Hi Stephen. Great interview, a true gent. On a personal note - Frank actually had a massive impact on my life. I was undergoing major surgeries at 27 years old to repair a ruptured achilles which suffered several setbacks and further surgeries. Unbeknownst to me, my dear Mother wrote to Chelsea whilst I was in hospital for my 4th surgery in 5 months. I received a letter in the post that same month, and a signed photograph from Frank himself, wishing me well and telling me to keep strong. It was just before Chelsea faced City in the league, during Frank's first tenure as the manager. I had almost given up on the thought of walking normally ever again, letalone playing football. But that letter really inspired me to try my best and to never give in. Proud to say I am walking (almost) normally and have managed to partake in some 6 a side walking foltball. That letter and photograph I have framed on my wall. Thank you Frank, and all the best in all you choose to do.

I was touched by Frank's description of the immensity of the loss of his mother. I'm a guy, and I lost my mum when I was 24 (and she also was a hairdresser). There's nothing like a man's loss of his mother, and it's indescribable, really. But Frank conveyed the depth and complexity of it as best as anybody could.

You were only little more than a baby yourself when your mother died. So you are not someone who has been adult when losing their mother. And most individuals don't remember anything when they were 3, anyway. I'll respond to your irrelevant, illogical, and ignorant comments no further.

Thank you Steven what you do is really important, I have been watching you since I left working at Lovehoney during lockdown I got run over By a bouncer in a Night club in Bath and then worked at Lovehoney for 3 years. I was Disabled and lost full use of my left arm all because I was dancing with girls and I got picked out of the crowd and ran over behind the club. (I am Dyslexic) I have had major mental health and physical and mental trauma to get over. I'm 30 now and Just finish a year doing Environmental Science in Bristol college to get me to Uni. Higher education course whilst dealing and having to put my dear father through detox, however after 12 years out of education, I have achieved my grades to go to uni. After being an events manager for 5-6 years prior.(Before covid) I have sacrificed myself for everything I have cared about. You may or might not have heard of Roots allotments in Bristol and Bath but during my time working night shifts and day shifts before starting my environmental science qualification I worked and built the 1.0 ground zero site. After applying this work ethic I am now hoping I get my grade that I am sure I will... As I got a distinction in my extended project and my essay on sustainable futures my degree in Bath in Global Development and sustainability may hear more about it. I wish you all the best and thank you to all of us that need that extra push. Gentlemen may not always finish first to start with but may finish when all is done. I am from an Irish and Welsh heritage and your journey is inspiring. I hope to change the world of those that are less off than myself at this stage even and bridge the gap for societies through innovation strategy culture and understanding. One day we will shake hands.

The raw emotion visible on Franks face when talking about his mother passing away. At last, someone that relates. This episode really hit home, especially this part. I lost my mother suddenly over 1.5 years ago at the age of 31 and can relate to everything frank went through. The auto pilot, the relentlessness afterwards but that aspect of a part of you leaving. Thank you to Frank for speaking so openly about this as only other people that have lost someone so close to them can truly understand how it feels. And it’s true, this grief right here, never leaves you. But you learn to live with it.

I had some of the best times of my life at the end of the 21/22 season - even though we were absolute dirt - because of the connection he forged with the fans. 100% we'd have been down had those scrotes on the board kept him on last season, absolutely, but what I was trying to say was, I never wanted a manager - or anyone, really - to do well for us more than I did Lampard. I know a lot of fans who feel the same way and won't speak ill of him. When Periera was being mooted to replace that Benitez lad, we all kicked off and wanted Lampard.

it's not too late, it can work out, the likes of Moyes didn't start high, most managers don't they earned their spurs through sweat and pain of defeat and some highs. He has been lucky to have had big opportunities that unfortunately didn't work out, he can head to the championship and rebuild from there, League one if need be, build a team in his image, learn to defend like Eddie Howe went to do, and in no time he'll be on the up again. He has contacts with Chelsea and city so he can get players on loan. It'll take some humbling and humility but if he wants to make it he has to restart. Gerrard should've probably done the same instead of going to Saudi but who knows, it may end up working. It'll be good to see the two of them compete as managers in the prem in the future

One of the best of all time for me, I feel he’s underrated when I see debates on him compared to others, maybe because he doesn’t play for Man Utd or Liverpool. If a midfielder scores 20 goals in 1 season it would grab an incredible amount of attention and praise. I think since Lampard consistently did it for 10 seasons, people were desensitised to it and expected it. A Ronaldinho away from a ballon d'orm for a reason and a class act off the pitch.

First time watching this podcast, I must say I really enjoyed it. As a Chelsea fan Frank has always been a legend and now hearing him talk about his personal experiences and life it just makes me respect him more as a human being. Great interview and I’ve definitely subscribed to the channel 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Interviews like this are so important, we never get to know our hero's enough and these personal interviews give us so much insight and so much understanding into why players were a certain way during particular periods of their lives. I feel like I understand Frank so much more now and this happens with current Chelsea players too where we get their personal interviews and we remember that they are humans too.

There are very few moment in football that I literally cried. The most I can remember when Frank scored the penalty in 2nd leg UCL against Liverpool and he tribute the goal for his mother that just passed away recently at that time. I lost my mom too 2 years ago and this really hit me again. It’s never easy losing the person you look up the most in your family. I feel ya Frank :(

When I listen to Frank talk about his mom I am so moved. He is truly genuine and heartfelt. I am here now, suffering unthinkable pain from a medical surgery. I can’t do much. Can’t move well and don’t have much energy. And my mom is here for everything. I know how lucky I am and what it means to me. We have all lost important people to us but this week has made me realize how much we neee to cherish what’s here, now. I am so grateful to have her. And I relate so much to franks emotions and pain in that time.

Obviously here because of Frank, but just wanted to say what a world class podcast/interview that was! A really well constructed personal conversation, and Frank looked so at ease talking about some really emotional experiences with you. Frank will always be a Chelsea legend, and although results didn’t go our way last season, I think any fans with common sense can understand the circumstances and lack of mentality from these players and Frank had an impossible task on his hands. Not even Alex Ferguson would have got that lot performing. Good luck with your journey Frank! 🙌

Same here, but it feels really nice listening to him talk about it. It's tiring trying to run away from the fact she's no longer there every single day.

One of the best players of his generation, he was constantly battling it out for domestic and international trophies throughout his career and he deserves a lot of respect. I'm not a Chelsea fan, but I've always liked Frank for his attitude and determination on the field, not to mention his goal scoring ability, which, for a midfield player was second to none. To then hear from him about his early years, his struggles, basically what made him into the man he is today was interesting and educating. There's always this unknown about football players, that us football fans don't really get to see, the hidden struggles, that we can't see on a Saturday or Sunday... Wishing you all the best Frank for your future! A really great episode, kudos Steven!

Was a fantastic interview and wanted to comment but wasn't really sure what to say. Love Frank, being a Chelsea fan for the last 40 years, and really appreciate how open and humble he is. But the biggest compliment I can give came about when he spoke about his daughters at the end. Frank if my kids grow up to be anything like you and the way you conduct yourself I will be the proudest dad in the world. Good luck in the future and hope you have the managerial career you deserve. And with any luck my kids will be taking me to the Bridge in the future when you're our manager again. 💙
