THE TEN MINUTE FORTNIGHT: Andy overhears a conversation about cricket discipline; Toby plays in a family grudge match "The pavilion had the most perfectly positioned loo." FROM THE ARCHIVES (10'00): When Left-Handers were in danger of being banned from the game "Most things you Google, you get pages and pages of results. For the Academy of Statistical Studies, you get just three hits." THE REVIEW (21'50): One Long and Beautiful Summer: A Short Elegy for Red Ball Cricket by Duncan Hamilton (2020) "At its best, it makes you think about how *you* watch cricket." Recorded 12 August 2024

Duncan Hamilton watched England beat West Germany as an eight-year-old boy in the company of his father and grandfather. He recalls 'Wembley, spread out in the sun; the waving flags; the delirious, joy-of-all-joys moment of the final whistle; the trophy sparkling in the late afternoon light'.But, seeing the whole game again during the misery of the first Covid lockdown, finally made him realise what Alf Ramsey and his players had no inkling of, which was what came next for them. How, for many of those boys of summer, almost everything after that shimmering moment amounted to an anti-climax or a setback. How '66 was not a beginning, a guaranteed path towards more success, but a slow decline and fall, and also a disproportionate number of disappointments. And how the triumph of '66 was dulled through constant repetition, the same images always flashed before us.Hamilton recognised, too, how many myths and misconceptions had grown around the match.He decided to revisit '66, tracing the very roots of a story - as well as the hidden figures within it - that really began during the era of post-War austerity.Answered Prayers provides, at last, a full account of English football's greatest achievement and the failures that followed it. We see the institutional inability to appreciate Ramsey and his players, who were taken for granted; the political machinations of the blazered fools who ran the Football Association; the short-sighted blunderers of the Football League.To buy 'Answered Prayers' please visit - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Answered-Prayers-England-1966-World-ebook/dp/B0BRS88NXY Hosted on Acast.

At last, the JEC Podcast returns and we are back in fine style with part one of an exciting interview that investigates the background and lives of the two drivers who took Jaguar to victory at Le Mans in 1953, Tony Rolt and Duncan Hamilton.We investigate the fascinating and heroic lives of these Jaguar icons with their descendants, as Wayne talks to Stuart Rolt (Major Tony Rolt's son), Caroline Lee (Duncan Hamilton's daughter) and Dominic Hamilton (Duncan Hamilton's grandson). We also take the opportunity to explore the myths surrounding the lead-up to the 1953 Le Mans. Did Rolt and Hamilton really head down to a bar to drown their sorrows and end up having to sober up and jump straight in the cars? Or was it all just an elaborate story to sell more copies of Duncan Hamilton's Biography, Touch Wood? The answer is within this podcast! This interview was reproduced on the JEC Podcast with the kind permission of the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust and was originally filmed as a video for their archives.

Today on the podcast is Duncan Hamilton! One of the most prolific distance runners in the history of Montana State Track and Field, Duncan Hamilton, has set standards that will stand the test of time. Hamilton, a product of Bozeman High School, owns six Montana State records – three indoors and three outdoors. He also holds the all-time Big Sky Conference record in the 3000-meter steeplechase. Last spring, he had a season to remember, which culminated in a fourth-place steeplechase finish at the USA Track and Field Championships. Last season, he was the NCAA steeplechase runner-up. This spring, Hamilton won his fourth consecutive Big Sky Conference championship steeple title. This past season, he had another runner-up finish in the steeplechase at NCAAs and made the final at USAs. Duncan also announced, leading into USAs, that he had made the decision to sign with Nike's Bowerman Track Club. In today's episode, Duncan takes me through his first few months of professional running, his decision to sign with BTC, how he got his start in the sport, his progression through high school and college, and so much more! It was very enjoyable learning from one of the biggest up-and-coming steeple stars in the world. Tap into the Duncan Hamilton Special.

