Steven Foster joins us this week and we've come away with one question: how did this man play professional football? We knew he liked a beer, but the more we dig into his lifestyle, the more amazed we get. Three months sleeping on a bare bed with no mattress, no electricity, no food. lLving out of the pub until closing. That same season, he won League One and Player of the Season. Add in a Christmas Eve grilling from Ian Holloway, skinny-dipping in Magaluf in front of a family in Doncaster shirts, and getting arrested and deported on a trip to watch England  we are in classic cosh territory with this one.

*The full three-part series is available on Patreon now*Jonathan Wilson and Rob Draper pay tribute to Kevin Keegan, who died in July aged 75, reflecting on his rare charisma, self-awareness, and ability to connect with people, as well as his status as the only British player to win the Ballon d'Or twice. They trace his working-class upbringing in Armthorpe near Doncaster, his family's mining and Labour roots, and formative influences like Sister Mary Oliver, who encouraged his football. The episode follows Keegan's unlikely early path—rejected by Doncaster and Coventry, starting at Scunthorpe—through his move to Liverpool under Bill Shankly, where his fitness, motivation, and partnership with John Toshack helped drive major success, alongside growing fame via endorsements and Superstars. They end with Keegan's decision to leave as Liverpool approach European glory.00:00 Tribute to Keegan01:09 Charisma and Kindness06:19 Roots in Doncaster09:14 Mining Heritage15:22 School and Sweetheart22:21 Rejected Then Spotted24:28 Scunthorpe Breakthrough28:18 Move to Liverpool30:03 Negotiating His Worth33:34 Late Arrival Debut35:22 Toshack Partnership35:47 Sweat Box Fitness37:10 Telepathy Test Hoax40:12 Shankly Mind Games41:46 Celebrity Endorsements47:26 Superstars Bike Crash49:48 Trophies And Turning Point54:44 Shankly Leaves Fallout57:34 European Peak Exit Plan Hosted on Acast.

(Warning, I think this guest swears more than me!) Before we entered Lockdown 2.0 in November 2020, we had the pleasure of high tea'ing with a young gentleman by the name of Yungblud at mum's. Whilst sipping on champagne and eating sausage rolls, Yungblud (real name Dominic) talks all about Hobnobs, Yorkshire tea & his mum's Doncaster cake shop ‘Jaffa & Cakes', named after the family sausage dog. He tells us about his rockstar lifestyle; hanging out in 'Hollyweird', nights out with Brooklyn Beckham, elephant tattoos & just wanting a pint of lager at Noma, the best restaurant in the world. Dominic has now released 2 additional albums since we met - ‘Yungblud' & ‘Idols' are both out now!Listen & watch Table Manners here - https://tablemanners.komi.io/Follow Table Manners on:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/tablemannerspodcast/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@tablemannerspodcastFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/tablemannerspodcastYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@TableMannersPodcast Hosted on Acast.

