  • Sound quality & volume

    Loving the content but you need to sort out the sound levels! If I turn the volume up to listen to the quiet bits it blows my ears off when it changes presenter, let alone when an advert kicks in. It’s ruining a really good podcast.

  • Top podcast!

    In an age of a plethora (and in some cases sensationalist rubbish) fan/social media channels, it’s great to see/hear some decent views on the trials and tribulations on MUFC. Wayne is a top host, who is not only passionate but offers informative views on the ongoing issues (and there are many), be that on the pitch or off it. Having a top ex professional in Paul Parker, who has seen it and done it, also provide his views is excellent. Top show Wayne and colleagues - Thanks.

  • Whinging & whining and spent £B!

    5 stars for the comedy value, United are really not very good and spent fortunes to be so, and long may it last.
