Very interesting and honest chat on his time with us, an insight into the psyche of a pro footballer when things don't go well and the impact that a crowd's reaction can have on players' performances. Also some great Royle/Magilton stories.
I know I'm biased as part of the BM team, but this really is a fantastic interview - Parkin really good and honest about his time here and clearly something he has reflected on a lot. Well worth a listen
Current players are media trained/programmed to the hilt, so I don't usually enjoy their interviews. Ex-players tend to let the shackles off more, but I'd say Parkin takes this to another level here.
From a football perspective, there is a great lesson on the importance of recruitment in this interview. Identifying the type of player you are signing and ensuring that they actually fit your system.
Away from the pitch, the Magilton and 'This Country' anecdotes made me chuckle. Great interview Benjamin Bloom.
