Thought we boys in the ressies could do with some gossip Myself will be managing Rothwell Corinthians Res team and im not making any excuses { not my style } but i do have a big job to be getting on with . Last year they were relegated and moral / confidence dented badly but im well up for the challenge of rebuilding whether it be with the players that were low last season or 1/2 that may have to be recruited , which is easier said than done . Anyway i always go to win every match and it certainly will not be for the want of trying!!! The new teams entering rd2 make it stronger than it's ever been but im looking forward to it although i know it will be tough going , also rd1 looks intersting and in my time with Whitworths res last season it was very close and competive...Although the midweek games away to prem res teams are bloody hard when you are going there with the bare bones . But it's all good fun , any other news out there the ?

Its a good set up at Corinths and they deserve to be back in Res Div 1.
I believe there are alot of good young players over there so no doubt this will need to be bolstered with some experienced UCL players??
I take as per normal there will be a strong Corby connection??

Yes and No , will not be a big Corby connection apart from the two lads i took whitworths and are now coming to Corinth's , although they are looking to play / break into the 1st team the same said for the 1/2 players that may sign on from wboro { they approached me } . I talk honestly when i say I'm going to do the best support job that i can as per last season for Joe , but things clicked into place for the whits res team and the high finish in the end was something of a bonus although it was well deserved by the players . This season is a different kettle of fish with different types of players ( very very young ) and not so many really really good ones like whits have overall as a squad so it's a big job and thats not me playing anything down or trying to be clever . There is alot of work to do but there is potential there and young players will be given a good chance even at the expense of results AND MY OWN EGO !! Also i think any new manager at any level should out of respect and common sense have a good look at what's at a club already ? And if after a fair and satisfactory time it is still not up to scratch THEN look to bring 1/2/3 players into it , most probably as you say from Corby . What do you think ?

I spoke to manager of Irchester today, he told me they have 2 players from reserves last year!! And 16 players from the whole squad. There are some new signings on there web site, main reason he rang me !!! 'Promote the web site', he said and 'you can talk about anything thats on there!!! Does anyone know if cogenhoe have signed anyone i was told Harmon and Slinn have gone there, it was by an ex-player and not sure how true.

i know many cogenhoe reserve players are looking to play 1st team football this year, there goalkeeper is desperate to find a club, hopefully with all the success they bought last year, cogenhoe should give those a chance

i will pass over the message, had a couple of good keepers last year so competition for places will be tough, what with a great season you guys had last year.

He will be welcome, we have got holidays and a couple of injuries going forward so he will get a good chance in pre-season fixtures, and it's up to him then!

my thoughts entirely, which first team clubs in need of a keeper, cogenhoe reserve keeper is available and wants to play first team, he has asked me to put a word about on his behalf.

Just my opinion of course Patto is a nice lad and a decent keeper although I have to say is prone to the odd howler and can sometimes has a chip on his shoulder..... He's only young though so as with all keepers I would expect to get better as he gets older and play at a higher level.......certainly southern league!

SS give it a rest now, it's getting boring.
fan, send him down he will get a fair chance, Patto is a great young keeper and as cam says he can/will get better. We have hopefully agreed to have a specialist GK coach who was coaching up to Southern League Prem until recently (still tbc)
No-one is/should be guaranteed 1st team so if he fancies the challenge he can train with us and I will play him in some friendlies & then we will see.
