Fred Asquith On The Ball

Today on FoB I discuss why Man United are rotten to the core, singling out Harry Maguire as being representative of the problem. I also reflect on Diego Gomez's incredible long range strike and lay out my 5-point criteria for the best long range goals. We then move on to review the Dubois vs Wardley fight we previewed last week before finishing off with a really interesting Voice Note Hot Take from Rami about how much World Cup Wins factor in the GOAT debate.

Today on FoB I once again give my neutral take on the Man City 115 Guilty Verdict situation in the aftermath of their 3-0 victory over Liverpool. I discuss why the focus was not on the game itself and whether that was right. I then move on to marvel at Jordan Henderson's ability to make Cold Palmer crack a smile, before finishing the footy chat by debating the lack of a red card for Luke Shaw (and the reasons why he lost the plot). We then dive into a preview on Dubois vs Wardley II, a heavyweight title fight sequel coming THIS Saturday that I think you should be aware of. I discuss Dubois recent career and my prediction for the fight. I touch on F1 and why I'm falling out of love with the sport, before as always finishing off with a voice note hot take - Send FoB a voice note! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://memo.fm/fredasquithontheball⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUBSCRIBE and join the FoB Family!RATE & REVIEW!

Today on FoB we start with my account of an ALL ACCESS day at the NFL courtesy of Sky Sports. I talk about my observations behind the scenes as well as the sport and US sports in general. We then have a little natter about the Fury/Joshua fight announcement, press conference, and my general feelings of disdain for the whole affair. We naturally move on to a debrief of the England Camp, the 7-0 in full view of Croatian kids and why Jude Bellingham makes me wanna cry. I finish off with the inevitable second rant about City's 115 charges and potential punishment. SUBSCRIBE and join the FoB Family!RATE & REVIEW!
