  • Great podcast but betting adverts :(

    Love this podcast but now seems to have become infected by the betting advert disease infecting the whole of football fandom. I unsubscribed from The Football Ramble for the betting ads getting rammed down your throat. "Up to 496 suicides are linked to gambling every year in England alone. Up to 1.44 million adults are addicted to gambling in the UK". Well done lads. Enjoy your advert money.

  • Don’t bother with the iconic scorelines episode

    So booooring. Too dominated by Hurrey and Eccleshare and too Arsenal/Liverpool centric, despite Walker and cox’s best endeavours. Worst episode ever
