Garry Thompson
Consultant Advisor

With a career spanning some 24 years, Garry has played over 600 games at the highest level. A fearsome centre forward, he was not only renowned for his aerial strength, but also for his tireless work ethic – an attribute which he now employs in his role as an advisor.

Having retired from playing, he has gone on to establish his coaching credentials working most recently at Brentford F.C. Throughout this time as player and coach he has built up a network of contacts in the game many would be envious of. This excellent pedigree in the sport has provided Garry with great knowledge and experience in the game, which is now being utilised successfully at Sillsport.

“Thommo’s” ability to motivate, guide and encourage players has already benefited many top stars, including Jason Roberts, Bobby Zamora and Nathan Ellington amongst many others.

He has a great eye for a player and is very well respected in the game. He is always well received by clubs not only in the U.K, but all over the World and his attitude and belief that players must have the correct mental approach towards the game is never lost on Managers and Coaches when recommending players to them. He understands there requirements and delivers against that criteria.
