After his popularity in his My Farming Week article, we sit back down again with James Carr (between his packed schedule) for the Young Stock Podcast to see how his commitments to football and farming work around his full-time job as a construction teacher.
Having played with his club Ardagh since under 8, James has recently solidified his spot on the Mayo senior football team.
