When I was 15 (1996) I went into a coma for a few days and when I woke up Pedro was just stood there with my family. 😂 we ended up in Match magazine. He was just doing his rounds and ended up staying all day. He was an absolute hero in Newcastle at that time. Great guy

That's amazing, glad you pulled through pal! Beardsley should be doing punditry, he has so much experience and knowledge!

Gary complimenting Peter’s pull out game is pure class😂

I challenge you three to top that interview - what a humble, polite, proper football ‘gentleman’ - Bring him back on - Great interview

It would be weird if Micah respected him. You could see at the start that Micah was squirming a little bit. He even said "us...and even Micah" at one point. Maybe not meant in nasty any way but given his history you can forgive ppl for thinking that way.

​@@Fc.199-viii-Nit was more than one & there were multiple witness statements to back up the claims . He never showed contrition & i think if GL is willing to use social media to support kick it out etc he should do his job properly & confront even a mate otherwise it looks to be a biased interview . You can laud a mans greatness but give a full picture & address the failures . That is good journalism . Anything else is a disservice to the listener .

Amazing, and well done to Micah for suggesting the interview!

Met Peter in the Newcastle McDonalds years ago, he was with his kids and us Luton fans were on a FA Cup tour, one of the nicest blokes in football. Class act.

Peter Beardsley is a real gentleman. He undersells his own ability here. He was a terrific player and a key part of that superb Liverpool team of the late 80s. I'm a United fan but respect Peter a lot.

Old Trafford Cricket ground 2005 (I think) England vs West Indies 5 day test. I was working on the security team when my boss spotted Peter and his young lad in the queue at the burger bar. I was told to get over there, get him served and make sure he doesn't get mithered by the public. I went over and said politely, good afternoon Mr Beardsley, would you like to follow me and we'll get you and your lad served and back in your seat in no time" Peter- "err no thanks. We'll queue up like everyone else if that's OK?!?" I met Brian Lara, David Gower, Freddie Flintoff, and dozens of other high profile stars and celebs that week but that was by far my favourite memory from the 5 days. Yes I felt silly, but it was so refreshing seeing a real world class talent bringing his son up with humility and grace.

Please queue up like everyone else and we'll get to you as soon as the guests in front of you have been seen to" (Then stand back and watch him go purple with silent rage) 🤣

What a gentleman Peter is, what a pleasure listening to him, so humble. One of the best players I've seen play. Thanks lads, keep them coming!

Pedro! Greatest player in newcastle history! God given natural talent! Was an absolute privilege to watch him coaching and playing alongside my son in a training game , lovely bloke , most famous person in my contacts on my phone , sod the haters about what happened couple years ago!

Loved by Newcastle, Liverpool and everton fans great player

Kept including Micha ,class act !

For years, playing Chanpionship Manager I was always baffled by Bryan “Pop” Robson. I always thought it was Man United’s Bryan Robson, but couldn’t figure out the Pop bit. This was either pre-internet or simply before my family got internet access (this was mid-90s), so I couldn’t just search him up. Now 30 years later Peter Beardsley mentions Pop Robson and I’ve finally been able to find out who he is. Forgotten-about childhood mystery solved

Beardsley is one of those guys that some kids nowadays haven’t even heard of but was one of the best players of his time, and anyone from that era will tell you that

What a lovely bloke, I could listen to him all day. An encyclopedia on football and so humble. The best player I’ve seen at Newcastle over a period of time

'I never thought I'd get to the level I got to". That's the opposite of big-headed. What a career!

Has to be the most underrated footballer that ever lived. Legend is often overused , but not this time. #LEGEND

PB - the most underrated english player of all time. Never gets enough plaudits. My favorite footballer of all time. A genius on the ball. There was Peter Beardsley before there was Messi.

Excellent podcast. Nice to see Peter Beardsley again. Not seen him on any shows for a long time. Hope you have him as a guest again.

Best one yet.. we love Peter .. what a humble legend ⚽️

One of my favourite ever players to watch. Never supported any of the clubs Peter played for but just loved watching him play, even after retirement in Masters Football he was a pleasure to watch! A true genius!

Peter is a legend and in the top five best players England has ever produced. Great episode

Peter was unbelievably good. I remember going to a Hartlepool game with school and even as a 37 year old he was easily the best player on the pitch.

What a fantastic interview, top bloke could listen to him for hours

That was a truly awesome pod!! Peter certainly has played with some greats!! Loved him at Liverpool but what a truly class act….Thanks guys….keep doing what you do!!

What a player Peter was, great to see him looking and sounding so well.

Peter Beardsley a living legend, met him a few weeks ago on the street and was patient enough to talk with me. What a dedicated player with amazing an ability . Twenty odd years ago he and Gazza took the conversions at a fundraising rugby game for a Tongan rugby player who had a terminal brain tumour sticks in my mind. PB took one successfully with his supposedly weaker foot. He even warmed up with the rugby lads in rugby ball passing, tackling, kicking etc.

This is one of the most wholesome episodes thus far. Really .. so amazing

One of the best you've done, fantastic.

Fantastic conversation, thank you! I've just been watching the Euro 88 qualifiers. Beardsley and Gary linking up for the goal against N Ireland was great to watch. No goal line tap in there Gary!

Such a humble guy. Can tell how much respect they have for him. Lovely guy and a brilliant footballer love the podcast brilliant as always

Never heard this fella talking in long form interview/chat before, just his reputation. The similarities between Beardsley and Bobby Robson are uncanny! The way he speaks (not just accent) the way he reflects on a career of extraordinary achievements without a hint of ego. Almost humble to a fault.. what a guy!

