Proper Football With Andy Townsend
Andy Townsend reveals Gareth Southgate's funny side, relives the time Gazza borrowed the Middlesbrough team bus and recalls how Ireland ended up in the wrong kit at USA 94
What did Liam Gallagher say to Gareth Southgate after his penalty miss at Euro 96 and which Hollywood star brought it up again a few days later as he tried to escape it all? What happened when Paul Gascoigne ran off with Middlesbrough鈥檚 brand new team bus? And how did a mix up over kits almost scupper the start of Ireland鈥檚 1994 World Cup campaign?
Former Aston Villa, Chelsea and Republic of Ireland midfielder Andy Townsend reveals all of that to Kammy and Ben on this week鈥檚 pod, as well as tales of living with Gazza, being pranked by Southgate and why Jack Charlton was hammering the players before Ireland鈥檚 World Cup penalty shoot-out with Romania at Italia 90.
Andy also chooses the best player he played with, the one match he鈥檇 watch for the rest of his life and explains why it was a nightmare coaching the Chelsea team that contained him, Dennis Wise and Vinnie Jones.
Meanwhile, Kammy describes what it鈥檚 like for him each morning as he learns to live with his apraxia and reveals which England World Cup star has been regularly sending him messages of support.
