Title: Richard O’Kelly
Post by: NickDRFC on October 16, 2018, 07:27:29 pm
Was just reading an article on the BBC about that lovely chap John Terry and he mentioned that he was looking forward to learning from Villa’s assitant manager, Richard O’Kelly. I hadn’t realised he had followed Smith to Brentford let alone Villa, potentially he could emulate SOD and be on a Premier League bench in the next couple of years.

He is a very good and well respected coach. I think SOD owes a lot of his success to O’Kelly.

Definitely. They were a great team.

Makes you wonder how much was down to ROK when you look at SOD’s career without him.
I will be eternally grateful to them both for the success they brought us.
Wish ROK the best of luck at Villa hope he has more success

ROK was a lot of fun - remember saying to him when he grew a beard for charity the club were supporting at the time - that it looked like his head was upside down - he thought it was funny

Played golf with him at one of rovers' golf days - played off about 7 and went round Bawtry Golf course to par that day - a lovely funny bloke, great coach and damn fine golfer too! Good luck to him in whatever he does inside (and outside) the game!
