À propos de ce contenu audio

In this episode, I go back to the school fields of Thame — where Crossbar Kings ruled the afternoons — and trace the unlikely, chaotic, and very British story of how the crossbar became one of football’s most important inventions. From medieval mayhem to Sheffield ingenuity, from broken beams to title‑deciding bounces, this is the tale of the goalframe that shaped the game, saved my Under‑9s league title, and still makes every fan hold their breath when the ball smacks against it.
