Overview
- Watford announced that head coach Ed Still has left the club, with first-team coach Karim Belhocine also departing in the same move.
- Still was hired on a two-and-a-half-year deal on February 9 after Javi Gracia resigned, yet his tenure lasted less than three months.
- The team won three of 15 league matches under Still and slid to 16th in the Championship by season’s end.
- His final match was a 4-0 home loss to Coventry City, the fifth straight defeat in a run that saw Watford concede 16 goals and score once.
- Watford said it will begin recruiting a new head coach, which would be the club’s 15th permanent appointment since 2019 and the 12th since the end of the 2020–21 season.
