BARTON Fleetwood Town’s Head Coach gives his views ahead of today’s game against Barnsley...

G

0844 5678 427 Mon-Fri, 8.30am-5.30pm

ood afternoon and welcome to Highbury for today’s Sky Bet League One match against Barnsley.

After a week away from Highbury, we are happy to be back and are looking forward to today’s game against one of the top teams in our division. Last weekend wasn’t what we wanted at Southend – both in terms of the result and preparation. We had our flight cancelled and got to Southend at 11pm, as well as players falling ill on the night of the game. Saying that, we are not using that as an excuse as we were not up to our usual standards, and we look to get back to the levels today.

I’d also like to mention the fact that we had another two youngsters from the academy on the bench last week in Billy Crellin and Ryan Rydel. Billy has been called back from FC United, whilst Ryan has made a strong start to the season in our Under 18s squad. It’s great to highlight the hard work that is done throughout

the academy, and the lads didn’t look out of place on the bench last Saturday.

Since our last home match we have been able to bring in two new faces to the squad, Ross Wallace and Ryan Taylor. We are delighted to add both to the group, and it was fantastic to see Ross make his debut last weekend at Southend, with Ryan just missing out due to international clearance. They have both been training with us for the last couple of weeks, and the desire that both have shown to become part of what we are building at Fleetwood Town was unbelievable. I’m sure that you’ll welcome them to Highbury today should they feature. It will also be good to welcome back Wes Burns to our squad today. It seems a long time ago since he got his red card against Bradford, and has subsequently missed four games after our appeal was rejected. Wes has been training really well, and is raring to go today.

We’re really keen to get our home form

Fleetwood Town v Barnsley

right, and have started to do that having been unbeaten in our last three league games here.

Saying that, we’re wanting to turn those draws into wins, and we need your backing more than ever. Certainly in the Bradford match, you the supporters acted as our extra man and saw us over the line in getting the victory. Be loud, be proud and continue to show your support for the team, it really can make the difference.

I’d finally like to welcome the opposition, and their manager Daniel Stendel to Highbury.

Welcome also to their players, supporters and directors.

Enjoy the match.

LOANEE HOLT ENJOYING

TIME AT TOWN WORDS: DAVID MITCHELL

Since becoming the tenth Scot to represent Fleetwood Town, loanee Jason Holt has enjoyed his time at the club, whilst impressing in the midfield.

O

n the 11th August 2018, Jason Holt became the 125th Fleetwood Town player and the tenth Scot to represent the club in the EFL when he made his debut at Oxford United.

Few of the previous names on the list will have experienced the intensity and passion of nine of the two hundred plus games that Jason had previously played in a seven year career.

These were the Old Firm derbies in Glasgow when the quietly-spoken Scot lined up for Rangers against bitter rivals Celtic. His life had begun in much quieter circumstances, just east of Edinburgh, in a town smaller than Fleetwood.

Holt was born in Musselburgh, six miles east of the Scottish capital, in 1993. His family members were all Hearts fans and Jason soon got swept along by this tradition.

“I used to go to games with my uncles.

They had season tickets and would take me along to the home games and most of the away games as well.”

Two of Jason’s biggest footballing heroes growing up were playing south of the border in the Premier League. His choices say a lot about his hopes as a footballer” “I would look up to the current Rangers manager, Steven Gerrard, and Frank Lampard. They were the sort of midfield players that I was hoping to be, getting into the box and scoring goals. They were two who I looked up to and tried to model my game on.”

Jason went as far as to say in another interview that Gerrard was the greatest influence in his career.

“To be fair, I always wanted to play in midfield. There’s never been a time when I’ve played up front or as a defender.”

At the age of nine Jason signed for Hearts, the club where his heart was.

“I was playing for my local boys club,

4

Musselburgh Windsor, and managed to go training with Hearts. Signing at that age was the start of a great journey for me through the age groups at the club. I really enjoyed my time there.”

Ten years later, he was on the cusp of the first team, travelling to Italy in the 2010/11 pre-season.

“I had done well with the under 19s.

We had a really strong squad. Getting the chance to go away with the first team twice, in fact, was great reward for the hard work that I had put in. They were challenging preseasons but enjoyable at the same time. I got a real insight into life in and around the first team.”

The Under 19s finished second to Celtic in 2010/11 and Jason had to wait the full season to make his first team debut, coming on as a substitute in May 2011 at Dundee. It was in the 82nd minute of the game.

WHEN I WENT TO RAITH, I HAD ONLY PLAYED UNDER 19s FOOTBALL REGULARLY. THIS WAS MY FIRST PROPER EXPERIENCE OF FIRST TEAM FOOTBALL.

