It's a crazy speed to maintain, I do a 22min 5k and that's pushing myself. I can maintain his speed on a treadmill for about 40 seconds and then I'm done for 5 mins.
See, I used to think that - I'm sure I could beat Farah over twenty yards. The truth is though that he's bloody fast - 5k in 13 minutes is pretty much spriniting all the way for normal humans!
There's a good BBC video here that convinced me...
Actually, if you read his book, Cyrille said he never wanted to go into coaching after coaching West Brom's reserves as it wasnt for him.We all like to think diversity is alive and well.. but it isn’t.
Football is as racist as it gets when it comes to the lack of black coaches. Regis wanted (AND DESERVED) more than coaching West Brom reserves.
Take a minute to think about all the white former players that are gifted golden coaching opportunities that have little or no coaching credentials.
We’re talking former England managers that didn’t even have any required coaching badges but were given a special pass.

Joking aside, you do wonder sometimes whether poorly attended clubs miss a trick by not trying to attract non football communities through signing 'one of their own'. It might sound strange, but within Coventry there are huge ethnic communities that rarely if ever attend, yet if it was one of their kids/relatives/friends/countrymen, you'd have swathes turn out to support them.
You’ve clearly completely missed my point so we’ll leave it.
Actuallly I’ll spell it out. It’s hugely patronising to suggest that signing an ‘ethnic’ player of a certain ‘type’ will get that certain ‘ethnic type’ to turn up to games. I’ll tell you now, my mum didn’t rock up when we signed Paul Hall.

i like the thinking, no doubt about it would bring coventry worldwide attention and a few high attendances
impact sub and release end of season if hes no good
Not really. Purely businessAnother tactical masterclass from CC4L
Apart from football....He's one of those annoying types who'd just be good at anything they do
The lead bloke is - I saw him judging on dancing on ice the other night!We all like to think diversity is alive and well.. but it isn’t.

Compared to proper footballers granted, but if teams are letting him train and not just taking a photo for Twitter and then showing him the door he's got to be a bit handy all the same. I thought he'd give long jump a go at some point, he could probably stride the qualifiying target alone.

Unless it's all for a bit of PR.
He's obviously just quick, watching him on Soccer Aid he was a bit of a headless chicken
As Nick says, headless chicken, I'm afraid.Compared to proper footballers granted, but if teams are letting him train and not just taking a photo for Twitter and then showing him the door he's got to be a bit handy all the same.

Mayor Quimby.I'm confused, who do the yellow ones vote for then?
Looks fake to me!
Think we should see if Usain Bolt fancies a move to The Ricoh.
Would probably stick a few thousand on the attendances plus the worldwide PR would be awesome.
We pulled off moves for Denis Wise & Joe Cole so who knows - we might be able to sort this one out.
One of many stumbling blocks could be the reported £1.6m salary over 2 years!

No chance of Doyler keeping up with him in training though! :emoji_runner::emoji_smile:
