  • Episode 4 - Kyle Hall
    Apr 29 2026

    For this weeks episode we are joined by Kyle Hall who plays for Carrubbers FC in the Appin Edinburgh Churches Football League.

    Kyle's story is, in my opinion, a testament as to where sheer enthusiasm, commitment and a love for the game can take you. Indeed, as we reflect on his football journey, it is fair to say he has very much lived the dream!

    We reflect on his football journey, from the Stretford End to the park pitches of Edinburgh, to being an advocate for various causes and initiatives, his adventures have taken him far and wide.

  • Episode 2 Part 1 - Peter Lupson
    Apr 9 2026

    Peter Lupson is a football historian, writer, TV presenter and much more, authoring the seminal book on football and faith called "Thank God For Football!" an exhaustive look at the Church based origins of some of the biggest clubs in England.

    I was lucky enough to be able to speak to Peter over the phone at the back end of last year and, to be honest, would've quite happily taken up much more of his time! Hence this episode is spilt into two, with this first part covering his background, football origins and his involvement in the game as well as looking at the motivations and origins of the Church's involvement in the beautiful game.
