276: Roy of the Rovers


Listen Later

David Nolan returns to talk about the greatest left foot in football, and to discuss the highs and lows of Melchester Rovers in the early 1980s. It's time to tackle the biggest sporting hero in the history of British comics (sorry, Alf). Second hand copies of this collection are still available.

You can find all of David's own books on Amazon, and his book about Argentinian football is also on Bookshop.org. Follow him on Bluesky and Twitter.

You can find a list of all the upcoming books on the Facebook page, follow the podcast on instagram, Threads, Mastodon, and BlueSky. And email me comments and suggestions to [email protected]
