I believe he is also a player liaison officer for the club, dealing with the Dutch players.

Michel Kuipers

Ah thanks, remember him yes, but why is he "FDM"?

 

[edna krabappel]

Ah thanks, remember him yes, but why is he "FDM"?

Because he's a former Dutch marine.

And if you sing "Michel Kuipers, a former Dutch marine", to the tune of a well known Beatles song, it just....flows.

Stuart Storer is manager of Bedworth United. Which is somewhere near Coventry. He was a driving instructor at some point I think. Maybe he still does that on the side.

Andy Petterson, is, amazingly, a goalkeeping coach at Bali United.

I can think of few goalkeepers I'd be less keen to coach goalkeepers than him

To address a couple from page one...

Nogan was doing fine in Preston/Burnley area after he retired. Enjoyed a few beers.

FDM was Locadia's agent while he was with us. I'd imagine he's set for life if he had any cut of the fee that brought JL here.

Johnny Byrne remains an absolute prince

FDM is an agent for a few of the younger U18 players also

Haha.. you know em all.

Another one from Brighton who went to Sweden is Giles Stille, who was first a player and then a coach here for a lot of years. No idea what he is doing now.

Gilles Stille was coaching in the Champions League in Sweden a few years back , he nearly got some sort of coaching role at Brighton and was last seen coaching / managing in China . He and his kids still reside in Sweden . I met him in the battle a few years back
