Considering our recent history of morison hudson riza even whitehead for a few games it is very difficult to believe shaw won't be our manager fairly soon. Maybe even v his old team Coventry on new years day if we lose the next 2 games!

Also says this on official statement.

Official statement says he has been Canada coach in 2023 also but that's not on wiki that I could see.

Re: New Appointment

Some may say I'm being too negative but on the face of it its a pretty poor appointment for our number 2. Considering how poor the coaching staff is.

Apart from a brief spell with Canada on the coaching staff for a couple of weeks looks like he has only done youth football since 2013?

He's obviously friends with riza but I can't say I'm thrilled Watford youth coaching set up is now our first team set up.

I was thinking the same. Couldn't Riza do with someone with more experience of coaching at this level, like Plymouth have done with Mike Phelan?

Assistant to the assistant coach. Obviously.

Re: New Appointment

Assistant to the assistant coach. Obviously.

Deputy Assistant to the assistant coach

The one positive thing about this is he isn’t Riza

So he can’t be any worse than we currently have, when he takes over in January

So a bit like what Gareth Keenan was to David Brent?
