011 Stephen Aitken: Kilby's ambitions, Ian Durrant, history-making at Dumbarton, unlocking Allan McGraw's knees, Jari Litmanen, why he'd be a better player & Stuart Millar's exploding pen

 

STEPHEN AITKEN had the high of taking over at ambitious East Kilbride last week - only to suffer the crushing blow of losing his day job at Rolls Royce just a few days later.

With the aviation industry on its knees, Stevie’s focus is now on sparking Kilby’s take off.

The former Dumbarton manager has been handed a budget to get the club up up and away out of the Lowland League and into the SPFL.

Plus with plans for a new stadium at K-Park already given the green light, Kilby could be the place to be this season.

Hear from Stevie on:

*Kilby's big plans.
*How even he doesn't escape a slaughtering from Ian Durrant.
*Self-doubt during 18 months out of the game
*Turning Dumbarton into the best part-time team in the country and reaching their first national cup final in 121 years.

We also talk to Stevie about his playing days at Morton and Stranraer including:

*Why he'd be a better player if he had his time again.
*How he became a key player in helping Allan McGraw get his knee and shoulder unlocked
*Stuart Millar's exploding pen
*Why Jari Litmanen's Finland shirt if the best ever top he wore.

And much, much more.

Does he talk about the 2 games when the best part time team in the country couldn’t score a goal against a then Junior team in the Scottish Cup, and suffered a humiliating 1-0 loss at home?

Everyone's forgotten that one. Good podcast, enjoyed listening to that
