Geoff Cathey is alive and well
19/11/2009 by Russell.
Fantastic, eureka! its one of those moments all rolled into one. I have found arguably the most sensible and knowledgable football coach this chap has ever had the privilege of working with(and that includes Jack Charlton) who is now retired and now studying for a Law Degree (in sport -of course). He was my tutor betwen 1972 to 1978 at Tupton Hall School, Station new Road, Old Tupton, Chesterfield.
Boy did he make us work, but the joy was that we had several football teams at my school which were a joy to behold and play in.
Ever the optimist, I knew someday that i would find this gentleman, and today was that day, probably felt as excited about this moment as those other life changing moments, such as the birth of children etc.To say the least i shed tears at the thought he took time out to respond to my email………more to follow soon.
GOD BLESS GEOFF! - going to bed now to get up tomorrow.
P.S. Ireland were swissed out of a chance to go to the World Cup Finals, - Platini, what about video evidence now eh?
