So sad to hear the passing of Jon today. A Team Solent legend in my eyes. Happy coaching people of any ability, it felt like he just loved the game.
So approachable for me as a young coach too. Taught me many a lesson.
Thanks Gitto, Rest in Peace Gaffer ๐

Team mates love him, managers love him. No ego to his game. Can run further than most, tactical aware in mutliple positions, technically sound.
Any young player looking for a role model, look no further than Milner.
All I heard today was about the chances we missed. Yes we missed loads, meaning we created loads.
And yet no one talks about the team goal? Shame that!

Footballs biggest challenge has always been how to stem the onset of mental health issues in their young & often โforgottenโ talents.
Some are trying, some need to try harder!!
In my experience the released player needs more support than the signed.

He seems to genuinely care in a sport much maligned for not putting the person 1st. Take care of your own & the rest will follow.
