Podcast appearances and mentions of Brian Kidd

Host Carl Jones is joined by actor, comedian and Manchester United fan Marv Dickinson and comedia, Aston Villa fan and host of World Cup of World Cups and World Cup of Euros, James Cook to relive the 1998/99 season. There's the return of David Beckham from France '98 as public enemy number one, Paulo Di Canio pushing over a referee, John Hartson volleying a teammate in the head. Roy Evans budges up for Gerard Houllier in the Liverpool dugout, Big Ron takes his place in the wrong one and Brian Kidd waves goodbye to his seat on the bench at the beginnings of one of the greatest seasons recorded in club football to take Blackburn down instead. Dwight Yorke narrowly avoids being shot by John Gregory, David Unsworth avoids him altogether and Duncan Ferguson becomes the first (and last) player to represent Newcastle United with an Everton crest tattooed on them. There's also some great trivia, hilarious anecodotes and a slightly sombre greatest ever Premier League Cameroonian for reasons that will become apparent.  Enjoyed the show? Please subscribe, leave us a 5* review, subscribe on YouTube for video episodes and additional content and pass the pod to anyone who you think will enjoy it.

Portlanders may be familiar with Brian Kidd, the founder of Weird Portland United. He can be seen around town on a unicycle playing a bagpipe, often in a kilt.

Kidd joins us, along with Christine Lassiter, host of the "Finding My Own Weird" podcast.

This week on Footballland we're sending Cristiano Ronaldo into space and never bringing him back, we're setting up a creche overseen by Brian Kidd and 92 goats, and we're building a massive bouncy castle in the shape of St James' Park where YOU TOO can be washed by former Newcastle legends Les Ferdinand and Warren Barton! Who wouldn't want to be lathered up by a Toon great?The Ronaldo Rocket Cristiano Ronaldo loves that ridiculous Siiiiiiiuuu celebration, doesn't he? But the trouble is, he always lands on the ground afterwards. A not exactly impressive loyalty to gravity by the second greatest footballer in the world. So what if we nicked Jeff Bezos's rocket, chucked Ronaldo inside it after scoring a tap in, and gave him the ultimate Siiiu celebration? Brian Kidd's Kids Ryan brings us his vision of a creche manned by 92 goats, all with slightly different accents. Each goat will be responsible for ONE child, so you can leave your little ones to enjoy the park without your youngest spoiling the day. But NEVER acknowledge Brian Kidd's success at running a successful creche, you hear us? JUST DON'T DO IT. Bouncy Newcastle Hypnotising Sports WashYou know what the trouble is with taking over a Premier League football club to soften your nation's human rights image? Only fans of that club go along with the plan. There's way too much complaining from rival sets of fans. It's almost as if those fans need to be.... hypnotised?So, there's your three rides this week. Now it's your turn to get involved!

The flame-throwing, unicycling bagpiper, who is actually a cute, married, nerd named Brian Kidd, shared his newest initiative, Weird Portland United (WPU), ushering in a whole new chapter of Portland weirdness. Kidd also shared his unique collaboration with Portland Brewing, Unipiper Hazy IPA. Through its beer sales Portland Brewing. Unipiper Hazy IPA represents the first of Portland Brewing’s “Keep Portland Weird” year-round series of collaborations. The series features distinctly Portland collaborative brews with the aim of highlighting each collaborator’s contribution to keeping Portland weird. Since 2007 The Unipiper has been riding his unicycle around uniquely Portland attractions and festivals dressed as a variety of famous characters, from Darth Vader to Bigfoot, while playing a set of flame-throwing bagpipes. For this first beer in the series Portland Brewing will donate $5,000 to help kickstart Weird Portland United. WPU is a new nonprofit organization that will discover, support, and cultivate up-and-coming and long-standing purveyors of weird through official Weird Awards, an official register of Weird Historic Places, the Weird Portland Museum, tours of Weird Portland, a Weird Portland Festival, and more.

At the same time, he was learning how to play the bagpipe. He combined the two, added various costumes along the way and the Unipiper was born. Brian is launching a new project this month called Weird Portland United that he discusses with me on this week's podcast.

