I have just been offered the chance to help coach an England representative team I will only play a small role but quite exciting nevertheless. Stepping out of my coaching comfort zone, and all down to having a contact in the right place, but happy to see if I can help. Might even see some international travel, although the Maracana probably still out of my reach
cracking news that mate. Have a coin. Next time you get a chance to call to the continental, tell them John sent you.
Excellent mate, make the most of it and take loads of photos. Keep us posted and hoy a few photos one here.
Yes mate have my badges. I just got lucky with this one as a couple who were going to be involved cant now and someone involved put my name forward. I can get to St Georges park as it is local for the first few sessions so it works all round. Will just do my thing and see how it goes.
I dont want to put too much on here because I am always wary of my privacy online, not that I doubt anyone on here would be bothered. It is below the professional level, but still a good standard. It is 3 lions on the badge though mate and I will be proud to do just a little bit.
Late as usual, but well done Fell, wish you well, always knew, that you, unlike me, know what your talking about, and personally hope you are not too busy to carry on our enjoyable banter. Obviously things have moved on , but I had wondered if you had enjoy your walk along the beach on your visit, to Roker. I ask as it was gorgeous the following, Sunday morning around 6.30, and hoped at the time that you had enjoyed a similar experience.
Cheers mate. I certainly know no more than you or all others on here. I am still just a supporter when it comes to Sunderland who is more often than not blinded by hope and faith, and more often than not pig headedness. I did have a lovely walk along the beach. It is always a real treat for me. I live about as far from the sea as you can get in England so always take time to appreciate it. I will still be on here enjoying the opinions we all have. The coaching wont be a big time commitment at all in reality, just a few sessions every 6 weeks or so probably. It isnt elite level, but will be a great experience for me nevertheless.
