Life's a Pitch Back With Ashton and Webster
Saturday, 9th Jul 2022 10:51

Life’s a Pitch returns at lunchtime today for the first time since March 2020 (BBC Radio Suffolk, midday to 2pm) and features interviews with Town CEO Mark Ashton and former goalkeeper-coach Malcolm Webster. Host Mark Murphy will also be joined by legend-in-residence Terry Butcher, Tractor Boy and TWTD's Phil Ham.

The show was halted at the start of the pandemic and has been missing from the schedules for the last two seasons.

However, is it is returning ahead of 2022/23 as one half of Mark Murphy’s new four-hour Saturday show.

Ashton will speaks to the show about Town's summer and pre-season ahead of a huge 2022/23 campaign.

We'll also catch up with Webster, who coached keepers under George Burley, Paul Jewell and Mick McCarthy, who was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer. He'll also be talking about his time with the Blues.

The Webster family have a JustGiving page to enable donations to Prostate Cancer UK here.
