5 Live Octoberfest


It's been a fantastic few days in Sheffield with 5 Live in town for Octoberfest with three days of special programmes in the UK's finest city. I helped out on the world record attempt for the most number of players involved in a continuous football match and we did it! 364 people took part in a 24 hour 5 Live-a-side match at the Sheffield United Academy in the Shirecliffe area of Sheffield. Click here for some of the highlights of Octoberfest on the 5 Live website.

    But why?

    Actually I am serious.

    What do you get out of running all night and getting exhausted in order to break a record?

    To raise money for Children in Need, for people to celebrate their love of football and have some fun.
