Swindler. Saviour. Mobster. Spy?

Giovanni Buys a Football Club


Listen Later

It’s the mid 90s and Giovanni is, by now, a budding megalomaniac. He’s becoming a big player on the world stage. All rich and powerful men need a hobby and Giovanni chooses football. But not satisfied with watching on from the terraces, he goes football club shopping, with consistently calamitous results.


Calum and Michael chart his career from Italy, to Scotland - and discover that where Giovanni went - trouble was usually not far behind.