“There was me and another lad from the Under 19s, David Smith, who were close to being picked and hoping for a chance. There wasn’t too much riding on the game and thankfully the gaffer, Jim Jefferies, brought me on. When you know there might be a chance of playing, family and friends are interested and a few of them were there to see me make my debut.”

Jason was offered a three-year contract

by Hearts in 2011 and his football career

was off and running. Had it not worked out he could have continued his academic education.

“I didn’t mind school and may well have progressed to university to continue my studies.”

The next stage of his footballing education took him across the Forth Bridge to Kirkcaldy, forty miles away to the north, for a period on loan at Division One side Raith Rovers.

He admits that going out on loan is an important experience for any young aspiring footballer.

“One hundred per cent. When I went to Raith I had only played Under 19s football regularly. This was my first proper experience of first team football. There is pressure straight away.

“Winning at age group level is important but in an environment such as at Raith it mattered so much more. You were playing for points and survival.”

A goal on debut for Raith helped settle the nerves.

“Aye, it was at home to Hamilton. It was only a tap-in from a couple of yards but it was a great way to start in my first full game.”

After five games for Raith Rovers, Jason returned to his parent club and scored on debut once again, this time for Hearts away to St. Johnstone. It was March 2012.

“I remember that day well. It was brilliant to make my full debut.

“I was just hoping to play well and justify my selection but to score as well exceeded my expectations.”

There were seventy-four appearances for Hearts over the next three seasons, interrupted by a spell on loan at Sheffield United in the early part of 2015.

“I never managed to nail down a place with Hearts but to play regularly for my home

PLAYER BIO NAME: Jason Derek Holt AGE: 25 BIRTHDAY: 19/02/1993 POSITION: Central Midfielder PREVIOUS CLUBS: Heart of Midlothian (11-15) Raith Rovers (11-12 L) Sheffield United (15 L) Rangers (15-Present) Fleetwood Town (2018-Present L) DID YOU KNOW? Holt was named in the 2015/16 Championship team of the year at Rangers, as the side achieved promotion to the Scottish Premiership in the same season.

club, the one I had supported from childhood, was brilliant.”

Jason clearly made an impression at Tynecastle. He was given a trial with Rangers and was offered a three-year deal in July 2015.

“I’d finished my spell at Bramall Lane and wasn’t an obvious choice at Hearts so to get this chance was massive for my career.

“The recent years have been difficult as Rangers have climbed back up the leagues but the club has an amazing history and will get back there, in due course.

“The size of the club and the passion of the fans really hits you hard when you play. They were a pleasure to play in front of every other week at Ibrox.”

The highlights were undoubtedly the Old Firm derbies, games which Jason remembers with awe and affection.

“You’ve got the games at the weekends but the build-up is massive and starts the previous Monday.

“It’s in every newspaper every day. Before your first Old Firm game everyone tries to explain to you what it is going to be like but until you actually play in one it is impossible

to get a real feel. They are games that every player wants to be involved in and I’m lucky enough to have played in a few.

“I think I always dealt with the occasion well. There’s massive expectation every time you turn out for Rangers, not just against Celtic.

“You are under pressure to deliver and win. The whole experience has been a great privilege and, hopefully, there will be more with my contract still ongoing.”

Jason made his mark in his first season at Rangers, scoring twelve goals in 45 games and earning a place in the Championship Team of the Year.

“The expectation was to win the league and get back to the top level in Scotland so to do that and be recognized in that way as well was brilliant.

“It was an enjoyable and successful season. We played a great brand of football and we were looking to kick on the year after.”

Over seventy appearances followed in the next two years and Jason had the honour of being named captain for a number of them.

“It was never something I thought would happen but manager Graham Murray obviously

Fleetwood Town v Barnsley

saw something in me and it is an opportunity you jump at. It was a great responsibility and privilege to lead the boys out.”

The blue shirt has also been worn at national level with Jason having played in the Scottish age groups.

“Representing your country is always a privilege. I’ve had the honour of doing it at Under 19, 20 and 21 levels. First and foremost I’m here to enjoy my club football but further chances would be great.”

In May 2016, Jason was joined at Ibrox by Joey Barton.

“When Joey signed for Rangers he brought great experience and a winning mentality.

“We trained together and I picked up wee tips about how he conducts himself around the training park and in the dressing room.

“Since coming to Fleetwood I’ve been really impressed with him. We have all enjoyed our time so far and will continue to build on that.

“Poolfoot is a great place to come to work. There are great pitches, excellent gym facilities and you just want to maximize the time spent here. I want to play a big part and help my teammates”

The Gaffer

The Danger Man

D

aniel Stendel was appointed Barnsley head coach in June 2018. The 44-yearold arrived at Oakwell with a high-profile reputation from German football and has a record of developing young players, and likes his teams to attack with a high intensity press.

