  • Consistently insightful and considered

    Too many podcasts/ videos jumping on negativity. I’ve watched James’ videos and content for years and it’s consistently refreshing to have positive or neutral angles to popular football discourse. Even if draws on negatives with a team it’s not emotional and is based on performance data and often puts a positive spin to fans
