Arion, Rebecca and Olly recall the shocking events of the Heysel Stadium disaster, which lead to all English football clubs being banned from European competitions for five years from 2nd June, 1985. The tragedy occurred during the European Cup final between Liverpool and Juventus, when hooligans from both clubs had infiltrated the neutral sections. The policing was inadequate, with officers diverted by minor thefts, and the stadium's security measures woefully insufficient. 39 fans died, and 600 were injured, but, astonishingly, the match continued - with Juventus winning 1-0. In this episode, The Retrospectors discover how the ban led to the creation of the ill-fated ‘Screensport Super Cup'; consider how Rupert Murdoch's investment in rights transformed the sport; and reveal how the ban affected English clubs' ability to attract international talent… Love the show?

Flensburg retained their European League title over the weekend, thanks in no small part to a dominant performance by Kevin Møller in goal. We look back at the action and where the title was won and lost. Aron Palmarsson has announced his retirement at the age of 34, is this kind of player a dying breed? We discuss this and the postponed European Cup final in Skopje.
In 1992, European football was at a turning point. The European Cup was going to be replaced with a new format: The Champions League. European football's governing body, Uefa wanted a classical theme to accompany the new competition, in an attempt to try and fix the image of football which was mired by hooliganism at the time. Tony Britten was the man tasked with writing such a piece of music. He tells Tim O'Callaghan how he did it. Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by the past. We take you to the events that have shaped our world through the eyes of the people who were there. For nine minutes every day, we take you back in time and all over the world, to examine wars, coups, scientific discoveries, cultural moments and much more. Recent episodes explore everything from football in Brazil, the history of the ‘Indian Titanic' and the invention of air fryers, to Public Enemy's Fight The Power, subway art and the political crisis in Georgia. We look at the lives of some of the most famous leaders, artists, scientists and personalities in history, including: visionary architect Antoni Gaudi and the design of the Sagrada Familia; Michael Jordan and his bespoke Nike trainers; Princess Diana at the Taj Mahal; and Görel Hanser, manager of legendary Swedish pop band Abba on the influence they've had on the music industry. You can learn all about fascinating and surprising stories, such as the time an Iraqi journalist hurled his shoes at the President of the United States in protest of America's occupation of Iraq; the creation of the Hollywood commercial that changed advertising forever; and the ascent of the first Aboriginal MP.(Photo: Tony in his studio.

This is the penultimate podcast in which Patrick Barclay appeared. In it the original Football Ruined My Life panel of Paddy, Jon Holmes and Colin Shindler analyse the year 1968, as the latest in their periodic examinations of one particularly memorable year. In football terms 1968 was the year that Manchester United followed Celtic to become the first English club to win the European Cup but even that landmark occasion was only one of many. It was also the year of the Tet Offensive, the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy, the riots in Chicago, the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia and the alliance between students and workers which brought France to a state of total paralysis. Two black American athletes held up a black gloved fist in support of Black Power during the medal ceremony at the Mexico Olympics and the anti-Vietnam war protest movement came to Grosvenor Square in London. West Bromwich Albion fans need not worry because we do not ignore their victory over Everton in the FA Cup Final or Manchester City's triumph as they were crowned League Champions. A memorable year indeed. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this deeply evocative episode of Jumpers For Goalposts, the late Jan Gorski-Mescir – known affectionately as Fydsy – chronicles Liverpool Football Club's unforgettable 1964–65 season. From the euphoric high of their first-ever FA Cup win at Wembley, immortalised by Gerry Byrne's legendary courage through injury, to the heartbreaking injustice of their European Cup semi-final against Inter Milan, this is a tale of triumph, betrayal, and resilience. Jan masterfully interweaves matchday drama with cultural context: the Beatles' meteoric rise, Liverpool's moment in the global spotlight, and the social upheavals reshaping the city. With richly researched detail and Fydsy's unmistakable storytelling voice, this episode pays homage not only to a defining moment in club history – but to the man who told it so well.

With the European Cup approaching its 50th anniversary, there were still some members of the footballing aristocracy who were aching to join the ranks of champions. Juventus were Italy's team but still lagged behind the Milanese giants when it came to continental dominance. In their way in 1983 was an ambitious German club with a sharp general manager, a wily old coach and a superbly balanced side who wanted it for themselves. Rob and Martyn tell the story of their triumph, Juve's neuroses and another enjoyable campaign as a whole.

This is Manchester United: The Lost Tapes. Stories about United's rich history, told in a way you've never heard before. Written by Wayne Barton, narrated by Patrick Barclay and produced by Studio 1878.Episode One: CantonaEric Cantona's arrival from Leeds United transformed Manchester United after a 25-year title drought, reshaping the club's fortunes and igniting the Premier League's imagination. Internal conflict at Leeds and Cantona's infamous disciplinary issues under Howard Wilkinson, culminated in a startling twist when Leeds approached United about signing Dennis Irwin. Instead, United countered with an offer for Cantona—setting in motion one of football's most pivotal transfers and redefining what it meant to be a United legend.Some episodes coming later in the season include ...Bitter RivalsIn the late 1990s and early noughties there were no more fierce rivals than Arsenal and Manchester United.

This is Manchester United's Welcome to Hell.KnightonIt is 1989 and Michael Knighton is on the Old Trafford pitch juggling a football and scoring at the Stratford End in front of a bemused crowd. Knighton had secured a £20m acquisition of Manchester United, agreeing to purchase shares from then club Chairman Martin Edwards. The investment would be put towards improving the first team and rebuilding the Stratford End.

Across the Seas but Forever Bees - An American Brentford Podcast
Hope no one ever gets 'used' to the fact that we now have European Cup champions (or Arsenal) on our schedule every other week or so. I'm never going to take that for granted.We're so lucky to have Michel Cowdrey in the studio here at ASFB to talk about his trip to see Man City and Liverpool, and his trip to see the Brentford woman. What a story he has to tell, one I hope you enjoy as much as Greville Waterman and I enjoyed in the moment.Text the pod!
Arne Slot and the returning Alisson Becker reflect on Liverpool's 1-0 victory in Girona after Mo Salah's second half penalty maintained their 100% record in the Champions League this season. In this episode we also hear from 1981 European Cup winning captain Phil Thompson and former Reds defender Martin Kelly, as well as supporters Camelia Abdennbi-Bohills, Ryan Paton and Tom Greaves.
Inviting Colin Abbott into the podcast studio is always a sure fire way of going down the most random tangents about Aston Villa history. In this podcast, it's how the European Cup got its infamous design and how Colin came to be in possession of Andy Lochhead's shirt and jacket from 1971.
