Title: Podcast 4: This time it's Malpas Post by: pauld on Wednesday, August 20, 2008, 13:58:53 The fourth Trust podcast is now available from http://www.truststfc.co.uk/podcasts/ This is the first part of a chat with Maurice Malpas, recorded shortly before the pre-season tour of Austria (fortunately, the topics covered are, as always, timeless) and I think most fans will be interested to hear perhaps a slightly more revealing insight into the manager's approach to the game than the usual 2-minute soundbite or post-match quote would allow. For example, hands up who knew Maurice has a degree in electrical engineering? Well, there you are then - if nothing else, we at least know we've got someone qualified on hand to save us from matches being abandoned due to floodlight failure. Other topics covered in this first part include:
+MM's early career in football +Scotland's last part-time international +Scouting for players +Players' wages and attitudes to the game +Coaching and management Part 2 will be online shortly.

Fuse...... Title: Re: Podcast 4: This time it's Malpas Post by: janaage on Friday, August 22, 2008, 12:12:08 I thought the engineering thing was common knowledge at time of appointment. Didn't he finish his studying the year he started playing for Dundee Utd firsts? Something like that. Think that's why I didn't enjoy some of th ecomments aimed at the bloke when he first joined Town, it's quite clear he's not a fool but judging by some of the "welcoming comments" you'd have thought a village in Scotland was short of their local idiot.
