BEV PRIESTMAN: The ban, the stress, and the COMEBACK | EP44 - The Unused Subs

Head coach of the Wellington Phoenix Women BEV PRIESTMAN is our special guest this week on The Unused Subs, and what a treat it was to spend time with this energizer bunny of a football manager. Things we cover off in this episode:* How she's adapted to the various injuries and unavailable players in her squad to put the Nix within striking distance of silverware* Bev's connection to New Zealand* Coping with the stress that came from the Olympics drone spying scandal* An update on Macey Fraser * How women's football can learn from the mistakes of the men's game* What it's like to win an Olympic gold medal... not that she ever received one for her efforts in Tokyo!Along the way, we're interrupted by two famous All Whites goal scorers who just happened to be sifting around our home ground of Tyler St Sport, and Paul Ifill does his best to contend with the heat and the lack of power in Honiara while on duty with the Samoan Women's national team... every now and then, he just intermittently drops off the call - sorry about that!PLUS! We reveal our 'SUBS FOR SUBS' initiative, where we offer to contribute cold hard cash for one lucky kiwi's NZ club football fees!
