Hi – sorry I haven’t updated much! I’ve been coaching in Boston and haven’t managed to catch a lot of football, just enough to catch up on the headlines and the United/Millwall games. I will be back shortly writing more regular articles but for now I wanted to just share a couple of videos I…

Here are a few of the pictures from the recent UK Tour 2013 for the young players from Cleveland, Ohio. A video will follow in the next few days. Full photo albums from the tour will be available on request if you were one of the visiting families. Please allow a couple of minutes for…
