    Apr 28 2026

    Stick to Cricket returns as Michael Vaughan, Phil Tufnell, Sir Alastair Cook and David “Bumble” Lloyd are joined by former Manchester United captain and Premier League manager Steve Bruce - Brought to you by Betfair.


    From life under Sir Alex Ferguson to unforgettable moments with Eric Cantona, Bruce shares brilliant stories from one of the most successful eras in English football. He opens up on Fergie’s mindset, the famous ‘hairdryer’ treatment and what it really took to survive and succeed in that Manchester United dressing room.


    There’s plenty of cricket crossover too, with Bruce revealing his love for the game, growing up watching Geoffrey Boycott, and even choosing cricket over football on occasion. The panel dive into comparisons between football and cricket, debating BazBall vs winning, and what England can learn from Fergie’s ruthless mentality.


    Bruce also reflects on facing some of the very best, including a nightmare encounter with Romario and how to deal with maverick talents like Cantona. There’s insight into management at the highest level too, from handling big personalities to knowing when to evolve a team.


    The conversation then turns to the current game, with discussion around England’s approach, Ashes preparation and whether modern teams are missing that winning edge.


    As always, it’s a mix of brilliant stories, strong opinions and plenty of laughs along the way.
