Brilliant interview as usual, Baz. Such a good format these & you let the interviewee go in a way that’s rare these days. I was at Tony’s debut at QPR, a memorable one! Great to hear from Grantona, refreshingly modest & matter of fact! He obviously hasn’t seen Craig Pawson, Atwell & Oliver though if he thinks Indian refs are bad!

Much appreciated that comment Andrew 😊 Yes Granty was very underrated and he's very calm about the whole thing. Great stories and hopefully he is successful in his new venture too 👍

4 lads from Liverpool were working on the train tracks down here in Lichfield, Staffs and renting a house here about 10-15yrs ago. Two of them were best pals with "Granty" and how he helped his mates out financially when they were stuck for a few quid but would only help you out again if you payed the first lot back. They had nothing but praise for him!

Great listening - watched TG loads of times for Everton reserves and there were couple of other lads at the time Peter Holcroft & Alex Smith who I felt had a great understanding of how each other played (like Baines & Pienaar) but it just never happened for them and I think they went to Swindon before dropping out of the game afaia.
