À propos de cet audio
Episode 52 of Behind the lines guest is Paul Howard, the man behind Ross O’Carroll Kelly and previously a sportswriter of great renown with the Sunday Tribune. Paul chats first about why he got out of sportswriting and then of his most memorable days within it, including the day he confronted referee Raul Nazare with Eoin Hand’s tape of the World Cup qualifier against Belgium, a game in which Nazare effectively shafted us.
We also hear how Ross O’Carroll Kelly was partly inspired by the time Paul was sued over getting a tryscorer’s name wrong in a schools rugby match, and of how he may have accidentally contributed to a defeat for Steve Collins in a European title fight in Italy.
Paul’s picks were: “Paddy Moore” an essay by Sean Ryan in the Book of Irish Goalscorers; “Johnny Owen’s last fight” by Hugh McIlvanney; “Ali and his Entourage” by Gary Smith for Sports Illustrated ; “The fatal attraction of Claveyrolat” by Paul Kimmage for the Sunday Independent.
