The guy is pure class, amongst a sea of shite in football journalism . Not utilised nearly enough, since Football Italia.

Very cultured man....and seemed to embrace the language and the culture of the great nation of Italy...

PLEASE GOD MORE OF THIS! FORZA JIMBO! FORZA FOOTBALL ITALIA!!

To hear James Richardson say "Arrivederci" takes me back to a special time in football

James Richardson should present a football history show on C4 kinda like how Tony Robinson used to have an ancient history show back in the day

James is awesome, I loved Football Italia on Ch4

Football italia was something special

Brilliantly delivered. We're off to Napoli for the Scudetto tour in June

He does it on BT Sport on Sunday evenings with James Horncastle.

I've entered the chat ✊⚽

I recently saw that game mentioned in this video, ARGENTINA were the better side and deserved to win which they did on penalties, of course the NAPLES factor helped them because if that game was played in ROME the crowd would've been a bigger factor but in NAPLES although ITALY lost the crowd didn't feel the same pain because it was to DIEGO'SARGENTINA. Nevertheless despite that game I'm sure that NAPLES people have forgiven DIEGO by now 34 years on. DIEGO will always be a god in NAPES.

Shows the power of maradona, italy destroyed his career in italy the next season after maradona knocked italy out of the world cup in 1990. That shows what italy as a nation thought of him, that maradona was so big he was bigger then italian football, which was saying he was beyond human in effect. After world cup, italians went after maradona, and then in that season he got banned, and his football career was ruined. All that just for maradona beating italy in that semi. Tell us what other player would italy ruin, just for beating there national team. Remember maradona was a light for seria a, he brought money and players to seria a, but they ruined him just for beating italy in 1990 semi. The season after that world cup, for napoli, italy made sure he was ruined as a player, and got banned as we all know. If he had not beaten italy in that semi, he would never of been destroyed like that, and you all know it, showing how big a player he was, and they wanted him gone.

He was a larger than life character

Channel 4 should resurrect football italia as a 1 hour highlights show for late nights. Low cost way of satisfying the nostagic itch. But with the abundance of sports channels i guess there's no need for it snyway.

AC Jimbo is the GOAT 🐐

What is it with tv presenters and their reluctance to obey the law and common sense and wear a seat belt
