  • Used to be great

    Used to be the only Pod I would listen to, but find it constantly frustrating that the people talking have no idea about what’s going on in the football world or even within Spurs. Shame. Maybe need some new faces?

  • Informative/essential listening but….

    I just wish Theo hosted it permanently. Mike’s mispronunciation of certain player names is really triggering, not to mention disrespectful - how the heck he gets Holbierre from Hojbjerg, for example I don’t know. Can’t remember who he mispronounced the other day but come on, make an effort!Theo though, very funny and overall the show is an absolute must to add to my 8 hours a day trucking the roads of NZ. Thanks guys for all your hard work.

  • Quite good

    This podcast was a cracker back in the day and Theo Delaney is still terrific. But the latest episode with Steve Perryman was like listening to an old man shouting at the clouds. Questioning medical science because “we were tougher in our day” is a load of old tosh. Steve was a terrific leader and captain in his day. A legend. But his monologues now are quite tedious.

    Guess and presenters are knowledgable and topics are covered honestly.

    Look out for some great social events, organised by Mike.
