You Have To Say That's Magnificent: England 1986

Bobby Robson’s England headed to Mexico for the 1986 World Cup with high hopes and an injured captain. A defeat and a disastrous draw later both were in tatters. Just how did it come to this, and how did England recover to reach the quarter finals and a date with Diego. Aidan, Steven and Joe are back with the topically naned You Have to say that’s magnificent, to discuss it all, along with the occasional detour into the delights of mid-80s music.

You Have To Say That's Magnificent: World Cup songs

They just don’t make them like they used to, do they? World Cup songs used to be a staple part of the tournament soundtrack, for good or ill.

This time, more than any other time, will they get it right? This is a public episode.

You Have To Say That's Magnificent: Scotland v Brazil

Scotland face Brazil for the fifth time at World Cup with the upcoming clash this summer, making this fixture one of the most frequent in World Cup group stage history. From the stalemate of 1974 and Billy Bremner's chance to seal victory, through the delights of the 1982 clash of great goals for both teams, and the narrow defeats in 1990 and 1998, it is a fixture which has been closely fought more than not. Aidan, Steven and Lewis are back to run through the past clashes and look ahead to the 2026 edition. Who will be the Bremner or Mo Johnston, or who will be the David Narey or John Collins?
