It'll Be Alright In The Nineties - S2 E11 - 'A Cold Night in Vienna' (Goalkeepers in the 90s)

We're back from our short summer break and we've finally fulfilled Stu's long-held wish and done an episode on goalkeeping in the 90s. We're delighted to welcome as a guest Steve Hale - current goalkeeping coach of Crawley Town and previous coach at numerous Football League clubs, and a handy player in his day, not to mention the owner of Steve Hale Goalkeeping School & GK gloves. In our chat with Steve we discuss our favourite 'keepers from the decade, the stand-out saves, the kits (of course) and how the discipline differs now from back then. Yes, it may sound niche, but trust us, you don't want to drop the ball on this one.

Also this week, as it was recently the 2nd birthday of the pod, Stu and Alex carry out their customary gift exchange, and announce their birthday honours.

Tune in to find out which goalie Alex regrets not speaking to in a Travelodge foyer, which keeper Stu sent a birthday card to as a youngster and which modern goalkeeping technique does Steve lament the loss of.

Also this time: Massive posters! VHS tapes! Stu between the sticks! And much, much more...
