Coach's Testimony Shocks Inquest | Leicester News

In a shocking twist at Maddy Cusack’s inquest, her former coach Jonathan Morgan admitted calling her a “generally a liar” in an FA inquiry — a claim rooted in her failure to fully disclose the support she received from him to her family. Morgan denied ever shouting at her, clarifying he never raised his voice during their time at Leicester City. Cusack’s mother testified her daughter’s mental state plummeted after Morgan returned to her life at Sheffield United, describing a once-happy girl as devastated. Morgan, who arrived at Sheffield United in February, recalled a warm reunion with Cusack — despite her recent ankle injury setback — but noted a troubling shift by August: she appeared distracted and drained, though physically healthy. He stood by his coaching philosophy, insisting he fostered openness and was unaware of any player discomfort.
