First few games were excellent.
Remember the Roar comments where Rado was the brains of the title winning team, it's probably pretty clear that he holds himself as being more than an assistant
I know we're all stunned etc but it is fair to Rado to point out that he publicly said (in the past) that he did not want to be a head coach and saw himself as an assistant, and he was comfortable with that. I understand this was the basis on which he was hired to WPX. And as a side comment, his short spell as head coach at Brisbane Roar which ended in a disater, was probably a factor in his current stance on not wanting to be a head coach.
