GAFFER’S NOTES SPONSORED BY

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

I’d like to extend that welcome to John Coleman and Jimmy Bell, as well as the rest of the staff at Accrington and their players, as well as the directors and supporters who have made the trip across Lancashire today.

Today is our second home game this week, and marks a very busy seven days for us. I thought we deserved a point on Tuesday night against Wycombe and don’t come away too disappointed given the manner of how the game played out. Once again the lads showed great heart and character to score a late goal and earn a valuable point and we

hope to take the momentum we got from that late goal into today’s game with Accrington.

I know John and Jimmy really well at Accrington, and have the upmost respect for the job that they continue to do there. Whilst we picked up four points against them last year, both games were tight affairs and we’re expecting a similar battle once more today. We haven’t lost in our last eight league games at Highbury, and we want to continue that excellent run today.

I’d finally like to give a special mention to Paddy Madden, who scored the 100th EFL goal of his career on Tuesday night. Since I came to the club, Paddy has been first class, both on and off the pitch, and deserves all the plaudits he is

getting at the moment. If there are any young strikers out there who want to become a quality goalscorer, then look no further than Paddy. Here’s to the next 100!

Enjoy the game,

Fleetwood Town v Burnley

ANDREW FEATURE GDANNY AFFER’ S NOTES

DANNYFANDREW FEATURE GAF ER’S NO T ES

ANDREW HAPPY TO BE

BACK AT HIGHBURY

" I MADE A LOT OF CLOSE FRIENDS WHEN I WAS HERE BEFORE. JOSH MORRIS WAS ONE, OBVIOUSLY. JAMIE PROCTOR WAS THE BEST MAN AT MY WEDDING AND NATHAN POND A GROOMSMAN. I KNEW JACK SOWERBY FROM CAR SCHOOL AND MET ASH EASTHAM BRIEFLY AT CHELTENHAM TOWN."

WORDS: DAVID MITCHELL

Now back for his second spell with the Cod Army, Danny Andrew is hoping to kick on after a positive start to the season.

H

olbeach was Danny Andrew’s birthplace in December 1990.

The Lincolnshire market town in flower growing country has not produced many professional footballers over the years although my research did find one Brian ‘Slogger’ Keeble.

‘Slogger’, a defender in a quite different era, made 172 appearances for Grimsby Town in the sixties and, ironically, Danny was to also play for the Mariners some half a century later, after following Keeble into local football, “Holbeach was a quiet town in the country. I had a really happy childhood.

“My mates and I played football in the streets.

“Nowadays kids get drawn to iPads and that. Dad used to take me to watch Boston United. I was a ball boy once for a League Two match but I think that’s as high as they got.

“I was always a Liverpool fan. Mum and Dad used to tell me that if I ate my vegetables I would be as quick as Michael Owen! As I got a bit older, Steven Gerrard was the one who stuck out.”

“I started in centre midfield in local football. I could get away with running around the pitch because of my fitness and ability but I wasn’t as aware as some.

“I got picked out from the local age group representative team by Peterborough but their Centre of Excellence closed down.

Then I went to Leicester City.

“I would be around thirteen or fourteen.

It was a much longer journey for me, probably an hour and a half at least. They put me on the left wing but I finished at left back which suited me more.

“I stayed there for a couple of years but was eventually told that I was too small so went back to play at Holbeach United for a season.

44

“Then my grandad saw an advert in the newspaper, inviting players to Peterborough’s Under 16s. A year later I had got a scholarship.”

Danny developed through the youth system to play the final two games of the 2009-10 season.

“My debut was at home to Blackpool who were on their way to the Premier League through the play-offs.

“I was up against the likes of Charlie Adam, Gary Taylor-Fletcher and Seamus Coleman.

“DJ Campbell was playing on my shoulder so it was a really stern test. The last game of the season was at Plymouth Argyle.

“We won 2-1 and the local paper gave me the star man award.”

In June 2010, the twenty-eight year old signed a two-year contract at Cheltenham Town.

