Ant - I agree re: the great Andy Ellis!

Oh, one of my all time favourites. I'd love to see him back. He was probably one of the most complete midfielders we ever saw BUT he still got incredible stick from some quarters, especially towards the end of his career!

Someone told me that he's got coaching experience and I don't know if that's true or not, but we were saying a while back that Ellis and/or Thommo would do a good job down here in some capacity. Thommo wouldn't come (geography), but Ellis might.

I also think Lol Batty could come back (should come back) as a GK coach. That's not knocking Colin as I understand he's not even allowed to use the goalmouth (!!!) but I do think it's a specialised sort of coaching and Lol would be ideal. I am sure that Flav learnt a lot from him in the past but Tony's the no 1 now - very young, and a lot of pressure.

For the record, although it's not relevant to use right now, I think full time is looking increasingly like a not-very-good idea so I'm glad we've held back. Our fitness could be improved, but we don't have to be full-time to do that (Dagenham? Margate?).
