He appears to have been scouting for a long time, but yes, it does seem a bit of a step up, and at 61, quite a late one too. Oh well, good luck to him.

Weird, I replied to a tweet "name a random player from the past" or something like that, and his name popped into my head and I posted, this was a week or so ago

Vaguely remember him lumbering around the midfield for us in the late 80’s/early 90’s

Your memory serves you well, with emphasis on 'lumbering'.

Yes, he used to run football schools in the holidays to supplement his wages. I remember the likes of Gerry Armstrong and Geoff Cooper helping him out.

What do you expect, with a truss on?

Went to those

Yes, my eldest attended one out Durrington somewhere. I got roped in for the dads v coaches game and nearly had my hand taken off by a shot from Cooper.

Don’t get mad, get Trusson.

 

[sparkie]

Met him a few years ago walking his dog on the seafront at Hove near Babylon Lounge. He said then that he'd been working for Portsmouth FC.

Very much remember him missing a header against Arsenal in the cup

5 yards out,goal at his mercy and headers it straight into the arms of Lukic

Nah! I'm not bitter

Good luck Mr Trusson

 

[Lifelong Supporter]

Got sent off against Palace in the game where they had 5 penalties. He knew the importance of the derby !!

Yeah, he was unfortunately playing for us when that started.

 

[Pinkie Brown]

A random name from the past I'd totally forgotten about. Last I heard of him (years ago) he was working as an estate agent in Worthing.

 

[Lenny Rider]

Quite ironic, the first real ‘target’ of Gulls Eye, when I actually got to know him long after his Albion career had finished I discovered what a top bloke he was, he was originally part of Tony Pulis’s backroom staff and followed him to a couple of clubs, for whatever reason he never went to Stoke but then took on scouting duties.

I really do wish him well.

 

[thedonkeycentrehalf]

When I did my Level 1 coaching certificate, they had just made some changes and he was there making sure those running the course were implementing the changes. He was an excellent tutor.

Up until a few years ago, he was still living in the Angmering home he bought when he was an Albion player - not sure if he is still there.

 

[Neville's Breakfast]

I think some of the comments on this thread are a little unfair. I remember him as a decent player.

Somewhere in the middle, for me. He wasn't absolutely shit, I agree.