“Around four teams wanted to sign me permanently. The option was to stay at Peterborough and go out on loan.

“I was advised to get first team experience and play for a team that I was part of, where winning mattered.”

After his first season at Cheltenham, Danny was rewarded with a contract extension.

“I had a really good first season in 2010-11 and got Young Player of the Year.

“I was in a really good place coming back to training after the summer.

I played the first ten games and never really featured again.”

Loan periods followed at Mansfield Town, Cambridge United and Gloucester City.

“Being out on loan was great experience.

“Unless you are built like a man at 2017/18 years old you have to supplement

your experience with other teams in men’s football. You can get stronger and adapt to the game.

“You have to earn respect. The tackles come flying in and you just get up and bounce back.

“You cannot dwell on things and show weakness.”

After impressing in a trial with Macclesfield Town, Danny signed a shortterm contract in July 2013.

“I literally had two days to impress before match day. I knew I had to not mess up.

“After the Saturday game, John Askey, the manager, told me to come back on Monday and we would try to sort something out.

“All they could offer was a six week deal. I had no option. I took it. I really enjoyed this spell and got on well with John.

“Macclesfield were struggling financially but I just needed to play games.

“I believed in myself and knew that I could play at this level, or even above.

Whatever it took I needed to get back in the spotlight.

“After earlier setbacks in my career I had a drive in me not to fail. It’s all I wanted to do.

“After three or four games in the Conference I got an England C call up. I scored a few goals.

“Clean sheets are more important as a defender but goals can win you games.

“In January 2014 Gateshead were trying to double my wages and offer promotion bonuses.

“I would have become more stable but I didn’t want to risk leaving a club where I was enjoying my football.

Macclesfield offered me another six months.

“I played every game that season. We had a good FA Cup run, Third Round I think.

“Fleetwood came in for me in the summer. I was working on a building site back home.

“Macclesfield had released everyone apart from me because they knew that they could get some money for me. I wasn’t getting paid for football at that time.

“Fleetwood’s Stuart Murdoch had come to watch me but I had had about eight weeks off because of circumstances and that is way too long for the summer.

“The other lads had about four weeks off so I felt way behind.

“My period was dogged by injury but I know now that my body wasn’t ready to play at what would be my highest level intensity-wise.

“I was always playing catch-up over the two years.

“I didn’t have the strength that I’ve got now. On the pitch for Fleetwood I knew I could do it but just couldn’t stay out there and sustain it.”

After just sixteen EFL games in two seasons Danny was released in the summer of 2016, signing a one-year contract at Blundell Park.

“Grimsby was probably the best season of my career aside from last season.

“It was another season when I knew that I had to deliver.

“I played every game but just didn’t get a goal. I was so close but that was my only regret! I finished with nine awards out of thirteen.

“Grimsby took a big chance with me after injuries.”

From there, Danny signed for Doncaster Rovers in June 2017, under former manager, Darren Ferguson.

“Darren had given me my chance as a pro at Peterborough United after seeing me through the scholarship.

“I will always be grateful to him for that. I knew that I was ready and more robust physically after my season at Grimsby.

“I played six games then one tackle and my season was over. I had so wanted to impress. What more could I do?

“I tried to live right, I trained right and my cruciate snaps.

“Mentally, I was in a really dark place for the first couple of weeks. Was this showing me that I couldn’t play at this level?

“Then that love for the game returned bit by bit.

I got my diet and my head sorted.

“I decided that this was just another blip on my journey and I had come back from adversity before.

“I kept convincing myself that I could do it again. It happened and I came back last season to play over fifty games for Doncaster.

“It was great to be alongside Matty Blair again.

Blairy is a top, top geezer and has become a really good friend.”

Friendships are playing a vital part in helping Danny settle back at Fleetwood Town.

“I made a lot of close friends when I was here before.

“Josh Morris was one, obviously. Jamie Proctor was best man at my wedding, Nathan Pond a groomsman.

“I knew Jack Sowerby from car school and met Ash Eastham briefly at Cheltenham Town.

