About this episode

Back-to-back GK eps for you guys on the Fozcast and this time we have big John Ruddy! In this episode, John gives us some behind the scene access to what happened at Birmingham City during the past season with Wayne Rooney coming in to replace John Eustace and how the players found out… John also talks to us about Tom Brady, including his impact on the football club and how he has a clear vision of where they want to go in the next five years!

Moving away from Birmingham, I remind John about that FA Cup Semi-Final in 2019 where Watford came from behind to beat Wolves 3-2. Plus, find out about John's biggest regret in his footballing career…

We also answered some of your questions from Instagram too, so keep your eyes peeled on the Fozcast Instagram for a chance to ask a question in the future!

This episode was a belter so we hope you enjoy!
