In this exclusive WSC Supporters’ Club edition of the podcast with magazine editor Andy Lyons, writer Harry Pearson and host Daniel Gray, the Random Topic Generator throws up the topic of People Associated With One Club Working For Another, leading to mentions for Brian Kidd, John Rudge, Guy Roux and many more persons of interest. There is a run through of misremembered things including World Cups 66 and 90, and discussion of notable referees from Gordon Hill and his collar to Pat Partridge’s registration plate. Record Breakers takes us to Florence, Guadalupe and Waldenbuch.

After almost a year without full stadiums, the connections made through football are missed just as much as the goal celebrations
Giddy on Walnut Whips and engrossed in button football, magazine editor Andy Lyons, writer Harry Pearson and host Daniel Gray discuss British managers in Asia from Dave Booth’s moisturising routine to Don Revie’s Keith Harris puppet misery. There is discussion of organic snails, the goalkeeper who stole a child’s pen and distracting views from grounds, and a look between the pages of WSC magazine issue 407. Record Breakers takes us to Sao Paulo, Kuwait and Wrexham, and Matt Hibbert from the This is Tranmere podcast chats to Dan about all things Rovers.
