We are joined by former manager Aidy Boothroyd who was only the second manager to get us to the top flight! We hear about his initial football memories and him starting his coaching career following injury before Carl dials in from holiday to say hello and thank Aidy for his time!

Once Carl leaves to top up his tan, Aidy goes through his memories of the make up of the Play Off core squad and the common threads be it development or first team football of helping players to achieve individual and collective goals. Innovation is a word that often comes up when talking to Aidy’s former players and we go through some “different” things that went on at the time from working in the shop, penalty shootout practice, board breaking and fire walking!! We discuss getting managers jobs and how Keith Burkinshaw came into the equation and why he was Aidy’s mentor even before the Watford job!!

Part 2 out soon as we talk memories of the play off season, semi final and finals and much more

COYH!!!
