Join Paul Watson and Tom Canning for a Berkshire Football Awards ‘debrief’.
Awards night host Paul reflects on an event he clearly loved being a part of, his favourite moments and who he’ll be keeping an eye on this season.
There’s his Darren Barnard connection (Wokingham Town fans you’ll enjoy this), kit chat, and Kitson chat, plus Greenland football and what he means when he said ‘Chris Ellis knew exactly what was coming’.
Then there’s also a proposed stay at the YMCA (Reading-branch). But you’ll have to listen along to find out more.
Berkshire Football Stories is available as part of this Substack newsletter or wherever you get your podcasts.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
