NEW VIDEO!
I analyse what’s going WRONG at Bolton Wanderers throughout the whole of 2024.
Despite the club being 3 points behind 4th with a game in hand, the negativity around the club is alarming..

I am the wife of a man who has dedicated the past 12 years to coaching young boys, helping them become the best versions of themselves. What began as simply helping out my son’s team when he was five years old has grown into a journey where my husband is now the head coach and chief cheerleader.
Sadly, that journey came to an end last night. Why? Because, after a series of tough results (and yes, they were tough 🤦♀️), a local team made a tempting offer to some of the most talented players on my husband’s team. These boys, aged 15 and 16, felt their pride wounded and decided to take up the offer. This led to more players following suit, leaving my husband with no choice but to fold the team.
Despite his heartbreak, my husband fought until the very end. He stayed up all night, reaching out to every parent he could think of who might have a player who could help. He felt a deep responsibility to the remaining players to ensure they could still enjoy football on the weekend. Sadly, despite his best efforts, it wasn’t meant to be.
I watched my husband crumble last night. It was heartbreaking. He cried, something I rarely see. He spent hours calling each parent, and the tears were not just his own. The words of comfort from the parents were incredibly moving:
‘My son wouldn’t be who he is today without you.’
‘Because of you, my son has made lifelong friends.’
Unfortunately, youth football can be incredibly competitive, as an ex-dance mum, I can say without a doubt that the world of grassroots football is far more cutthroat than the world of dance!
Though the team may be gone, my husband’s work doesn’t end here. He will do everything in his power to help the boys find new teams if that’s what they want. And why does he continue? Because his values are rooted in respect, integrity, and sportsmanship. His team has meant everything to him, and they always will.
I guess I’m just venting my grief. Yes, grief. We lost our football family last night. We knew it wouldn’t last forever, but losing it so suddenly and harshly is difficult to process. To all the grassroots coaches out there—like my husband—who simply want to see kids enjoy the game, I want to say: I’m proud of you. Your impact on their lives is something no one can take away.
Yours in Sport,
Anon
If you get into difficulty in the water, remember #FloatToLive…
· Tilt your head back with ears submerged.
· Relax, breathe normally.
· Move your hands to help you stay afloat.
Once your breathing is controlled, call for help or swim to safety.
