The Hard Truth - Inside the Football Industry with Darragh MacAnthony

Darragh MacAnthony

Having bought a professional football club Peterborough United aged 29 and been in the game for nearly 15 years Darragh shares his opinions on all things football as well as business discussion in this weekly podcast. Brutally honest, direct opinion and insight of what happens behind the scenes, not in the public eye in the frantically busy and ever-changing world of football. Hence the name of the podcast being “The Hard Truth”
