FOOTBALLTony CoadeLessons from Italy“After the first match I played in Brescia, I wentto the club bar, and knocked down a few beers,like we all used to do in Ireland.”Tony Coade, Lewes FC coach, newly appointedas joint manager since Darren Freeman stooddown in October, is telling me about the steeplearning curve he underwent when, as a youngman, he started playing in Italy, back in the 80s.“I didn’t speak a word of the language, but Isensed that I’d done something wrong, and Irealised that no-one else was drinking. Thatthe other players were looking at me funny, andthinking ‘what’s he up to?’ From that day on,in the five years I played in the country, I didn’tdrink another drop.”Tony had only meant to spend a couple of weeksin Italy, but he fell in love with the country, anddecided he had to stay, come what may, for muchlonger. Without a word of Italian, he realised theonly job he could possibly get was in football.He’d played up to the top level in his nativeIreland – for Cork Celtic – and managed to getinto a semi-pro team based in Brescia.“I became super-fit and had a really good rest-ofseason, scoring 17 goals in 15 games, from centralmidfield,” he tells me. “I got noticed. And apro club, Palazzola, in Serie C1 (the third tier ofnational football) gave me a contract in the summer.I ended up playing there for three years,alongside some fantastic players, and everythingabout my life changed.”It wasn’t just the drinking culture that was different,in Italy. “Italian football was very defensiveminded at that time,” he says. “If you wentPhoto by James Boyes1-0 up you were expected to shut up shop andmake sure not to concede, rather than to keepon attacking. I was an attack-minded player, butI learnt such a lot about the defensive side of thegame. Being a good player isn’t only about whatyou can do with the ball. It’s also about knowingwhat to do when you don’t have it.”Tony moved back to England in 1989, but henever reached the same heights in English football.He finished his career at Newhaven Town,opting to retire when he suffered a long-terminjury, at the age of 28.I never dropped out of football entirely,” hesays, “and ten years ago, with the support of mywonderful wife, I decided to take my coachingbadges.” An eventful spell at Peacehaven Town –as coach, then manager – led to his appointmentat Lewes, where he has been working for the lastfour years.So can we expect Lewes FC to set up like adefensive-minded 1980s Italian team? “We’rea footballing side who like to play attacking,passing football,” he smiles. “But you can be surethat my players will be working hard on theirshape, when they lose the ball. And we won’t gochasing glory when we’re 1-0 up.”Alex Leith111
