Timeline
David Robert Merrington (born 26 January 1945) is an English former professional footballer, manager and commentator.
He served as a caretaker manager at Sunderland in 1978, and Leeds United in 1980.
Merrington was a brief caretaker manager for Sunderland following the departure of Jimmy Adamson in 1978, and in 1980 he again took over from Adamson as caretaker manager (for 1 game only) at Leeds United.

A year later he returned to the club as a coach under next manager Dave Jones but left again three years later after Jones was succeeded by Glenn Hoddle.
He was Premiership Manager of the Month in April 1996, his only full season in management.
Despite securing Southampton's top flight status on goal difference, he was dismissed on 14 June 1996 and succeeded by Graeme Souness.
