#4thAnniversaryMeetUp 🥳 We are delighted to announce that we are going to celebrate our 4th Anniversary and second Meet-Up Event , with our great friends @EnglandLearning at St George’s Park on Sunday 19th January (10-3pm ) 🙌🏼 This is a totally FREE event to attend…

@RJPcoach @Cameron91302606 Absolutely 💯 agree with you on this Rob!

“Hi, come in...” “Thanks boss” “I’ve noticed a few things in training lately. I’ve been trying to work on your movement but you seem really disinterested. You look distracted” “To be honest I just don’t think that’s what I need right now. I don’t think movement is my problem.” “Ok, you think I’m working on something that you’re already awesome at” (empathy statement) “Well, I’m not gonna say I’m awesome, but I think I’m good” “I think you are too. What do you think the difference between good and awesome is? (Divergent question...coach as guide) “Probably being able to lose my marker a few more times a game I guess” “I’d agree with that. What do you think you’ve got to do to improve that?” (Divergent question...coach as guide) “I have to work physically to be a bit quicker off the mark. I also need to think about timing and direction of runs” “Ok, I see what you’re saying there. With your permission I’d like to help you. What can I do to help?” (Divergent question...coach as follower...asking permission) “Probably nothing during training as I find it distracting. But maybe we can work together after training on it?” “Let’s do that. We’ll create some ideas together to help continue to work to awesome” Empathy Coach as guide Coach as follower Divergent questions

@CoachRichLTJAFC @SophieIbberson Absolutely, all about the flat spot markers, love them, the challenge is not using them all as frisbees 😂 maybe it's why I like them

@SophieIbberson Nearly ordered these but was waiting for your feedback… I’d be trying to iron them on the pitch

@MartynPhillips1 @ChrisEddy_7 Sock boots 🤔😐

@ChrisEddy_7 😂 that's what I've got, the old MOB style white Predator, but the left boot just isn't having any of it 🙈 I'll just go back to normal socks next time I can play 🤷‍♂️

A serious question, how the hell do you get football boots (especially the sock boots) on while wearing grip socks? These two inventions don't feel compatible 🤯

@MartynPhillips1 Yeah I guess that's the starting point. At the moment no, although we did experiment with it a little last season. Best and most affordable filming option?

@welshwizard22 Thanks mate 🙏 Do you film your matches?

Soooo, pulled hamstring, how long before you can run again? 😳

@MartynPhillips1 Also was going to ask, I really like all of the data analysis you do for Newport. With my UEFA B license I'm interested in exploring data more with my grassroots team, any tips for starting?

@welshwizard22 😂

@MartynPhillips1 You on penalties when you get back 😂

@welshwizard22 5 aside mate, probably need to knock that on the head and stick to running! Only started playing again about 4 weeks ago after 12 years 😂

@MartynPhillips1 No worries, hope you get back soon!. Was it 5-a side, or did you do it running?

@welshwizard22 Thanks mate, it's a first for me 🙈
