from I Had Trials Once... · host I Had Trials Once...

This week Jordan & Gaz are joined by former Blackburn Rovers, Birmingham City and Oldham Athletic midfielder...DAVID DUNN! A huge shoutout to CAPO for sponsoring the pod, check them out below 👇 https://capouk.com/ David sits down with the boys to discuss all things football from his life growing up and representing his boyhood club Blackburn Rovers to his time as a football manager and coach. The lads start the pod by discussing how David and Gaz know each other from their youth football days in Lancashire before Dunny reveals he actually started out at Blackburn's rivals Burnley before making the switch. David then talks about his time in the England set up playing alongside Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard and John Terry in the U21s, being on standby for the 2002 World Cup and finally receiving his senior England cap. Dunny then speaks in great depth about his time at Blackburn Rovers, from his making his first team debut to training ground bust ups with Martin Darlin and why Paul Gascoigne said a young David Dunn was the nearest thing he'd ever seen to himself! They then chat about the hard decision to leave Blackburn, accidentally telling Sir Bobby Robson to f**k off on a phone call and almost joining Valencia & Chelsea before eventually settling at Birmingham where he eventually struggled with injuries throughout his time. The trio then discuss Dunny's move back to Blackburn and how he almost joined Big Sam's Bolton Wanderers, what nights out with Roque Santa Cruz & David Bentley were like and why Patrick Vieira is the toughest player he's ever payed against. Finally they end the pod chatting about Dunny's move in to coaching with spells at Oldham, Blackpool, Barrow, Fleetwood and Port Vale. 🔗 Join our Patreon below for as little as £3 a month and get access to all of the best unfiltered and unedited stories that normally have to be cut! 👇 https://www.patreon.com/IHadTrialsOnce/membership Learn more about your ad choices.
