We're live in France and South Africa as our season 8 journey really gets motoring with us trying to figure out what's happening in Ligue 1 and the South African' premier division.
Show Notes
It's tough trying to be a pirate. Or at least for one of us trying to be a pirate.
On this week's podcast we're finishing out a lengthy pre-season for Orlando Pirates, Shane's new employer in South Africa, while Ken has missed pre-season with Toulouse by all bar one game so has to crack on and worry about Nantes, Marseille and PSG all in the space of a week or so.
We're discussing staffing woes and trying to get the right personnel from performance analysts to coaches and assistants when nobody really wants to make a move.
As we move through the South African season, one thing becomes very apparent - it's going to be *really* tricky to get some viable staff in and making any player adjustments. On the plus side, Shane is in yet another competition before the season properly kicks off.
And if you missed it last week, we wrote an actual blog post about what actually happened in Scotland. Give it a read.
