It’s numbered seven, as we have previously spoken to Gavin Gordon, Mark Hone and Roger Holmes. However, this is the fourth in a new series hosted by Gary and former Lincoln City player Paul De Garis, following on from Matt Carmichael, Colin Alcide and Simon Yeo.
Phil Nelae is not only seventh in the podcast series, but also seventh in the club’s all-time appearances chart and can claim to have been a teammate of both Percy Freeman and John McGinley.
He’s famous for combining county cricket with Worcestershire and his football career with Lincoln, helped by two legendary managers, Colin Murphy and Graham Taylor. He bagged 22 goals (eight inside 13 matches) across 369 senior appearances and is a favourite of many who saw him play.
It was an honour and a pleasure to chat with Phil Neale.
