WC2022 - England Vs Iran

And so the World Cup begins, neither with a bang nor a whimper but - on Footy on the Med, anyway - with a leprechaun. Yes, before John and Alex can settle down to enjoy England v Iran in Bar Rino in the heart of Menton they are met by an unaccountable blast of Irishness. And why not? The host nation might not be the most inclusive but Footy on the Med is. Listen out for Alex's next book, A Season in the Shed, and John's promise to give a five-star Amazon review for his current one, A Season on the Med. There are quirky facts galore and roars of approval, especially from Young Trafford, as England romp home 6-2 winners. Many thanks to Emanuela and Marco, who let the lads record in Bar Rino, and no thanks to the jellyfish, who stung Alex during his half-time swim.
