When Mark Hughes became Manchester City manager in 2008, he appointed Mike Rigg as his technical director, a role that was being created at the club.

In 2020, the Blue Moon Podcast's David Mooney spoke to him about the role - including how it changed when Hughes was sacked and Roberto Mancini came into the dugout instead.