Legend. Barnes, Beardsley and Rush made me love Liverpool when I was a kid. What an incredible memory for games and goals he has!

What a legend great to hear from him , very humble, fantastic, this episode made me subscribe even though I watched other shows , keep up the great work lads ,brilliant

I was fortunate to have seen Peter play for Vancouver when I was a young kid. Pretty sure Grobbelaar was in goal then too. I still have the match day programme somewhere 😊

Anyone from newcastle knows what this man does for his community. We love pedro great pod.

Wow. May just be the most humble ex pro I've seen or heard speak. It's sad how some guys that barely did anything good in the game can blow their own horn, yet Peter Beardsley with so much of football and life experience is so humble. Good for you sir. No wonder why you're so highly rated, not just as a footballer. (From an absolute die hard Liverpool fan)

What a player!!

Off all the podcasts you’ve done and I’ve enjoyed all of them this is the best yet. What a legend Pedro is…. How much would he be worth today??? Zillions……

Shearer and Beardsley man!! My heroes as a toon supporter! Geordie boys!!

Brilliant, can't wait for next one, love the stories of past players😎

Genuinely great episode - brilliant having Peter Beardsley on, what a player he was! More like this please :)

The man, the myth and a LEGEND. Dance Peter Dance, used to ring out from the older blokes in the corner of the Gallowgate, when he got near the box.Peter is and always will be my favourite ever player, I consider myself lucky to have seen him play many times live. In his prime, I wonder What would he be worth today. Thank you for posting this lads. I loved it.

Absolutely class. What an episode. Absolute legend

What an absolutely great episode & loved hearing from a true great that was an honour to watch while I was a kid playing football. Peter Beardsley a true great of our game

Met Peter in the lift at Hilton in New York in 2017. We spent about 10 minutes just talking about football when we got off at the same floor. My wife thought I'd been abducted 🙂. An absolute gentleman and wow what a player he was.

Took me 20 years to find an original 1986 umbro nufc shirt as Pedro was my hero as a kid..4 days after i got it i met Peter having a coffee down the Quayside..showed him pictures of his shirt..told me i should of wore it and he would of signed it..typical..lovely bloke.

Best pod yet, really enjoyed listening to Peter.

Hope Peter watched this back and has read the comments and realises how loved and appreciated he is..was class when i met him in quayside witherspoons..had a laugh..and that goal against Brighton..best ever❤

Wow 3 of the best forwards we’ve seen. I’m a Newcastle fan, and you 3 were my favourites. Thank you all for the great memories 👍🏼

Peter fair to humble for his own good 👍🏼 great podcast lads

I really enjoyed hearing Mr Beardsley’s insights, brought a smile to my face, I would’ve adored him signing for Celtic, a magical player!

What a delightful listen. Could do it all day.

It’s great to see someone so humble who’s a certified legend of the game. He’s more humble than Micah is!

A pleasure to listen to that. What a player PB was! Great episode.

The best podcast just got better,what a memory peter has,brilliant choice of guest 👏👏👏

A brilliant interview. Class act and a great footballer in his day. Just great to hear.

Top Top show lads!! Keep it coming!

Beardsley was a brilliant player, loved watching him and had the pleasure of watching him play live at WHL. A humble down to earth man. Thank you for allowing him on your podcast.

Saw Peter play for the Magpies brilliantly in a 3-1 midweek away win at Highbury in '96 making 2 for Andy Cole with Manager Keegan and assistant Terry MacDermott... Epic night ... Also alongside Barnes for Liverpool in an away win at Selhurst Park in '88 with King Kenny as Manager ... I'll never forget the mesmerising 1st touch and control they both had ... top top talent and bloke

BEARDSLEYYY!!! No way man that is awesome

Stoke fan here..We had Newcastle United in the coca cola cup in Oct 1995 at our old Victoria Ground, and Peter Beardsley was awesome that night, arguably for me one of the greatest individual performances i've seen from an away player. He won i believe a mountain bike for his MOTM performance and gifted it to a disabled young Stoke supporter after the game. Pure class

Beardsley 😊😊 What a legend 🙏❤️

What an amazing guest, could think of a million follow up questions just from what he said on here

He looks the same now as 30 years ago, he hasnt aged! Great podcast

Gold episode - please more of this. May I suggest getting John Barnes on. Or Kenny, Dalglish, Scholes. These episodes are fantastic content. Loving it.

This was amazing. What a player he was.

Humble, classy legend....

My dad would of loved this ep, Geordie through and through! Great podcast lads!

I remember watching Peter JB and Rushy back in the day and 🤯 still to this day one of the greatest attacking sides we've EVER had at LFC,great to see Pedro on the podcast YNWA Peter ❤

A Newcastle Utd footballing legend - him and sir Alan, the GOATS ⚫️⚪️⚫️⚪️

What a fantastic gentleman

My favourite Newcastle player of all time. I’m watching a compilation of his goals and assists for us and trying to work out which foot was his natural one. He was so quick with both, which I think is why he could get past people and make that space for a shot or a telling pass. Anyway, it was magic to watch back in the day.🙂 He’s always canny with the Geordie folk when he’s out and about in Newcastle as well. I’m not surprised everyone’s got a memory to share with him as he gave us so many.

Brilliant!

I love Peter Beardsley x

Ohhh GET IN! LOVE the podcast already but amazing guest lads, nice one!

Wow! What a guest! Brilliant, so respectful. Legend of the game

Brilliant.

Peter was part of my favourite ever Liverpool team with Aldo, Barnes, Houghton and Whelan.
