nice to have the police not referred to as "pigs" this week Max
Best podcast of the season, awesome. Please do more of these. How about the 1970 World Cup, that was a feast of brilliance?
what an intro
For offside, just make it offside if you can see space between the attacking player and the defender if he's ahead of the defender. Simple
what was the good news for Mr Portsmouth? was Barry edited out for being too morose?
when are you coming to Bristol
when are you going to come to Bristol for live shows
Great show as usual lads. The banter is as good as the insights. Both pants. Just kidding :-) Every weekI look forward to your shows more than MOTD2!
Ellis is soooo much more charming and funnier than Max. The banterometer goes down to an acceptable level with him too.
Shakhtar is leading 13 points
problem with Barca is Griezmann
If the fixture congestion is due to cup competitions, then get rid of the league cup. I can't think of any reason for both the FA cup and League Cup to co-exist. Liverpool could put out a reserve squad and give a giant middle finger tonthe league cup.
Son gets a "shithousery" mention but Kane going down clutching his face after not being touched is ignored. Hmmm...
I'm a regular listener from India. Would love to know to Barry's Indian itinerary.
Sounds like Musa has never left whatever area of Berlin he lives in if he thinks the bars in Prenzlauer Berg close at 10. Ah the snobbery of the new wave of gentrifier...
Same as always, onto the next game, weekend fixtures will erase the racism from the memory. VAR controvery, Man United's form, who's the next manager to be sacked etc etc. Its how it always is, nothing changes.
Don't get John Nicholson back in a hurry please.....
For a second there I thought Paulo...'Nikki' was just doing a funny voice.
Barry and Max are the dream team. They need a regular slot on talksport through the week
Faye looks like Lucy Punch!
