Marseille became the only French team to win the Champions League after beating Milan in the 1993 Final.

 It was a crowning achievement and promised to usher in a new era of dominance for OM. That is, until the police dug up 250,000 francs in the garden of Christophe Robert’s Aunt.

Steven and Kevin discuss the rise and fall of Marseille under Bernard Tapie’s reign.

Looking forward to listening to this tonight although I may end up very angry 😠 That CSKA team were handsomely rewarded: you could tell just by looking at their celebrations after a meaningless 0-0 draw.

Oh man I want to listen to this and I’m sure you’ve done a great job but I just don’t know if I can

John Gillespie

Who got the 330k before the gers game ? Or have I heard this wrong?

John Palmer

So filthy at they Cheating Bastards for doing what they that Year.

John Davidson

Plotnikov if I recall correctly. Or was it the ghost of Lev Yashin? Great pod Steven, enjoyed listening to it this morning. Didn't know about half the stuff they were up to. The Abede Pele stuff is utterly disgusting in particular.

Great pod Steven & Kevin, superb listen. A few things I'd forgotten, like Beckenbauer being there for a bit and a few I didn't know, like saving Adidas. Tapie. Cheat! End of. Do anything to get his own way. Oh yes, did some positive, constructive things - so did Hitler!! UEFA bottling it at the time. But it took time after the event for pretinent facts to emerge, and don't forget France (Euro big 5 nation) were hosting the World Cup in a few years time. UEFA should have subsequently stripped them of the title & record blanked. At 'best' it would've been awarded by default to Milan. Can't just take it back to Rangers contesting final as the 'foul', gotta include all the group & qualifying games because everyone has a claim that other opponents were bribed / ref bought. All matches would need replayed, never going to happen. I couldn't ever wear a Marseille top either. I still celebrate any defeat they have in the Champions Lge with a clenched fist pump & hearty "Yaaas! GIRUY Cheating B@$tards!" to this day😆 They had an amazing team, shouldn't have needed to cheat / bribe / dope.

Very good pod lads. Watched the link, the handball is a shocker. Nice to see that classic Benfica Hummel kit
