*Coleman rules out return*
Former manager Chris Coleman has ruled out making a return to Fulham following the sacking of Lawrie Sanchez.
Sanchez, who replaced Coleman in the Craven Cottage hot-seat last April, was axed after winning just four of his 24 games at the helm.Former manager Chris Coleman has ruled out making a return to Fulham following the sacking of Lawrie Sanchez.
But Coleman is not looking to return to the London club despite doubts existing over his own future at current club Real Sociedad.
The Welshman joined the Spanish second division club in the summer but saw the president who appointed him resign in November.
"It gave me no pleasure to see Lawrie Sanchez sacked from my old job at Fulham last week," he told the Daily Mail.
"As managers, we all get the sack sooner or later. But it's never nice and I remember it hurt to be shown the door at Craven Cottage.
"Everybody put in so much hard work to get them where they are now. It would be a real shame to see them slide through the trapdoor.
"When I look back, the time had come for me to leave Fulham. I'd been there for the best part of 10 years, (coach) Steve Keane had been there eight and we couldn't go much further doing things the way we were, not investing much money in the squad.
"I didn't want to leave at such a critical point in the season. But we ran into our first really bad patch of form in four years and we were out of the door.
"I don't know who they will appoint but it won't be me."
