“Be obsessive compulsive ring don’t keep banging on the same number all the time, open your mind to everything that’s what I always tell kids, don’t box yourself, it will happen, just keep doing what you do, enjoy it, embrace it and will happen if it’s meant to”
My special guest is Paul Wade. Paul is a legend of Australian soccer and former Socceroos Captain. He had 84 international caps for his country, 2 world cup qualifying campaigns, was an Olympian at the Seoul games in 1988 and won 2 NSL championships.
