Episode 19: Players on the beach and under-qualified bosses

In this exclusive WSC Supporters’ Club edition of the podcast, magazine editor Andy Lyons, writer Harry Pearson and host Daniel Gray discuss football figures on vacation including Graeme Souness’ holiday reading and beach Zelig Keith Weller, and players who own bed & breakfasts. Record Breakers takes us to Brussels, Rio and Glasgow. Plus, underqualified managers from Chester’s Terry Smith to Raith’s Claude Anelka, and flashback to Stan Flashman.

The only way to hear this episode is to sign up for 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.
