Harris willing to help FAM

FORMER national coach Allan Harris is willing to help the FA of Malaysia and no, he isn't expecting a big, fat salary.
Harris, who handled the various national teams in 2000-2004, has been following Malaysian football's recent developments and just wants to give something back. "Football has been good to me and I just want to give something back to the game. Why not in Malaysia?" said Harris, who contacted Timesport from London yesterday. "I believe we can sit down and work things out. I am not looking at earning a big salary. FAM has been very good to me and the fans are also very supportive, so why not? "But FAM can't be looking at short term success as there must, at least, be a five-year plan. All parties must also come together if Malaysian football is to succeed."
Harris, a former Chelsea player, was in charge of the national Under-23 team that won the 2001 Sea Games silver in Kuala Lumpur and guided the senior team to the 2003 Tiger Cup (now Asean Championship) semi-finals after wins over Thailand and Singapore. His pedigree as a coach is unquestionable but is FAM willing to give him a second chance?
