  • Close Season Special 2: Charyl Chappuis
    Jun 29 2024

    Dale sits down for a candid chat with Swiss born Thailand international, Charyl Chappuis. The two cover his early days, his family, his thoughts on Newin Chidchob and Buriram Utd, ex-players becoming referees, the sacrifices he's made to get to the top, where he goes from here, the book he could have written (!!) and much more. It's a great listen and a fascinating insight into the life of one of the country's most high profile players.
