    The only one with any real pedigree is Jackett and I can't imagine him working under these conditions.

    If has the needed badges and could be tempted from domestic bliss in Canada I think Jay de Merit fits.

    The money would be attractive as he only ever had two good contracts

    I've always thought Robert Page could end up being a successful manager. Maybe not quite our level?

    Ex hornet or not, they would have no say while Giraldi is still at the club.

    We could employ him as the specialist motivator before games. He and his lovely wife won't want to leave the wilds of Canada for us.

    You must be joking. He was crap at Celtic. Completely clueless.
    A great player for us, but as a manager, no way.

    The only way you could get him to step up is if you dangled a burger on a wire above his head.

    Too much control from owner, bit of a strait-jackett?

    I like Andy Hessenthaler. Would never wish the Watford job on him.

    I'm sure they can encourage him to wear a toupee and some fake tan

    Maybe Cassetti has completed some coaching badges?

    Grit, guts and determination don't win you matches as a manager.

    As opposed to tactical nowse, experience, the ability to make tough decisions on and off the pitch, motivation skills and attention to fine detail. Amazed that people like Hessenthaler are being put forward. Great servant to the club but managerial material for us. No. All this codswallop that genuine fans would welcome the Championship is reflective of a losing mentality reflected in the squad. We should try to be the best we can be, innovative and staying in the top flight. GT ticked all those boxes.

    Agreed. Save the Hessenthaler's, Mooney's and Robbo's for if AFC Watford get formed.

    It'll be someone we've never heard of who will be sacked at some point next season. The cycle will repeat it's self.

    It would probably have to be Jackett, Gibbs or maybe Hessenthaler for me, as they are all I can think of who are experienced in coaching or management and could possibly be realistic targets.

    Of course there is also Malky McKay who could do a job, but my favourite choice Sean Dyche. I know John Barnes has experience, but lets face it he is a crap manager and I would not touch him with a barge pole.

    I know there others, like that CB from about 10 years back who I think is an assistant somewhere, but for the life of me his name escapes me, there are also one or two who cut their teeth in coaching whilst with us, was there someone called Johnson?

    I'm sure there others I have forgotten, can anyone fill the blanks for me?

    Matt Jackson was operations Manager at Wigan
    Johnny Jackson assistant Manager at Charlton
    Leigh Bromby Director of Football operations at Huddersfield

    With under 60 WFC appearances between then, none will be anyway near the lists of future WFC employees!

    Thanks anymore, like who is the CB I'm thinking of, and the guy I have called Johnson who was at Bristol City, I think, for a while?

    Matt Johnson was allegedly a centre-back, you aren't thinking about Keith Millen are you he was at Bristol City!, also Lee Johnson recently sacked at Bristol City was at WFC although I don't think he played a first team game!
     
  30. The Voice of Reason

    The Voice of Reason First Team Captain

    That's who I was thinking of, Keith Millen who was the CB and the other one was Lee Johnson, but I don't think he was ever a player, however he was on the coaching staff in some capacity I believe?

    Lee’s dad Gary was a youngster with us and then a youth team coach
