As a reminder, he got the job after relegating Burnley to the Championship. 👏📉

What a decision it turned out to be. 🧠

Your circle:
Your ⭕️ should defend you in your absence. Your ⭕️ should be the ones clapping for you when no one else does. Your ⭕️ should be pushing you. Your ⭕️ should be proud of you, not jealous. Your ⭕️ should want to see you win.”

We cannot ignore our swimmers voices. They are the next generation and we cannot let them down like this. @GlosCC must make every effort to reopen GL1 and Oxstalls as soon as possible before the consequences of this closure are beyond repair.

@RichardGrahamUK @KenGoodwinITV

[Gloucester City Swimming Club @Glos_Swim]

Following the shocking closure of GL1 yesterday we as a club are united and are in no way looking to disband. We are all working really hard to find pool time elsewhere.

Please contact [email protected] if you can help us in any way 🙏🏼

5 Keys to Being a Good Sports Parent:

1. Reward right things such as behavior, attitude & work-ethic

2. Have them play multiple sports

3. Support others, not only your kid

4. Let the coach do the coaching

5. Contribute to a positive environment. Don’t speak poorly of others

Hi @BBCNews @BBCSport it’s me again!! Just so you know, I’m not going away 👍🏼

Just finished the six o’clock news, thought I’d remind you about our latest group of WORLD CHAMPIONS today… As once again you appear to have mistakenly missed it 🙄😡

Absolutely appalling behaviour!

A good coach or leader can be flexible in certain things, but never on standards and values.

Here is my list of things I teach my swimmers every season.

1. Attendance matters but you don't get rewarded for just being here.

2. Being kind will get you further with me than being talented. Who you are matters to me more than what you can do.

3. Never knock someone down who is working hard.

4. It's not "cool" to be lazy. If you enjoy being lazy, I'm not the right coach for you. No one wants to hear how easy that set was for you or how you didn't try on that race.

5. Swimming fast is fun. When we get to our champs meet and see how much progress you made you will know the hard work was worth it.

6. No pity parties.

7. The younger athletes are watching you. Act like it.

What's one of your BIG things each season?
