We FINALLY have a Head Coach on the podcast! Joining ex Hearts and MK Dons Head Coach, Robbie Neilson is Sports Scientist & S&C Coach, John Hill. These guys worked together both at Hearts and more recently at MK Dons. On the podcast, guests always talk about getting buy in from the Head Coach or delivering information to the Head Coach but we never actually hear his side of the story.
