Simon Rusk - where is he?

[AZ Gull]

The Albion U-23 coach has been conspicuous by his absence in recent weeks. In the lead-up to the Sussex Senior Cup semi-final against Eastbourne Borough it was Vic Bragg who did the pre-match interviews; against Huddersfield Town last Saturday, looking at the highlights on the Terriers' website, it is again Bragg on the touchline with no sign of Rusk. And in the Argus today there is a short article about James Tilley where again the quotes are from "Albion coach" Vic Bragg.

Is Rusk still with the club? Has he been sick? Is he on a coaching course? On sabbatical?

Well that takes the biscuit

I think he's being interviewed for a new job in Belarus. Minsk? Ours!

Suprised he ever got to the Albion the crawley youth set up was a shambles

 

[sparkie]

Interesting. Maybe he's gone.

The mystery is solved; according to the Argus today:-

Simon Rusk is back in charge of Albion under-23s for their final home league game of the season at the Amex tonight. ... Coach Rusk is returning from coaching badge studies and a well-earned break.

The mystery is solved; according to the Argus today:-

Good spot. Is it just me that thinks there's something a bit odd about taking a "break", mid season? Imagine the scenes if Hughton had popped off to Chamonix for a week's skiing last week...

Need some time to digest-ive this

 

[AZ Gull]

Except that isnt true.

Would you care to elaborate?

Would you care to elaborate?

No, not on this one, but if what I have been told is true then it isnt anything particularly sinister nor something directly associated to his footballing conduct.

He was sick then?

I have been told it wasnt illness, just a club/personal issue that seems to be resolved.
