  • Reign in the biases

    Once it was Carl Anka’s United bias that ruined the pod, now it’s Adrian Clarke and Arsenal, it’s pathetic

  • Euro the way forward…

    Agree with many of the previous reviews - the Euro pod is standout, James at his best and specialist personable natural euro reporters make for best version of the pod - adverts no biggie and pretty standard. My advice - get your ears around pod that interests you most, as for me, the euro pod best out there

  • European Edition used to be the best show EVER!

    My whole review is only about the European Edition section.

    When all 4 journalist from Europe’s top 5 leagues joined Mr. Richardson, the show used to be amazing. Full of banter, hot takes, niche information and more. Now, Spain and Germany correspondents just have a separate chat with Mr. Richardson and it’s edited together. Or if once in a while they decide to join, they don’t bother to stay for the rest of the show.

    James (the master) Horncastle and Jules are amazing. Keep it up.

  • Where Jimbo goes rightminded ppl follow

    Lose Arsenal Clarke asap. Insuffererable, unlistenable. Bring back Rafa. The people demand it!

    Otherwise, simply the best UK based football pod, by far. (Only Second Captains, Irish, on football is as good...or possibly better, heresy I know.) No wonder Glendenning is so bitter. On a side note. Laurens is a buffoon and shouldn’t be allowed on, and certainly shouldn’t be allowed talk about France or PSG. Not a real journalist. Gallic apologist.

    Again, bring back Rafa. Not the same without him, b... more
