Episode 3

First broadcast: on BBC Radio 7Latest broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 Extra

Nick Hornby reads his Arsenal-obsessed memoir, musing on girls' rooms, boys' passions - and Liam Brady.

It's 1977: the author is at Cambridge University, watching Arsenal play Cambridge United.

He's also deeply in love with a trainee teacher - the first girlfriend he ever took to a football match at London's Highbury Stadium.

She found the experience "funny"!
