On the 30th and final episode of Season 1 of The Away End, Daniel tells a story of his first international call-up, and how he got the name “Cabeza de Brócoli”. Then John ends the season with the obligatory AFC Wimbledon story about Barry Fuller and how, when things seem bleak and even futile, seeing things to their utter end with ferocious effort creates the most memorable result, no matter the outcome. And for the last time of this 2026 World Cup, your letters bring us home as they always have!
