For many Derby County fans, Marco Gabbiadini was one of their first heroes in the black and white shirt. A big money signing by Arthur Cox in the 1991/92 season, the former Sunderland man spent five seasons at the Baseball Ground, scoring 50 goals and helping the Rams get promoted along the way.

To speak to Gabbiadini now, however, is to speak to a former footballer with very different matters on his mind. As well as discussing his favourite moments, least favourite teammates, the 'dirty, smelly' Baseball Ground, and playing under Cox, McFarland and Smith, Marco, now 56, spoke candidly about his own health - having been diagnosed with a heart condition this year which means he's awaiting a triple heart bypass.

Chris's chat with Marco is both a nostalgic trip back to the mid-1990s, and also a unique personal insight into the current wellbeing of a hugely popular figure in recent DCFC history.
