In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I am speaking to Medical and Performance Solutions Specialist, Grant Downie. Grant is the first guest on the podcast who has been honored with the Order of the British Empire (OBE) and I can't believe that I nearly forgot to mention it in the episode. Grant comes on the podcast with 35 years experience having been at Glasgow Rangers FC, Middlesbrough FC and most recently with Manchester City as Head of Academy Performance. It was an absolute pleasure to speak to such a nice guy who has an incredible experience in professional football.
Hope you enjoy this episode with Grant Downie. If you did enjoy this episode, you may also enjoy these from Nick Grantham and Paudie Roche.
