It's Tuesday, and you know what that means! Welcome to Episode 44 of The ABZ Football Podcast!
Join the ABZFP crew, as Gavin (@TheRogue87) and Graham as look back on the our two final outings of the season against both the Perth and Paisley Saints to close out a miserable 2021-22 campaign.
We check in on the Women's side and their double headers against Glasgow City & Motherwell in SWPL1 as they close out their campaign before we check in on the Young Team for the final time this season.
After the break, it's time for the final part of our exclusive, in-depth conversation with a true legend of Aberdeen Football Club - a boyhood Dons fan who lived the dream - it's the one, and the only, John Hewitt. Here we reflect on the remainder of John's time with the Dons after that glorious 1982/83 campaign and we talk about winning a pair of league titles and a triumphant Scottish Cup Final appearance in 1986.
Music this week is from Lotus Crush and their track "Blood In The Water" taken from their 2015 album, Rabbit Hole which has just had a deluxe reissue which you can listen to in all of your usual streaming locations.
