After a night marked by restless apprehension and thoughts about Shania, Dunn awoke to some great news:
Des Walker called to inform him that he had just been approved to join the English National Team as their Assistant Coach.
Dunn was so happy that, as he held the phone in one hand, he made the other into a fist and punched the air in a triumphant gesture.
With the Assistant Coach piece sorted, the puzzle surrounding England's team would become much easier to solve. The team generally sought Dunn's recommendations, as he was a man with remarkable stamina and had a great working knowledge of England's coaches. Now he would just need to find a new Goalkeeping Coach, and things would be settled. Dunn had a degree of mistrust for the current coach because under his supervision, England's goalies had not exactly been performing well. In his eyes, this had to be the root issue.
