Classic Big Interview: Damien Duff Part One Dec 26, 2023

Show notes

Here’s another chance to hear my interview with Damien Duff from season one.

In part one, Damien describes how as a kid he instinctively knew to practice for hours alone to develop his ball skills. He tells about cleaning Tim Sherwood's boots and struggling with homesickness as a youngster at Blackburn. It was all character building, and at the FIFA World Youth Championships in 1997, where Ireland finished third, Damien knew in his heart that he was going to make it.

Show notes

Here’s another chance to hear my interview with Frank McAvennie from season one.

Classic Big Interview: Frank McAvennie Part One Dec 19, 2023

Show notes

Here’s another chance to hear my interview with Frank McAvennie from season one.

In part one, Frank describes his fairytale rise to stardom. A random invitation got him playing with Johnstone Burgh, then a snub by Lisbon Lion Bertie Auld made him determined to succeed. St Mirren came calling, and after several impressive seasons he went south to join Luton, but ended up being signed by John Lyall for West Ham. Soon he was spearheading the Hammers attack with Tony Cottee, fed by the great Alan Devonshire.