WE'RE BACK! Coming off our brief hiatus, we jump into the insane number of things that happened since Episode 10, including Rapsody and NC hip-hop in general on NETFLIX(!!) and the arrival of the new Kooley High album, “Never Come Down.” We're also talking to mixing engineer Brian Kidd, who is a living testament to the power of music. Not only did an early 2000's Consequence mixtape, and the song “I See Now,” featuring Kanye West and Little Brother, strengthen his resolve to one day work in music, it literally inspired him to move to North Carolina to see what 9th Wonder and the rest of the Justus League was getting up to. In our interview with Brian, he talks about working for free when you're starting out, shooting his shot on Twitter when he first arrived in NC, his thoughts on the new Kooley High album, and much more. ———— NEW ON THE SITE THIS WEEK!

What do you think the path to professional sports looks like? 22 year veteran coach at Manchester United, Tom Statham, shares what he has seen and experienced as the path over the last few decades. Spoiler alert…there is no defined path. Listen in for Tom’s explanation. Bio This is what Manchester United Academy has to say about Tom. “Tom has been coaching at Manchester United since 1994. He has coached boys from 7-18 years old and has worked with and learnt from great coaches such as Sir Alex Ferguson, Brian Kidd, Eric Harrison, Paul McGuiness, Tony Whelan and René Meulensteen. After achieving a degree in PE and Sports Science at Loughborough University, Tom began a professional career in football playing for Middlesbrough, Doncaster Rovers and Lincoln City. At the end of his professional playing career, Tom was approached by Manchester United and offered a position coaching the young players at the club. In over 23 years at Manchester United, Tom has seen the likes of Marcus Rashford, Jesse Lingard, Jonny Evans, Danny Welbeck, Michael Keane, Tom Cleverly, Danny Simpson, Danny Drinkwater and many others progress to become top professional players. The Football Association recognized Tom's work with young players when he received the award for Foundation Phase Academy Coach of the Year 2015. In terms of football player development, Tom has great knowledge, experience and an excellent reputation. Aligned to that, he is a kind, caring, reliable and extremely trustworthy human being who loves his football and has a mission to ensure that young players develop a love and passion for football that has sustained him all these years. 23 years service in the Academy at Manchester United is a remarkable achievement. I first met Tom in 1994 when he joined what was then the Centre of Excellence at Manchester United as a part-time coach. Since this time he has made an immense contribution to player development at the club with his football knowledge, experience, work ethic, energy, loyalty and enthusiasm for working with young people. In over 20 years working at the club, Tom has gained a deep awareness of the history, values and culture of this great institution which he embodies in everything he does when coaching young players. Over the years, Tom has helped our youth department to expand and grow in a range of areas including: syllabus and curriculum development, coach education, pastoral care and parent liaison. He was also hugely instrumental in assisting me to drive what has since become a hugely influential project/initiative - our 4 V 4 U9 project in the summer of 2002. His advice, guidance and valued wisdom has seen it become an integral part of the technical development program in the Academy. What a wonderful legacy for any coach to pass on to the next generation! In terms of player development, Tom has a CV par excellence. Aligned to that, is a kind, caring, reliable and extremely trustworthy human being who loves his football, cares about people, and has a mission to ensure that folk young and old develop the love and passion for soccer that has sustained him all these years. 22 years service in the youth department at any football club is a remarkable achievement - at Manchester United - well that really is the stuff of legends - I rest my case! It has been my distinct privilege and honour to have worked closely with him all these years at this truly amazing football club.” Tony Whelan - Head of Academy Coaching, Man United   Show Notes 6:50 Tom’s professional career and start in coaching 13:05 Try not to coach when the ball is rolling 24:40 Learning to accept that each kid is different and we must coach the individuals 36:15 There are qualities that athletes MUST possess 47:00 Tom discusses the importance of play in a team warm-up 58:35 Football is the easy part of coaching… Get in Touch (Tom will be at the United Soccer Coaching 2018 Convention in Philadelphia.

Danny Webber is the latest guest on the United We Stand podcast. The former Manchester United, Port Vale, Watford, Sheffield United, Portsmouth, Leeds, Doncaster Rovers and current Accrington Stanley striker meets Andy Mitten in a Manchester bar to talk about his life and career. Webber, 31, talks about refusing to sign for Manchester City, about Sir Alex Ferguson, Nobby Stiles and Brian Kidd. About cleaning Andy Cole's boots and the highs and many lows in a career which saw him play across the divisions. The Manchester lad remembers Sheffield United's greasy chip butty and the meltdown at Portsmouth, where they were nervously told, “I'm sorry, you're not getting your wages.” What nearly happened next would have shocked football. Webber is an entertaining and articulate guest. Enjoy.
