Just an incredible day with the team, the fans, the staff and our families.
Starting out as a kid watching games at The Goldstone and Withdean in Division 3, I could never have dreamed this…
We are Brighton, and we are going to Europe! 💙🙏
Honored to be joining
@OfficialBHAFC

From a season ticket holder at Withdean as a kid to joining the club as a coach in the Premier League… football has taken me around the world, but now, coming home.
Can’t wait to get started! ⚽️💪🔵⚪️

Catch or push = major decision for Goalkeepers at all levels! Trust your hands & footwork but be ready to deflect the ball into good areas when not possible to be clean. Calm and composed but always prepared to improvise and react when needed. Effective Goalkeeping!
#GKunion
Through the ups and the downs of this inaugural MLS season we never stopped supporting and believing in each other. So much respect for these guys for their commitment to the cause and putting their body on the line everyday for our club.

It’s cold and snowy out there Cincinnati. If you see someone in need today, take the opportunity to help them. Something to eat, a couple of dollars, even just a friendly conversation. Small gestures can make big differences. 👍❤️🙏

2 years ago we both said “I do”! After nearly a decade together she is still making me the happiest man alive every single day. Happy anniversary to my magnificent wife! 💑💍🥰❤️
First time in 4 years that I’m not sitting on the bench with the guys. Vaccinated but unfortunately still got hit with COVID. Recovering at home with family, will be watching and supporting on tv and back with the team as soon as possible! 💪🔶🔷
As I officially move on to Cincinnati, a final thank you to the guys who went to war with me everyday this past year. Evan, Max, Eric and James... it was a pleasure. 💪

Proud to have completed the A License after 2 years of hard work. As the only Goalkeeper Coach, I was forced to adapt & think in different ways... Valuable experience! You only grow outside of your comfort zone.
