@PeterSharpe1 Well done Peter 👏👏

[Bernie Pearson @PearsonBerni]

@fergalmallon @PlayerGaelic It’s the coaches bias that would play the u14s to begin with and a different coach would exert their own bias or opinion. The overarching point of the thread I do believe

[Bernie Pearson @PearsonBerni]

@fergalmallon @PlayerGaelic Fergal it’s generally the “coaches” own children who are the “skilled” u14 getting extra game time. It’s important that such optisim bias is highlighted as extremely damaging to development and they are only coaching to ensure their child gets staying on

[Bernie Pearson @PearsonBerni]

@BolaOwolabi8 opens #rdf23 “ensure you look back in 10 years to say you done all you could to reduce healthcare inequalities leading us from the wake of this awful pandemic” - powerful messaging @NHSRDForum
