John Toshack leads Swansea City from the Fourth Division to the First in just three years in a nostalgic documentary tribute to football’s simpler times
Despite the title, this isn’t exactly a profile of John Toshack, Liverpool’s towering centre forward of 70s vintage. It’s in fact a likable, nostalgia-fuelled recap of his first, and arguably most improbable, achievement after he became a manager: getting Swansea City from the Fourth Division to the First in double-quick time between 1978 and 1981.
Toshack, now talking in avuncular fashion from retirement in Mallorca, went on to bigger things with Real Madrid and the Welsh national side, but his vertigo-inducing ride up the Football League is still fondly remembered four decades later – not least by the grizzled collection of Toshack’s former players who talk about it like it happened only a few weeks ago, and can’t really believe it. Director Pete Jones does a pretty decent job of compensating for the fact that this all happened in the pre Sky Sports era, when archive footage of lower-division games is largely nonexistent. The film makes up for it with homespun charm: it disinters topics as varied as Dolly the catering manager, the team holiday in Magaluf as they neared promotion, and the type size of the headline in the local paper once they got there.

- Bournemouth score three late goals in 3-3 draw with Swansea
Fulham missed the chance to wrap up the Championship title as Nottingham Forest boosted their own automatic promotion hopes with a 1-0 win at Craven Cottage.

Steve Bruce is still seeking his first win in charge of beleaguered West Brom after a 2-0 defeat at home to Swansea. West Brom supporters chanted: “You’re not fit to wear the shirt,” as Bruce’s side’s alarming slump continued.
Late goals from Joel Piroe and Cyrus Christie made it one win in 12 Championship games for West Brom, one point from a possible 21 and one goal in 10-and-a-half hours of football. Callum Robinson twice hit a post but West Brom failed to test Andrew Fisher, the Swansea goalkeeper.

- Reports 72-year-old is in intensive care in a Barcelona hospital
- Former Real Madrid and Wales manager has severe pneumonia
Liverpool, Swansea and Cardiff have wished their former striker John Toshack well after reports that he has been in intensive care in a Barcelona hospital.
According to the Spanish newspaper El Diario Vasco, the 72-year-old was taken to hospital last Monday with severe pneumonia after contracting coronavirus and since Saturday has been on a ventilator. Toshack played for Cardiff before his hugely successful spell in the 1970s with Liverpool, and was then player-manager of Swansea.
