This week Gaz & Jordan are joined by former Forest Green, Coventry, Bury, Stevenage, Kilmarnock, Morecambe & Barrow defender...Chris Stokes!

Chris sits down with the boys to discuss all things football from starting at Bolton with Jordan to playing in THAT incredible coventry team.

Chris and the boys then speak about his time at Forest Green Rovers, representing England C and playing against Jamie Vardy and Andre Gray.

The lads then chat about Chris' big move to Coventry, their incredible team of superstars and how they somehow didn't achieve promotion from League One.

Chris then talks in depth about how his move to Bury quickly became an issue due to their financial struggles and how the team spirit lead them to promotion from League Two despite playing without pay.

The trio then discuss Chris' move to Stevenage which included various managers and their 'interesting' techniques from core work outs on the pitch after a game to roaring in the tunnel pre-match.

They then chat about the decision to play in Scotland, promotion with Kilmarnock and why Scottish fans are great.

Finally they discuss Chris' move back to England with Morecambe & Barrow before dropping back into non-league with AFC Fylde.
