Osborne and Steinborn-Busse on Life's a Pitch - Ipswich Town News

Blues FA Cup final goalscorer Roger Osborne and Bracknell chairman Kayne Steinborn-Busse are the guests on Life’s a Pitch, which is live on BBC Radio Suffolk at lunchtime (12-2pm).

Host Mark Murphy will also be joined by legend-in-residence Terry Butcher, Tractor Boy and TWTD’s Phil Ham.

Osborne will be remembering that famous day in May 1978 when his goal saw the Blues to a 1-0 victory over Arsenal to claim the FA Cup for the first and only time.

Steinborn-Busse will give the lowdown on preparations for Monday’s first-round FA Cup tie between his club and Town at Bottom Meadow.

Also on the show will be Josh Bartlett from the Away Days Beer Company, who is hosting a tap takeover at The Baths on Civic Drive ahead of next Saturday’s home game against Cheltenham to help raise funds for Town legend Marcus Stewart, who recently announced he is suffering with motor neurone disease.

Recovered from last week’s 4-4 draw at Charlton? Confident Town can avoid a cup shock on Monday?
