We're back with another episode of I Had Trials Once and this time we're joined by former Sheffield United, Bury, Plymouth, Sunderland, Crewe, Wrexham & Radcliffe defender...Callum McFadzean! Cal sits down with Gaz & Jord to discuss everything from dropping into non-league to play with Jordan at Radcliffe to those viral promotion parties in Las Vegas with Wrexham. The lads start the pod discussing how Callum is enjoying life at Radcliffe, how the move came about and what it's like playing alongside our very own Jordan Hulme. Callum then talks about his early life in football at Sheffield United, getting scouted by Real Madrid, representing England U16s with Raheem Sterling & also making his first team debut for his boyhood club. The trio then chat in depth about why Callum made a mistake joining Kilmarnock, dropping into non-league with Alfreton & Guiseley as well as what it was actually like at Bury during their turmoil period before they went bust. Callum then speaks about his time at Plymouth, why he struggled being so far away from his family & the experience of playing for a huge club in Sunderland. Finally they end the pod talking about how Callum's move to Wrexham came about, that journey from National League to League One, the brilliance of Ryan Reynolds & Rob McElhenney & those viral promotion parties in Las Vegas. 🔗 Join our Patreon below for as little as £3 a month and get access to all of the best unfiltered and unedited stories that normally have to be cut! 👇 https://www.patreon.com/IHadTrialsOnce/membership A HUGE shout out to CAPO for sponsoring this weeks episode of the podcast - Check them out 👇 https://capouk.com/ 🎧 You can listen to the full episode wherever you normally get your podcasts via the link below! https://podfollow.com/i-had-trials-once 📳 Make sure you Like, Comment & Subscribe & turn on notifications so it lets you know when a new episode drops.
