Over the years we have had some big names on the podcast, but it is safe to say that Sir Elton John could be up there with the biggest and best one yet (move over Prince William)
Crouchy, Chris and Starkie leave the pub this week and take a trip down to Chris’ stomping ground - Watford. Here they met up with global icon and former majority shareholder of Watford F.C to get an insight on one man’s love of football and his old pal Graham Taylor.
In his new book, ‘Watford Forever’ Sir Elton details Watford’s meteoric rise up the football pyramid to some of their most memorable moments and missed opportunities - and he is as every bit as entertaining as you would expect him to be.
So sit back, dig out your best pair of shades and enjoy this week’s That Peter Crouch Podcast.
