Gordon Dalziel - I Hammered My Foot to Escape Training!
About this episode
Gordon Dalziel reflects on his unpredictable football career, sharing personal stories and insights about his experiences in the sport.
From surviving the gruelling physical torment of Rangers' pre-season under Jock Wallace to a forgettable stint at Manchester City and becoming an absolute icon at Raith Rovers, former Scotland forward Gordon Dalziel joins us to look back on his wildly unpredictable life in the game. He opens up completely about his unique relationship with football, admitting he actually hated playing Saturdays because of crippling pre-match nerves and details how an unexpected Sunday morning intervention by manager Frank Connor completely saved his career. All that plus Gordon shares hilarious locker-room memories of the legendary Davie Cooper, why he kept a hammer in his bedroom as a teenager, and his chaotic "exaggerated" stories that landed him all over the front pages.