  GB2RS News Sunday the 2nd of August 2026   The news headlines: Exciting opportunities within the RSGB Regional Team RSGB Examinations Standards Committee publishes annual report  Changes to the Youth Committee An exciting volunteer opportunity has arisen to lead the RSGB Regional Team following the decision by George Crawford, GM1DSV to stand down as Regional Forum Chair once the right candidate is appointed. The RSGB would like to express its thanks to George who will be focusing his time on serving Region 1 as its Regional Representative. The role of Regional Forum Chair is ideal for someone who is passionate about amateur radio, teamwork and empowering volunteers. This is a standout volunteer opportunity for someone who wants to make a meaningful impact across all regions, support our dedicated Regional and District Representatives, and strengthen the connection between members, volunteers and the wider organisation. The RSGB is also looking for a Regional Forum Secretary to support the smooth running of activity behind the scenes. This is a fantastic volunteer opportunity for someone who thrives on coordination, communication and teamwork, and wants to play a key role in supporting the Regional Team Chair and the entire Regional Forum. Find out more about both roles, along with details of how to apply, by going to rsgb.org/volunteers  You can use the same link to find out about District Representative roles in various regions around the country. The RSGB Examinations Standards Committee, or ESC, has published its annual report, relating to activities in 2025. The report shows that, although overall candidate numbers in 2025 decreased a little compared with 2024, they remain about 20% higher than predictions based on the extrapolation of pre-2019 trends. The ESC believes that this is largely due to the increased accessibility of training courses and examinations online. The ESC noted that the initial feedback received from candidates on the publication of the Full level question bank has been very positive. However, a few months of exam data are needed before the full impact of the measure can be assessed, and then consideration given to rolling it out at other levels. You can read the report by going to rsgb.org/esc  and choosing the ‘Minutes, papers and reports' tab on the righthand side of the web page. RSGB Board Director and Board liaison for the Youth Committee Nathan Nuttall, MM9OCC has announced that the RSGB Youth Chair Chris Aitken, MM0WIC has stepped down from his role as Chair. Chris, who is a teacher at Wick High School, has secured an ARISS contact for his school and will be using his time to focus on activities surrounding this. The current RSGB Youth Vice-Chair Leon Shaw, M0VUF will step up as Chair and the RSGB Youth Champion for Scouts Sam McCutchion, M0UEL will take on the Vice-Chair position. Sam will continue in his role as Scout Champion until a suitable replacement can be found. The RSGB is preparing to launch a new Training and Development Lead pilot role to help rebuild structured engagement with trainers, support new licensees, and strengthen the wider training environment. This 12-month pilot will focus on listening, mapping, evidence gathering and supporting the training community. Some initial information was outlined in the August RadCom strategy update and more details will be shared in August, including how trainers and providers can get involved. The July 2026 issue of RadCom Basics is now available in the RSGB mobile and web app for members to enjoy. RadCom Basics is aimed at newcomers to amateur radio and those who enjoy refreshing their skills and knowledge. The July issue includes articles on DMR for beginners, RF connectors and dummy loads.

Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday the 30th of July 2026. We've had quite a reasonable period of HF propagation over the past seven days. The solar flux index remained quite high and conditions have been quite stable, apart from a geomagnetic disturbance on Thursday the 23rd of July that saw the Kp index rise to 5.33. The solar flux index has been in the 140s and 150s, which bodes well for HF. There have been reliable openings up to at least the 15m band. We are still around eight weeks away from the start of better Autumnal HF conditions, but it is looking promising. At the time of writing there were nine active regions visible on the Sun, bringing a solar flux index of 143 and a sunspot number of 123. However, for software prediction purposes you are better off using August's current smoothed sunspot number of 84. The sunspots we do have are mostly clustered around the Sun's equator, which is quite normal for this point in the solar cycle. We normally associate high-latitude sunspots with the beginning of a new cycle, which is still many years away. Paul, GM4ULS reported a contact suddenly vanishing on 5MHz SSB around 1530UTC on Sunday the 26th of July. This was caused by a sudden ionospheric disturbance, or SID, due to an M-class solar flare. A SID usually sounds like someone has just ‘switched off' the ionosphere, although recovery can be quite quick. DX to be worked next week includes E51KEE on the Cook Islands; YS/WE9G from El Salvador; C6AYM in the Bahamas; T2JK in Tuvalu; UK/SP9DLM from Uzbekistan and OX3LX working from Greenland. The Arctic Legends team is now operating as RI0BU from Uedineniya Island until Friday the 7th of August. The higher bands, such as 15 and 10m, currently favour north-south paths, for example UK to South Africa and South America. The 20m band should be more usable for paths to North America. NOAA predicts that the Sun's activity may decline slightly in the coming week. A solar flux index in the range 120 to 130 is predicted.  A geomagnetic disturbance is forecast for Tuesday the 4th of August, with a predicted Kp index of 4. This should recover over subsequent days, back to a more usual 2 to 3. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO The current spells of very hot weather have set their own agenda for radio conditions when it comes to tropo.   We have a tick for the high pressure, but the extreme temperatures have meant that the tropo-producing temperature inversions seldom survive the daytime heating over the land. It is only coastal stations that remain in the lift conditions during the daytime.  The weather forecast models for the coming period suggest that the weather pattern is trying to become more unsettled but, as in recent weeks, it seems to take a while to materialise in some parts of the country.  However, it will bring two changes for radio activity. One is slightly cooler weather and some showery rain, so there is a chance of rain scatter. Secondly, there will perhaps be less reliable tropo as the high pressure weakens. Some potential tropo paths probably remain from the fragmented elements of high pressure, but it may be rather hit and miss. Meteor scatter is worth checking out during the next few weeks with two smaller showers, the Southern Delta Aquarids and the Alpha Capricornids peaking at the end of July before the lead-up to the Perseids in mid-August. The solar conditions are still in play for the effects of coronal mass ejections from the Sun and the potential for auroras. So that's another mode to keep on the list. Lastly, a mention for Sporadic-E which continues through August and produced daily North American openings for many last week. Jet streams are often the driving force for turbulence in the lower atmosphere, and can influence the location of Sporadic-E. In the coming week they will probably not help greatly due to a very weak pattern over Europe. It's still worth checking out during the two usual windows of activity in the mid-morning and late afternoon. For EME operators, Moon declination is increasing again with consequent northern hemisphere increases in Moon window length and peak Moon elevation. Path losses will decrease as the week progresses towards perigee on Monday the 10th of August. 144MHz sky noise is low to moderate all week. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday the 23rd of July 2026 We said last week that there were no coronal holes to worry about. Yet two days later a massive crack appeared on the Sun, stretching over one million kilometres. Luckily, this didn't amount to much and it had little effect on HF propagation, but it does go to show that solar events can rapidly develop and that long-term forecasts can be tricky. The solar flux index has increased over the past week, and was sitting at 150 as this report was being written. As we suggested earlier, geomagnetic conditions have been quiet with the Kp index generally below 3.5, which bodes well for HF. Solar conditions have been good with only four M-class solar flares and no X-class events. Any coronal mass ejections, or CMEs, have been directed away from Earth. We are still in the summer doldrums, so D-layer absorption remains high and maximum useable frequencies, or MUFs, are generally lower than in the autumn and winter. However, we have the IOTA contest this weekend, which is a great opportunity to work some far-flung DX. So why not dust off your radio and get on the air? With mainland Great Britain being an island, you might find you are in demand as EU-005! Other DX to be worked this week includes RI0BW, the Arctic Legends IOTA DXpedition; 3B9HR from Rodrigues Island; PJ7/LA5IIA on St Maarten; TY5FR from Benin; E51CZZ and E51KEE on the Cook Islands; VU4R from the Andaman Islands; and VP5G operating from Turks and Caicos. In the coming week, NOAA predicts that the solar flux index may fall back to 125 at first, and then down to around 108. Luckily, the Kp index is predicted to remain low, with a predicted Kp of 2, at least until the end of the month. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO There have been good examples of both tropo and Sporadic-E in the last week and there are reasons to continue with some optimism for the coming week. This is still a good period for summer tropo. However, remember that hot days are the enemy of tropo over land and it tends to be sea paths that survive throughout the day, whereas land stations have to make the best of nighttime operations. That said, the main change in the weather pattern this coming week will be that the high pressure, which has been over the Atlantic just west of Britain, shifts into the continent and eventually out of reach by the end of next week. So, the message is to get into the tropo while it's here and use the latter part of the week for perhaps meteor scatter, with the Delta Aquarids peaking in the coming week. There is reserved optimism for this since it's primarily a southern hemisphere event. Rain scatter has been very hard to find recently but looks like making a comeback as the weather turns more unsettled with sequences of fronts crossing the country. Maybe only patchy weak fronts, but still worth considering. The summer aurora prospects are staying on the marginal side but watch out for Kp index values creeping above 5 before turning your beams north. Sporadic-E, which is rolling along in main summer season fashion, has been very good lately and was producing a full set of bands, up to 2m, last Thursday the 23rd of July. As the weather turns a bit more unsettled, this could help with Sporadic-E. This could happen if the fronts move into the continent and weak jet streams, and possibly thundery cold fronts, create turbulence at the right sort of range over Europe. This will probably favour paths to Scandinavia and to the Balkans. For EME operators, Moon declination reaches minimum today, the 26th, so Moon window lengths and peak Moon elevation are at their lowest value. With apogee yesterday, the 25th, path losses will decrease as the week progresses. 144MHz sky noise is high to start the week, peaking at over 2800 Kelvin today, the 26th, before slowly decreasing in the coming week. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

Racing in Ireland on Saturday is at the Curragh (18th July 2026). Cross-channel, there are meetings in Market Rasen, Newbury, Cartmel, Ripon, Doncaster and Nottingham. With his 'Saturday Six,' here's George McDonagh.

