ROKER RAPPORT PODCAST: With former Wales and Sunderland manager - Chris Coleman!

A tale of two podcasts...

We've been joined a couple of times down the line by Chris and unfortunately for all parties both attempts at recording encountered some significant "Pod killing" problems. After numerous attempts to fix the unfixable, we've decided to only fix what we can, any way we can.

The first ten minutes from our original conversation smoothly (ahem) transitions into the last 30 minutes or so of our last, covering his time at the helm of Sunderland during the fateful relegation season, his lack of contact with any Sunderland owners..ever.. and his opinion on the situation and where it all went wrong, as well as talk about his playing career, Eric Cantona's attempt at Kung Fu, the sad loss of a great man and friend of Chris' in Gary Speed, how difficult it was to take his dream job under those circumstances, and where he goes from here.

Sorry for the long wait since announcing the pod and as always, thanks for listening Lads and Lasses.
