@RussellLuke24@MemEnglandhokey A good read mate. It’s not a simple problem to try and solve but hope others can engage as well. There are some very good coaches at the top end of the national junior/senior squads… and in my eyes, some who are there solely on nepotism.
It’s 29 years to the day since England lost to Germany at Euro ‘96.
And as Wembley emptied that night, the BBC beautifully used ‘Walkaway’ by Cast for their closer.
This is possibly the greatest sad montage of all time. 💔

Coming back from 0:2 down after 8 minutes... @leedshockeyclub M1 showed great character to fight back and win 4:3 in an exciting game v Deeside Ramblers. Good floorshow for this goal!
Due to opposition having injuries @leedshockeyclub Mens 1 looking for a replacement fixture this Saturday. We have pitch at Weetwood at 3:30 and 2 umpires. Please get in touch. Ideally regional prem or above. 🏑
“I’ve come to play rock and roll for you, in the hope that one day all barriers will be torn down.”
35 years ago today, Bruce played in East Berlin to the biggest crowd he'd seen — a "winner-take-all" show, he wrote later, explaining: "Rock 'n' roll is a music of stakes. The higher they're pushed, the deeper and more thrilling the moment becomes."
And the rest is history.