Duncan Hamilton – Answered prayers: England and the 1966 World Cup...with TRE's Giles Brown

In part two of our series, Duncan Hamilton and Tony Rolt begin their assault on the Le Mans 24-hour race.

Not to waste the evening, Rolt and Hamilton have a huge night out, only to find out they might not be disqualified after all. Titus O'Reily and Mick Molloy discuss the wildest 24-hour Le Mans race in history, and the two men at the centre of it. If you'd like more Sports Bizarre, become a member of Bizarre Plus.

As a baby, Duncan Hamilton crashed his pram down 38 steps. This proved to be just a precursor to him crashing cars and planes. Despite the crashes, he was fast, incredibly fast, becoming one of the great race car drivers of his era. Then he met Tony Rolt, a war hero who had escaped from seven German prisoner-of-war camps, and the two formed one of the great racing partnerships of all time. Titus O'Reily and Mick Molloy discuss a friendship that led to one of the greatest Le Mans races in history. If you'd like more Sports Bizarre, become a member of Bizarre Plus.

George Best, detto Georgie, nato a Belfast il 22 maggio 1946, scomparve a Londra il 25 novembre 2005. Di ruolo attaccante, è ritenuto uno dei migliori calciatori di tutti i tempi. In questo podcast, lo scrittore Duncan Hamilton, racconta per Storiainpodcast la leggenda di George Best.“Se fossi nato brutto, non avreste mai sentito parlare di Pelé”. Molte parole vere sono dette per scherzo, e pochi potrebbero sostenere che George Best sia stato il calciatore più naturalmente dotato che la Gran Bretagna abbia prodotto. La velocità, l'equilibrio, la visione di gioco, il superbo controllo ravvicinato, la capacità di creare occasioni e di segnare da situazioni apparentemente impossibili raccontano metà della storia. L'altra metà era un'incontenibile passione per il gioco come dovrebbe essere giocato, una gioia e un'astuzia incessanti. Pelé, da parte sua, ha definito il numero 7 dello United “il più grande giocatore del mondo”. Un adolescente dal fisico magro del quartiere Cregagh di Belfast, fu notato dal talent scout dello United Bob Bishop, che disse a Matt Busby: “Capo, credo di averti trovato un genio”. Dopo aver combattuto l'iniziale nostalgia di casa, Best diventa professionista il giorno del suo 17° compleanno, nel maggio 1963, e debutta a settembre, segnando alla sua seconda apparizione. Nel 1964/65, insieme a Denis Law, Bobby Charlton e David Herd, Best è una figura chiave per il primo titolo dei Reds dall'era pre-Monaco. La stagione successiva distrugge quasi da solo il Benfica nei quarti di finale della Coppa Europa. Dopo aver segnato due volte nel 5-1 che inflisse ai giganti di Lisbona la prima sconfitta casalinga in Europa, fu soprannominato “El Beatle”. Un secondo titolo seguì nel 1967, e Best si dimostrò il flagello del Benfica anche l'anno dopo, nella finale della Coppa Europa del 1968, portando i Reds in vantaggio per 2-1 ai tempi supplementari e vincendo per 4-1. I 28 gol di Best in quella stagione lo resero il capocannoniere dello United, posizione che mantenne anche nelle quattro campagne successive. Con la fine dell'era Busby e lo smantellamento di una squadra invecchiata, Best lotta con i demoni personali che lo accompagneranno fino alla morte, avvenuta nel novembre 2005. Nel 1972 si è notoriamente “ritirato” a Marbella, per poi tornare e partire definitivamente nel gennaio 1974 per una serie di destinazioni itineranti che lo hanno portato, tra l'altro, nei dintorni piuttosto improbabili di Dunstable Town, Fulham, Los Angeles Aztecs, Brisbane Lions e Jewish Guild of South Africa. Come lui stesso ha chiesto, dovrebbe essere ricordato per i titoli delle ultime pagine, non per quelli delle prime. Le sue 361 presenze in campionato in rosso hanno portato 136 gol; detiene il record del dopoguerra per il maggior numero di gol di un giocatore dello United in una singola partita: sei contro il Northampton Town, in un 8-2 di FA Cup al quinto turno nel 1970. L'addio di Best nel novembre 2005, in un pomeriggio di applausi tumultuosi al West Ham, fu seguito da una partita di cui sarebbe stato giustamente orgoglioso. Il connazionale John O'Shea segnò il gol della vittoria.Duncan Hamilton, scrittore e giornalista inglese, ha scritto “Immortal”, la biografia di George Best.

