Brought to you by BOYLE Sports.
Alan reflects on his early playing days and his first step into management at Charlton Athletic, where he took on a joint player-manager role alongside Steve Gritt.
He recounts leading Charlton to the Premier League, including what many consider to be the greatest play-off final of all time.
The discussion also covers his experience managing Paolo Di Canio, before Alan opens up about the circumstances surrounding his departure from The Valley.
Plus, Alan looks back on his spell as West Ham manager during a turbulent period - from attempting to reignite Carlos Tevez’s career to navigating the fallout of the Icelandic banking crash and discovering players had been sold without his knowledge.
