Show Notes
Peter Gilham is about to complete his 52nd season as announcer at Brentford. It makes him the longest serving stadium announcer in the UK (to the best of our knowledge, let us know if it's YOU...email [email protected]!)
Rich Hurst from West Brom and Alan Keegan from Man Utd interview Peter about why he loves the job so much and what's special about doing it.
He's got some great stories, from drafting in celebrity stand in's when he's had to miss a game to doing the team talk HIMSELF for the games against QPR.
As our final episode of series 2, it was great to have someone on as well respected as Peter.
