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]
