In this podcast I discuss the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson from Manchester United on ABC Grandstand Digital with Francis Leach. On HarfTime with Tony Schibeci filling in for Harf we discuss the some of the social media and digital tools we use at Sports Geek and recommend to out clients. We are also joined by BJ Scott on a Clarity call discussing Linkedin and how I built Sports Geek using Linkedin.
