Season 1986/87 Episode 8 - The Arrival of George Graham

We round off season 1986/87 with one of the turning points in late 20th century English football as a favourite son returned to Highbury to restore a faded country house. Jon Spurling joins Martyn to discuss the original choices before Graham, how he set about reconnecting Arsenal with its past, some signs of what was in store in the future and that first silverware on the board even when Ian Rush had scored the opening goal...
