Record Breakers takes us to La Rioja, North Rhine-Westphalia and the London Borough of Merton, and Tom Lines from Walsall’s One Pod Beyond podcast chats with Dan about the Saddlers.
In this exclusive WSC Supporters’ Club edition of the podcast, magazine editor Andy Lyons, writer Harry Pearson and host Daniel Gray talk all things hapless goalkeepers, from Gary Walsh’s reverse legs to a blancmange David Icke.

Record Breakers takes us to Belgrade, Gelsenkirchen and Gillingham.
