Other than Rio the show is presented by absolute nobodies with zero knowledge of football, bias views, alienating some sections of the audience, could do with a lot more objectively. Unfortunately had to unfollow when Stephen who?son had a completely unnecessary slanderous attack at Newcastle United, come on Rio, get some better presenters.
Rio, Ste, Joel are a perfect trio.
Always a good lesson, this show. But Gary Neville… “If you think about bands like The Beatles, who talks about the bass player? “
Paul McCartney just choked on his dinner.
What a doughnut Gary! No wonder you’ve a program called stick to football
I actually love when Rio and the boys discuss big events in football. But they’ve been lacking lately. Didn’t cover the Man City v Arsenal decisive game right after the match, and still haven’t said anything about Arsenal winning the league. If Man U won the league, they would be on here straight away giving their reaction
Great balance of characters, Rio great insight from a footballer perspective very honest but true, Steve is fantastically brutal and Joel a great ringmaster, love it !
