Paul Caddis Interview

Join us for a special interview with Hereford FC manager Paul Caddis.Your hosts Tom Gough and KD Rai ask about Paul’s time as a player, specifically at Celtic, Birmingham City and Swindon Town, as well as some of the great managers he has worked with namely Gordon Strachan, Paulo Di Canio, Gary Rowett.We get some great insight into how he has found life in management at Hereford FC and about the culture he has instilled at the club, including the challenges of working with a part-time playing squad and the fantastic support the club has.We put some of your questions to the Hereford FC manager - including his favourite matches from last season, how he leans on experience within the squad and most importantly, whether he chose the stadium music at Edgar Street.Finally Paul talks to us about a cause that is close to his heart, Diabetes UK, and how his daughter has been a huge inspiration to him. This was filmed on Edgar The Bull’s birthday who is walking 1.7 million steps from Lands End to John O’Groats to raise money for Diabetes UK, Junior Bulls & the Hereford FC squad builder. You can sponsor Edgar The Bull here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/edgars-17-million-steps-lands-end-to-john-ogroats-walkYou can donate to Diabetes UK here: https://donate.diabetes.org.uk/donate/------------------------------------00:00 - Intro00:35 - Euro 2024 - England & Scotland02:26 - Paul Caddis - How I Got Into Football03:39 - Celtic FC & Champions League08:56 - Gordon Strachan09:50 - Gary Rowett11:20 - Paolo Di Canio & Swindon Town12:46 - Birmingham City15:22 - Scotland National Team19:10 - Why Management?20:45 - Becoming Hereford FC manager23:10 - Toughest parts of management31:10 - Noise at Edgar Street33:34 - ‘No excuse’ culture38:00 - Fan Questions: Best Goal39:05 - Walk-out Music42:13 - Toughest game last season45:51 - Best Home & Away Games52:34 - Experience in the squad54:25 - Favourite aspect of management56:12 - New contract58:50 - Edgar The Bull & Diabetes UK1:02:15 - A present from the London Bulls------------------------------------Follow us or get in contact via:YouTube:  @LondonBulls  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BullsofLondon/ X/Twitter:⁠https://twitter.com/ldnbulls⁠Instagram:⁠https://www.instagram.com/ldnbulls/⁠TikTok:⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@ldnbulls⁠✉️ Email:⁠[email protected]⁠🎧 Listen and Subscribe on:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1yR2C0CXsnQcgXihCSsxvE?si=aa472e23d3584b7cApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-london-bulls-podcast/id1740085118also available on other podcast services.------------------------------------Hosts: Tom Gough, KD RaiMedia: Jamie Klein------------------------------------*The views stated in this podcast do not represent those of Hereford FC.*They are just the views of people with far too much time on their hands, clearly.
