Taking a break from reading the match reports of Dmitri Shostakovich, magazine editor Andy Lyons, writer Harry Pearson and host Daniel Gray discuss Last Days and Season Ends, from Basque delight to flip flops in Paisley, via the bonkers Bundesliga of 1999. Record Breakers brings a West Flanders wonder, WSC Deputy Editor Ffion Thomas takes us inside the pages of magazine issue 431 and we continue our giddy 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 the Times newspaper’s Scottish football correspondent, and author of Fergie Rises, Michael Grant.
