Highlighting the good and bad of grassroots football

@BBCMOTD According Eniola Aluko that’s 27 times a season

[Mark O'Sullivan PhD @markstkhlm]

The only real conclusion we can draw from the fact that 85% of the /England) squad signed for academies at the age of 8 is that 8 is the earliest age you can register for an academy. Correlation is not causation.

@LagboatUK1 But can’t take a bottle top into a football ground

Makes sense

[Secret grassroots coach @Secretgrassroo2]

Imagine coming over from another country to do one of these trial events, all that travelling, all that cash, all those dreams and you end up getting a trial for Watford Gap service station 7 a side team

How do these fellas keep straight faces

@nkh12349 Crazy there are no jobs in court for her with so many crimes going on.

@pooley11 Agree Glen

A lad recently told me he’s step 5 looking for League 2 or National league

Turns out he plays for the step 5 reserves

[Secret grassroots coach @Secretgrassroo2]

See the new thing now is lads who don’t play semi pro are saying they are semi pro

Odd behaviour

Claiming they were at certain clubs when really they walked past the club shop when they were 8.

The liesssssss

@savegrassroots Kids tournaments - seen loads of them & all the same. Teams full of ringers playing in ‘low level’ comps, so level 1 Lenny & his cranky parents can post insta pics of their £10 cups to all their mates

Absolute state of this
Saw a big unit from Wigan sink 12 wkds at a kids tournament while smoking like a trooper

Next day she was at Spoons with a pint and feeding the kids breakfast

She should have her own Podcast

Steven Bartlett says a few glasses of wine ruined the next 3 days of his life

“It's one of those areas where you don't understand the hidden cost until you really give it up for a while. I stopped drinking at 30 years old. I'm now 33. When I was 31, I thought, I'll have a drink again because now I could really A/B test it. I had a year of not drinking, decided to have a drink again”

“It ruined three days of my life. I had a couple of glasses of wine, didn't get drunk. It ruined three days of my life because of the domino effect it caused”

“I got worse sleep that night, and then because I got worse sleep that night, I ate more poorly the next day because my dopamine system or whatever, the cortisol system was all messed up. I podcasted worse. I didn't go to the gym that day or the day after because I felt really bad. I then slept worse, and I could track all of this on my Whoop”

Youth soccer tournament in Southern California over the holiday weekend.

Too much ego, lack of education and sometimes even alcohol makes this kind of incident unsurprising.

@SalfordCityFC Really hard to take for all those Salford fans

Hope you both get home safely

[Vicki Hall ~ Movement & Strength Coach @hallhealthfit]

Young footballers are playing more than ever ⚽️

More matches. More intensity. More hard surfaces.

But few still get little support around:
• strength training
• recovery
• load management

We need conversations about helping young bodies cope with modern football demands!
