Welcome to When Football Began Again, the podcast that takes a nostaligic look at the Premier League era.

In this pilot episode, host Carl Jones is joined by fellow comedians Alex Hylton, James Cook and Marvyn Dickinson to take an in-depth look at the 1992/93 episode of Premier League Years and much more besides. We cover Sky Sports' famous Whole New Ball Game ad campaign, decide who scored the Goal of the Season and recall Manchester United's first league championship win since 1968, the title challenges of Norwich City and Aston Villa and the legacy of Brian Clough.

We also decide who the greatest Albanian to play in the Premier League is (the choice is admittedly limited) and enjoy a surprisingly tense first game of Play Your Apps Right - the rules are simple and you can play along at home but you'll have to listen in to find out more!

Host Carl Jones is joined by actor, comedian and Manchester United fan Marv Dickinson and comedia, Aston Villa fan and host of World Cup of World Cups and World Cup of Euros , James Cook to relive the 1998/99 season. There's the return of David Beckham from France '98 as public enemy number one, Paulo Di Canio pushing over a referee, John Hartson volleying a teammate in the head. Roy Evans budges up for Gerard Houllier in the Liverpool dugout, Big Ron takes his place in the wrong one and Brian Kidd waves goodbye to his seat on the bench at the beginnings of one of the greatest seasons recorded in club football to take Blackburn down instead. Dwight Yorke narrowly avoids being shot by John Gregory, David Unsworth avoids him altogether and Duncan Ferguson becomes the first (and last) player to represent Newcastle United with an Everton crest tattooed on them. There's also some great trivia, hilarious anecodotes and a slightly sombre greatest ever Premier League Cameroonian for reasons that will become apparent. Enjoyed the show?

Today's guest is author Rob Carless who shares his memorable matches from 1998/99. We also cover his new book, Three Games In May , breaking down Manchester United's historic Treble - none of which were won untul those final three games. In between remembering Fergie's men's historic achievement, Rob dips into some of his favourite moment from the season, including the inspirational captaincy of Roy Keane, Ryan Giggs scoring a solo goal for the ages, Jaap Stam's difficult initial adaption to life in the Premier League and David Beckham finding redemption post-France '98. Rob also remembers some of the memorable moments for his own beloved Aston Villa, including losing Dwight Yorke to Old Trafford, topping the league at the halfway point of the season and an unfortunate festive-themed air display where we update on how a parachuting Santa Claus recovered from a rather dramatic accident. We'll also reveal the winner of the Premier League's greatest ever Burundian based on your votes from last week's show. Enjoyed the show?

Host Carl Jones is joined by comedian and host of Comedians Talking About Football , Sam Michael and Royals superfan and terrace cult hero Johnny Hunt to continue the count up the all-time Premier League table as we reach 43rd place and Reading FC. In this second episode, we cover Reading's second spell in the top flight, the near miss of a return in 2017 and the intervening years that have seen the club fall to the brink of extinction thanks to the disastrous ownership of Dai Yongge. There's an emotional call to arms from both guests and a plea to the wider footballing world not to take for granted that it might never happen to them. We also remember Eamonn Dolan, a key factor in The Royals' success over the years, as well as looking back on some of the wildest results of any club in recent seasons, with a 7-5, 7-4 and 6-4 defeat to chew over. We'll also put a chaotic Premier League Reading XI into the archives, it's more slim pickings for the Premier League's greatest Burundian of all-time and we end on a Royals-themed round of Play Your Apps Right that gets predictably heated.

Rewriting football history with author James Green 57:48

Today's guest is author and comedian James Green choosing the desert island matches with a difference that he'd rewrite the history of. James' new book, What If Southgate Got Subbed?, is a great mix of fiction and non-fiction as James relives some of football's most memorable moments of the modern era and then reimagines them with a new ending - including what might have happened had Terry Venables introduced fresh legs for his Aston Villa defender back at Euro '96. Among the other games we relive, find out what might have happened had Eric Cantona had a quiet chat with the abusive fan in the stand, or if Steven Gerrard hadn't slipped at the crucial moment. We explore two unforgettable Champions League final comebacks, spoil Jamie Vardy's party and teach Paul Alcock karate among other famous moments where things could have been quite different... There's also a welcome return for Premier League of Nations as the greatest Chilean goes into our Hall of Fame - but will it be Bravo, Beausejour, Medel or Sanchez?

Host Carl Jones is joined by former Nottingham Forest striker Jason Lee to discuss his career in football and his spell in the Premier League. From working his way up the league ladder to playing in Europe for Nottingham Forest by his early-20s, things took a turn for the sinister when Baddiel and Skinner's infamous Fantasy Football sketch made him one of the most recognisable faces in the Premier League for a short period in the 90s. From there, we cover the indirect impact of that sketch on his career, his most memorable moments including winning promotion and moving north of the border, and discuss his current role working in EDI and why it's so important for the modern game to keep up with the times.

