Episode 2087: Final Fever, Anthem Discourse, For Whom The Bell Tolls
Not long to go now. Today we savour the big-match buildup here, in England and further afield. Liveline got stuck into the ancient question of What We As Irish People Should Do, there is Anthem Discourse, a look at the various battles England players have been through to reach this point, and double-edged praise from Giorgio Chiellini.
