The Final Countdown - Football History's stories of glory and heartbreak in the biggest finals episodes

  • FA CUP FINAL 1981 - Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester City

    This is The Final Countdown. A podcast dedicated to all the great finals from the annals of football. Each week your hosts, Adam and Lewis, will do a deep dive (with a generous helping of nostalgia and humour) into one of the greats.

    Episode 3 is all about the 1981 FA Cup Final between Spurs and Man City including - and some would say spending too much time on - Chas & Dave's UK number 5, hit "Ossie's Dream". So listen up if you want to hear us wax lyrical about Ricky Villa's incredible solo goal as well as Adam's impression of Ossie Ardiles!

    Episode 2 takes a look at the 1980 FA Cup Final between Arsenal and West Ham, a game that would later become known as "The Brooking Final". It saw Arsenal head to their third consecutive FA Cup Final only to be undone early on! Lewis also tries to get revenge on Adam (after his poor showing on their first quiz!) with his own quotes round at the end - worth listening to just to hear Ian Rush's sage wisdom about living abroad.
