with former boss Kevin Blackwell at Luton Town.
