Frank Pangallo on Football, Journalism, Politics and a Lifetime of Unforgettable Stories In this episode: How a job as a copyboy led to a five-decade career in journalism, radio, television and current affairs. Covering the National Soccer League, the early A-League and four World Cups: Italia 1990, USA 1994, Germany 2006 and South Africa 2010. The prejudice and racism football faced in Australian mainstream media, including the sensational coverage of crowd trouble and the “Wog ball” stereotype. Why removing ethnic club names such as Sydney Croatia, Adelaide Juventus and South Melbourne Hellas damaged football’s connection to its migrant communities. Frank’s extraordinary playing story: facing future Socceroo Aurelio Vidmar in an amateur match and helping bring him to Adelaide City’s attention. The 2006 World Cup scramble that saw Frank sent to Germany without accommodation or accreditation after Australia’s ratings exploded. Why the A-League and Australian football have lost media coverage, star players and commercial momentum, while the Matildas have attracted record audiences, including 11 million viewers for one match. Frank’s political career, his six-and-a-half-hour parliamentary speech opposing poker-machine reforms, and his successful campaign to make AEDs widely available across South Australia. Memorable encounters with Diego Maradona, George Harrison, Robert Plant, Michael Schumacher, Gerhard Berger and Ayrton Senna. Frank’s planned memoir, The Bastards I’ve Known, and his message that setbacks, prejudice and doubt do not have to determine a person’s future. A closing discussion about Manchester City’s financial charges, football spending rules and whether European football needs stronger financial controls.
