It's the penultimate episode in the series and David Prutton is in a pub in Nottingham, so no complaints from him on the choice of location! Prutts is there to meet Northampton Town manager Kevin Nolan, who's comfortably settled in Robin Hood Country, from his time in charge at nearby Notts County. The two look back fondly on a glittering playing career, that has so far transitioned into a very promising looking start in management, although Kevin is fully aware that it's early days and he's still learning his craft. Getting a bit too comfy in his pub surroundings, Prutts challenges Nolan to a game of darts, but it doesn't go well and it becomes clear very quickly, who'll be buying the first round of drinks as soon as the cameras stop rolling!

His beloved Posh have got a trip to Wembley to look forward to on Sunday, and this week Barry turned 80 years old, so it's a very good time for David Prutton to catch up with this gentleman of the game, who's got some of the best stories you'll ever hear!

S7 Ep5: Billy Sharp Unfiltered
Billy Sharp is a home town hero. A 'Roy of the Rovers' style striker in his native Sheffield and a blade through and through. On this episode, David Prutton travels to Billy's home turf to talk about a career that has not only seen him score more than 100 goals for his boyhood club, but also move away to the South Coast with Southampton and travel abroad to LA Galaxy, before returning closer to home with his current club Doncaster Rovers, who will always have a special place in his heart. This is a brilliant chat about what it means to be in the business of scoring goals, and understanding the feelings of the fans on the terraces.
