Tash Harding

Dai and Ruth were very lucky to be able to spend an hour with the brilliant Natasha Harding. The Welsh International and Reading player had a lot to discuss, as the recording was done on the day of the Women's Euro 2021 Qualifiers draw. There is a discussion about how Tash got into football, and how a chance meeting with Gwennan Harris's sister gave her a break in the game. Her current club Reading get discussed including Tash's less than favoured role as a wing back. They talk through Tash's Wales debut, her first goals (which turned into a hat trick!) and where she keeps her match balls! After that there is an open and in depth conversation on the recent draw for the Women's Euros 2019 and what everyone's expectations are. Each of the teams in the group (Norway, Belarus, Northern Ireland and the Faroe Islands) get a mention and Tash gives an interesting insight on what she sees as the Norwegians weaknesses, beyond the absence of Ada Hegerberg. Most importantly, there is a revelation which means the Coleman Had A Dream podcast has made the big time.....Dai is in the players whatsapp group. Sort of.
