72+ EFL Pod: Blackburn’s pitch and Wrexham investment

Aaron Paul and Jobi McAnuff are joined by Phil Brown to discuss the permanent appointment of Tonda Eckert to Southampton. Is there any surprise that Southampton have acted now? Should his contract have been shorter? They also discuss Blackburn’s pitch woes and the investment at Wrexham – is Phil Parkinson the man to take Wrexham to the Premier League? Heartbreak for Lyle Taylor’s Chelmsford City in the FA Cup 2nd Round, but success for Weston-super-Mare – which 3rd round fixtures are they looking out for? Plus, who will the latest additions to the ‘hard men’ XI be? And they discuss their predictions for an unpredictable League 2. And as Phil’s Peterborough Sports head to Scunthorpe in the FA Trophy, he’s been to Southampton, but has he ever been to Scunthorpe?
