TNA podcast - London Irish Rifles football charge at Battle of Loos

The latest podcast from the National Archives in England is entitled ‘Over the top: a foul a blurry foul’ – the first football charge of the First World War. It is a 49 minute long talk from Iain Adams of the International Football Institute, which looks at what really happened when the London Irish Rifles performed the first football charge at the Battle of Loos on 25 September 1915.

The podcast can be heard at http://media.nationalarchives.gov.uk/index.php/top-foul-blurry-foul-first-football-charge-first-world-war/ or downloaded for free from iTunes.
