Duncan Ferguson: The Headbutt That Changed His Life, Being Terrified In Prison & Regretting Just Seven Scottish Caps

from The Rest Is Football · host Goalhanger

How did a headbutt at Ibrox that didn’t even merit a yellow card lead to Duncan being sent to prison? Why was getting a haircut in prison one of the most terrifying experiences of his whole time being locked up? Why did he refuse numbers attempts by different Scotland managers to play for the national team again? Gary is joined by former Everton and Newcastle striker Duncan Ferguson to discuss his turbulent younger years and how he regrets not reaching his full potential as a football player. Part 2 of this interview will be released next week. Duncan’s new autobiography - Big Dunc - is out now.
