Firstly, they hadn't a clue what to say, suggesting that they know fuck all about Kendall's long and respected career in the game, including being the youngest player at that time to appear in a Cup Final in 1964.
Secondly, none of the children producers or assistants even did a quick google check to feed some relevant information to them.
Rambling, bumbling and appalling radio.
F#ckw*ts, the lot of them on both sides of the glass.
For all his critics I think someone like Ray Stubbs would've covered this story in a very good way. Forde and Richardson are young "comedians" so I will cut them a bit of slack for not knowing the finite details of Howard Kendall's career.
The only problem for me if Ray Stubbs had done it is I wouldn't have heard it all as I always drop off to sleep when Stubbs is talking.
Kendall was an excellent player and great captain I remember him leading out Everton at Hillsborough as the newly crowned champions in 69/70 they had a very good team and Kendall completely excelled as player and captain.
In those days as people not working for talkSPORT will know
[they won't at TS because as mentioned in another post they think football was invented when the premier league started] teams used to run out of the tunnel separately but on this day both teams lined up outside the tunnel to applaud Everton onto the pitch as new champions of England with Howard Kendall leading them.
RIP.
