BBC Radio Scotland - Sacked in the Morning, David Robertson on Managing Abroad

What's it like managing a football team abroad?

What's it like managing a football team abroad? We talk to the Scottish gaffer currently managing in the world's most militarised zone.

What makes a manager want to go and coach in the most militarised zone in the world? Craig and Amy are joined by former Rangers, Aberdeen and Leeds United player David Robertson about managing Real Kashmir. Davie describes winter training Kashmir style, his struggles to sign players and just what happens when your owner forgets to book a bus to training. Plus Craig recounts his experiences of managing players from different cultures and one particular story about how a former manager dealt with a player who couldn't understand English.
