  • If you’re an England fan …

    … this is THE pod you should be listening to. A combo of the earnest, detailed analysis of “Not the Top Twenty” fame plus the highly relatable, emotional fandom we all feel. Men’s, Women’s (can’t forget Robin and crew!), Unders - it’s all covered and all covered impeccably well.

  • Really enjoyable

    Good podcast. Lovely to have some in depth discussion of the national sides from people who are invested as fans without falling into hype.

    I’ve been a bit frustrated by some of the more established football podcasts that treat internationals as kind of an annoyance and cover them with an air “well talk about this, but we’re above it”. Nice to have one which enjoys international football for what it is without comparing it to club football or whining about how it breaks up the season.
