Very interesting and warming interview with him on CWR just now, will be available afterwards if you miss it. Speaks about how his move to CCFC came about, wanting to put family first ahead of wages and so on. Decent bloke.

Had an England call up not long before then I think? Could've been a cracking player

What he says about the Summerbee tackle and seeing him 18 years after is remarkable. Really magnanimous and positive outlook on a horrendous moment

Remember that goal against Everton in I think 98, what a cracker that was.

We were on our way up the match and popped in the Rose and Crown for a few beforehand and ended up staying there rather than going the game.

The only other time we did that was Macclesfield in the cup.

Needless to say after missing them two we never did it again.

He’s on Twitter too. Seems like a really genuine guy. I remember watching the game against Everton as a kid on sky, the people I was with said “it’s only Frog nothing is gonna happen” and then he smacks it in the top corner.

He comes across as a really decent bloke, he did one of the podcasts a while back as well. Speaks fondly of City even though in essence he only spent just over a year here playing

Quickly became a favourite. Loved him. Remember that Sunderland match. We’d gone 3 up inside 20 minutes I think. Could see Summerbee coming a mile off from over the other side of the pitch - nothing else in his mind but to do damage to Froggatt. Scum move.

I had it in my head that Summerbee got a red for it, but apparently not. Alcock the ref, so not surprising... quite possibly the worst ref I’ve ever seen, along with Steve Lodge.

Gilbert isn’t too bad to be fair to him. It’s the other 2 that are really just there along for the ride.
Other guy didn’t know where Jodi Jones was playing before we signed him, then when Richard Shaw was on they were talking about when we beat Chelsea where they had to wear our away (blue and red squares/chequered) kit when we beat them, resulting in them throwing the kit on the ground at the end of the game.
“Yes I was at that game Richard and remember it very well-the reason I remember it well was because Chelsea had to wear our purple and yellow away kit”
For goodness sake-do a bit of research, a minimum requirement for any sort of broadcaster/journalist I would have thought.
