Beschreibung

A bitterly cold Upton Park sees Graham Taylor raiding Elton’s wardrobe and combining sunglasses and sleeping bag as we head for the glories of the Second Division once again. A linesman takes a projectile to the back of the head and crumples to the turf before continuing. Police protection arrives for him before the referee shows solidarity with his colleague by refusing to mention it in his match report, unless the FA ask him to according to Brian Moore. At Stamford Bridge, while the car boot sale is in full swing in the one corner, visitors Newcastle have most of the play while Chelsea have most of the goals, which tells you all you need to know about possession statistics. Colin Lee scores three for Chelsea on the third anniversary of the day he scored four for Spurs. John Motson is, as you would expect, like a canine with an additional appendage at this half-coincidence. This is a public episode.

You Have To Say That's Magnificent: Helmut Schon

Our look at some of the significant managers from World Cups past brings us to West Germany in 1974 and Helmut Schon. Born in the East, in charge of the West, no wonder he struggled under the pressure of the two sides clashing. Aidan is joined by Chris Evans, author of the excellent 'How to Win the World Cup' to chat all things Schon, and how he created the right environment for West Germany to succeed.
