Legendary football manager Martin O’Neill chooses another two Tracks of My Years.

Widely regarded as one of the most respected figures in football - with a career spanning more than 50 years - Martin was a key part of Brian Clough’s legendary Nottingham Forest team in the 70s and early 80s,

During his illustrious career on and off the pitch, Martin represented Northern Ireland more than 60 times, leading them to the 1982 World Cup.

Just as successful as a manager, he took Leicester City to two League Cups, Celtic to seven trophies - including an historic treble and the UEFA Cup Final - and Republic of Ireland to the 2016 European Championship.

In 2002, Norwich supporters voted him into the club's Hall of Fame, and Martin was awarded an OBE for services to sport in 2004.

He has worked in television as an analyst for Â鶹ԼÅÄ and ITV at the World Cup and the European Championships, as well on Champions League matches.

Martin's autobiography, 'On Days Like These', charts his life story covering all aspects of his extraordinary career.

Martin's next two choices come from The Beatles and Small Faces.

Plus Ken's got another edition of PopMaster and your dedications with today's love song. There's also the Record and Album of the Week. If you want to contact the show, just email ken.bruce@bbc.co.uk.
