Claverham_Red Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Oh was this Mark Watson's brother!? I read a mini article of this the other day in the FourFourTwo magazine and did not realise this was about Mark Watson's brother! Ordered the book and it arrived this morning, so looking forward to reading this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipdawg Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Without dredging up old threads, Mark and Paul Watson are on Soccer AM this morning talking about the latter managing Pohnpei. Quite a cool story actually, I was only vaguely familiar with it. No mention of City though and they were wearing Pohnpei shirts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Watson mentioned to the Liverpool fan about City beating them in the cup all those years back Which he said ''that is our only cup win to this day'' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed that. He's wrong though, I think we've beaten Harrogate Railway since! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claverham_Red Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Didn't realise they were on this morning but here's a link: http://www.socceram.com/media/video/0,21631,12612_7505498,00.html Whilst listening to the match this afternoon, I read the last 90 pages of the book. Certainly a lot more entertaining than the game! A thoroughly good read - the ultimate footballing story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
