Aaron Hunt | From Football Manager To Football Chairman, Drawsy Hill FC & Playing Twitch Bingo.
This week Jordan & Gaz are joined by content creator and Daisy Hill FC Chairman Aaron Hunt.
Aaron sits down with the boys to talk how he went from playing Football manager on his twitch stream to becoming the chairman of Daisy Hill Football Club.
Aaron and Jordan start the pod by explaining to Gaz what Twitch is, why it's so popular and how being big on Twitch, YouTube and TikTok has allowed him new opportunities.
Aaron then talks about how he got involved with Daisy Hill, from playing Football Manager as the club to being invited down by ex-manager Lee Hill to help try and save the club.
Aaron explains how he then became the chairman before helping to grow the profile of the club on social media by having other viral stars such as Steve Bracknall & Spud Bro's come down and help raise money to fund the club.
They then chat about the hard decision to let former manager Lee Hill go, why the recruitment wasn't good enough and playing football bingo on twitch with his viewers.
The trio then discuss the decision to bring in ex-Bolton defender Nicky Hunt as the new manager, releasing 12 players instantly and the changes he's made since arriving to daisy Hill.
Finally they end the pod discussing Daisy Hill's aims for the season and why despite their slow start they still think they can achieve play-offs this season.