In this second part of the interview (and the final episode of this series!), host Carl Jones is joined once again by the voice of ITV football for almost two decades - a job in which he called some of the biggest moments in domestic, European and international football - the incomparable Clive Tyldesley. Picking up where we left off last week, we chat about international tournaments and which host nation proved to be his most memorable trip away. We discuss how football and society are intertwined, for better and for worse, and we cover what it's like to be in the commentary box describing a dismal England exit from a major tournament - especially when it means you've got to call the position of your great friend, the England manager Roy Hodgson, untenable. Clive shares the only time he ever asked a manager if he'd still be in a job by the following weekend, and why he never asked that question again. And he gives insight into what being the voice of the FIFA video games series was like and how it led to the most unlikely moments of being recognised by his distinctive voice. All of that and much more in a superb end to season two of When Football Began Again.

Host Carl Jones is joined by the voice of ITV football for almost two decades - a job in which he called some of the biggest moments in domestic, European and international football - the incomparable Clive Tyldesley. From his beginnings as a journalist and later regional commentator for Granada Television in the 1980s to becoming the late, great Brian Moore's successor just in time for one of the most unforgettable final few minutes of the 1999 Champions League final and beyond, this first part is a whistle stop journey through Clive's early life and career. There's tales of reporting on matches involving some of the greatest names in the history of the game, including Clough, Fergie and Bill Shankly. He gives his views on what makes good commentary and what doesn't, talks about his favourite broadcasters and reveals what it was like to be a commentator at the BBC during the height of Motty vs Davies in the commentary box. I also ask Clive what goes through his head in the moments football history is happening before his very eyes, which includes a deep dive into those incredible moments back in 1999 and his commentary that will forever be indelibly linked to that unforgettable comeback. We also reveal who you voted as the Premier League era's greatest ever Bulgarian player. It was a closer run thing than you'd imagine...

Host Carl Jones is joined by comedians and Oldham Athletic fans Stevie Gray and Che Burnley to continue the count up the all-time Premier League table as we reach 44th place. We take a nostalgic trip back to the 90s where schoolboys Che and Stevie were enjoying watching their local team go toe-to-toe with local rivals Manchester United and claiming bragging rights over Manchester City. There were trips to Wembley to enjoy, the goalscoring exploits of a mulleted Ian Marshall to marvel at and a reputation for being everyone's second team, such was their underdog charm. We cover Oldham's potted history, take a look at where things have gone since, and deep dive into the two Premier League seasons that they're still remembered for three decades on. Alongside all of that, Che reimagines how the future could have been for Oldham had their promising side of the 1910s not been decimated by World War I and Stevie tells us about his time as a Junior Latic and a VERY memorable encounter with the Aston Villa changing room. We'll also put a Premier League Oldham Athletic XI into the archives, choosing between the slim pickings for the Premier League's greatest Bolivian of all-time and ending on an Oldham-heavy round of Play Your Apps Right Enjoyed the show?

Chatting with Aston Villa hero Mark Draper 48:57

48:57

Host Carl Jones is joined by former Notts County, Leicester City, Aston Villa, Southampton, Rayo Vallecano and England midfielder Mark Draper to deep dive into a career that featured Wembley wins, England call-ups and playing against some of the most iconic stars of his generation. We cover breaking through at Notts County, joining Brian Little in the Premier League and following him to Villa Park where he played his part in an unforgettable debut. There's also England regrets, falling out of favour with John Gregory and the moves to the South Coast and Spain before launching his own coaching academies in retirement. He also reveals what a Chairman said to him after feeling he might have paid over the odds for the promising young midfielder at a tribunal and what Matt Le Tissier said to him after a ten minute cameo for England. All that and much more, plus we reveal who you voted as the Premier League era's greatest ever Brazilian player. Spoiler: it's not Kleberson. Enjoyed the show?

Host Carl Jones is joined by comedian and Cardiff City superfan Dai Rhys Towler to continue the count up the all-time Premier League table as we reach 45th place. Dai regales us with some incredible trivia on the history of Cardiff City, including how they helped coin the phrase 'back to square one' - an irony not lost on this particular dry-humoured Bluebird - before recalling the dominant City side that won the Championship in 2013 in unfamiliar colours. We also cover the reigns of Neil Warnock (big fan), Malky Mackay (big fan until huge caveat) and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (categorically not a fan) as we relive both seasons in the Premier League, find out where things went wrong for them for both to end in relegation and what Cardiff must do if they ever want to return. We'll also put a Premier League Cardiff City XI into the archives, with two players in particular proving to be poignant picks, as well as choosing the Premier League's greatest Brazilian Goalkeeper/Defender of all-time with fellow comedian and friend of the show Fran Jenking who joins us for the final ten minutes.

