#278: TV’s Robbie Willmott

Hot off the heels of our interHuw (episode #277), we’re bringing you another chat - this time, with bonafide Newport legend, and newly-appointed Newport City manager, Robbie Willmott.Robbie takes us through his two stints at the club, including those memorable games where he lit up the small screens with breathtaking performances. He also speaks candidly about his approach to management and the coaches who inspired him. Plus, after two seasons playing for Barry Town, his thoughts on the calibre of the Cymru leagues in light of the club’s recent recruitment strategy.There is also a news EXCLUSIVE - but you’ll have to listen to find out!Huge thanks to Robbie for coming on, and for being so open and honest with us. We think it’s a fascinating insight into being a pro footballer.You can check out our interviews with other County legends Mark O’Brien (episode #238) and Joss Labadie (episode #231).We'll be back with more summer content over the coming weeks, likely dropping a new episode every fortnight (roughly). In the meantime, check out our website for all the pod info you need, and drop us a line on the socials if you have anything to tell us. As usual, our theme tune is the original 1973 recording of Come On The County - and we are brought to you in association with our friends at the Riverside Sports Bar.Until next time, look after yourselves and each other, and above all Keep It County.