“Proc and Pondy have kids similar in age to mine.

“My wife was at University in Preston when I met her. Her family are from Hastings, I’m from Lincolnshire.

“Where do you pick to live? So, we decided to reacquaint with all our friends.

“I wanted her to be settled and little one to grow up somewhere familiar. It’s great to be back!

“The manager has a lot of experience and Clint as a defender. They’ve been to the top level and that’s only going to develop me as a player.”

Danny made his mark immediately with a stunning free kick back at Peterborough on day one.

“I’m confident that I can hit the target with free kicks.

“Josh wasn’t on the pitch but I still had to battle with Ash Hunter for the ball!

“The keeper got a hand to it but probably saw it too late. I was so thrilled and immediately set off to run to my family. It was my kid’s first game.”

After triumphing over several setbacks in his career, Danny is hoping for a smooth journey over his three-year contract with Fleetwood.

UNDER 18s COACH *

We’ve been away with the League Football Education (LFE) on the Erasmus tour to Madrid which was a fantastic experience for all the staff and players, and a huge thanks goes to the LFE for putting on the trip as we couldn’t have had a better pre-season tour.

The trip wasn’t about just playing matches, as in the first week we had scheduled sessions which included the group taking Spanish language lessons, training sessions held by coaches at the Spanish FA – and this gave us all an insight into the famous Spanish way of playing.

This was a great learning curve for our players as they got to see the amount of detail that goes into sessions and how that is implemented into a match situation.

It was non-stop activities for the first week, and then at the end of that first week, we had our first match of the trip against Segunda Division side Rayo Vallecano.

This was a huge test for the lads as they had to deal with the opposition having the most of the ball, but how they could affect the game without and then on the counter.

This led to our second match against Getafe, and from the result in the last

match it made us all hungrier to go and put on another strong performance.

They were different in terms their style of play so again to see the lads adapt was great for the coaching staff and I to see.

We went two down after five minutes so fight back and not look defeated – great character shown!

Then came the big one – the match against Atletico Madrid at their training facility.

We went one nil up in the game but with the high temperatures & their pressure, they managed to get back into it and pip us right at the death.

It wasn’t about the results in ether of the games, it was about us learning more about our players and the new first year scholars.

The season begins this weekend and we can’t wait!

We’ve had seven to eight weeks with the lads and it’s important we put what we’ve practiced into the first match and start of strongly.

We had success last year on and off the pitch with a number of playing getting calls up to the first team, but we can’t just rest on those successes, we have to keep improving and aim to be better than we were 12 months ago.

FIVE WEEKS OF SUMMER SPORTS CAMPS END WITH RECORD NUMBER OF ATTENDEES! When the last school bell rang in July, it meant that it was time for the Community Trust to open their doors for their summer sports camps – which was ran at three different venues (Poolfoot Farm, Shakespeare Primary School & Carleton Green Primary School).

With the introduction of the Shakespeare sports camp, which is now the number one sports camp in Fleetwood with the increase in participation – averaging over 40 children each day – there was no better place to be to take part in a variety of different activities.

Along with the other two camps, the summer camps had record numbers of over 145 attend across all three and with this success, we are already looking forward to the next time camps are open.

Live Streaming - Match Commentary Behind the Scenes Exclusive Content

A number of Fleetwood’s first team players attended sessions throughout the summer with summer signing Harry Souttar and Ged Garner going to Carleton Green, with Josh Morris and Craig Morgan going to Shakespeare to take part in a obstacle course race, as well as a large game of dodgeball.

Alex Cairns, Ashley Eastham and Harrison Biggins were present at Poolfoot Farm to see the skills on show at the summer soccer camp – who knows, they might have seen Town’s future players with their own eyes.

Something different this year was we held a football tournament which involved all three camps.

This allowed children on different camps to compete against each other and also meet new children.

A huge thanks goes out to the staff who have run each camp. Without them these are not possible, and also a thank you to all who attended. We hope you had a fantastic summer with us! – We can’t wait to do it all over again so stay tuned for more details!