Host Carl Jones is joined by Tom Flight, author of 'Yer Joking Aren't Ya? The Story of Middlesbrough FC's 1996/97 Season' and huge Boro fan to find out which matches he'd take with him to a desert island. With the caveat that he can only take games from 1996/97, it's a bittersweet trip back down memory lane for even the most balanced Boro fan as the Teessiders record one of the most remarkable seasons in English top flight history. We break down the summer transfer flurry of superstars, the thrilling start to the season, the infamous postponed game with Blackburn in December that would reverberate through the remainder of their season and the multiple trips to Wembley in two domestic cup campaigns that would ultimately end in tears. In between chatting Boro, we find out which cult defender Tom would choose to attempt to rescue him from the island, which matches not involving Middlesbrough remain lodged in his memory and who the best Brazilian attacker in the Premier League era is in his opinion - see if you can guess...

Host Carl Jones is joined by former Aston Villa, Middlesbrough, Bolton and Watford defender Neil Cox to deep dive into a career with more than 600 professional appearances. From being integrated into the first team squad aged just 13 at his hometown club Scunthorpe United to a unique transfer fee to Villa Park and the top flight in 1991, Neil's career path is a fascinating one. Part of the Riverside Revolution, as Middlesbrough signed off at Ayresome Park by winning the First Division title, he was a key member of the Boro side that reached both cup finals and suffered relegation thanks to a points deduction in 1996/97. We discuss that and how his bust-up with Fabrizio Ravanelli led to him meeting Pele. We also chat about what it's like to play in a final day relegation decider, his vastly different relationships with Graham Taylor and Gianluca Vialli at Watford, and his own move into the dugout as Assistant at AFC Wimbledon - what were those first meetings with MK Dons like?

Host Carl Jones is joined by founder of the JE3 Foundation Charlie Edinburgh to discuss the work of his incredible charity, the legacy of his dad Justin and the matches he'd take with him to a deserted island. It's an emotional chat in places and an inspirational one in others as Charlie shares how he and his family have coped with the sudden and tragic passing of former Spurs and Leyton Orient legend Justin Edinburgh following a cardiac arrest in 2019. He was just 49. Charlie explains why the Foundation is campaigning to get Justin's Law recognised, the importance of having access to defibrillators in public places where sport takes place and the simple steps everyone can take to improve the chances of surviving an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest beyond the current 1 in 10 - a statistic that is proven to increased with greater awareness, education and access to defibs. For his match choices, the memory of his dad is a thread throughout with a shared love of Spurs and an intense pride of his achievements as a manager with Newport and Leyton Orient featuring.

Host Carl Jones is joined by comedian Aston Villa fan and host of @TheAthletic 's The Football Manager Show, Tony Jameson, and comedian and Manchester United fan Phil Walker. In an action-packed show, we discuss the memorable moments, unforgettable matches and iconic meltdowns that made the 1995/96 season one of the Premier League era's all-time greats. We cover the seemingly unassailable lead of Kevin Keegan's thrilling Newcastle United side - and the slow but steady disintegration of that cushion. We remember a famous night at Anfield where an era-defining 90 minutes turned the title race on its head and would eventually lead to a post-match interview that would be parodied to this day. And we look at the influential imports that arrived this season that would become legends with Bergkamp, Juninho, Ginola and Kinkladze all arriving on English shores to light up the Premier League. One player has two entries into our Goal of the Season but still doesn't win and there's a tricky round of #PlayYourAppsRight to get involved with at home to finish.

Host Carl Jones is joined by two comedians and passionate Terriers, Howard Walker and Graeme Rayner, to continue the countdown of the all-time Premier League table with Huddersfield Town in 47th place. From winning a league title on goal average (all explained within) to the near misses scattered throughout their history, we jump to David Wagner's reign and a triumphant return to the top flight and survival against the odds before a "difficult" second season and a reluctant change in the dugout saw Town return to the Championship after two seasons. There's also Martin from Wakefield-gate, quite a few players with names that are hard to pronounce, one player whose name isn't particularly hard to pronounce but Carl gets it wrong anyway and old wounds are reopened as we try and decipher why selling Marcus Stewart to promotion rivals Ipswich Town a quarter century ago seemed like a good idea at the time. We'll also put a Premier League Huddersfield XI into the archives, there's another very impressive Play Your Apps Right performance from one of our guests and the lads share their opinions on who is the Premier League's greatest Bosnian player of all-time.
