Peter Barnes meeting George Best, Maine Road Stories & winning PFA young player of the year | Ep.9

In this incredible episode of Woody Unscripted, Mike Wood and Kevin Horlock sit down with Manchester City legend Peter Barnes for a fascinating deep dive into old-school football, Manchester history, and what it was really like growing up around the game during football’s most iconic era. Peter Barnes takes us back to a time when footballers weren’t protected, when wingers got kicked for 90 minutes, and when legends like George Best weren’t just names on TV — they were real people you could meet, speak to, and even knock on the door of. From stories about Denis Law, Manchester City’s golden years, England camps, and the brutal reality of playing in the 70s, Peter gives an unfiltered look at the game before modern football changed everything. He also opens up about the pressure of following in his father’s footsteps, the expectations placed on young players, and the mindset required to survive in a ruthless football culture. This episode isn’t just football nostalgia — it’s football history, told by someone who lived it. We dive into: • what George Best was really like behind the scenes • the truth about football in the 60s and 70s • playing for Manchester City and England at a young age • the pressure of being “the son of” in professional football • why old-school football was far more brutal than today • PFA Young Player of the Year and “bottling” the speech • stories involving Denis Law, Ray Wilkins, Kevin Keegan and more • the mentality it took to survive as a winger in that era • why modern football will never replicate that generation If you love Manchester City history, classic football stories, or want to hear what the game was really like before the Premier League era — this episode is unmissable. This is football heritage. And it’s the type of conversation you don’t hear anymore. — Woody Unscripted is the UK’s most unfiltered podcast about addiction, recovery, and real life stories.
