Three greats from the world of football are coming to Solihull next month for an evening of fascinating anecdotes and stories from the game.
The Sporting Legends tour features sports broadcaster Gary Newbon, England’s most capped player Peter Shilton OBE and fans’ favourite commentator John Motson OBE and comes to the Arts Complex on Tuesday 28 September.
Gary Newbon, who lives in Solihull, boasts a forty-year career in sports journalism and is well-known for his role as a roving reporter on ITV sport and also as a sports presenter on Central News. He currently works for Sky Sports.
Peter Shilton kept goal 125 times for his country and played in three world cups. He has a wealth of amusing stories from his career, including from when he played under legendary manger Brian Clough at Nottingham Forest.
John Motson has been perhaps the most famous voice of BBC football coverage since he started on Match of the Day in the early 1970s. Motty is many fans’ favourite commentator and has a bank full of stories from some of football’s greatest occasions.
As well as having a host of tales to listen to, there will also be an opportunity for the audience to put questions to the three legends and there will be a book signing session afterwards.
Also appearing will by Kevin Connelly, a top sports impressionist from TV and radio’s Dead Ringers.
The show starts at 7.30pm. Tickets cost £15 and can be booked by calling Box Office on 0121 704 6962.
