Casual Football Chats - Ep 6 - Neil Bennett

Neil Bennett describes himself as a husband, father, one time marathon runner and tragic Arsenal fan, but he's more than that. Firstly, he knows a thing or two about the weather, but more importantly he's played a part in coaching some of the best players the NPL has seen and played just a big a part in documenting the women's game too.

In this chat, we dance through time talking about the origins of his love affair with football, the familiar migrant story of moving to Australia and finding community through sport and his unlikely journey from reluctant youth football coach to reluctant State champion.

We also finish off the interview by Kelechi throwing him under the bus and asking him for the best XI that he's witnessed here in WA! 

Time flew and you're in for a treat listeners.
