Episode 84: Magic sponges, Harry Kane’s broken records & guest Nooruddean Choudry

Still awaiting an invite to the Crystal Palace Dinner Party, magazine editor Andy Lyons, writer Harry Pearson and host Daniel Gray discuss Injuries, Physios and Medical Staff from men in white coats to the Gordon Banks beer bottle mystery. Record Breakers brings us a Mozambique melody, 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 journalist Nooruddean Choudry, @BeardedGenius on Twitter and author of the excellent Inshallah United: A story of faith and football.
