In the first podcast Football Ruined My Life has done since the untimely demise of Patrick Barclay, Jon Holmes and Colin Shindler are joined by the Daily Telegraph sports columnist Jim White.  Forced to restart the episode because the Producer had failed to press the record button first time round, eventually the panel turn to the “the poisoned chalice”. They consider the story from the sad night of defeat on penalties in Turin to the singularly appropriate day in 2000 when Kevin Keegan resigned the job in the toilets at Wembley Stadium after a 1-0 home defeat by Germany.  In between came the nadir of Graham Taylor and the oh-so-nearly efforts of Terry Venables before Glenn Hoddle was defeated by the players' decision to embrace his original tactics but reject his rather strange insistence on utilising the assistance of a faith healer called Eileen Drewery.

It's commonly known as “the poisoned chalice”.  The only England manager to win the World Cup was Alf Ramsey in 1966.  Nobody has done it since though a few have come close. In this, his last ever podcast, Patrick Barclay, along with Jon Holmes and Colin Shindler, analyses why that has been the case.  Paddy and co. take the story from 1974 when Sir Alf was dismissed by the FA to the end of Bobby Robson's unlucky regime after the defeat by Germany at Italia 90.  Gazza cried, we all cried but we comforted ourselves with the thought that the next manager to try was Robson's immediate replacement, Graham Taylor.  It's unlikely that Paddy's wit and erudition was ever better displayed than in this, his last but triumphant farewell.

In celebration of our fifth anniversary, we're re-releasing one of our favorite episodes from the past year. Anger isn't the enemy—it's a warning light, signaling that something deeper needs attention. When we validate and express it constructively, we unlock empathy, self-awareness, and stronger relationships. In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor speaks with Bronwyn Schweigerdt, LMFT—a licensed psychotherapist, public speaker, author, and host of “Angry at the Right Things”. Bronwyn is known for her evocative approach to therapy, helping clients externalize and process deeply buried emotions like anger and rage. She believes these intense feelings, when acknowledged and expressed, are key to overcoming mental health struggles such as depression, anxiety, and psychosis. By fostering a healthy relationship with anger, Bronwyn empowers individuals to set boundaries, build self-trust, and break free from dysfunctional patterns. Her work is rooted in the belief that sharing trauma with a compassionate listener transforms isolation into healing. We're thrilled to have her here to explore healthy anger management, the power of processing intense emotions, and practical strategies for creating a healthier relationship with anger.   Subscribe to “Angry At The Right Things” Podcast hosted by Bronwyn Schweigerdt at: https://angryattherightthings.podbean.com For more information about Bronwyn and her private practice, please visit: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/bronwyn-schweigerdt-lompoc-ca/1080547 Connect with Bronwyn on Linkedin at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bronwyn-schweigerdt-3124857 Connect with Bronwyn on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/bronwyn.schweigerdt/

Instead of reacting with frustration, we explore how to take control of what we can—starting with how we listen, understand, and make a meaningful impact in our local communities. Join us as we shift from division to agency and focus on creating positive change, one conversation at a time.
