Listen "From the Archives: Remembering Darlington’s Chelsea Giant-Killing with Ron Harbertson"
Episode Synopsis
A bonus episode from the archives: In 2023, Michael Cansfield spoke with Ron Harbertson, who sadly passed away last month at the age of 95. Ron played a key role in one of Darlington’s greatest FA Cup runs during the 1957–58 season, scoring in every tie from the first to the fourth round, including a goal in the famous 4–1 victory over First Division Chelsea in the fourth round.
As Darlington get their FA Cup campaign underway again this weekend, it’s a perfect time to hear Ron’s memories of that historic run.
