We asked you for your thoughts on Watford appointing Ed Still as their new head coach and there are more than a few concerned fans in the replies.
Here is what you had to say about the Hornets' new boss:
Lee: Hardly any point in appointing yet another coach this season. We’re not in danger of promotion or relegation and it would have been a chance for [Charlie] Daniels to try to mould the young squad.
The appointment of Ed Still seems a hasty decision. Yet again another punt in the dark with a coach with no Championship experience (indeed no English coaching experience). Good luck to him and hope he's still here at the start of next season.
Ian: We had a new, young head coach last year and the club’s owners decided that Tom Cleverley no longer fitted the bill. I don’t think they really have a clue!
Rob: The squad is young and full of promise. If a young and enthusiastic manager can get them playing to their strengths then we can still have a decent end to the season I reckon.
Richard: A two-and-a-half-year contract for an unknown family member of a failed Championship manager? We all know he won’t be there by the end of the season.
Despite being a season ticket holder for almost 40 years, and I know they've already had my money, I'll be voting with my feet and staying away from Vicarage Road, and I won't renew my ST until the clowns in charge have gone.
Paul: Until 12 hours ago I didn’t even know Will Still had a brother. Looking at his previous record in management, which is very limited – his win ratio is awful.
Nothing about this appointment can inspire the fans let alone the players. Not his fault, but our club takes one step forward, two steps back constantly.
Stew: A low cost appointment – easy and cheaper to fire come April. Unspectacular track record. An underwhelming appointment.
Ian: Absolutely absurd appointment! We shouldn’t be in this position in the first place, because if the board would have backed Javi Gracia with the recruitment he wanted in the window just gone then he would still be in charge.
I do fear for our season now if I am honest. No disrespect to Ed Still but he has absolutely NO experience in English football never mind the Championship. I give us six weeks before we are looking for manager number four of the season.
Robbie: I can only imagine this will go badly.
It doesn't matter who is in charge until we resolve a fundamental conflict, where the club exclusively invest in young players for resale value, while also demanding the incumbent manager challenges for promotion.
Maybe they'll hang on to this one for a bit longer because a young, inexperienced unknown will be easier for them to bully into putting said young players in the shop window.
