  • Review of Jill Scott’s Coffee Club

    I think this is a great podcast for getting to virtually know your idols of football and occasionally hear the other people who are famous and have a connection to football. This podcast is so entertaining because of the hilarious things they talk about. These are things such as the comedy footballer get up to at camp. Highly recommend if you are a fan of football and getting to hear about your heroes.
