Happy Halloween! For my third Special episode, I am joined by ex-Pools player Tommy Miller to delve into his career at the club - from his beginnings in the youth team, Tommy established himself as the first name on the team sheet at the beginning of the Chris Turner era in Division Three. He speaks about his rise through the ranks and his personal milestones, such as his first goal, his only hat-trick for the club, and the heartbreak of two successive play-off defeats in the early 2000s. A word too on his return to the club in 2014, and his ambitions to return to management in the future.

Many thanks to the man himself for his time, and his honesty in looking back at his time at the Vic!

In this special episode, I am joined by Hartlepool United legend Brian Honour for an in-depth look at his footballing career - from Aston Villa to Pools, with spells at Darlington and Peterlee Newtown in between. He speaks on his relationship with Cyril Knowles, the transfer saga in 1987, and his recovery from a knee injury shortly before the promotion-winning season of 1990-91.

There's also a few anecdotes on footballing figures such as Paul Gascoigne, Stanley Matthews, and Kevin Keegan, with other stories too!
