The goalkeeper, who was to make 53 presentations for the National, has opened up about events at the camp of the Three Lions in the 1990s, broadcast Periscopi.

Speaking to the former coach, Harry Redknapp, 74-year-old, in a podcast, he said: ”Peter Taylor was the first to heat me up.
It was weird: we're going for a warm-up, he tested my speed.
I thought, "Wait a minute. I'm broke. The fact that I smoked 20 cigarettes a day did not help. ”
He then continued: ” Things change. We met with the team of England in the '90s and the first thing you'd do is meet all the staff at a bar.
It was like... We'll train sometime tomorrow.
And we would stay at the bar until 2 or 3 am. And that was standard.
You can't imagine now. I can't imagine Gareth Southgaten saying come meet me at the bar.” /Periscope. com/
