Be very afraid. I went to the Academy ground this morning to see the under 18s play a friendly against Den Haag. As usual , you say good morning to all the backroom staff as you arrive. For the past 2 months I've said hello to a guy who appears to be a goalkeeping coach. This morning this coach took sub keeper Murphy Cooper to an adjacent pitch and gave him a rigorous workout while the game was being played. I went and sat with club historian Gordon Macey for a chat at half time. Gordon asked me did I know who the goalkeeping coach was ??? No I didn't. I was gobsmacked to discover it was Ademole Bankole.
