  The Jakarta Post - The Journal of Indonesia Today
Withe, a former striker for English Premiership side Aston Villa, had been rumored to be heading to Vietnam to coach the national team before he signed a four-year contract with Indonesia in March.
Withe said he accepted Indonesia's offer over those from other countries because of the tremendous desire and commitment on the part of the PSSI, the support of the people and most importantly the support of soccer fans for their teams.
Withe also recalls that when he played for Southport he was paid 25 pounds per week, while during the peak of his career as Aston Villa's top striker he received 600 pounds a week, or up to 50,000 pounds plus bonuses per year.

As 'the last piece of the jigsaw', Peter Withe's part in Aston Villa's first league title in 71 years was immense.
Withe had rejected Leeds, his beloved Everton, and four unnamed clubs (two from London and two foreign ones) to join Villa, swayed in no small part by what Saunders had to say.
Withe was a sight to see: a scrubland of beard on his lower face, straight-backed, rangy and an addictive talker on the field.

Withe assumed control of Indonesia in the wake of what was an encouraging 2004 Asian Cup campaign for the populous nation.
The strategy went something like this: Withe and his management team were to identify all the players plying their trade in Indonesia and, once that massive task was complete, would set about improving basic techniques and introducing new training methods in a bid to help the chosen few progress.
Despite their initial willingness to cooperate with Withe's farsighted vision, not to mention several very tangible signs of improvement such as the graduation of ultra-talented youth players into the national squad and radically improved fitness levels, the PSSI are already starting to twitch nervously in their seats.

Withe, whose goal brought Europe's premier trophy to Villa 15 years ago, believes Collymore's goal in the win over Coventry was just the tonic he needed as he aims to become a Euro star himself in Tuesday's UEFA Cup return with Steaua Bucharest.
Withe, now chief scout at Villa, was the last player to score 20 league goals in a season for the club - but he knows from his own experiences what Collymore has been going through since his £7million summer move from Liverpool.
Withe said: "I got a fair few goals for Villa and as a striker you want to score in every game although that's impossible - but I've had what Stan has had, when you wonder where the next goal is coming from.

Kolev was replaced by former Thailand coach Peter Withe after the Asian Cup with the Indonesian Football Association (PSSI) hoping that the Englishman could turn their promising side into South East Asia’s top team.
Withe duly led his new charges to the Asean final in January 2005 with a memorable 4-1 victory against Malaysia but once again they failed to deliver when it mattered, going down 5-2 on aggregate in the final against Singapore.

The focal point of a strong offense, Withe scored 17 goals and added 7 assists in 22 games to lead the Timbers to first place in their division and a tie for the best record in the league at 16-6.
He was sacked due to his side's inability to go past the first round of the ASEAN Football Championship, the tournament which he previously won with Thailand in 2000 and 2002, then finished as the runner-up with Indonesia in 2004.
Withe's time in charge was not at all successful, winning only one game out of thirteen in the league, and he was replaced after just 105 days at the helm by the the club's youth team coach Joe Kinnear, partly as a result of player complaints to the directors about Withe's style of man-management.

My particular interest now lies in whether Peter Withe, first brought to our attention by Donato, should be included or not, as my mentor, Karl Tufuoh, is saying.
But now Karl argues that he didn’t mention Withe’s name because he is not a South African as Donato says, but an English of English parents.
And so if Withe is an English, they would have been the first to say so, especially with the patriotic nature of the English people in mind.
