Ed needs help. He’s heard that the CIA poisoned his grandfather, legendary goalkeeper Gordon Banks. True, Banks did get ill with food poisoning at the World Cup in Mexico in 1970, causing England to crash out. Investigative journalist Gabriel Gatehouse is sceptical at first. But when Ed’s mum Wendy drops a tantalizing clue, Gabriel checks in with one of his old CIA contacts, who tells him: it’s not as crazy as it sounds. But they’d better hurry: the only living witness to this rumour is in his nineties, and in poor health…

Ed is the grandson of footballing legend Gordon Banks. He was a national icon, the only goalkeeper ever to win the soccer World Cup for England. But Ed’s heard a rumour: that in 1970, while defending the title, his granddad, his hero, was poisoned… by the CIA. All part of a Cold War plot to bolster a military dictatorship in Latin America, supposedly. Could this possibly be true? Banks did get ill in Mexico in 1970 with food poisoning. And England crashed out, marking the start of decades of hurt. Ed enlists the help of investigative journalist Gabriel Gatehouse. Together they embark on a journey into the bewildering world of Cold War espionage, a journey that threatens to unravel 60 years of sporting history; or possibly… to knock Ed’s granddad off his pedestal. Foul Play is an Audible Original, produced for Audible by Grayhouse Productions.
