The Famous Sloping Pitch with Nick Hancock and Chris England

Ep. 18 - Richard Bevan - Managing expectations

In our first ever remote podcast, Nick Hancock and Chris England discuss a possible F1-inspired improvement to football, the inevitable covid issues this week, Newcastle news, and the very odd Champions League draw. 
Nick and Chris are also joined by Richard Bevan, the Chief Executive of the League Managers Association. Nick, Chris and Richard chat about what the LMA do, how the role of the manager has changed over the years, bringing managers up through the academies, and inevitably Oldham come up too.

Nick Hancock and Chris England are old friends who have both been struck by the same soul-shattering thought: "how is it that everything that has changed about football since I started watching it has made it a little bit more s**t?".
