#17 The 1995/96 Season with Tony Jameson and Phil Walker

When Football Began Again

Host Carl Jones is joined by comedian Aston Villa fan and host of @TheAthletic 's The Football Manager Show, Tony Jameson, and comedian and Manchester United fan Phil Walker. In an action-packed show, we discuss the memorable moments, unforgettable matches and iconic meltdowns that made the 1995/96 season one of the Premier League era's all-time greats.

We cover the seemingly unassailable lead of Kevin Keegan's thrilling Newcastle United side - and the slow but steady disintegration of that cushion. We remember a famous night at Anfield where an era-defining 90 minutes turned the title race on its head and would eventually lead to a post-match interview that would be parodied to this day. And we look at the influential imports that arrived this season that would become legends with Bergkamp, Juninho, Ginola and Kinkladze all arriving on English shores to light up the Premier League.

One player has two entries into our Goal of the Season but still doesn't win and there's a tricky round of #PlayYourAppsRight to get involved with at home to finish.
