Join Gary Rowett and Dave Carolan to peek behind the dressing room door and the training ground gate as we give you the insights and context into the world of football management and working inside football! With 2200 games between them, they have seen a lot - from Premier League to Non-League, countless players and staff, as well as millions of miles travelled across the length and breadth of English football. Not to mention all the training sessions, video sessions, S&C programmes, team meetings, pre-season trips and so on! There’s even a fair few pre-seasons to be reflected upon Each episode we will cover topics that perhaps most fans would like to know the reasons behind why certain things go on in football clubs -selections, injuries, transfers, results, etc. We will look to give you, the listener the context to bridge the gap between what you might think is going on and what actually is! So join us as we look to Break the Lines between the factual world of football and the fiction!

Many a Friday night has been whittled away in the environs of a *insert name of chain* Hotel by football teams across the world as the logistics of ensuring you're in the right town or city for the following days match kick in and the motorways are clogged with luxurious team coaches. But with perhaps 20 hours to kill before kick off, what does the team do?
The logistics of getting everyone to the hotel can be a challenge especially if the coach driver has their traffic radar set to Join Every Traffic Jam! The challenges of just getting out of London for example! You have a journey, before you begin your actual journey out of the capital to the other part of the country.
Catering for a professional football team is complex - dietary requirements, variety across a meal and a season and ensuring the Apple Crumble has enough crumble and just the right type of custard!
And then its prep for the game - the compulsory walk to nowhere, meetings galore and then off to victory… or at least thats the plan!
