In Conversation With.. Paul Watson | The Awards Debrief

Author and football writer Paul Watson catches up with Tom Canning for a post-Berkshire Football Awards debrief after a brilliant debut event.

Join Paul Watson and Tom Canning for a Berkshire Football Awards ‘debrief’.

Awards night host Paul reflects on an event he clearly loved being a part of, his favourite moments and who he’ll be keeping an eye on this season.

There’s his Darren Barnard connection (Wokingham Town fans you’ll enjoy this), kit chat, and Kitson chat, plus Greenland football and what he means when he said ‘Chris Ellis knew exactly what was coming’.

Then there’s also a proposed stay at the YMCA (Reading-branch). But you’ll have to listen along to find out more.

Berkshire Football Stories is available as part of this Substack newsletter or wherever you get your podcasts.

Coming up:

We’ve got Mark Ashwell talking about the rebirth of Wokingham Town and Emma Hopkins on her new role with Reading FC Women as part of the Community Trust. Neither episode has been recorded yet so do get your questions in in the comments - and do let us know your thoughts on this latest edition with Paul Watson.
