The Fish 12581 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 To be honest I can't be bothered with The Times podcast, the Independent podcast, or the Totally Football show either. All spend most of their time talking about the same teams, raking over the same trash tabloid stories. I don't care about Mourinho's latest outburst, or if Arsenal fans want Wenger out this week or not. Prefer Football Ramble, and Not the Top 20.

Andrew 7485 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 The Football Ramble and On The Continent are consistently the best two pods going for me. Don't quite take themselves as seriously as the others do and are far better for it. the TFS has such a range of pundits that sometimes its really good but others its just shite.

Aye that about sums up TFS. I can’t remember if it was that or another one but they had a mackem lad on recently (not Wilson who is always interesting on podcasts) who I guess played some games in the lower leagues and he kept interrupting everyone to basically remind them of it . He came out with a shite story about how someone he played with started on Roy Keane, talked about how the best part of his day as a youth player was the group bath at the end of training, and ended with his tip for which game to watch at the weekend as some really obscure semi pro tie. You could tell Rafa Honigstein had no idea how to react to him. Just checked and it was Michael Cox. Edited April 13, 2018 by Howay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could tell Rafa Honigstein had no idea how to react to him. Oh oh it was Michael Cox. It was David Preece, who I don't mind too much usually but aye that particular story got away from him a bit. Hongisteins a bit of a knob as well mind, him and Laurens are good examples of people who live in bubbles and just don't understand normal football fandom anymore, Rafa struggled last week to get close to understanding that idea that performing well and finishing higher up the league if you aren't neccessarily going to win it actually matters to people who support teams that don't just always win the league like his team do. Cox, Wilson, Horncastle, the opta guy and the finances guy are all good, finance guy particularly offers something no one else does in that he understands how agents/transfers/takeovers etc work. Seems to think theres a good shout of us being bought this summer and that absolutely no one wants anywhere near sunderland, so I like him. Always liked Iain Macintosh as well but he doesn't appear on the regular TFS anymore as he does the football league show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Aye, agreed on Honigstein that particular argument was really weird. Its the first time I’ve heard that Preece tbh, the mackem accent really grates on me so he was already on thin ice then his craic on that particular episode was rancid. Fully agree about the ramble and OTC as well, I like that they don’t take it too seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 17238 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Ramble goes the other way sometimes where the wackiness can sometimes be dialled up when they realise they haven't got a fucking clue what they're talking about. Or it did when I still bothered to listen to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 12581 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 We come up quite a bit, even when we're not a car-wreck. They do seem to try and balance how often they talk about the big clubs, whereas the other pods will happily spend ten minutes talking about Man Utd, Liverpool and Arsenal every fucking episode.

wykikitoon 28572 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Whenever you see players or managers talking at a game now they're doing it behind their hands.

Tom 15535 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Fair play to Accrington Stanley for getting promoted to league one. On a completely unrelated note who remembers in 2009 when "A Love Supreme" made T shirts detailing the dates of our fixtures with Peterborough? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 12581 Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Have you seen the survey? It's maybe 5 or 6 questions, ranking the players, the manager and even the fans, out of 10. Entirely worthless exercise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
