Chillax: FA Cup semi-finals loom, Burnley smell blood and Zlatan breaks America Apr 19, 2018

Show notes

We focus our dustbin hearts on perceptions of Paul Pogba, Arsenal’s potential summer of chaos and this weekend’s forthcoming Mike Dean Festival, bizarrely billed as Stoke vs Burnley.

As well as all that we cast our minds back to Louis Van Gaal’s FA Cup clipboard, there’s mistaken identity in Ireland and Marcus ruins the World Cup.

Flannels: United hand City the title, Southampton struggle and Wolves seal promotion Apr 16, 2018

Show notes

What a sparkling end to a vintage title race! We look back over West Brom winning the title at Old Trafford (for Man City), Southampton’s latest indignity and Thierry Henry’s sparkling beard oil.

Elsewhere there’s Mike Dean at the World Cup, a glittering future for Brendy Rodgers and, would you believe it, talk of Jonjo Shelvey getting an England call up. It just won’t go away.

In bins: The Champions League explodes, Harry Kane gets his goal and Mic Drop Mick’s had enough Apr 12, 2018

Show notes

We delight in a seismic week of football where Gigi Buffon lets his emotions get the better of him, agent of chaos Sergio Ramos excels himself and Pep Guardiola resorts to using doubles in a bid to save Man City’s season.

Alongside this there’s a surprising change of direction from Rafa Benitez, an absolutely textbook impression of Arsene Wenger and liberal use of the word ‘chubbies’.

Respect the dogs: United make City wait, Big Sam causes unrest and Napoli get us giddy Apr 09, 2018

Show notes

We’re back from Naples and though pieces of us will remain there forever we’ve raced into the studio to bring you our wares. There are mentions for Big Sam’s pyjamas, Hatem Ben Arfa’s year in the cupboard and, of course, dogs.

As if that isn’t enough there’s positivity for Newcastle, Southampton (sort of, by which we mean ‘negativity’) and once again we simply cannot ignore good old Neil Warnock.

Michel Vroom: Liverpool brush City aside, Everton brace themselves and Man United look to put next door’s party on hold Apr 05, 2018

Show notes

Liverpool get us all giddy after their scintillating display against a rattled Man City, Mick McCarthy weighs up whether he can be bothered with the West Brom job and there’s something about Aleksandar Mitrovic stealing time.

As well as all this Marcus gets understandably irked by a pitch for Ramble Airlines, Charlie Adam throws a strop and Hatem Ben Arfa has a pizza-based dilemma.

Taxi for Pards: Alan leaves West Brom, Spurs win the Battle of the Bridge and Zlatan steals the show Apr 02, 2018

Show notes

Happy Easter you lot! We drag ourselves to the studio even on a Bank Holiday to bring you news of Alan Pardew’s departure from West Brom, David Wagner’s relaxed attitude towards the relegation battle and Man City preparing their championship champagne.

Elsewhere there’s some ‘instinctual’ reactions from Marko Arnautovic, some unsurprising contractual stipulations from Ronaldinho and, of course, the gift that keeps on Kevin.

Steak and Barry pie: England march on, the Premier League returns and Carlos Tevez continues his reign of terror Mar 29, 2018

Show notes

England’s 1-1 draw was so promising that known misog Pete Donaldson is getting excited, even if he does also treble down on a pre-existing gripe. To temper this excitement Aleksandar Mitrovic remains aflame, Carlos Tevez continues his exemplary professionalism and Arsene Wenger pipes up about some new isms.

On top of this we welcome the Premier League back into the fold, we hear from some trustworthy Barrys and there’s a treat from the Neil Warnock archives.

The milk sweats: England crush the Dutch, Scotland look to the future and Ronaldo puffs out his chest Mar 26, 2018

Show notes

England took on the Netherlands and gave us reasons to make noises, get excited about the World Cup and talk about Bas Dost, three things that are frankly long overdue. Discover our joy as we use phrases like “distribution”, “versatile” and “got a big Lampard.”

Meanwhile, in the rest of the sport, Scotland got back underway with Big Eckos of the past and dispatches from the Hamburger queue, Cristiano Ronaldo reminded everybody who’s boss and we put out a call to Barrys everywhere.

Love or slaps,

Walter Tull: Profile of a Pioneer Mar 23, 2018

Show notes

100 years ago this weekend, Walter Tull was killed in action in the First World War. While not a name that immediately springs to mind when we think of the people that influenced our game the most over the years, Tull was a pioneer.

We first profiled him back in November 2009, and with increasing calls for him to be recognised posthumously for his services both to football and the military, we thought it would be nice to re-release his entry into our hall of fame from nine or so years ago.

His story is incredible and his contribution to football and society in general can never be underestimated.
