  • A decade of 70s football: the 1970 FA Cup final
    Jul 7 2025
    Our 70s series returns and not with a mere bonus track but a supplementary book of learning that brings you everything you needed to know about each of the decade’s FA Cup finals.

    We start at Wembley, where there’s barely a blade of grass to be seen as Leeds and Chelsea join battle in a final that sets the tone for the rest of a golden decade in the FA Cup. Steven Scragg and Dave Bowler take you through a truly magnificent 120 minutes of football and ask the eternal question: what would Norman Hunter make of pickle juice?
