In this episode, we sit down with professional footballer Sam Lavelle to explore the journey behind the jersey. From his early beginnings and youth football dreams to his current role as central defender for Grimsby Town, Sam opens up about life on and off the pitch.

We dive into his experiences with managers and teammates, the responsibilities of wearing the captain’s armband, and the realities of training at the highest level. But beyond the game itself, Sam shares what truly matters most to him — his family.

It’s an honest and insightful conversation about the highs and lows of a footballer’s life — moments that go far beyond the ninety minutes on match day.

In the first episode of my new monologue series “Here’s what I think”... I talk about the ongoing atrocities in Gaza (despite the so-called ceasefire) and the global silence that has enabled those atrocities to continue. I argue that the true horror is not only the devastation itself, but the world’s complicity in watching a genocide unfold while doing nothing to stop it.
