Quickly Kevin; will he score? The 90s Football Show

Our guest this week is the youngest anchor ever to host a World Cup on UK television; all round lovely man, West Ham fan and mid-nineties face of ITV, Matthew Lorenzo. Plus we catch up on developments regarding James Beattie’s Latin textbook, we finally hear from a member of the Lee Sharpe fan club and we find out what fire and brimstone Gavin Peacock has been letting off this week.

Our guest this week is man who has been nominated for the Edinburgh Comedy Award a record breaking five times - star of Mock the Week, Live at the Apollo, Would I Lie to You and, more importantly, a former Manchester United fan, James Acaster. The subject of discussion for this episode is the documentary which made infamous its protagonist; angry Orient manager John Sitton. 22 years after Channel 4’s ’Club for a fiver’ was first aired, this week we give it a rewatch and try to figure out exactly what prompted John Sitton to utter the immortal words: “‘So you, you little c*** when I tell you to do something and you, you f****** big c*** - when I tell you to do something, do it. And if you f****** come back at me, we’ll have a f****** right sort out in here.”Meanwhile, there’s an update on Vegard Heggem’s salmon lodge and an interesting report from the 90s Aston Villa version of Stella Street.

Our guest this week did it all as a player; five league titles, one European cup, one FA cup, and three league cups, as part of one of the greatest Liverpool teams ever assembled. But it was with the BBC in the 90s that Mark Lawrenson came into his own as one of the most recognisable pundits of the embryonic Premier League; all while juggling a marketing gig for Guinness and the surely nightmarish role of Keegan's defensive coach in Newcastle's most attacking period. Plus, we find out what Gavin Peacock's been up to since he quit his own punditry career to become a Christian minister in Canada (no, really). Hosted on Acast.

Our guest this week is one third of our favourite comedy sketch troupe ‘Pappys’; it’s upper-body nudity enthusiast and massive Wolves fan, Tom Parry. The 90s were a period of medium resurgence for Wolves after a desperate period in the late 80s which saw them drop into the fourth tier of English football for the only time in their history. Spearheading that charge for Wolves was Tom Parry’s hero; Mr Steve Bull. We find out about Steve’s remarkable inclusion in the England squad for the 1990 World Cup, his inexplicable local newspaper column, and which deep-fried foodstuff Steve was seen carrying in inordinate amounts.

Our guest this week is a referee who officiated more than 1200 top level matches in his career, including the Premier League, Champions League, an F.A. Cup final and internationals, one of the most recognisable refs of his era: Dermot Gallagher. We also find out which 90s footballer runs a salmon farm, who’s flogging swimming pools in the south of France and Josh heads back to his piazza for more 90s football tittle-tattle. Hosted on Acast.

Our guest this week is Spurs and England legend Darren Anderton. Scorer of a spectacular goal in the 1998 World Cup against Colombia, winner of the 1999 League cup - and almost (still hurts) the man who scored the golden goal winner against Germany in Euro 96. We also have some exclusive gossip about Nigel Pearson’s order in a hardware store, weird shirt sponsors, plus we join Josh in another Italian piazza as he unearths more massively out of date transfer gossip.

We’re back, we’re back… we’re finally back! This week we’re joined by a titan of 90s football; co-host of Fantasy Football, Perrier award winning stand-up comedian, lyricist of Three Lions and big West Brom fan, Frank Skinner. We cover all the main subjects; Bobby Gould as West Brom manager, England in the 90s, Euro 96, Three Lions and, of course, the show that put football fandom on the map: Fantasy Football. There’s massively outdated transfer gossip, plus we have all your correspondence, including updates on Saudi Arabia’s notorious 1989 U-16 squad and that small-footed man of mystery, Chris ‘The Bart Man’ Bart-Williams.

As Series 1 slams to a close, we're delighted to be bringing you the first of what will eventually be a series ending tradition: The Quickly Kevin 90s football quiz. The team taking on Josh and Chris for 'the ashes of 90s football' (a burnt packet of football stickers) are friends of the show; want-away Aston Villa fan and comedian Tom Craine and Wales and Swansea's favourite funny son Ellis James. Through a range of incredibly niche questions, two teams battle for the ultimate prize; some pogs, a mug adorned with the face of a QKWHS icon and bragging rights that should see the winners through the summer. We'll be taking a break after this, but don't forget to stay in touch by signing up to our mailing list at: QuicklyKevin.com See you soon! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

There a few 90s football faces more recognisable than our guest this week; a rare breed of clever footballer, the one and only Iain Dowie. On this show, we walk through Iain’s career, navigating the obvious points (Luton’s shirt sponsors) as well as visiting Iain’s former career in missile engineering. Plus, we discuss the notorious night in Stockport when Iain scored one of the greatest own goals ever scored, then broke his leg, all while Florin Răducioiu got some shopping done at Harvey Nicholls with the missus. We also have an update into one of the hottest current topics in 90s football: the rumour surrounding Chris Bart Williams small feet. As well as pondering what might have been if Newcastle United had signed George Weah instead of advertising hoarding hater, Temur Ketsbaia.

On the show this week we’ve got comedian and broadcaster, and Nottingham’s own(!), Matt Forde to dissect the fortunes of Nottingham Forest in the 90s. When you think about Forest in the 90s, all the big names echo through the sands of time; Brian and Nigel Clough, Frank Clark, Ian Woan, Steve Stone, Andrea Silenzi, Stuart Pearce, Stan Collymore and Bryan Roy - the list goes on and on. But the one big name ever-present at both the City Ground and the training ground throughout the 90s turns out to be… Matt Forde. Through Matt’s eyes we take a nostalgic tour from Brian Clough in the changing room, to punching Ryan Giggs in the tunnel to being lambasted by Steve Chettle, only to bury the hatchet twenty years later. We also get to find out which 90s track Danny Dichio had managed to steal an exclusive march on, as well as resolving a mystery that has haunted football since time began: what are Nigel Martyn’s top five favourite drinks?
