    Kids should not be told they 'are not good enough' to play football for a grassroots team! Absolutely terrible. If you have too many players, don't take them. Do not stop children playing football because your ego means its more important the team wins than a child gets to play.

    Here are some simple 1v1 and 2v2 practices I’ve used this week. These were with an Under 8’s group, to help them explore hiding their intent. #SundayShare @SundayShare10

    At one of her lowest points during Chemo I bought tickets for Cara to see @edsheeran and give her something positive to look forward too. She’s finished treatment, we’ve danced to ‘Perfect’ as our first dance and now we’re off to the Etihad to enjoy it live! ❤️

    Here’s the basic session plan from a phase of play I delivered this week on Block 1 of the UEFA B licence, using Liverpool’s strategy vs Chelsea at home to defend from goal kicks 🧵 #SundayShare @SundayShare10

    So that’s UEFA B and C Coach Developer roles confirmed for 2022/2023 season. Absolutely delighted to get the opportunity to support coaches in their development again for this coming season and get back to doing something I genuinely love!

    Please encourage children to get outside and make memories though! It’s one day, not a lockdown, enjoy it! You’ll learn as much strategising over snow ball fights, running up and down hills with a sleigh and working together to build snowmen! ⛄️
    Contingency remote learning is now available online for @LaxeySchool and @DhoonSchool - links on website homepages and Facebook/Twitter feeds. Teachers will be online via remote learning gmail addresses 🇮🇲⬇️

    This may be some interesting food for thought, following a session I delivered this morning.

    The theory is we have one more week of radiotherapy to go. This time next week we will both be back in our bed, at our house. We will be able to move on and put this horrible thing behind us. We will get our lives back. I cannot wait ❤️

    To have the understanding and expertise to develop children at that level, yes it’s appropriate. For £25k p/a…no, it isn’t appropriate. That level of study, dedication and skill is equivalent to a vet or an architect. The pay should match it if we are to truly progress.
