    FBC Classics: Jimmy Floyd on Soft Porn & Chips (ft. Maisie Adam)
    2025/10/20

    With Maisie Adam currently on Taskmaster and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink currently tangoing his way across the Strictly dancefloor, what better time to revisit our episode featuring both of them? Back in 2021, Maisie brought us her Leeds hero's autobiography, only to find a manifesto on soft porn and chips with vinegar, and discovered the perils of opening Jimmy's book on the set of A League Of Their Own.


    This clip is taken from Series 4 Episode 6 'Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink's 'Jimmy' (ft. Maisie Adam)', which you can listen to in full by scrolling back through the Football Book Club podcast feed. See you next Monday for FBC vs Career We Go!

    Football Book Club returns, live from London's Cheerful Earful podcast festival! And we've tracked down Alan Shearer's long-lost, secret 1998 audiocassettes to FINALLY bring Alan's story to the masses. Including how Bryan Adams helped secure Alan's move back to Newcastle, his war of words with Michael Owen, and Alan's 'tragically magnificent arse' he owes his whole career to.
