A brief taste of European football for Kent’s non-League clubs was scuppered by logistics in the early 1970s
Supping sarsaparilla from a dirty glass, magazine editor Andy Lyons, writer Harry Pearson and host Daniel Gray think outside the bin cupboard to talk Alternative World Cups from the CONIFA to the Island Games via the Mundiavocat. WSC Deputy Editor Tom Hocking talks us through the pages of magazine edition 416, including Maoist reform of the Premier League, refereeing crises and a trip to Arbroath. Record Breakers brings rabble-rousing from Rotterdam, and we continue our almost brand new 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 ace WSC writer, Cameron Carter.
Before heading off to Walthamstow market to buy Carlisle United bath mats, magazine editor Andy Lyons, writer Harry Pearson and host Daniel Gray get together to talk all things points deductions, from Tinsley Lindley and his wandering brogues to Peterborough United’s 1967 nightmare and the 1980 Totonero scandal. There is a delve among the pages of WSC magazine issue 414 and Record Breakers takes us to Szekesfehervar, Deventer and Algiers. Dan chats all things Heart of Midlothian with Laurie Dunsire from the Scarves Around The Funnel podcast.
