I have recently caught up with former footballer and member of the Norwich City hall of fame Iwan Roberts for a chat on his career in football. This Q&A covers topics from the very beggining of his career, all the way to becoming a legend at Norwich City Football Club. A variety of other interesting topics are covered in this great Q&A.
