    EXCLUSIVE: Former Celtic and Southampton manager Gordon Strachan discusses Rangers' recent troubles, Andre Villas-Boas and returning to management. RELATED LINKS • Deal close on pivotal day for Rangers • Advocaat defends spending at Rangers • Bet on Football - Get £25 Free You kept playing until you were 40 and there currently seems to be a trend for older players excelling, such as Giggs, Scholes, Henry and Friedel. What do you put this down to? Mine was due to necessity rather than pleasure, to be honest with you. I came to retire at about 37, but I went to Coventry and I was persuaded by Ron Atkinson, then by players at the club, and then by the chairman at the club, that I should keep playing so that was my situation. The secret of keeping playing for a long time is playing with good players. There have been examples of people playing on - real top, top players - who have gone to a lower level and found it really hard, and then calling it a day. The secret is to have good players around you, you still have to love the game and you have to look after yourself. You will find that the people who have played for a long time have looked after themselves really at an early age - 15 to 21 -so they have got a real base fitness in them. They trained hard at that period of time, and hard work is not hard work to them: it becomes the norm. How much have improvements in lifestyle, nutrition and other techniques like yoga and pilates helped extend players' careers? People talked about my diet when I played: I had porridge, bananas, seaweed tablets.

I was born on 17 October 1968 in Aberdeen and I made my name as a marauding full-back for Aberdeen, Rangers and Leeds United . After my career ended prematurely through injury, I moved into management and had spells in charge at Elgin City and Montrose in Scotland before moving to America . I started in grassroots football out there and eventually became executive director at Sereno Soccer Club . During that time, I had an ill- fated spell as head coach with Phoenix FC and when I left the States, I took on my current role as head coach of the Indian I-League side, Real Kashmir . But before we get to all that I want to take you back to the beginning and my early years growing up in Aberdeen . My family and I lived in a council house in Inchbrae Terrace in a part of Aberdeen called Garthdee .

  • Bbc Radio Five Live
    BJ_C17.qxd 13/04/2007 13:47 Page 404 BBC RADIO FIVE LIVE BBC Five Live is BBC Radio’s 24-hour news and sports channel. It is available on 909 and 693 medium wave, on digital radio and TV and online. Most of the staff are based at Television Centre in West London. Their office space and studios are on the same floor as the rolling news television channel, BBC News 24, making it easy for London-based reporters and correspondents to appear on both channels in the same day. There are two main studios – each with a ‘cubicle’ or control room – which are used for alternate programmes. The channel aims at a younger audience than BBC Radio Four News, and has a more relaxed style. Research shows, though, that the average listener is in their late forties. The audience is predominantly male, because of the emphasis on sport. The channel has commentary rights to Premiership, European and international football. It offers comprehensive coverage of Wimbledon, the Open golf and the Olympic Games. One question for audiences is whether Five Live is a rolling news channel, the radio equivalent of BBC News 24 or Sky News, or is it a news channel only when there is no sport? The channel is complemented by Five Live Sports Extra where commentary on sports fixtures not on the main channel, including Test cricket, can be found. Nicky Campbell and Shelagh Fogarty are approaching the end of another three hours 0845 co-hosting the breakfast show. Nicky, an experienced host of live television shows like Watchdog, is a devotee of Scottish sport.
