What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Just before we get started, a quick thanks to our partners and clothing. We hope you enjoy the show. Are you working on the World Cup, Ange?
Sort of thinking about it, yeah. Because I don't know what I'm doing work-wise.
For ITV again or for...? Not sure yet. It's kind of disgusting, yeah. Did you enjoy the last one?
I don't mind it. I don't like kind of... the in-between, like filling up your time in between. So if there's games on, it's all right. But yeah, I don't mind. Mate, look, I'm kind of an introvert by nature, but football-wise, I can talk.
What insights does Ange share about his upbringing in Australia?
Yeah. Do you want to have a tea? Yeah, I'll have a tea. Thank you, mate.
Do you know something, Andrew? I was thinking about that, you know. Thanks, man. It's more than hammering, to be fair. If you're playing Saturday, Wednesday, Saturday, you're doing Friday interviews, you're doing Saturday after the game, you're doing Tuesday before the game, you're doing Wednesday night after the game, you're doing Friday before the Saturday. And I just did it for four months and we had, believe it or not, we were in the Europa League and the Copa del Rey and I remember it was killing me. I said this to you before, aren't I? Those six press conferences a week were killing me.
I did 130-something last year. Wow. Because we had 60 games. So I did pre, post... posts you could do four or five. Yeah. And sort of the individual ones. So I would have done between 130, 100. And mate, you know what?
It drains you, doesn't it?
It does. And you're going to say some stupid things in there, but you're not always going to get it right, you know?
We were talking about when you're playing Saturday, Wednesday, Saturday as a manager.
Yeah.
Andy said he did 130 press conferences last year because he did 60 games in the Europa League.
What regrets does Ange express about his coaching decisions?
And I remember, to be fair, you were at one of my last press conferences. Yeah, your last one in Barcelona. I got beat 7-0 by Barcelona. Oh, I was there.
So he just interviewed Suarez.
It's actually... If you go on YouTube, you'll see that press conference. I mean, it was brutal. Oh, yeah. It was brutal.
When will you get out of our club? Really? Oh, yeah.
Do you know when you think sometimes, like, in this country, we ask difficult questions or sometimes pundits are a bit... Nowhere to be lied. Just watch that press conference back. It was... Do you not think you should... It started off with, like, do you not think you should hand your notice in? Do you not think you should resign?
Oh, my God.
And then it was... Then you were, like, the owner asking you the question. It was, like, when are you going to get out of this club? You know, when are you going to realise and be honest that you can't do this? It was literally, like, it was a barrage and it was, like, ten minutes of it, wasn't it? Yeah, yeah.
Great.
How does Ange reflect on his experience at Spurs?
What do you say if someone says that, though? Like, when are you going to get out of our club?
I still believe in the process. Project.
You can have a project.
This project is only just getting started. I always win in my first year, I was going to say. Stick to football is brought to you by Arm Clothing.
don't push this it's mad it's crazy i had the worst car in the world i used to pick up one of the greatest places picking up becks you know i don't know whatever kind of car because i'm driving Bentley now so you got your roots He's not scared of anything, mate. He's a winner. Does he cross the line? Yeah, he does. You know, he'd cross the line at training sometimes and the coaches go, oh, you know. I go, well, you go tell him. I'm not telling him. No one's going to talk to me about rivalry. I lived and breathed it up there. I remember the first year we won the double. Rangers were in the Europa Cup final. I got more text messages the night they lost the Europa Cup final than the one we won. To have a career, you're going to go through tough times.
And when you're going through those tough times, appreciate them. Because the unhappiest I've ever been is when I haven't been in the W. It's the old adage of, you know, success has many fathers and failure is an orphan.
