Robbie Elliott Part 2 - Being First Is Not Always The Best

  • Summary

  • This week its part 2 of my chat with former footballer Robbie Elliott. Robbie spent two decades as a professional footballer, playing over 140 times for Newcastle United and over 250 appearances in total. Last week we chatted about his own playing career and some of the iconic managers he worked under including Ossie Ardilles, Kevin Keegan, Kenny Dalgleish, Sam Allardyce and Sir Bobby Robson. This week we focus on his career post playing from his role at Newcastle in the sports science department to moving to the US to join the Nike research lab and the other performance work he’s been involved since his retirement. It’s a fascinating and insightful journey.Show Notes: Mark Hulse - https://www.nufcblog.com/2009/06/27/coaches-hulse-and-elliott-leave-newcastle-for-liverpool/Nike Portland Headquarters - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pqsUfK2N1oNike European Headquarters - https://jobs.nike.com/ehqNike’s Innovation Kitchen - https://www.freshnessmag.com/2016/09/20/wired-magazine-nike-innovation-kitchen/England Rugby Sevens - https://www.englandrugby.com/england/sevens-men#indexSeb Coe - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sebastian_CoeLeBron James - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LeBron_JamesTiger Woods - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_WoodsLA Sports Teams - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_in_Los_AngelesRed Bull Facility - https://www.si.com/edge/2015/05/08/sweat-mecca-red-bull-high-performance-centerMalcolm Gladwell Books - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Malcolm-Gladwell/e/B000APOE98?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_2&qid=1653303486&sr=8-2The Checklist Manifesto Book by Atul Gawande - https://amzn.to/3G7Jk3m Maradona Documentary - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuErPYsoaR4Living With The Lions Documentary - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Living-Lions-Sir-Ian-McGeechan/dp/B0733RMVQ7One Night In Turin Documentary - https://www.amazon.co.uk/One-Night-Turin-Gary-Oldman/dp/B07N126MYGESPN 30 For 30 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/30_for_30More About Robbie Elliott:Twitter - https://twitter.com/robbieelliott3?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5EauthorLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/robbie-elliott-6971383b/Wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robbie_ElliottListen & Subscribe to The Ben Ryan Podcast:Ben’s Website - http://benryan.co.uk/bio/Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-ben-ryan-podcast/id1553400216Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/3iUL1eLA7HFKt5gxO7Uf4j?si=oN9YN6uFRSSGbO6kR01ONQAmazon Music - https://amzn.to/3shGDnOTuneIn - http://tun.in/pkdsmBen On Social:Follow me on Instagram - https://bit.ly/2Z5QSitFollow me on Twitter - https://bit.ly/3ph5W7oFollow me on LinkedIn - https://bit.ly/3ah8FtvRead about me - https://amzn.to/2NLu0Ck
