Loved watching grobbelaar, what a character he is & what a brilliant keeper.
Bruce was in my local in Dublin doing a promotion. He was standing at bar after the gig when a lad lit a banger and tossed it beside him. It went off the bang was like a bomb going off. He jumped about six foot in the air. He went ballistic wanting to fight paddy in the car park. And paddy is still bard from the pub 💯🍀🏴☠️
Great interview lads, Bruce is a legend and wow some great stories!
The "spaghetti legs" moment is still one of the greatest moments in football, as kids we used to do it when a pen was awarded in our kickabouts! Souness' stories about that final are amazing, it's on YT somewhere, how Liverpool didn't prepare for the match in Rome, went out drinking! Journalists couldn't believe it. Different days, different days.
By far and away my favourite one this one.
Brucie...bookies nightmare .....they never knew week in week out if he'd done a fix up ... Legend for fucking up the odds
This could definitely be a two parter, Bruce is a great character!
Great interview, Thankyou
That was a wonderful listen. All the best to Bruce & the lad's :)
Peter Charnley cheers peter. Bruce was a top fella
Best interview ever.
This is a great interview with a genuine character & hero of the game, great player!! Very easy to criticize someone who is different!
What a great.interview, well done to all
The Legend Mr Bruce Grobbelaar . Great to hear a real person talk. WEAK intervirwers as usual in England , Ireland , Bruce you Legend . A all time Great 😃
WHAT A LEGEND
loved watching him play!
He was a great goalkeeper
What a legend and a really nice bloke.
Remember being a ball boy as a kid at a reserve match at Elland Road against Liverpool. Dropped over the edge into the tunnel at the final whistle to be face to face (or knee) with Bruce... resplendent in full black leather trench coat and fidora hat. I was in awe but he autographed my season ticket. (79/80)
Bloody Amazing this One 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Brilliant watch / listen, love his understated style 👍🏻 looks like the witch doctor curse was effective 🤣
you have to sort the sound out... its too quiet
Probably the most agile keeper that's ever been, well certainly of that generation. Unbelievable character but also a fantastic goal keeper. His save in the 86 cup final when he tipped it over the bar was incredible.
Have you ever heard of Peter shilton? Or ray clemence?
@@tezzatibbz2278Or John Burridge.
Brilliant!
This mans life could be a movie.
Bruce. I would buy you a beer anytime. Your a gentleman and inspiration.
Fantastic
I’m a EVERTON fan but that was the best one I’ve watched yet ... he’s nuts int he .. the curse is over lol
Brilliant! Jh
this was excellent. Keith Gillespie would be interesting, David Batty would be a gold
What a legend
Bruce is quality
What a life, what a career,what a man
Spaghetti legs was a great keeper with unbelievable agility although he always had a howler in him.
These interviews are timeless for a certain generation
This episode is so underrated
I used to be skipper for both Glasshoughton Welfare and Ponte Colls......wish I was still there when he played.
Top man 👍
That idea of putting the medals in a box is a great idea, all clubs should do that and if you feel you deserve a medal, you take it.
I remember my very first football match (I remember it very faintly mind you). It was about 1985. Barnsley v Liverpool at Oakwell.
I couldn't get over how big Bruce Grobbelaar was. I thought he was the biggest man in the world.
I don't remember the score. I remember my mum and dad having what seemed like a pretty big argument during the match. Years later my mother told me that she had said Liverpool were choreographing their movements with each other. My dad was saying they were essentially just busking it but that they were playing at a much higher level so it LOOKED like choreography. I think he took exception to use of the word "choreography" as it made it sound like Liverpool were doing a bit of namby-pamby dancing or something.
I have since heard that the only instructions Shankly or Paisley, one of them two, used to shout from the dugout was "more rotation!" or words to that effect, meaning players without the ball would move in synchronised rotating triangles or squares and with enough time traiNing with the team and enough ability, the man on the ball would know even without looking, where and when to play the ball as a result.
I'd say my mother won that argument.
interesting.
Great keeper.
Legend Bruce lad
Love the where bothered by the scottish mafia response.
Mate iv just been to war why whould i be bothered about them.
Puts things in prospective reaily
Sagetti legs Genius!
Amazing, when you see what he lived with, amazing, that so much happened in his life.
The cheating in football back when he played is nothing compared to todays football, with no ethics at all.
Some life that 😊
Where are the podcast versions of these shows?
The link is in the description mate.

I once got served a carvery by Bruce Grobelaar. True story 😄 Got the picture to prove it
What was he doing there.
Shamir Patel serving carvery
Aaron why
@@shamirpatel3569 Hahaha. His mate was head chef at a resteraunt up the road. One day we went there and Bruce ended up serving us up with a carvery. Cut the meat and everything 🤣
Paying off a debt was he
What a boy
500 quid at a tenner a pop is 50 different scores. Lucky Bruce didn’t get 10-9. Top Podcast by the way.
he didn't even clap the Crewe Alex fans in the cup when they chanted his name. Nice bloke . Probably not and for the record Bruce; They played (past tense) baseball at 'The Baseball ground' ergo catchers corner.
