    Anyone remember this guy?

    Hopkin brought him in, and he stayed for about 5 months - stayed with Bowyer for a bit, before leaving.

    Well now he's at Celtic:

    Looks like he was a shrewd appointment, but not destined to stay during the dark days of Edin Rahic and the resulting 'no man's land' that we found ourselves in.

    Still, pleased to see him doing well for himself!

    I do remember him. Came with a good reputation from Spurs - was brought in to get the player into shape. I remember thinking it was a forward thinking signing at the time. Interviews with our players pre season saying they are absolute knackered due to his high intensity training, but reaping the benefits. And then he just left.

    Good luck to him.

    He went to Morton with Hopkin and stepped up to Manager when Hopkin left as a goodwill gesture to save the Club money.
    Luca Coalville played for them for a season I think.
