Welcome to "By Far The Greatest Team" football podcast, where hosts Graham and Jamie dive deep into the world of football greatness. In this special episode, they're joined by their inaugural guest, Scott Somenthal, for a nostalgic journey back to the iconic England 1982 World Cup team.
Get ready to reminisce and debate as they unravel the highs and lows of England's campaign. Remember Trevor Brooking's unforgettable moment when his delicate lob got stuck in the goal stanchion, leaving fans breathless and commentators scrambling for words to describe the sheer audacity of the attempt.
But that's just the tip of the iceberg. They'll delve into the spine-tingling commentary that echoed through the ages as "Maggie Thatcher's boys took one hell of a beating," immortalizing a moment that captured the nation's spirit.
Yet, it's not all about the matches. Prepare to be enthralled by tales of the madness and folly of FIFA's World Cup draw, where fate seemed to toy with the hopes and dreams of nations. And who could forget the joy of collecting Panini World Cup stickers, trading duplicates in the schoolyard while dreaming of seeing your favourite players grace the pitch?
Then, there's the electrifying speed of Bryan Robson's lightning-fast goal against France, a moment that ignited hope and sent pulses racing across the nation.
Join them as they dissect the Brooking-Keegan combination, a partnership that promised so much but arrived just a little too late to salvage England's hopes. It's a classic episode filled with laughter, nostalgia, and passionate debate about one of football's most memorable teams.
Tune in now and relive the glory days of England's 1982 World Cup adventure, where every goal, every triumph, and every heartbreak is etched into footballing folklore.
