This week Jordan & Gaz are joined by former Bolton, Bristol City, Preston, Rotherham, Accrington, Mansfield, Leyton Orient, Notts County, Crewe, Darlington & Ashton United fullback...NICKY HUNT! Nicky sits down with the boys in part one of his episode to discuss all things football from his time at Bolton Wanderers to his life now managing Daisy Hill FC. The lads start the pod by discussing Nicky's time at Bolton Wanderers, DJing for Ricardo Gardner, relaxing on Mario Kart with Gary Cahill & his wonder goal vs Liverpool Nicky then talks about his transition into being a football manager for Daisy Hill FC linking up with social media superstars Aaron Hunt & Angry Ginge to help take Daisy Hill through the leagues. Nicky and the lads then continue to chat about life in non-league, having to release players, huge squad sizes and other issues that come with the territory. They then chat about Nicky's early life in football from getting released at a young age and showing the determination to make it as a professional and getting caught on a night out and being suspended for two weeks by Bolton. The trio then discuss how tough reserve football used to be before Nicky made his first team debut and had the task of marking Ryan Giggs and then a young Cristiano Ronaldo. Finally they end the pod discussing why modern footballers can't do anything these days, the sacrifices Nicky had to make to become a pro and who were the defenders he looked up to in the Premier League. 🔗 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 🎧 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.
