Dave Kitson interview

[Forbury Lion]

The Price of Football Podcast has an interview today with "Dave Kitson, former Reading player, now national team manager of Pacific Island Nauru"

Not listened to it yet, but my guess is he'll be talking a bit about Reading rather than any of his other clubs as they were omitted from the title.

Probably fair to say the both Kits and a good proportion of the ST postcode would be happy about him not discussing his time in the Potteries.

He seems to grown up a bit as at the time off the pitch he was a bit a tool

Wtf

He explained it really well, He's not the real manager he's just a name to get publicity. The island has an obesity problem and they love the Premier League. The plan is to get them playing football and improve their fitness and health, no ambitions like winning games or qualifying for anything but they do hope to one day setup a league similar to UEFA/AFCON for the islands around that part of the world. They're working with what they have on the island as no point flying those from Australia/other places who qualify in because it'll take them a week to get there, a week to get back and whose going to pay for that and it isn't going to help the health and wellbeing of those on the island

The country is an island which takes weeks to get to, you have to fly to China and then commute for a week.

The islanders are wealthy as there was a large supply of phosphates there so it was mined, everyone became mega rich overnight and stopped farming and working so they import all their tinned food (no fresh as it takes too long to arrive) and the combination of not working and eating badly caused an obesity issue.

The Chief of Police ordered a Lamborghini with some of his windfall, by the time it arrived on the island he was too fat to get in it so had to sell it.

The manager of a neighbouring island lives in Oxford, so they might share the same commute.

Caversham United might be one of their opponents, Dave having made a return to playing recently with them (scored some goals). I guess that all depends on the players managing to take 4 weeks off work to get there and back and to cover the travel cost.


He did talk a bit about Reading and how great it was, How Sir John got it right long before anyone else did and proved you don't need to overspend to get success, just round pegs in round holes etc.

He's really into the goings on behind the scenes running and managing a football club off the pitch and has done so with a village football team and helped turn their fortunes around so they make money. I think if he was to return to the club it would be in this capacity rather than coaching or managing, however he said he has started coaching kids and enjoys it, He's coaching them to do what he thinks they will need to do as a player in 10 years time when they're old enough to play rather than what players today need to do.

Pre-season tour then, meanwhile Reading will be playing (and probably losing to) various amateur sides in the UK for their preseason.
