It's origins are the nitty gritty was what was left at the bottom of slave ships after the human cargo had been taken off..Innocent question - why?
Or sky... Or joining the police...Oh dear, I guess there goes my chance of commentating for the BBC

How do you know it wasnt this job?Anybody know what his last job was because it didnt last long? He was expected to join up with Chris Houghton again 3 weeks ago at Forest but he had already accepted a job opportunity that week but i cant remember what it was now.
Im happy he's here, we need that bit of experience.
I thought this.At last. Needed some experience with him. The new Tony Parkes

Wasn’t referring to every poster.Tbf, loads of us on here have been saying that Critch needs an experienced number 2 to help him...
I think it was a job up in Scotland although not 100% with that. It definitely wasn't Blackpool.How do you know it wasnt this job?
Taken from Clubs websiteWhat has happened to Michael Gerrity was he not Assistant Head?
I reckon you’re right but I welcome it.Not sure he was given a choice.
Northampton Academy I think although it might be cobblersHow do you know it wasnt this job?

This thread is laced with puns nowHe was a shoe in for the job, tbf. The sole candidate.
He gets sacked from every job he’s ever had in management. Another drain on the wage bill in an attempt to bail out a wrong appointment. This season has already gone, just a battle to stay up when it should have a minimum of play offs with the backing Critchley has had. What a bloody letdown he’s been.Blackpool Football Club is delighted to announce the appointment of Colin Calderwood as an Assistant Head Coach.
The vastly experienced 55-year-old becomes another valuable addition to Neil Critchley’s coaching staff at Bloomfield Road.
Promoted four times as a player with Swindon Town, a team he captained from a young age, Calderwood also represented the likes of Mansfield Town, Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa during his playing career, as well as Scotland internationally.
Upon retirement, Calderwood returned to Tottenham in a coaching role, before guiding both Northampton Town and Nottingham Forest to promotions as a manager.
A further promotion then followed as an assistant to Chris Hughton at Newcastle United in 2010, with the pair going on to work together at Birmingham City, Norwich City and Brighton & Hove Albion.
In recent years, Calderwood has also been an assistant to Steve Bruce at Aston Villa and had a stint managing Cambridge United in Sky Bet League Two.
Neil Critchley said:
“I’m pleased to welcome Colin to the Club. Colin’s experience and achievements in the game speak for themselves. We feel he has the perfect qualities to both complement and enhance the existing staff we have in place here at Blackpool.”
Colin Calderwood added:
“I’m absolutely delighted to join Blackpool. I’ve seen a lot of the division now because I’ve been scouting for a team in League One.
“I’m looking forward to working with Neil and the rest of the staff. I’ll be there to aid and assist in the best way possible and use my good experiences of football to help everybody within the Club.”
We had Grayson, Parkes & Thommo! So I don't have any problem with Calderwood's appointment.A big reason Grayson was successful here in 2007 was Parkes as his assistant. Lets hope that Calderwood has that same influence on Critchley.
Head of academy at Northampton but that wouldn’t start till 2021 so surprised if that the reason he didn’t Join back up with Houghton especially as allowed to walk into this job.Anybody know what his last job was because it didnt last long?

He may have the reputation as the archetypal dour Scot producing teams with little imagination or flair, but that may be just what is needed at the moment.
Don't count your chickens, yet!Well there's never a dull moment since Sadler took over.
He probably got a life ban at Forest after the Yeovil playoff game.Head of academy at Northampton but that wouldn’t start till 2021 so surprised if that the reason he didn’t Join back up with Houghton especially as allowed to walk into this job.
