Brian and I talk about sport

We start off by talking about Euro 2020 and ask why Gareth Southgate has been so successful. We move on to black sporting prowess, what happens when sport gets cancelled and then war and nuclear weapons. We end by considering refereeing and the psychology of fighter pilots.

Brian Quote

“You don’t need a meeting; it happened of it’s own accord.”

Notes

1. The maximum wage was in place from 1901 to 1961.
2. Wellington's army at Waterloo was about 70,000 strong.  which means it was slightly more than British casualties on the first day of the Somme.
3. Keith Miller was an Australian cricketer.
4. Jack Charlton did indeed players to go out there and enjoy themselves.
