Do we need one? Anyone know how many other clubs in the division have one, including Luton and Cambridge?

I'm open minded. Just curious what the options are.

For me the best option would be for our goalkeepers to train with Hull for a few days a week (If Hull allow of course)

Or coach that could play as back up keeper if needed.

My concern is that McKeown is used to having a goalkeeping coach to train with. Will his performance drop off now that he doesn't have one?

It's clearly a specialist position for which most training - apart from general fitness work - doesn't particularly apply.

A coach who could cover would be ideal - but I think it's important that Macca has somebody he can talk to about
goalkeeping issues, because it's a distinct/different mindset for that position.

Perhaps Macca helping/coaching local league keepers would work too (if he fancied it)?

Yeah, he'll spend all his time smoking ciggies and playing on slot machines in the arcades now that Croudson has gone.

We should be trying to build as strong a relationship with them as possible. It's a bit annoying seeing them do so well but in reality it's potentially quite useful to us in terms of facilities, loan market etc

Would be nice to have a goalkeeping coach but I'd prefer a midfield coach

The best solution of all would be to get a goalkeeping coach who is also an assistant manager, since we don't have either. That's what Wrexham have done (Michael Oakes).

Tim Flowers have just left Kiddy. Not sure if he's gone anywhere else, would have excellent contacts.

I wonder if the fact that he will now be on his own so to speak has rung any bells with the management, I must admit I had not give it any thought, he will need someone in the know to bounce ideas off surely.

Don't think we need or warrant a goalkeeping coach, or a reserve keeper either. How much did Hedge take out of the budget last season for a couple of games played?

I think a decent backup keeper helps keep the first choice on his toes. Arthur, Fleming and Hedge are all senior keepers and solid reserves to McKeown.

Saying that, Mildenhall was very good and his backup was so shite we didn't even let him play in a pre season friendly!

On the assistant manager - would it be asking too much to have Stuart Watkiss as assistant AND youth team coach?

Has anyone heard what is happening with Doig and Thanoj ? I would expect Thanoj to have something else tied up elsewhere as the deadline for him was last week but I have not heard a thing on Doig.

Too be honest I think he could , how much time is taken up with the youth set up , Dave Moore is available too . Watkis has more experience and age on his side . In our position we can't waste money on rolls that can be doubled up .

Didn't Watkiss leave the Stockport assistant post due to ill health? I was under the impression when he came here that he was happy just to do the youth coaching because of this.
