My guest is football writer and podcaster, Paul Whittle. His new book, Before the Premier League: A History of the Football League’s Last Decades, explores English football before the establishment of the Premier League in 1992. We discuss the events in the last decades of the traditional Football League system that led to the creation of the new Premier League set-up.
