  • Hilarity and bafoonary

    Not a clue! Chris’s refusal to learn how to work a simple app is stubbornness personified but like him I’m a maverick (template teams are boring) - Ally attendance is a concern but not as much as ‘the experts’ punctuality - tips aplenty (but less than 50% useful) Sutton Death and ‘The Clinic’ are highlights #RelegateThemAll

  • Slightly Farcical

    The pod itself is alright, still think there’s better out there, but the advice from the presenters (esp ABB and SMD) is ridiculous.

    Not sure how many times I’ve listened to the pod, only to listen the next week and hear they haven’t taken any of their own advice. Is this designed to help people, or try and throw people off!? E.g last week about Haaland - ABB laughs at Chris when he says you’re surely not going to take out Haaland, calls him stupid, only for him to captain Haaland!? Not sure i... more

  • Blagman Dave

    Normally love the characters and bants on this pod but the Statman is clearly rattled from poor decisions, started blagging that he doesn’t care about his team and just cackling when things get heated. Horrid to listen to.

Introducing... The Wayne Rooney Show
Q: What does the Merseyside derby mean to you?
It was a game I hated at first due to the intense pressure, especially being an Evertonian. Winning it is a great feeling, but the build-up was often horrible.

Q: Chris, why did you bench boost in 32 and not 33?
