This edition of Across The Park Extra, sees ex-Everton and England international Michael Ball in the studio. "Bally" advised the lads that nothing was off limits, as he discussed his Everton career timeline from 1996 to 2001; from his early decision to leave the Liverpool academy in favour of joining Everton (thanks to a night out with Howard Kendall), to his decision to rejecting the biggest contract he’d ever been offered, from Liverpool, after being transfer listed by his beloved Everton in 2001. The lads posed some challenging question’s including; how the bust up with Walter Smith came about, what his feelings on Nick Barmby’s controversial move across the park were and how it felt as a young Evertonian to play in that Coventry game in 1998. His move to Rangers is discussed as Bally opens up on how leaving Everton affected him emotionally, before his focus turned to trying to save his career after a long injury layoff. The show closes with Bally discussing his career at PSV and Manchester City including his bizarre PSV unveiling alongside Arouna Kone, aswell as captaining Manchester City in an 8-1 loss to Middlesbrough in Sven Goran Eriksson's last game in charge. Bally is brutally honest throughout the discussion and doesn't hide with any of his responses. An absolute must listen for any football fan!
