That’s all I remember about him … chain smoked his way through that WC.

That Peru game was well dodgy, they'd looked really impressive up to then, but rolled over far too easily. Didn't Argentina have to win that game by a few goals to qualify?

Review: Boys From the Blackstuff at Liverpool's Royal Court *****
In the autumn of 1982, the UK’s official unemployment figure stood at almost three million.Liverpool accounted for more than 96,000 of that – while there were fewer than 2,000 vacancies advertised in the city’s job centres.So it’s perhaps no wonder a new TV series, written by Alan Bleasdale and...
