For a little while, Chris Turner had Peter Eustace living on the road.

He went to Middlesbrough and Nottingham, Glasgow and Bristol. Southampton, Cardiff, Sunderland. And north of the border; Glasgow, Livingston, Dunfermline, Aberdeen.

It was early 2004 and Turner, then manager of his beloved Sheffield Wednesday, occasionally went along with him. A memorable trip to Manchester to watch Kevin Keegan’s City reserve side saw them unearth a gem in Glenn Whelan, while wasted journeys elsewhere faded into one. Hotels and rainy motorways became the norm.
