We’re BACK with another I Had Trials Once episode and it's a belter!

Jordan & Gaz are joined by former FC United, Ramsbottom, Chester and Stalybridge goalkeeper Grant Shenton.

The boys discuss everything from Troy Deeney's recent sacking and how much worse gets said in non-league, as well as what life as a non-league player is actually like!

They then talk bust ups with the fans, signing on fees and being the only player not to be taken to Salford City with Bernard and Johnno and the infamous foot man.

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