Coaching career[]
Taking charge of Ilocos United of the Philippines Football League in 2017, his first time in charge of a fully professional team, Gillan brought in many young players for the upcoming season.[2] By November that year, he had departed the club,[3] with the Malaysian media dispersing rumors that he would be head coach of local side Sarawak for the 2018 season.[4] Eventually, the Australian trainer signed a two-year contract to lead Sarawak on 2 December,[5] doing his first training session with their squad two days later.[6]
