Kammy & Ben's Proper Football Podcast: Proper Football With Andy Townsend

Proper Football With Andy Townsend

BBC Radio 5 Live - Kammy & Ben's Proper Football Podcast, Proper Football With Andy Townsend

Kammy and Ben are joined by former Ireland captain 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’s brand new team bus? And how did a mix up over kits almost scupper the start of Ireland’s 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’s pod, as well as tales of living with Gazza, being pranked by Southgate and why Jack Charlton was hammering the players before Ireland’s World Cup penalty shoot-out with Romania at Italia 90.

Andy also chooses the best player he played with, the one match he’d 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’s 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.
