Manage episode 419164679 series 3560205
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.
