Doddsy and Brayer welcome Dave Jones, ex Saints, Wolves and Cardiff manager. It goes without saying that being a manager is a highly demanding and precarious job with constant scrutiny from every direction, including owners, staff, players and fans.  Everyone is demanding success and anything less only increases the level of pressure.

Doddsy and Brayer talk through Dave's career from his early days as a player at Everton and the subsequent successful eighteen year managerial career. We learn about change management, player management, the academy system, finance, moving grounds and how the structures of clubs are far more complex that one might ever think. 

Listen and learn from this great strategic thinker and manager Dave Jones. Enjoy.
