HERE WE GO! It’s been a rocky few years for England (mirroring the national state of crisis and emergency) but a win over Poland will take them to the 1974 World Cup. Only Brian Clough’s favourite goalkeeper (🤡) stands in the way… 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⚽️ open.spotify.com/episode/204…

Really enjoyed the episode. Fascinating insight from @JBennettWriter. Ordered the book today. That Ireland side which missed out on Spain '82 was stacked with talent.

"Argentina cocked a snook at all our little theories and assumptions. They came to Villa Park with a murky reputation for defence but hunted goals aggressively for 90 minutes". (The Daily Telegraph, 14th July 1966) #WorldCup 🇦🇷🇪🇸

Difference being that substitutions were an relatively new concept for Ramsey. These days, multiple substitutions are par for the course and sometimes key to the setting the tone for a match (as proven yesterday)

Never write off Messi. Never write off Argentina. It felt inevitable. England never got forward after taking the lead. #ENGARG #WorldCup