The German signed a two-year-deal at the Yorkshire club and has already seen his side win four from eight in the league this season, and currently sit 7th in the Sky Bet League One. Stendel started off his professional football career at Hamburg in 1994 and went on to play for SV Meppen, Hannover 96 and FC St Pauli.

In 2016, he went back to Hannover 96, where we went on to manage 34 games, winning 50% of his games there. Stendel now at Barnsley, is looking to take the Tykes back to the Championship.

K GAFFER: Daniel Stendel watching his side

DANGER MAN: Goalscoring forward Kieffer Moore

Fleetwood Town v Barnsley

ieffer Moore started his professional playing career with Conference South side Truro City back in 2012.

A move to Dorchester United would follow before catching the eyes of Yeovil Town, where he would sign later that year. After 50 games and seven goal, the striker swapped England for a brief spell in Norway at Viking F.K. Moore moved back to England in 2016 to play for Forest Green Rovers, and was loaned out to his hometown club Torquay United, where he scored five goals in four games.

This form grabbed the attention of Ipswich Town, who signed him the next year. Before the 2017/18 season, He went on loan to Rotherham United and scored 13 in 22. Barnsley signed him earlier this year, and the striker has scored 10 gaols since joining.

Academy Manager Ciaran Donnelly has been to Nicosia, Cyprus to see how their football club runs on a day to day basis and what could be brought back to Fleetwood to help develop our Academy…

I had the opportunity to go to Cyprus and visit APOEL Nicosia through my contacts and I was invited over for a few days to see what they do over there, and talk about how the two clubs can work together going forward.

I jumped at this chance and I just felt it was important going to a club with great prestige, a team playing in the UEFA Champions League, who have also faced the giants of Real Madrid and Spurs.

What the trip did was open my eyes to what football is like in other countries.

12 months ago I was luckily enough to go to Spain and visit Sevilla and Real Betis and as the Academy Manager, this allows me to widen my views on the game and how we, Fleetwood Town can be better.

Academy football is growing in England, and with the success of the national team at recent World Cup competitions and European Championships, it shows that we are going in the right direction.

Cyprus isn’t a country like England where money is available, but for me it was very interesting to see what structures are put in place to bring the best players together. They have multiple tal-

ent areas all over the nation and when the better players are identified, they then bring them together to Nicosia, where their main hub is based.

Selling the story of Fleetwood to the people in Cyprus is a bit like a Cinderella one, and when I told them about where the club was ten years ago, they were amazed and to explain how it has risen through the divisions.

Before I left, I told the staff at APOEL Nicosia that they’d be more than welcome to come to Fleetwood and bring their teams here for a tournament. Maybe down the line, we can send our staff across there, and we can welcome their staff here and work together to share ideas.

The take home message from me was how strongly we believe in our coaching philosophy and our players’ philosophy, because the message we have as coaches, will reflect on our players and will help them going forward through their time at the football club.

COMMUNITYTRUST COMMUNITY UPDATE WITH FTCT’S SENIOR SPORTS DEVELOPMENT OFFICER JASON SHARP

18

The Community Trust continue to work on different activities and initiatives within the local community, and this week we are focusing on the Premier League Primary Stars programme.

The Premier League Primary Stars programme provides free curriculum linked teaching resources for all girls and boys aged 5-11 years old. For us as a Trust, this age group is highly targeted and allows us and the schools in the area to deliver high-quality sessions to children in Key Stage One and Key Stage Two. It isn’t just for us these resources, it’s for the teachers too and with this initiative, those taking the lessons will be eligible for free lesson plans, video content, and much more in aid that it will inspire children to learn more about Physical Education, Maths and English.

The new campaign that people may have seen on our social media pages or on television before high-profile matches in the English game, will notice that Kevin De Bruyne, Sadio Mane, Juan Mata and Jose Mourinho all feature in this. This is to help children relate to the programme more and get them excited about learning, knowing it is supported by the players we like to see on the weekend.

Fleetwood Town Community Trust continue to deliver the Premier League Primary Stars programme, a national curriculum-linked education programme which uses the appeal of the Premier League and professional football clubs to inspire children to learn, be active and develop important life skills.

This is the Premier League’s most ambitious community programme to date and aims to support 10,000 primary schools by 2019, as well as adds to the existing support professional football clubs provide to primary

schools, and their local communities.

As a trust, children have seen us deliver Primary Stars programmes and most recently was the Super Movers live Maths day. We went into Larkholme Primary School and helped with the programme and it was a huge success. Children were learning about shapes, area and perimeter, co-ordinates and symmetry, with a theme based around football. For example, the children were asked to find out the perimeter of a pitch, and this goes back the engagement side of children inside and out of the classroom.

This is just one example of the work that we do and it’s important that we as a Trust, help spread the word of this programme and make sure we are given schools, teachers and children a push in terms of the engagement and inclusion within classroom environment.
