Night King Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I quite enjoyed Roman Vines 2 episodes. The first 10 minutes or so is a complete car crash, but after he calms down a bit some of his stories are hilarious. Listened to Alex Bruce’s yesterday in the car and it was so dull in comparison to Vines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he did calm down to be fair. And some of his stories were decent. A bit full of himself though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember much about him as a player. I remember him playing against us for Portsmouth around the time that we had got relegated from the premiership and I remember him briefly at QPR.

OohAahGuyWhittingham Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 I quite enjoy the hellraisers... Johnson, Rogers, Vine etc. Maybe they're not as annoying when you're only listening to them. Weaver's I enjoyed, also Michael Gray speaks well and has good stories. As with many on here, Ben Marshall was a complete shock. I thought he was just a quiet lad. It explains how his career has gone though. Sedgwick was boring as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The think that got on my nerves about Vine was how he kept going on about him being controversial and speaking his mind and not quiet like some of the others. Then didn’t really say anything too out there. It was all pretty standard stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gparrish Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 The Tommy Spurr one on Patreon is pretty interesting how affected he was by the crowd. Megson doesn't come across that well mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gparrish Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Anyone listened to the Gordon Watson one? Thought it was really good, decent stories from his time at Wednesday. He's now presenting American Sports on Costa Rican TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEnchanter Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Ben Marshall one was interesting. Seems he just liked to go out on the lash all the time, often during the week. He often came into training pissed and got away with it. Megson seemed to turn a blind eye. Also he states that he was desperate to sign for us but we never once put an offer in. Remember how long that saga went on for and also how a lot of our fans presumed he'd snubbed us. He said he gets stick for it but he wanted to move. Funnily his drinking has caught up with him and he's now playing sunday league and he's not even 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed like he only wanted to sign for us because he had an easy life at Wednesday! To be fair, if he’s producing every Saturday (which he was) its sign of good man management from Megson.

Not in the long-term though, hence why he wasn't offered a permanent contract and how his career has turned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And depression was the only reason he stopped playing professionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t say his drinking caught up with him, but his mental health. And he plays Sunday League by choice. He said himself he had plenty of offers on good wages but he couldn’t have cared less cos he was so miserable. If his agent put his feelers out to clubs he’d get snapped up, at league one level definitely. Such a naturally gifted footballer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeonLeon Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 There was a story doing the rounds last January that Warne was jumping through hoops to try and persuade him to join Rotherham. In the end, like he says a few times in the podcast about other moves, he didn’t fancy the travelling every day from Manchester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigsheff Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 There are some really funny ones on there but as an actual interview/life story the Joe Thompson & Clarke Carlisle ones are well worth a listen. Emotional but enough humour also mixed in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
