When emotions run high on the touchline…

Peterborough United Chairman Darragh MacAnthony and long-suffering Bradford City supporter Philip Ideson shine a light on the hard truths behind the football industry.

On this week’s episode:

  • Winning in injury time
  • Verbals and making up with Joey Barton
  • Macclesfield Town’s debts
  • QPR and taking a knee
  • Can managers also be controversial pundits?
  • The first meeting with a transfer target
  • Advice on preparing for the next 12-24 months.
  • and much, much more…

Soundbite:

There has to be a rapport. There has to be some sort of personality. A lot of players are quiet. Their agents talk and the manager gives them like a presentation on where he sees them playing and how we play.

You like to see enthusiasm from the player, like to see him smile. You like to see that he wants to be there. And if you, if you kind of get a smell that he doesn't, that's a problem.
