True enough, but wasn't Sunday Supplement out before Podcasts became popular? It would have been a good show for broader conversations about stuff, and it isn't at a time that a lot of more casual football ... consumers would be watching. It's like BT European football show was very good, but I think the time slot had Frank from Gillingham moaning about "so-called experts boring on and not enough goals".

Yeah and it was shit then too, and football bores and hipsters got their boring hipstering out of the way via message board instead *wink*. Sky don't really promote foreign leagues and they dont give a fuck about the football league either, they stay chummy with the PL teams, players and managers and sunday supplement represents that perfectly as does all of their other football coverage. You want the stuff you're talking about you go for the Totally football show or On the Continent (my favourite two) or any number of other pods that have intelligent and generally agendaless journos from all over europe on.

LooneyToony 41 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 4 hours ago, The Fish said: It's a reasonable idea for a tv show, but they got the details wrong. The kind of viewers who'd be interested in hearing journalists discuss off-field issues affecting a variety of clubs want actual variety. But this is, constantly, discussions on Mourinho's latest misdirection, Wenger, Klopp, Guardiola or the carry-on of players from the top clubs. It's an hour long show, isn't it? So, why not talk about the Oystons, or Ciellini. Talk about how Turkish football is fucking insane. Discuss how well Nolan is doing in his first real managerial role. Don't spend 45 minutes talking about Mourinho doing the same boring shit he does after every disappointing result as if we don't already know that he's just trying to get us talking about anything aside from his inflexibility. This is the reason they have a TV show and you have a Podcast. Not that I don't love your podcast because I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the point in travelling? They've got a game tomorrow but they also played a friendly on Friday. I don't even think he was on the bench (according to what I read on .com over the weekend). Like you say, seems pointless him travelling but I don't think the club can stop him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the point in travelling? To possibly play for algeria, but it works out for us unless he gets injured again. He travels, trains (which he'd be doing with us) and potentially plays a bit of a match and gets some gametime under his belt before coming back to us. He's unlikely to be overly fatigued so, assuming hes at the right stage in recovery, some senior minutes will do him good. What's the problem?