Well he's not exactly a savoury character
Love Brucie
Looks like a Liver bird on his T-shirt, but looks like Man U badge? Haha
I always had a mistake in me ...yes we remember the court case 🤣
i wish i had bruces demenor
Did he fix games?
Rhodesians never die ⚡
Couldnt hold a candle to neville southall.........different levels
Darth Scouser He won a few more trophies than Southall though, As good as Southall was.
Southall always said that BG was the best keeper in the world at the time.
@@shanekelley7682 - doesnt mean a thing.......we were winning plenty of trophies in the 80s so Big Nev won his fair share.......the only reason grobellaar won what he did was because he was part of successful teams over a long period......individually, southall was levels above grobellaar.....BG was capable of spectacular saves but was a complete liability most of the time
@@greglyons2526 Well he wasn't going to say it was Neville Southall was he
peter heaton I don't mean to be rude but anybody who believes that this clown is even close to being as good as Big Nev knows very little about goalkeeping. I played over 30 yrs to a decent standard in goal & I don't support Liverpool or Everton so no rose tinted glasses here.
Look Bruce, about your comment on "Italians marching backwards". Rhodesia now is called Zimbabwe. Italia is still called Italia. You were an excellent goalkeeper.
Exactly, racist creep that grobelaar is
@@eoghankenny442 nah he is not racist but I am tired of hearing that bullshit that show sheer ignorance. I would like to tell him to say that to the family of the Italians who died fighting in WWII.
Just catching up with all the interviews. Love this one. Sure there are plenty more stories to fill a 2nd episode. Keep up all the good work 👍
Brian Clough had Italians right beautiful women food places and cheating
Fucking great. My Dad went to school with Bruce
Brilliant goalkeeper in the 80s but Neville Southall was the best in that era for many years. He used to save shot after shot he had no right to get near
Sakes Mad Bruce the hitman before he was a Goalie
Should of asked him how much he took for letting goals in
No where near Neville southalls level
Behave
No mention of the racist incident with teammate Howard Gayle was odd but other than that interesting podcast
Why does he have a badge that looks like a united cress with a liverpool one inside
The original crest was Liverpools from before the war. It was United that copied it from Liverpool,not the other way round
A house “boy”?
Yes?
"Italians march backwards not forwards" 😆😆
fuck him, he and his mates lost the words. He left Rhodesia went back to Zimbabwe, when he was allowed....
Truly a Walter Mitty character whose tales got taller as the white spirit went down. Famous for it.
1:07:47did Bruce just admit to rigging a match 😝🙈
Lol more or less said so 😂😂
Hope the guy who collected the ears did not pin them to his collection of snakes [who don't have ears].
Brucie should be a true Anfield legend for all hes won! Cant remember the evidence around his tapping up case but most reds I knew thought he wa guilty! His stories here of "ducking the punch and coming up with a head but to break his nose"1 sounds like BS. He makes himself out to be the hardest guy in Liverpool! More BS. Cant believe Steve McMahon wouldn't have wasted him or at least got him back. I appreciate he saw shit in Rhodesia and fr what he gave to Liverpool. Shame he ruined it
he is a legend. Mcmahon wasnt a tough guy, just an angry one.
Great keeper for us back in the day but so full of sh*t...

Guys I can’t be bothered watching 1 hour 19 mins of this cheat, what part do they talk about the match fixing ?
Grobbelaar is a Liar, a Cheat and a Thief. I’m a Liverpool Fan and I’ll never forgive him for what he did 😡
A whitewash of Heysel. The people who stood trial in Belgium for their role in the tragedy were clearly Liverpool fans. A more reasonable claim is that the presence of Italians in the Liverpool end was a provocation following the violence against Liverpool fans in Rome a year earlier. This was a provocation to which the Liverpool fans unfortunately reacted.
The reason why all English clubs (but strangely not the national team) were banned was because the violence at Heysel followed a chain of violent events perpetrated by English fans over the preceding 15 years. Violence within football grounds was also a weekly occurrence at the time in England especially when a bigger club or one with a more violent fan base visited a smaller club or one with less violent supporters. A group of away supporters would go into the home end (entry to terraces was gained by paying cash in those days) and try to 'take' it by making the home supporters disperse from the middle of their own end. The Heysel tragedy could easily have happened in an English ground, had any been as decrepit as Heysel was in 1985.
Correct I dont know a single fellow red who thinks it wasn't our fans reacting to the provocation and a very sad result to something that happened up and down the country and continent every week with rival fans fighting. This infiltrating a gang and hearing that three gangs in London did it so Liverpool would be banned is a crock of shit. It's worse than that, it's dangerous, I know as a kid I would have believed an ex-pro spouting such nonsense. He is like a mate who just comes out with bullshit all the time and you wonder why you still hang around with him but he's quite funny and you've known him a long time so you put up with it. He's Jay from the Inbetweeners.
Gutted I'm too young to have seen this guy play
