No surprise he never worked in football again after that and was last seen driving London Cab.

He was quite a well thought of youth coach before taking that Orient gig. 

Not been able to get a sniff of a job since.  That job finished him. 

 

I've spoke to him during the World Cup. He's quite an engaging Chap to be honest.

1994–95 season in which Sitton had to work in six different roles within the club whilst on a youth coach salary. The squad size was cut in half and the club was on the verge of liquidation, with the PFA paying the players wages for several months whilst chairman Tony Wood tried to sell the club

 

Sounds like he'd be perfect under the current circumstances

:CEO:

Chris Turner with him too for 47 games and only won 7 games. Probably a nice bloke but manager material not in a million years.

 

To be fair to him the circumstances which he was working in were horrific.  He clearly cracked under the incredible pressire.

No wonder he wae stressed.

Enough to destroy anyone's career. 

Like many in the English game it's one strike and out. 

Yet some....somehow manage to from one job to another with no problem despite also never having done much.

 

In this game it's often about whether your face fits.

 

I dont know if hes a good or bad manager. We'll never know if he was a good or bad manager in the making as he never got a second chance...
