Hear from a reflective Colin Caton, before, during and after what proved to be his final match as Bala Town manager after over two decades in charge. Meanwhile at Barry Town United, find out why hiring Welsh football icon Andy Legg was vital to their run-in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We visit Cardiff Met boss Ryan Jenkins at his home in Ystrad Mynach, and chat to his wife Heledd about how the highs and lows of football management impact family life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s insight from Caernarfon Town\u2019s Richard \u2018Fish\u2019 Davies on his love of coaching and developing players, as he aims to take the Cofis into Europe for the second consecutive year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, find out more about Haverfordwest County\u2019s recent development on and off the pitch, as Tony Pennock proves that goalkeepers can in fact be good managers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the training pitch to the touchline to the dressing room, immerse yourself in the action of top-flight football like never before. Hear all of the drama, emotion and key tactical decisions, with a huge reward at the end of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
