Football Special, leaving 8am Saturday
Don’t worry, no Fat Les or World In Motion (even with hil-air-i-ous John Barnes rap), but this Saturday’s Big Paws will be a football special.
In honour of the end of the season, I’ve been picked the bestest football related tunes going — and if I said I’d found some from The Undertones, The Fall and Frank Sidebottom you wouldn’t be surprised — but I’ve also got a rare-er-than-a-Maradonna-apology hit single by Johan Cryuff.
Tune in to The Big Paws at 8am on Saturday on Rhubarb Radio, or you’re going home in an organised football coach.

This weeks’ show, Jon’s back
I’m back. Like some virulent rash you thought Cream E45 had soothed. After a week of work and one of play, I’ve slapped myself concious and tore tracks from my subconscious to play for you from 8am to 10am on Saturday, on Rhubarb Radio.
Oh and Jules will pick some too.
This week we’re welcoming artist and “eccentric archaeologist” Harry Palmer.

Amongst other things Harry edits The Eccentric City, which bills itself as “the World’s first dedicated eccentric newspaper” – and I’m sure it is. It contains contributions from around the World, he says it “serves to review, preview, present and promote the nuances of personal and creative pursuits, interests and fascinations”.
There’s also the Brass Section, Sweary News and Gavin’s Northern Soul experience as normal.
Thanks very much to our special guests for the last shows for holding the fort. It’ll take some proper antibiotics to get rid of me.
Don’t forget to tune in, face masks optional.
