Helen Chamberlain - Torquay United

Join Woody and Piers as they sit down with Soccer AM legend Helen Chamberlain to talk about massive seagulls at Torquay, falling for football at Anfield, and the unforgettable charm of those gritty away days at Carlisle. Away Days with Woody and Piers is a humorous journey through the world of football fandom. Join musicians, Woody (Bastille) and Piers (The Boxer Rebellion) as they sit down with celebrity football fans to explore the unique experiences of supporting your team home and away. From cross country journeys to the match to the camaraderie in the stands, we'll uncover the joy and pain that come with following your team. All the pies, pints and piss poor results. Each episode will feature a chat with a notable fan, sharing their favourite memories, worst trips, and dream away days. Whether it's a last-minute winner, an epic road trip, or a disastrous result, we'll hear the stories that make game days unforgettable. But it's not just about the game itself. We'll also discuss the practicalities of away travel, from navigating unfamiliar stadiums to sampling the local cuisine (and enduring the infamous away end toilets). It's all part of the experience, and we'll leave no stone unturned. We’ll get to the heart of what makes these fans tick. From their dream away day destination to their most cherished matchday superstitions, we'll uncover the quirks and passions that define football fandom. Listeners are invited to recommend their own experiences as fans as we’ll as suggestions for things to see, eat, drink and do when visiting their local ground. So whether you're a die-hard supporter or just curious about the culture of away days, join us for Away Days, where every match is an adventure and every journey has a story to tell.
