He also tells the guys how he was tapped up, during a match, by the Forest physio about a move to the City Ground and an unforgettable first phone call with Brian Clough. Along the way, he reveals what a Cloughie team talk was really like and what made him a managerial genius and he takes us back to Euro 96 and why he decided to take that penalty against Spain. He also recalls his days at West Ham: what the real story was behind him trying to run off a broken leg, why he loved and hated Upton Park during his career and a game which included 9 goals and an epic Di Canio tantrum. Take a listen, as Psycho takes us on an amazing journey that takes in Wealdstone, Italia 90 and even a holiday to North Korea!