Colter Nuanez and producer man Tommy Evans talk all things music before Colter gives an update on the Missoula Marathon, ultra runner Adam Peterman and Montana State virtuoso Duncan Hamilton in this week's River City Runners. Plus, Colter rehashes his burning talking point of debating the legacies of Kobe Bryant and Stephen Curry. 

In a wide-ranging first hour, Colter Nuanez tells the story of how he won - and then left behind - the award for Montana Sports Broadcaster of the Year, shares sound from Duncan Hamilton after the Montana State runner finished second in the steeplechase at NCAA nationals, lists the best visiting players he's ever seen at Washington-Grizzly Stadium and Bobcat Stadium, and talks to Dylan Snyder, Butte High football star who'll play for the 'Cats this fall.

Just about 24 hours before he'll run in the steeplechase at the NCAA Track & Field Regionals, Montana State superstar Duncan Hamilton joins Colter Nuanez. Colter and Andrew Houghton also clarify some points and continue their discussion about the upstart LIV Golf tour, which is preparing for its first event this weekend.

Duncan Hamilton is the podcast guest for this episode where he revisits his award winning book on English cricketer Harold Larwood. Hamilton who is a three time winner of the prestigious https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Hill_Sports_Book_of_the_Year award has brought Larwood back to life through his maginicent account. Larwood remains one of the most tragic characters the game has ever seen given his relationship with MCC, English fans and the English cricket community suffered a great deal post the infamous Bodyline series. Hamilton talks about why he chose to write about the man from Trent Bridge and how one of the most misunderstood stories in cricket history had to be retold with a fresh perspective. No conversation on Larwood would be complete without the following men - Douglas Jardine, Bill Voce, Arthur Carr and of course Don Bradman. In this episode we revisit some of the key events from the Larwood story which is stranger than most fiction works on sporting figures and helps the reader to fully understand the journey of the fast bowler. We also talk about the paperback release of Hamilton's upcoming novel - Injury Time. https://www.amazon.com/Harold-Larwood-Duncan-Hamilton-ebook/dp/B077Y6DCLD/ref=sr_1_1?crid=10O8OL7EN7TDR&keywords=duncan+hamilton+larwood&qid=1648963867&sprefix=duncan+hamilton+larwood%2Caps%2C90&sr=8-1 https://www.amazon.com/Injury-Time-Novel-Duncan-Hamilton/dp/1529408431/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1C8IG3FZ7L5AY&keywords=duncan+hamilton+injury+time&qid=1648963925&sprefix=duncan+hamilton+injury+time%2Caps%2C59&sr=8-1 https://www.amazon.com/One-Long-Beautiful-Summer-Red-Ball-ebook/dp/B09L7XR9N9/ref=sr_1_3?crid=21PO3FC60F8HH&keywords=duncan+hamilton+cricket+books&qid=1648964279&sprefix=duncan+hamilton+cricket+books%2Caps%2C90&sr=8-3

His first book, Provided You Don't Kiss Me:20 Years with Brian Clough, won the William Hill Sports Book of the Year, and award he has subsequently won another two times. He has just released his first fiction novel, Injury Time.We had a really interesting chat with Duncan about his route into sports journalism and hear what led him to move into the world of books. We talk about how he picks his subjects for his non-fiction books and find out why he has decided to move into the world of novel writing with Injury Time. We also have a chat about why football (soccer for our US listeners!) never seems to work in movies, and, given this episode was recorded just before the Euro 2020 final, Marco and him briefly discuss prospects for their respective teams...Links:Buy Duncan's booksThe Page One Podcast is brought to you by Write Gear, creators of Page One - the Writer's Notebook.

