S4 Ep34: Manning the progress at Milton Keynes, and ‘loan rangers’ Hugill and Collins on the art of self belief and proving people wrong

He’s taken a slightly unorthodox route to Skybet League One management, but the skills he’s learnt in his coaching career in this country and beyond, have certainly equipped Liam Manning with the tools and the vision, to get MK Dons to where the club’s owner and the fans, want and expect them to be. 


Elsewhere, Clem catches up with two young strikers who’ve played for more than two dozen clubs between them before either has reached the ripe old age of 30, but who seem to have found the right fit this season in their respective squads. Jordan Hugill on loan from Norwich City and scoring regularly for Cardiff, and Newport born Aaron Collins crossing the Severn on a daily basis as top scorer for Bristol Rovers.
