Pat Nevin shares stories and insights - revealing, thought-provoking and funny - from 40 years in football.

A familiar voice on BBC 5 Live's coverage of the Premier League and the FIFA World Cup, Pat has seen football from all sides: from being a star player at Chelsea and Everton and playing for Scotland under Sir Alex Ferguson to being chairman of the players union and even a spell trying to balance the books as a club chief executive.

Right from the start of his career, Pat has been known as one of the most entertaining and literate voices in football: the fans' man on the inside; a music fan as likely to be found DJing at club nights as appearing as a media pundit.

Pat's two acclaimed recent memoirs have been packed with both behind-the-scenes football insight and unpredictable anecdotes involving both a who's who of football and a surprising supporting cast from beyond the game - from Kenny Dalglish, Ally McCoist and Ken Bates to Morrissey, Saddam Hussein and John Peel. His live shows delight audiences with an approach that falls somewhere unique between fast-paced documentary, chat show and stand-up.

Pat will be in conversation with journalist Duncan Steer.
