Recovering from a bout of Slovak erasure syndrome, magazine editor Andy Lyons, writer Harry Pearson and host Daniel Gray continue with new-ish feature Backward Glance, in which a Random Issue Generator picks out an old copy of WSC magazine from the archives for them to chat about. This time, Issue 166 from December 2000 pops up to deliver news of Kevin Keegan’s shellsuit action, Tony Soprano’s England candidacy, Jim McLean’s flying fists, Ben Elton’s football musical and so much more. Plus, magazine Deputy Editor Ffion Thomas previews WSC issue 457, Record Breakers brings us Dutch delight 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 writer George Harrison, whose football novel, Season, is out now in paperback.
