Anyone given Dion's new podcast a listen? Strachan is the guest on episode 2. Its surface level stories rather than anything that digs into their time here, but some nice stories anyway. I enjoyed hearing how Strachan would spend hours setting up training for Big Ron to 'ruin it' by strolling in late and deciding to have an 8 a side (in which he played) instead.
Speaking of Big Ron (and for those who can't be bothered to listen through the whole podcast), they also said that in those 8 a sides he would make the team guess which famous player he was playing as that day. On one day he said to Strachan, 'I was out late last night, I'm tired, I can't run, can't tackle, my touch has gone...so today I'm going to be David Rennie.' Made me smile.
I can't seem to link it here but Dion has tweeted about it, so you can find the link there easy enough. It's called The Gaffer Tapes.
