The Final Word Cricket PodcastAbout this episode
It's Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history. This week, Adam and Geoff get together at Stomping Ground Beer Hall to watch our TFW ale come off the canning line. After that, it's time for a tale about how a crooked priest blew his cash on one of the earliest notable first-class matches, and how the first of the first in another category arrived. What does that have to with 1979? You'll find out.
