A podcast by Daniel Chapman, aka Moxco/Moscowhite for stupid internet reasons. I'm a writer, of the book 100 Years of Leeds United, the film Do You Want to Win?, and of loads of things at The Square Ball, where I was also editing the magazine for yonks and talking on the TSB Podcast for years.
I've been reading my writing out loud for subscribers since 2017, and this podcast feed will dip weekly into the archives to republish some of those recordings for free.
To keep up with my new week-by-week writing about our intensely daft football club, please visit Leedsista.com.
Written in 2018 — about a trip to Highbury in 1965:
Arsenal's George Eastham may have been a gentle and philosophical footballer. But he was trying to stop Leeds United winning. Nothing was more provoking than that.

Chapeau | Lee Chapman, lost in France
From October of 2017, but also my whole life — chasing Lee Chapman to France, and back again:
France wasn't the only nation bidding for Chapman's services when, at the end of the 1987/88 season, he was disillusioned with life at Sheffield Wednesday. The first foreign inquiry came from the general manager of Bayern Munich, Uli Hoeness.

1972 | Scotland vs England, May '72 | You know what to do
Going back to May 1972 — and a tackle by Norman Hunter that was, 'like a declaration of nuclear war':
Perhaps the pitch invader at the start of the second half had summed the pantomime up. Emerging from the Scotland fans in a dark suit with white pocket square, he was carrying a tartan scarf and a bunch of flowers, the first to wave to the crowd, the second to throw at Norman Hunter.
