Leyton Orient have appointed former Barnet coach and Wycombe Wanderers player Danny Senda as their new assistant head coach. Senda joins head coach Ross Embleton, first-team coach Dean Brill and player\/coach Jobi McAnuff in the set-up at the O’s.<\/p>\n
There have been a lot of changes in the coaching set-up at Leyton Orient in the last year. Not all of the decisions were forced while some were shrouded in tragic circumstances.<\/p>\n
Following their promotion from the National League in 2018\/19, Justin Edinburgh was set to lead them in League Two before his sad passing<\/a> last summer. Current head coach Embleton took over<\/a> temporarily before Carl Fletcher<\/a> was brought in to kick start a new era.<\/p>\n Fletcher, though, lasted just five league matches before it was decided his appointment wasn’t working<\/a>. After another caretaker spell in charge, Embleton took the job on a permanent basis<\/a>, with Danny Webb and Jobi McAnuff by his side.<\/p>\n However, Webb left the club<\/a> suddenly earlier in the season and former goalkeeper Brill, who had retired due to injury, was appointed in Webb’s role.<\/p>\n The addition of Senda looks to have completed the rebuild of the coaching staff in the way Embleton wanted it and, with pre-season set to start soon, Senda has plenty of time to get integrated with the squad.<\/p>\n As a player, Senda made over 300 appearances for Wycombe, who were promoted to the Championship<\/a> last night, having come through the youth academy at Southampton<\/a>. He went on to have spells at Millwall, Torquay United, Bristol Rovers and Barnet before becoming a coach at the latter, having had a brief stint as an academy coach at Brentford.<\/p>\n Speaking to the Leyton Orient club website, Senda explained what he feels his strengths are as a coach and how he plans to support Embleton in his role.<\/p>\nWhat Was Said?<\/h3>\n
