Royals striker and former Bristol City captain, Sam Baldock, details his life in football in The Long Read, in Saturday's edition of The Royal!
Baldock talks about everything from turning down a county trial in cricket, to his sporting interests outside football, to his time at Bristol City and much, much more in an extended eight-page chat in Saturday's programme.
