Max and Barry talk with Jonathan Wilson about his early memories of football, why his games of Subbuteo took much longer than they should, how he got his first break in writing and how Inverting The Pyramid has changed his life.
We also talk about the latest in the proposed takeover at St James’ Park, lower-league solutions and Barry provides a perk to those missing the olden days of two months ago.
Back on Monday.
PS: unfortunately our show in Leeds has been rescheduled – it will now be taking place on 17 September. we will, of course, keep you updated were things to change further.
