  • Episode 16: Question Time - Football Special
    Jun 27 2024

    Exactly one week before the 2024 General Election, Fair Game brings together a Question Time-style panel to discuss the future of football:

    - Clive Betts (Labour), former chair of the all-party Parliamentary Football Group, and member of the Football Supporters' Association.
    - Paul Athans (Conservative), Everton season ticket holder.
    - Dominic, Lord Addington (Liberal Democrats), previously sat on the National Plan for Sport and Recreation Committee.
    - Dr Christina Philipou, one of the country's leading experts on footballing finance and a senior lecturer at Portsmouth University.

    The new Government will probably have a closer relationship to football than any before if the Football Governance Bill is enacted and the panel takes questions from some invited guests.

    You can watch a re-run of the full live video version of the debate on YouTube.

  • Episode 15: Shaka Hislop - Show Racism The Red Card
    Jun 20 2024

    Graham Miller speaks to the former Reading, Newcastle, West Ham and Portsmouth goalkeeper Shaka Hislop.

    Shaka enjoyed a great career, playing for Kevin Keegan's 'Entertainers', the team that finished second in the Premier League two years running. He also played in memorable play-off and FA Cup finals for Reading and West Ham, and at the World Cup finals for Trinidad & Tobago. He tells us about his experience and observations of racial abuse in public, and even in the dressing room.

    Shaka is the honorary president of Show Racism The Red Card and explains how the inherent diversity in football shows how teams are stronger when they working together. He also says Alan Shearer would be a terrible left-back!
