As long suspected, I can confirm that Hue Menzies is a US citizen. He's making his WWC debut with Jamaica right now. http://www.caribbeantoday.com/sport...has-a-krush-for-the-beautiful-game-in-us.html Despite spending his adult life in the U.S. and holding American citizenship, Menzies identifies primarily with the land of his childhood. Right now my passport says U.S. passport, he explained laughing. But culturally-wise I'm Jamaican.

Kelly Lindsey ends up in England as head of performance for Lewes FC. Sounds like she is serving the role for both men (7th tier) and women (2nd tier). https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...anistan-i-had-to-build-trust-with-the-players
Yes, he'll be doing both now that the Olympics are over from this first international window until the end of the NWSL season. The Netherlands have 2 more UEFA qualifiers in the October FIFA window and 1 in later November (on the 26th), so the two jobs will only overlap through the October window although if Portland do end up in the Championship, there are only a few days in between. His assistants have to be helping him out in this transition.
