We’re BACK with another I Had Trials Once episode!

Jordan & Gaz are joined by former Blackburn Rovers, Blackpool, Bradford, Salford & Dundee manager, Gary Bowyer.

The boys discuss everything from meeting the great Brian Clough for the first time to what that first time being sacked really feels like!

They then go into detail about the turbulent times working for the Venkys, Karl Oyston & the class of 92 before chatting about strange superstitions and what relegation actually means for a football club.

If you're wanting some classic non-league stories, then look no further!
