Time to report my role at Swansea has come to an end earlier this month. I wish YJB’s well. 👍
Hopefully the next challenge is not to far away and I can continue to give the best of my abilities & professionalism to my next employer and professional players I encounter.
I wish the fans

Great to yesterday start my new role with
@England
as National Teams Goalkeeper Coach. Looking forward to supporting and assisting the organisation and the goalkeepers and coaches within the programmes throughout the country.
To the Gas.! Pleasure working for your club.. although a proud Welshman my parents and grandparents were Bristolian and that made my time even more special. Wish you all every success..!
📰 We can today confirm that goalkeeping coach, Adrian Tucker, has left the Club in order to pursue a new challenge working abroad.

. Overcame illness from the dreaded ‘C’ and fought back to achieve his first appearance this evening. Well done Jack 👍
I think this is important to see. (Originally from Mrs Hudson) It’s not about any team/s, it’s what people may not see when a manager, coach, backroom staff member loses a job. The impact on the family, especially the kids! I’ve experienced the same..it hurts us all!😢
🗞️The club can confirm that Manager Ben Garner has been granted a period of extended leave to deal with a private matter regarding the health of a close family member.
So for former

manager, assistant, gk coach and head Physio & medical have together helped knock the mighty Brazil out of the World Cup.! Who’d have thought that 10 years ago.!!
4 points from 6 from two tough league fixtures and into FA Cup round 3 after a trip to Plymouth...good week .!! Loudest I’ve heard the MEM today 👏👏👏MERRY CHRISTMAS GAS HEAD’s

Today my respects were paid with many others at the funeral in Bassaleg, Newport of Mr Tony Hopkins, the

Great to be back in the

and we look forward for the Liberty next week 👍
If Carlsberg did ...top ‘professional’ footballers and individuals , John O’Shea would be right at the top end..! Last of his 118 international caps tonight for the Republic..! Massive achievement for a top, top guy.!! 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Said it before … it’s about timing. If you jump/bounce to a set position YOU CAN NOT MOVE, Until you’re feet are on the ground.! GK 6 inches in the air on contact from header then the ball is 6 yards closer to goal before the GK can move laterally. Just saying.!
Gutted I couldn’t be there to congratulate ´my mentor’ and good friend Martin Thomas on 27 years service to
@EnglandFootball
.. look forward following on his good work and a few more coffee morning catch ups in our local town.!
#ThommoRetires
A step forward today with a strong defensive display ... it's turning those potential defeats to draws and then the draws into wins... great turnout especially with it Christmas time..👍 👏
On to a new opportunity. Merci

a great advert for the Championship last night. Some great football and an excellent performance from the boys. Tuesday nights at a full Liberty are also great occasions.
Pleased to deliver the my first coach education goalkeeper course this week. Tutoring 24 potential Level 1 goalkeeping instructors to deliver the product around the country. Great experience and thankfully positive feedback....
Job done.!! Challenge completed..! Fantastic achievement and proud to be part of a great group of staff

GK & outfield coaches, Keep your eye out this week for 10 further

They will go fast.!! Please RT
Todays mission achieved and into the last 8..always greatful of the support but remember within this group of players many are still finding their way and need your positive vibes..also to say Brentford are a decent team. Much improved in recent Months. Thanks again though!
#YJB
I must have seen at least 10 goals in the tournament conceded by a gk who still remains off the floor as the ball is traveling to the goal..!!! Their habit and therefore ‘wrong timing’ of the ‘jump/hop’ limits the success rate of any dive & save 👀 🧤
All considered a very good start with 7 points from 9.... this league is tough and nights like tonight showed the other side of the game needed at away games.

#JackArmy
Appreciate the messages and good wishes (I understand the not so nice ones also) Those good wishes, people that know me and my professionalism to my work matter most. Again thank you and best wishes. I’ve enjoyed the North East...👍

debuts this evening. Fantastic application and bravery to try and play, adopting the Swans way....only disappointing thing was the result. Thanks to the 9,000 who attended 👍
Thought it was a professional performance in general today, in what could have been made a tricky game. Must say 15,000 turning up in that weather was fantastic.! See you again Tuesday 👏👏

Really pleased to read Steven made his senior debut yesterday..! Another example of what a good loan spell for a young goalkeeper can lead to...Proved his ability in L2 and Swansea now full understand what they have in the building... watch the space..!!
Very proud moment making my senior debut for Swansea today. Big 3 points against a tough opponent 💪🏻 thought the team was excellent today. Let’s keep working hard 🔥
@SwansOfficial
Shared a few tweets today. But as a young boy growing up in the Merthyr Valley, we always remember one of our boroughs villages, Aberfan. Thoughts again 55 years on with you all.
