Supple Fancies Second Scottish Spell

On-loan keeper Shane Supple says he would welcome another move to Scotland next season – if he's not in the Town side. Supple finally made his Falkirk debut on Saturday, keeping a clean sheet in a 0-0 draw with Gretna.

Supple said: "I made my Ipswich debut when I was 18 and I've played more than 35 times for the club. I love it there.

"It would be fantastic to play for them in the Premiership, but they'll bring in a big name if they go up and I don't want to waste another year of my career waiting on the sidelines.

"I'll have to go back to Ipswich and have a chat about my future, but if the chance to return to Scotland came up I'd definitely be interested.

"It's important at this stage of my career that I'm playing regularly and the SPL is a decent standard. It would be nice to play in the Premiership, but I need games."

Meanwhile, ex-Town skipper Matt Holland has been named Charlton's Player of the Year for 2007/08, receiving more than half of the votes cast by Addicks supporters. The Blues hold their Players' Awards dinner at Trinity Park on Tuesday evening.

Elsewhere, former striker Marcus Stewart says he's looking to be a top coach once his playing career is over: "My aim is to be the best coach in the country.

"That's my ambition, and if you don't set your sights on the very top, it's not worth bothering, is it?

"I always set my goals as a player and I made a mark on the Premiership. That's what I want to do all over again on the coaching side."

Stewart's Yeovil deal is up in the summer and the 35-year-old is already working on his level three coaching badge. The Bristolian, who has been playing in midfield for the Glovers this season, says he would be interested if a club was to offer him a player-coach role for 2008/09.
