Jake Wright?
He always seemed to have more football sense than anyone else on the field. Constantly organising the others.
Currently playing for Boston.

But has he done any coaching badges?
When we played Wimbledon away I remember Jake Wright having a right go at Jack O'Connell when Jack wasn't coming back quickly enough from an attacking move. I've always thought Jake was instrumental in making Jack the player he was (and hopefully still is).

Good shout. If his leadership qualities on the pitch could transfer into coaching you'd have an excellent coach or future manager.
 
Like to take the opportunity to welcome Kevin Blackwell back to the Lane, as the final part of Heckys staff.........
 
Will the new coach race pigeons in his spare time and put Hendo's on his cornflakes?

He has and he’s also settled in Dronfield with his family since he was at BDTBL, not a bad shout.
 

Yeah I realise. Not sure if you remember Pinchy who used to post here until fairly recently, but he always used to refer to said coach as "Wally Fucking Downes", which is why I posted it :)
Pinchy is - or was - a legend, and even though he could piss everybody off at the drop of an "Only in S2", I'd welcome him back quicker than a Bassett-era long-ball.
 
Nicky Travis has served his apprenticeship under numerous managers, maybe it’s time to let him step up and given more responsibility.
Was sacked the day Hecky got the job 😔
 
Some more clues appearing. Looks like will be an ex defender/someone with defensive experience according to Heckys latest comments:

"We want to put a real focus on that across all the groups. Teams have a goalkeeping coach and we have got Jack to come and really give the strikers some attention and Macca in with the midfielders with his experience."

"The other coach will be providing that same assistance, expertise, guidance to the defenders as well."

Paul Heckingbottom has said he still wants one more coach.

Who would you like to see join the group?

I'd love it to be Nick Montgomery.
I'd like to see you ham as coach, always seem very calm and collective under pressure, you could do a job.
 
Just playing Devils advocate..
Is Morgs a bit old school? Defending has changed a lot over the last 10 years.
I would personally lean towards Jags or Stearman to be honest.
 
Chris Morgan told us no way will he ever go into football coaching or management again. He works as an agent now thats it.
Billy Sharp or Phil jagielka would be my choice.
I did some work at his gaff last year Sitwell , cracking lad to have a chat with , enjoys his current job couldn’t see him back in management or coaching any time soon

Won’t be morgs he’s settled as an agent. Jags is still playing so won’t be him unless we pay a fee for him. Might be worth looking at Coaches that hecky played alongside.
 

Stearman seems like a bright lad and driven enough to get his coaching badges early. He's one of those CBs who managed to cover his weaknesses and enhance his strengths. He knows the club and the coaches/boss. Makes sense to me.