In Part 2 of our special from Vicar Street on the Katie Taylor/Croker Park, it's a heavyweight special - fitting, given Muhammad Ali was the last fighter to headline there.‘No Carty, No Party' seems to be the case once again as Dublin heavyweight Thomas Carty takes on durable Doncaster puncher Dave Allen in a make-or-break fight for both men. Carty grew up dreaming of playing for Dublin at Croke Park. Allen, meanwhile, is barely aware of the place and, with respect, doesn't really care about its significance. We hear from both on why what happens between the ropes is all that matters.Katie's cousin, Molly ‘Meatball' McCann, a former UFC fighter, has secured a slot on the bill as she looks to add to her 4-0 boxing record in Dublin. We talk about the numbers game, the cold, hard currency of clicks, and why being kicked in the ring on her last visit to Ireland sent her career skyrocketing.Bobbi Flood, one of Ireland's brightest prospects, also tells us how his cheeky teenage prediction to Eddie Hearn almost - kinda, sorta - came true.And it wouldn't be a heavyweight special without Adam Olaniyan, the blessed Tallaght tower who's coming for them all. Everyone keeps saying this is once-in-a-lifetime stuff, that Croker will never happen again. All the while, Adam is planning his first world title defence there. Hosted on Acast.

Have you ever been told you aren't good enough to do something, then gone ahead and proved the naysayers wrong by doing it anyway - in glorious, headline-grabbing style? That is the satisfying story of Dr Dean Lomax. Dean grew up in Doncaster with a passion for fossils but after failing various school exams, was told by teachers that he'd never make it as a palaeontologist. Undeterred by leaving school with no qualifications, Dean sold his childhood Star Wars collection to fund a fossil-hunting trip to America that changed his life - after which a chance discovery led to him publishing his first ever scientific paper at the age of just 20. Today, he's an expert on ichthyosaurs - the massive marine reptiles that once inhabited our seas - and has discovered and named several new species, written books for both adults and children, and brought the prehistoric world to life on TV. Talking to Professor Jim Al-Khalili, Dean discusses dinosaurs as a 'gateway science', discovering the Rutland Sea Dragon and the importance of cutting out noise from nay-sayers to follow your dreams...

Racing in Ireland on Saturday is in Punchestown (6th June 2026). Cross channel, the Epsom Derby is the feature while there are also meetings in Chepstown, Doncaster, Hexham, Lingfield, Musselborough and Worcester. With his 'Saturday Six,' here's George McDonagh.

