  • Beyond the Breakdown is a fantastic addition to the podcast.

    I learn so much from every episode. The data, tactics, trends, and everything else are clearly and carefully explained. I love ‘Beeyond’ the Breakdown, as it should be called.

  • Great episode - Pre Plymouth FA Cup

    Really enjoyed this episode with Billy chatting to Argyle fan Joe Bell. A man who clearly loves his club and football as a whole. Great knowledge about Brentford despite not playing us for a while and great perspective on Argyle’s recent troubles. Good luck to Argyle for the rest of their season.
