PRESTON were today in the dark over reports linking manager David Moyes with Brian Kidd's old job at Manchester United.
"We only know what is in the papers today," said Derek Shaw, the Preston deputy chairman.
"Obviously it is very flattering when someone is connected with Manchester United but we don't know what the situation is.
"David is doing a very good job here and we are delighted with him.
"Obviously names always get mentioned when vacancies occur.
"That is how the game is."
Moyes, who is highly regarded in the game, took over from Gary Peters last season and this term has taken Preston to fourth in the table despite only spending £25,000 in the transfer market.
