Show Notes - The Jason Brisbane Episode

Episode Summary: To close out the first season of Jimmy’s & Jo’s we asked each guest to share a story or two from their time in football.

Sometimes funny, sometimes crass, sometimes heartfelt, each story gives our guests the opportunity to unwittingly give a glimpse into the people and situations that touched them the most.

Story Board:

· Jason Brisbane: Moped and ‘anti-drip’.

· Neil Bowles: Dehydration, injuries, and farmer strong violence.

· Rod Bradley: Carlstad and the Massive Kid.

· Nick Manning: The Champagne Massive and “Have A Fun”.

· Gareth Dauley: Amsterdam carnage and Scottish bonfires.

· Mark Moss: More Amsterdam and Copenhagen learnings.

· Nick Rockell: The London Blitz pivot point.

Final Thoughts: One reason the Amsterdam trip is so memorable and was so messy is that not only was it the team’s first European competitive game but it also fell on the anniversary of the death of much loved teammate Dan “Raiders” Dawson.

The very epitome of work hard-play hard, coaches Rockell and Moss made sure that while they coached players hard they also made sure there was fun to be had that would galvanize the core of a team to be more than the sum of it’s parts.

“Some of the craziest stories that ever happened to me, and after being in some wonderful stories in my lifetime, but the top 10 are always the Blitz” - Gareth Dauley
