Martin Peters speaks to FF
Before England’s horrendous World Cup exit on Sunday, the Filter got the chance to fire some questions to ‘66 cup winner Martin Peters, thanks to our friends at Coral Dugout.
It turned out to be wishful thinking, but Peters agreed that there could have been similarities between England’s slow start this year and our opening draw versus Uruguay in 1966.
He also had some interesting broader insights into why the World Cup has been so open so far, but has a point when he says that mitigating factors such as the ball are the same for all teams.
If only for a teamful of Martin Peters this time – this year’s crop could not live up to the winners of ‘66, far from it. You can ask your own questions at the Coral Dugout via Facebook and Twitter.
