Ciarán Murphy

The big question many of our World Service members have been wrestling with this week is, did we spend too much time, not enough time, or just about the right amount of time talking about Lyndon Baines Johnson this week?

It's time for our weekly Second Captain's Tasting Menu.

My name is Ciarán Murphy.

And honestly, I think we Goldilocksed it pretty nicely.

But hey, that's just me.

Now, how we ended up talking about LBJ so much is a mystery to me.

But he has a certain gruff appeal which appealed to the tailoring, Ken.

Tailoring being the family business, of course.

Elsewhere on Planet Second Captains, we caught up with Ireland international Harvey Vale.

Currently in the last week of his club season with QPR.

We remember Harvey being brought in at short notice for the playoff against Prague.

Even the rumours that Ken helped, well, if not start, then at least stuck, that he was in line for a starting place out of nowhere in his first international cap.

But his journey through the Chelsea youth system as a young player through to the first team was not easy.

And that's something we discussed with him as well.

Lots of different managers, lots of different owners even.

I mean, you were there.

I wonder if you can remember the summer of, I guess, 2021.

This is when Frank Lampard was the manager.

And if I'm not wrong, Chelsea had a transfer ban, right, at that time.

Maybe I've got the year.
