Really candid conversation with Charlie here about the challenges, uncertainties and pressures of one and two-year contracts when you’re a dad. We also talk about the physical challenges of having twins whilst playing for Cheltenham Town FC too - trying to train and play after a few hours sleep.
Ultimately, fans want their teams to win, but I do think we underestimate how difficult pro sport can be - particularly when you’re not financially set from your playing days. Charlie, 32, talks openly here about the future and what his next career could be. As someone who was lucky enough to do a fun job, but now I have to ‘go again’ I can certainly empathise with how daunting (and exciting) that can be.
