  • ACSOM

    Glass half empty it seems with ACSOM who seem to forget their club has been run very well most of the time since we did sack the board due to them being almost bankrupt trying to catch the club which actually did go bankrupt. Too much nonsense about the board , signings , coaching roles , all of which is guessing as we all know nothing

    like most supporters . Very long. Too much for me . Byee

  • Learn how to pronounce the players’ names!

    Love the show. Insightful, spirited, smart. But please learn how to pronounce Tounekti and Iheanacho. You lose credibility when you say “Tounetki” and “Innyacho” - as was the case with your inability to get Rogic’s name right.

    When they talk football it’s usually decent but there’s too much rubbish spouted on other business.
