RIP #PatrickBarclay. His anecdote on Herbert Chapman’s desk was so good, we got it twice and I loved it both times. @boydhilton.bsky.social #ArsenalPodcast

Sad to hear this.
Was lucky enough to have Paddy on my historical football podcast.
Two things stood out: his describing how he loved a goal where the ball 'nestled' in the back of the net, and his wonderful pronunciation of 'charcuterie' in that rich Scottish burr.
RIP #patrickbarclay #football
