Lee Dixon - S03 E02

Series 3 - Episode 2 - Lee DixonIn terms of value for money, there can be few more astute signings than the £375,000 George Graham paid Stoke City for Lee Dixon in January 1988. 25% of arguably the greatest 90s defence, Lee finished his Arsenal career with four league titles, three FA Cup winners medals, a UEFA Cup Winner's Cup medal and infamously a runners-up medal in the latter competition too.But it was the first of his league championship medals that intrigued us most; the night of 26th May 1989, Liverpool v Arsenal - a championship play off in the last game of the season. For a whole host of reasons, from Fever Pitch to the ramifications of the Hillsborough disaster, the 1988/89 season marked the end of football as it had largely been for 100 years. And in it's culmination, Michael Thomas' last minute winner didn't just cement the league for Arsenal, it also cemented the idea of live football as a major box office draw, with the dawn of the Premier League coming soon after.We put all of this to Lee. Plus... we speculate as to whether Sean Dyche eats worms.Twitter: @quicklykevinFacebook:quicklykevinInstagram: quicklykevinEmail: hello@quicklykevinFor your chance to win an exclusive 'Graham Says: Hit Les' Quickly Kevin mug leave us a 90's Football based 'Review Haiku' on iTunes!!Thanks,Chris, Josh and Michael.

James Richardson / Football Italia - S03 E01

Series 3 begins with one of the central protagonists in the cast of 90's football; James Richardson. Synonymous with a golden period of Calcio, the sight of James holding aloft a pink paper on Football Italia was as regular an occurrence as a Baggio goal. We get the gossip on all the big topics; did Paul Ince ring James up for tips on Tomb Raider? What was Elvis Costello like? And did James ever have a night out with Gazza and Jimmy Five Bellies?We’ve also got big updates on both James Beattie’s Latin textbook and Lee Sharpe’s infamous fan club.Twitter: @quicklykevinFacebook:quicklykevinInstagram: quicklykevinEmail: hello@quicklykevinFor your chance to win an exclusive 'Graham Says: Hit Les' Quickly Kevin mug leave us a 90's Football based 'Review Haiku' on iTunes!!Thanks,Chris, Josh and Michael.
