So just what goes into the development of a cultured left peg? Well, lashings of culture of course!

It’s an homage to the players who make us believe however fleetingly, that anything is possible…
“They sent me a rough demo, and I absolutely loved it even though my own left foot is very uncultured,” said Jim. “We were thrilled Jim was up for it and can’t wait to see him playing the role on stage.” Said Michael Moss from The 38th Match development team.
The 38th Match is a high-octane roller coaster that asks the question, ‘How can a locally owned club compete against oligarchs and sovereign wealth funds?’ As it tells the story of United, perennial underachievers trying to stay true to themselves, against all odds.
Guitar, bass, drums and tracked by Canadian indie icon Derek Downham who’s worked with The Tragically Hip, Broken Social Scene, Serena Ryder and many more.
