Without question, THE very best in academy coaching I’ve had the pleasure of working with and getting to know.
A huge loss to any academy!
Brilliant coach, mentor and friend.
Wish you all the very best my mate for what’s next! They’re incredibly lucky to have you ⚽️❤️
5 Things You’ll Never Regret as a Coach:
1. Prioritizing culture over results.
2. Developing players into leaders.
3. Setting clear expectations and standards.
4. Leading by example, even when it’s hard.
5. Taking time to reflect and grow.
Do it the right way.
Every time. 🏆

After much consideration I’ve decided to leave my role as Youth Development Phase Lead Coach at Swindon Town. There are some amazing people working at that football club. I wish those guys the very best in the future. This has been an incredibly hard decision…..

More than that, I’ll miss the players! There are some fantastic young players coming through the academy and they all have a bright futures ahead of them. Growing connections with them all has been a brilliant experience and one I’ll look back with great pride.

Amazing day at Fratton Park! Important point today for Pompey.
Clean sheet against a top side in Sheffield United is a big step. They defended set pieces incredibly well.
Thankyou @Pompey for the warm welcome today
Another point against one of the best sides in the league. Performance of the season so far, for me.
No wins on the board but to pick up 4 points from THAT opening run of fixtures… 3 points incoming.
Big love to Awfs, @Danny_Rose7 & @symons_kit for a great afternoon.
