Proper Football with Steve Parish

Kammy and Ben return on BBC Sounds with series 3 of the Proper Football Podcast and their first guest is Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish.

He takes us inside what it’s like to be a Premier League chairman and answers some key questions about his time at the club: why was Patrick Vieira sacked? Why did he bring back Roy Hodgson and why did Wilfried Zaha choose to leave the Eagles?

He also discusses the wider game in general, from whether the European Super League could become a reality to the arrival and impact of the Saudi Pro League. Why does he think football’s governing bodies are struggling to keep up with the game and why does he believe it is vital the Premier League remains competitive and gives all clubs a chance to improve and challenge the status quo?
