Football Collective podcast: Red Star FC of Paris and French football culture

Description

Dr Jonathan Ervine of Bangor University has written highly acclaimed books about French film and French comedy. He is also a stalwart member of The Football Collective and is a keen observer of football culture in France. In this podcast he talks about the origins of professional football in France and Paris, the perennial Parisian underdogs Red Star FC, the influence of Paris St Germain on the French game, Zinedine Zidane and the continuing significance of the 1998 World Cup winning side on the nation. It's a brilliant show with which to wrap up the second series of The Football Collective Podcast. Many thanks to all our loyal listeners and we will be back towards the end of the summer with Series 3. Merci bien et Allez les Bleus!
