Big fan of the @itwaspod so it was real honour to chat with @draper_rob and @jonawils , who has been to a lot more football stadia than me, about 92: A Life in Football Grounds
We have the brilliant @OllieHolt22 on @ItWasPod with myself and @jonawils Patreon bonus edition today talking about 92: A Life in Football Grounds
It’s a superb book, a football journey around the country and Ollie’s life

An inspiring episode on the passion and history of football supporting, one I particularly enjoyed as an aspiring football writer myself. #bhafc

“Bayern Munich 1974-1976: slow, boring, hampered by ponderous sweeper Beckenbauer”
💯 stick to my Ralf Rangnick inspired view this is the correct take
@jonawils (a rigid, uninspired thinker) seems to think the evidence of 3 successive European Cup wins suggests otherwise 🙄
