Episode 63: Unlikely cup finalists, Adama Traoré’s lucky charm & guest Suzy Wrack

Terrified at the thought of a Cabbage Patch Kid uprising, magazine editor Andy Lyons, writer Harry Pearson and host Daniel Gray discuss unlikely cup finalists, from the London XI to Catanzaro via Bobby Gould’s tears and Johnny Crossan’s Tongeren insomnia. WSC Assistant Editor Ffion Thomas delves into the pages of magazine issue 422, Record Breakers brings delight from Denmark, and we continue our sprightly feature, The Final Third, in which a guest contributes a match, a player and an object to the WSC Museum of Football. Joining Dan as our visiting curator this time is Suzy Wrack, Guardian sportswriter and author of the new book, A Woman’s Game: The Rise, Fall, and Rise Again of Women’s Football.

If you enjoyed this and would like more, you can sign up to the WSC Supporters’ Club for as little as £2 per month. There are great rewards, including bonus episodes, extended editions, badges, T-shirts and photo prints.
