Show Notes
Well, it's episode 10 of Long Ball Futebol, and to put it in Barney's words, it's about time we got someone on who knows what they're talking about! With that said, we're delighted to welcome Jamie Farr to the show, as the first ever LBF guest.
Jamie helps us get to the bottom of one of the most fascinating, complicated, and tragic stories of recent times in Portuguese football, the story of how Os Belenenses - one of the most historically important Portuguese football teams - ended up playing in the 6th tier of Portuguese football, with an imitator taking their place in the top flight, all via 3rd party ownership, bitter infighting, and unpaid water bills!
Sound complicated? It is! but we gave it a go anyway!