One of the first golfers with a disability I saw play was Duncan Hamilton-Martin. Duncan was playing in Swindon, and I was there to observe the event. My objective was to get a feel for what golf for the disabled was all about. Duncan was on the tee, and if I remember rightly, he ripped a tee shot down the middle.

THE TEN MINUTE FORTNIGHT: Andy rediscovers the joy of bowling, and Toby enjoys a 'shock' England call-up "These days, like so many batsman who don't really bowl, I attempt offspin. Much to my astonishment, my second ball turned and hit middle stump. I had so little faith in my bowling, that I didn't celebrate but assumed that the keeper had knocked the bails off." FROM THE ARCHIVES (8'25): Samuel Beckett, the cricketer "I recently read a theory that Waiting for Godot is all about cricket. At the heart of the play is the question of how you keep an audience glued to their seats while everything happened for several days? A perfect description for cricket. ."

Andy, that's called leading the witness." Recorded 10 July 2021

Neville Cardus described how one majestic stroke-maker 'made music' and 'spread beauty' with his bat. Between two world wars, he became the laureate of cricket by doing the same with words. In The Great Romantic, award-winning author Duncan Hamilton demonstrates how Cardus changed sports journalism for ever. While popularising cricket - while appealing, in Cardus' words to people who 'didn't know a leg-break from the pavilion cat at Lord's'- he became a star in his own right with exquisite phrase-making, disdain for statistics and a penchant for literary and musical allusions. Among those who venerated Cardus were PG Wodehouse, John Arlott, Harold Pinter, JB Priestley and Don Bradman. However, behind the rhapsody in blue skies, green grass and colourful characters, this richly evocative biography finds that Cardus' mother was a prostitute, he never knew his father and he received negligible education. Infatuations with younger women ran parallel to a decidedly unromantic marriage. And, astonishingly, the supreme stylist's aversion to factual accuracy led to his reporting on matches he never attended. Yet Cardus also belied his impoverished origins to prosper in a second class-conscious profession, becoming a music critic of international renown. The Great Romantic uncovers the dark enigma within a golden age.

The two-time winner of the prestigious William Hill Sports Book of the Year award about 'Immortal', his new approved biography of George Best. Hamilton's book on Brian Clough was superb, while his biography of the outstanding fast bowler Harold Larwood, the main protagonist in the controversial 'Bodyline' series between Australia and England in 1932-33, also won awards. Having spent three years researching Immortal, during which he spoke to hundreds of people closest to Best and went through 5,000 cuttings, Hamilton offers rare insight into the Belfast Boy.

Being blind hasn't ever stopped the broadcaster Peter White from loving football, and that's reflected in his own choice of a good read when he argues in favour of Brian Clough - as captured by Duncan Hamilton who covered Notts Forest during their glory years for the local paper. By contrast the satirist and prankster Heydon Prowse, fresh from his BBC3 series, 'The Revolution will be Televised', brings a description of tax havens and how they work to the table, in 'Treasure Islands' by Nicholas Shaxson. Harriett Gilbert meanwhile proposes 'Faro's Daughter', a romantic Regency thriller by Georgette Heyer. We'll see what Peter and Heydon make of that. Producer: Mark Smalley

The book describes Simon's time with Graves in Deya, Majorca, and his uncle's beautiful muse Margot who they were both in love with. The White Goddess - An Encounter is published by Galley Beggar Press. Duncan Hamilton is a sports writer and two-time winner of the William Hill Sports Book of the Year. His book, 'The Footballer Who Could Fly' was inspired by his father's devotion to Newcastle United.
