Episode 22: Raze Anatomy (ft Neil “Razor” Ruddock) From learning his trade in the unforgiving Lions Den, to representing England under Wembleys iconic towers, the career of Neil “Razor” Ruddock had it all. Once considered the most promising centre back in Britain, Razor provides an in depth and humorous analysis of his footballing life, in which the one time teenage prodigy of Venables’ Spurs, became a symbol of 1990’s Liverpool and their now infamous ‘Spice Boy’ culture. Although undoubtedly a confrontational, divisive and controversial figure, the enormous Ruddock, possesses an even larger heart. Sharpness never escaped the blades of Razor, as charm, wit and remarkable insight dominated his appearance on The Michael Anthony Show. In a diverse discussion, the former international delves into a variety of topics, ranging from locking horns with Spencer Pratt, to playing for West Ham as a life long Milwall fan. The former Southampton man may now appear on our boxes whilst sitting in a jungle, or impersonating Neil Diamond on stage, but Razor is, and will always be, a football man. Di Canio, Barnes, Shearer, Hoddle, Lampard. Ruddock shared dressing rooms with many of Europes finest footballing artists. With over 300 top flight appearances to his name, it is impossible not to be fascinated with his take on all the issues that surround our beautiful game.
