Steve Archibald: Becoming Archigoles

IN four years at FC Barcelona, Steve Archibald became one of the most successful British exports to Spanish football, a striker known affectionately at the Camp Nou as ‘Archigoles’.

That was a fitting title for a player who struck in his first Clasico – in Madrid, on the first day of that debut season – and, later, scored the famous “goal with the ear”, though Steve will explain why that is perhaps a misnomer.

He will also lead you inside the supreme talent and unpredictable mind of Bernd Schuster, describe the world’s worst massage and explain how to avoid one of the most notorious hitmen in the history of European football.

Steve is in the process of writing his autobiography and this interview proves why that book will be worth waiting for.

Enjoy!
