Podcast: The Away Leg with Steve Menary and James Montague

The Away Leg is for a good cause

My guests are football writers Steve Menary and James Montague, whose new book, The Away Leg, includes XI curated stories from the world of football. From the famous Iran v USA encounter at France ’98 to Iceland at Euro 2016 via a political assassination in the Netherlands and Arsenal’s women conquering Europe, there’s a lot to cover in around 40 mins…

And The Away Leg is for a good cause – all author royalties will be donated to the charity, Community Integrated Care.

[Disclaimer: The Away Leg comes out via Pitch Publishing, who also published my book, Origin Stories: The Pioneers Who Took Football to the World]
