#202: Nelson Jardim speaks!
An exciting milestone for the pod, as Ian & Ed sit down with County's head coach, Nelson Jardim, for an in-depth chat about his roots, his influences, his footballing philosophy... and his wine recommendations! A must-listen episode for all County fans.
As Jamie says at the start of the pod, there's a lot going on behind the scenes at the moment as we switch from one media partner to another and also - very proudly - begin a partnership with the Riverside Sports Bar. We'll have a bit more info for you over the following weeks - but for now please bear with us if our usually regular release schedule is a little inconsistent. It will be worth it, we assure you! We'll bring you our in-depth round-up of recent games soon, hopefully including an Ian match diary from the boys' trip to Notts County on Saturday.
You can contact us via all the social media outlets - including now Bluesky as well - and you can also donate to our ko-fi if you'd like to support what we do. Thanks to Tinty & The Bucket Hats for letting us use Discoland as our theme tune. Keep It County!
