Lee Sanders and Mark Donnelly, the driving forces behind English Championship side Durham, are special guests this week.
Lee has spent much of his life and career as a youth football coach, and was the driving force of establishing Durham Women. He also managed the team for a significant period of its existence, and now serves as the club’s Head of Football.
A former journalist, Mark meanwhile joined the club in 2015 in a part-time role and a decade later, as Operations and Marketing Manager, plays a leading role in the day-to-day running and, critically, growth of the club.
They talk about the commercial set-up of the club, why they have taken investment from local millionaires Patrick and Frances Connolly, and answer your questions about whether they support introducing B teams into the pyramid and a rebranding of the Championship to the WSL2.