Simon Price hasn't ridden in a race for five years but still spends plenty of time in the saddle. He's at Morphettville trackwork three mornings a week, and has a regular presence at the barrier trials and jumpouts. With sons Will and Ben both forging successful riding careers in Adelaide, Price Snr is content to take a back seat these days. Simon's CV credits him with close to 2000 winners including a host of black type features. At the height of his career he had regular support from many leading stables and a strong public following. In response to several requests for an interview with the talented horseman I'm pleased to say job's done! Simon joins us on this week's podcast to look back on his very rewarding career.  He talks about his Morphettville trackwork involvement three times a week for some discerning trainers. Simon says he also works a “day job” at a prominent landscaping business owned by an old friend. He looks back on a snap decision in 2020 to relocate to NSW at the request of former South Australian horseman Sam Kavanagh. Simon recalls going all the way to Mudgee to ride his first winner for Kavanagh. The veteran says a Tamworth success on More Sundays for Kavanagh was his last winning ride. Simon pays tribute to Sam Kavanagh who died after a short illness 18 months ago. He looks back on childhood days in Adelaide and pays tribute to his parents. Simon recalls the unlikely circumstances that would trigger his introduction to horses. He talks of early tuition from George Davison and a subsequent apprenticeship to Peter Hayes at Oakbank.  Simon says Peter Hayes was a thoughtful boss who encouraged him to ride for other trainers. He clearly remembers his first race ride at Cheltenham and his first win at a now defunct racecourse close to the Victorian border. The fifty five year old remembers the support he received from some prominent Adelaide trainers. He looks back on a “loan-out” to Cranbourne trainer Colin Alderson. During this time Peter Hayes sent a horse to Melbourne to run in the inaugural C.S Hayes Stakes at Moonee Valley. Young Simon gained the ride and it was a dream result. We randomly reminisce with Price about some of his favourite horses beginning with the Russell Cameron trained Shavano Miss- an unpleasant mare with great ability. Simon looks back on a surprise phone call from the Waterhouse stable and the offer of a Doncaster ride. He thought someone was “pulling his leg.”  He looks back on a brief association with the Leon Corstens trained Cherontessa which led to a win in the Gr 1 South Australian Oaks. Simon couldn't believe his luck when history repeated itself the following year. WA owner Bob Peters sent Miss Margaret to Peter Hayes for a three race campaign. Simon got the ride and won the Gr 3 Auraria, ran second in the Australasian Oaks before winning the Gr 1 South Australian Oaks.  The jockey enjoyed several successful stints in Singapore including one twelve month stay. He was delighted to win the 1998 Gr 1 Singapore Gold Cup on the Malcolm Thwaites trained Three Crowns. It was the last Cup to be staged at the Bukit Timah track. Six weeks later Simon rode Three Crowns in the Melbourne Cup, and was deeply saddened when the genuine gelding broke down at the top of the straight. Simon had little hesitation in declaring Fields Of Omagh to be the best horse he rode in a race. The jockey was on board for three of the gelding's South Australian wins. One of those wins was at Cheltenham the other two at Victoria Park. Both tracks have subsequently been closed. Price had a big opinion of the brilliant but unsound mare La Baraka. He won two Group 3 races on the daughter of Euclase and hasn't forgotten her glaring conformation faults. Most Adelaide jockeys greatly value wins in the Goodwood Hcp and the Adelaide Cup. He regrets not being able to win either. He ran second in both races to horses ridden by the same top Victorian jockey. Simon says a busy work routine has helped him deal with a difficult time since the passing of his wife Belinda. He pays tribute to sons Will and Ben and daughter Abby who has in turn given him two adored grandsons. The elder Price reviews the careers so far of sons Will and Ben. Both young jockeys are currently settled in Adelaide where they're getting good support from prominent stables.  I remember the days in the broadcast box when I'd watch Adelaide races in between Sydney events. Simon Price won a huge number of those races. Great to welcome him as a podcast guest.

Ade Oladipo and Gareth A Davies unpack Saturday night in Doncaster where Dave Allen was soundly beaten by Filip HrogvicWe hear from Allen who tells he is proud to have headlined such a big event and admits he was levels below his opponent, as for Hrgovic, is a fight with Moses Itauma now the one to make later this year?We hear from Rico Verhoeven ahead of his fight with Oleksandr Usyk this weekend, we also run through the undercard which looks more competitive than the main event.And we hear from Ryan Garcia who revealed on US television that he will be fighting Conor Benn later this year! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Though not yet formally announced, Ryan Garcia has signalled that a showdown with Conor Benn, at welterweight, will happen in Las Vegas on September 12. It seems certain to be one of the year's biggest and most lucrative contests albeit a divisive one given their chequered pasts with drug-testing agencies. It's set to occur on the same day that Canelo Alvarez returns, in Saudi Arabia, to challenge for a super middleweight belt against Christian Mbilli. Does this mean that Turki Alalshikh is plotting another all-conquering weekend extravaganza? Closer to home, in Doncaster, Dave Allen's place in the heavyweight landscape was again revealed when he was pulled out in three rounds against Filip Hrgovic. The result was predictable, but again brings into focus the role of referees, trainers and doctors when it comes to stopping a fight. In This Week we go back to 1990, a new decade in its infancy and two of the finest fighters of the time – Pernell ‘Sweet Pea' Whittaker and Azumah Nelson – making their cases to be recognised among the leaders of the sport.

New series. Eight years deep. Same nonsense. We're kicking things off with a belter… Pascal Chimbonda and trust us, he delivers. Perhaps the most laid-back man in the world, but my word he's got some stories. Rocking up at Wigan without speaking a word of English, his time there was eventful on and off the pitch. A brilliant debut season saw him earn a shock call-up to France's World Cup squad but it all ended in dramatic fashion when he handed in a transfer request in the dressing room straight after the final game of the season. With front-row seats for Zidane's infamous headbutt, we find out exactly what Wigan's Pascal Chimbonda says to French legend Zizou after he's potentially cost him a World Cup winners' medal. Dubbed Roy Keane's “worst ever signing”, we dig into what really went wrong between them and along the way hear plenty of stories about being pinned up by Big Dunc, Jimmy Bullard's antics, and sharing a dressing room with Browny at Doncaster.
