RIP Gordon Banks: 1937-2019
Marlow told Banks that his son, Lucas, who was eight at the time, played in goal and his response was brilliant.The advice never made it into the story but he transcribed it for his son and it is still on his bedroom wall today.Marlow posted the words from the former Leicester City and Stoke City stopper following the announcement of his death on Tuesday.Hello Lucas, your dad told me that you want to be a goalkeeper? Good lad. We always need good goalkeepers. Here’s some advice from me…“First of all, you have to work hard. Being a goalkeeper is not easy.“But the more you play, the more you practice, the easier it gets.“The more you play, your eyes will get better at spotting the angles. You will begin to know where the ball will go. This is called anticipation – great goalies have good anticipation.Gordon Banks died at the age of 812

“The eyes pick up the direction of the ball, how it floats through the air, and send messages to your brain and then to your hands. Keep practising – and you’ll get better and better at this.“Always know where you are in the goal, narrow the angles down, make it as hard as possible for the striker to score.“Play with a smaller ball. Playing with a bigger ball will seem much easier if you’ve been used to playing with a smaller one.“Play games like table tennis – that will help to sharpen up your reflexes and your hand-eye co-ordination. Throw a tennis ball against the wall and catch it. “And be brave – you have to be brave to come out for crosses, or dive at the feet of a centre forward trying to score past you.“And be brave, too, if you lose or make a mistake. We all make them – I made some mistakes – but I never let anyone see that I was upset. Good luck Lucas.”
