With another international break upon us, Alex, Ciaran and Pavan take a trip down memory lane and build 5-a-side teams with our favourite retro players. From legendary Spaniards like Casillas and Puyol, to midfield maestros in Kaka and Bergkamp, and scintillating strikers in Weah and Eto'o, we serve up plenty of footballing nostalgia. Can we identify regen players for our iconic heroes, or has the modern game eroded some of the artistry and expression our childhood players possessed? Let us know if you guessed correctly in this week's instalment of 'Suitcase of a Superstar' and remember to tune into University Radio Nottingham every Friday 6pm-7pm to hear your flight crew preview the biggest fixtures from around Europe! We hope you enjoy this European Football podcast, brought to you from the nation's BEST STUDENT RADIO STATION as named at the Student Radio Awards on Wednesday night

Jack joined BBC Radio 1 in September 2018, playing rock and alternative music from emerging artists. He now hosts the Future Artists show Monday to Wednesday 10pm – midnight and Radio 1's Indie show on a Thursday. Jack began his journey on Nottingham Trent University's student radio station Fly FM. After being appointed Station Manager, Jack lead the station to its best ever Student Radio Awards haul of nine nominations: five golds and one bronze. He won the first ever SRA Selector competition in his final year at university and got the chance to present on Ibero 90.9 in Mexico City. Sombreros, tequila and radio - doesn't get better than that! Jack joined Kerrang! Radio in the summer of 2014, and went on to join Radio X in 2015 as their Early Weekend Breakfast presenter. In less than a year, Jack covered the Radio X Evening Show, weekday afternoons and The Chris Moyles Show, before securing his own mid-morning slot on Radio X. Jack also promotes his own monthly gig night named Hopscotch. Recent gigs have featured names such as The Amazons and Frank Cater & the Rattlesnakes. Jack took Hopscotch on a UK wide tour in 2018 and 2019 which concluded on a special end-of-year gig at renowned Scottish venue, King Tut's Wah Wah Hut. He recently appeared on Channel 4's Celebrity Gogglebox for Stand Up to Cancer, alongside Yungblud. Since 2017 Jack has worked with MTV, interviewing Green Day, Ed Sheeran and Biffy Clyro and in 2o2o he took on the role as host of MTV Rocks – a countdown of the week's biggest singles based on sales, streaming and airplay data. A competent host, he has also presented the UK Blog Awards. An avid gamer, Jack took 2020's national lockdown as an opportunity to use the growing Twitch platform to connect with fans and so Quarantine Karaoke was born. Sunday nights were transformed as artists joined Jack for a live stream of karaoke, chat and more karaoke. Jack is also a supporter of the mental health charity MIND and has recently hosted a panel for the highly successful iWeigh movement. @jackxsaunders Host: Jamie Neale @jamienealejn Discussing rituals and habitual patterns in personal and work life.

Episode 22 of 99% Perspiration Joanna Makepeace-Woods knows a thing or two about powerful pitching. She gained her previous role, Talent Development Manager at the University of Sunderland, through pitching it to the staff there. They were so impressed, so inspired, that they devised the role specifically for Joanna, and she's been there ever since. Now Joanna is the Employability Manager with the university’s Arts, Design and Media faculty, and works with graduates and students to get them into the workplace. She understands well the importance of networking, and getting your name out there. I’ve listened to your feedback - some of you told me you wanted to hear more from people who help develop creatives, rather than just from creatives themselves; and Joanna Makepeace-Woods is just that person. Joanna also worked in multiple TV roles, mostly in the production office, so this episode should be particularly interesting if you're interested in getting more stuck in with TV. ---------- A little aside: I mentioned here in the description (but alas, not on the podcast) last episode that my radio drama, SeaBurn, was been nominated for "Best Speech Programming" at the Student Radio Awards 2015, one of 8 nominations from Spark FM in Sunderland, the community radio station I volunteer with. I'm hugely happy to report that SeaBurn received a bronze award for "Best Speech Programming"; we couldn't have lost out to a better programme though, the incredible Both Sides of Dying by radio producer Jordy Cernik took the gold. And Spark itself received a bronze for "Best Radio Station". A very good day, and thanks for your support, everyone! ---------- More ways to get in touch with 99% Perspiration: Join our growing creative network on Facebook Follow us on Twitter for all the latest updates - @99Podcast We post extra content on our official website - 99Podcast.com ---------- About 99% Perspiration: Weekly advice from today's creative and artistic professionals - FOR tomorrow's.
