Carl admits to nerves when he watches North Wales Crusaders

Leader Live16 hours ago
Forster never suffered from nerves during a successful playing career, but he tends to be plagued by them in his coaching seat!
Preparing for Sunday's big top-of-the-table showdown at home to Workington Town, Forster told CruCast: 'In terms of the pressure I feel, I feel like I'm getting better.
'I do get very nervous not playing. I was never nervous as a player, I think just because you feel like you can do something about the outcome.
'But, kind of, when you get to a game day, it's pretty much all on the lads and everything is kind of took out of your hands.
'So, that's why I do get nervous, but I don't know why I'm nervous, because the boys keep delivering and I am kind of trying to become a little bit more relaxed leading up to the game and just enjoying it more.'
Crusaders will maintain their healthy three-point advantage at the top of the League One standings if they can secure a 10th triumph of the campaign on Sunday.

How Derby are starting to believe again after six turbulent years thanks to two key figures, a tailored approach for every player and a pair of cricket gurus

There is something brewing at the western end of Brian Clough Way. In the last six years alone, Derby have lost at Wembley when they were 90 minutes from the Premier League. They have been docked 21 points, entered administration, been relegated to League One, seen Wayne Rooney come and go and been rescued from the edge of extinction.

It read: "Swansea City is wishing the club's former player Andy Robinson a full and speedy recovery after suffering a heart attack earlier today. "Andy is currently in a stable condition in hospital. "We're all with you Robbo". While Leeds United showed their support for their former player in a post on X too. It read: "Now in a stable condition, everyone at #LUFC wishes former player Andy Robinson a speedy recovery, after he suffered a heart attack earlier today". Robinson became a fan favourite at both Leeds and Swansea and has continued his support of the Swans since leaving the club in 2008.

As well as representing Leeds and Swansea, Robinson played for Tranmere, Ammanford, Stockport and Shrewsbury, before retiring in 2021. Robinson got his big break into professional football in 2003, when he was offered a trial by hen Swansea boss Brian Flynn after impressing at an amateur side in his home town of Birkenhead. Across his career Robinson won the EFL Trophy and a League One title with the Swans. While he is remembered fondly by Swansea fans as the last player to ever score at iconic stadium Vetch Field, netting the winning goal in the FAW Premier Cup final against Wrexham in 2005.

Out-of-contract Rangers star signs new one-year deal to stay at Ibrox

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) RANGERS have already signed four new players this summer as Russell Martin is wasting no time in getting his team ready for the start of the season. He has to act fast, though, with just three weeks before the Champions League qualifier against Panathinaikos. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Russell Martin has been busy in the transfer market Credit: Willie Vass 2 He's also tied down a current Gers star on a new deal Credit: Willie Vass - The Sun The manager has to replace the likes of Vaclav Cerny, Neraysho Fernandes and Rafael Fernandes who have all left following the end of their loan spells. Ianis Hagi, Leon Balogun and Tom Lawrence also departed after running down their contracts at Ibrox. But one out-of-contract ace HAS decided to stay beyond this summer after penning a new short-term deal. It's unlikely he will even feature for the Light Blues this season, though, as he hasn't made a single first team appearance for the club in NINE years. Back-up goalkeeper Kieran Wright will stay at Ibrox for another season at the very least after penning a new one-year deal in Govan. The 26-year-old will enter his TENTH year as a first team player this season but the closest he's ever got to making his debut has been appearances on the bench. Since making his breakthrough in the Rangers youth academy he has spent most of his career out on loan to various Scottish clubs. He got his first taste of senior action in the lower leagues with Gala Fairydean Rovers in the 2016/17 season but has since played for several SPFL sides. He's played for Albion Rovers, Raoth Rovers, Alloa Athletic, Partick Thistle, Dumbarton, Livingston and most recently Airdrie. He won the League One title with Partick Thistle in the 2020/21 campaign - his only silverware as a professional player. Ally McCoist confesses to 'horrendous' epic fail ahead of final day of Rangers legend's charity bike ride He spent the second half of last season on loan at Airdrie in the Scottish Championship, where he helped them retained their second-tier status by beating Cove Rangers in the relegation play-off final in May. He made 24 appearances in total for the Championship club. Keep up to date with ALL the latest news and transfers at the Scottish Sun football page
