We’re joined by former Northampton winger Josh Low.

Josh talks us through his eventful football career that took in multiple playoffs and promotions with rarely a dull moment.

He discusses growing up with Bristol Rovers, being part of the Gas setup that lost to Cobblers in the ’98 playoff Semi-Finals.

It’s fair to say that Josh found his best form at Sixfields under Colin Calderwood playing with such talent as Martin Smith and later Sean Dyche.

Low chats about the art of the winger and what built Cobblers into an automatic promotion team after two successive years of Playoff heartache.

An intelligent lad, Josh lays out how his thoughts turned to a career post football in the legal field and the difference of his current day job from the thrill of being a professional footballer.

The sport clearly runs in the blood though as Josh’s son is a talented footballer and he talks about the next steps for his capable offspring.

A very interesting listen from a thoughtful footballer.
