Last minute saves that preserved the win 🏆

29/04/2026

Watching Charlie win Player of the Tournament at Flamingo Land filled me with pride.

People see the trophies, the saves and the smiles but they don’t always see the hard work behind it. The extra training, the setbacks, the frustrations, the early mornings, and the determination to keep improving every single week.

We clash sometimes. We both care deeply, and as his dad I’ll always push him because I know what he’s capable of. Every conversation, every challenge and every bit of encouragement comes from wanting him to become the very best version of himself not just as a goalkeeper, but as a person.

What makes me proud isn’t just the award. It’s his attitude, resilience and commitment to getting better.

Seeing that hard work recognised this weekend meant everything.

Keep working. Keep learning. Keep believing, Charlie. 🧤💙🏆

Technical Tuesday 🧤⚙️

Good goalkeeping isn’t about standing still.
It’s about being set to move.

Too many keepers think “set position” means frozen feet.
In reality, the best keepers are making constant micro-adjustments — small steps, balanced body, weight ready to explode in any direction.

Key cues to focus on this week: • Match your movement to the ball
• Stay tall but relaxed
• Finish your movement before the shot, not during it

Stillness kills reactions.
Balance creates speed.
Train the details — they decide the saves you don’t even think about.

RESET YOUR MINDSET 🧠🧤
Every save starts in your head.

If you’re still thinking about the last mistake, you’re already late.

Great goalkeepers reset fast.

Focus on what you control:
➡️ the next action
➡️ the next decision
➡️ the next save

Mistakes aren’t failure — they’re feedback.
Respond better than you react.
Make this week count.

As a goalkeeper, there were times I genuinely dreaded matchday.
Not the warm-up.
Not the kit
It was the 90 minutes where one moment could define everything.

Days before a game, my mind would already be working against me. Every shot I might face. Every cross I might misjudge. Every mistake that could be replayed in silence while everyone else jogged back to their position

Performance anxiety crept in quietly. It showed up in the build-up, not just the match. Over-analysis. Tension. Playing safe instead of playing assertively. I wasn’t just preparing to perform — I was preparing not to fail.
And that mindset holds goalkeepers back.
Instead of trusting my 5 and performing in them is how well you manage the mental load that comes with the role.
Preparation isn’t just drills and reps.
It’s learning how to:
Accept pressure as part of the position
Reset quickly after errors
Separate self-worth from outcomes
When I started preparing my mind like I prepared my hands and feet, matchday stopped feeling like a threat. The nerves didn’t disappear — but they stopped running the show.

What do you do to help with this? Has this ever happened to you?

Well done Charlie great performance ⚽👏

P2P ACADEMY V Partick Thistle FC

One proud coach tonight! Our 2016s had their first fixture against a pro youth club our own age tonight and we competed excellently👏🏼
Being 4-0 down to bring it back to 4-3 going into the last 10 minutes to then loose 7-4 is tha hard part but a learning curve all the same. Some great football on show and some well taken goals but the most important thing was the togetherness to dig in and come back into a game that could easily have petered out💪🏼
A few negatives but plenty of positives to take into our next fixture in a few weeks time👌🏼

Massive thanks to Partick Thistle for hosting us! A talented bunch of players up there🤝

Well done boys❤️⚽️
