  • Top notch interview with David Sheepshanks

    Congratulations on an excellent interview with David Sheepshanks, Stu Watson. Professional respectful and did what all great journalists do, ask the question and let the man talk. Highly enjoyable listen. Maybe colleagues should recognise what a great opportunity they have to engage well with a mentor of your calibre. Keep up the good work.

  • Best ITFC Pod

    By far the best ITFC podcast. Stu Watson is the star of the show, obviously, but it feels like a real community and they do excellent work (even when that means speaking the truth when the club don’t like it).

  • Best Pod

    Brilliant podcast so 5 stars - quality analysis and right about of bias towards town.

    Mark loves brining politics into football with far-left views - or would have been 6 stars!

  • Excellent Town Podcast

    Always pleased when a new show gets released for my car journeys, Stu’s knowledge of the game brings it together. Ross talks about food too much.
