OBV Exclusive: The real Garth Crooks

in

OBV Exclusive. In a what is a fascinating interview with Black footballing icon Garth Crooks, OBV's director Simon Woolley talks to Crooks about his early days cleaning the boots of footballing legend Geoff Hurst, beating racism on the terraces, and becoming the first Black player-in the modern era- to score a goal in FA cup final.

Crooks also talks about life after being a professional player, including working in the governance of the game, and how it might be more representative and the momentous feeling he felt as a BBC reporter covering the South African world.
