Former Taffs Well boss Mark Sampson joins Stevenage coaching staff

Former Taffs Well and England Women’s boss Mark Sampson has joined the coaching staff of Stevenage.

The Cregiau born defender returns to coaching, having left his role as England Women’s manager. 

He began his managerial career with WFAW Championship outfit Taffs Well, where he spent a total of two years. 

During his time at Rhiw’r Ddar, he managed to guide the club to safety after they looked destined for the drop.

His playing career saw him play for Bridgend Town, Cardiff Corinthians, Taffs Well and Pentyrch Rangers. 

Commenting on his appointment, manager Dino Mammria said, “We are fully aware of Mark’s past issues with the FA. I have known Mark for a long time and we have discussed what happened at length. 

“I am convinced of his character and skill set. He will be a big asset to the Club moving forward.”

Mark’s brother Craig is the manager of FAW Championship South side Caerau Ely.
