Spent much of today catching up with the Number 1 podcast. Itās interesting. Iāve always found David Preece engaging when talking about goalkeepers and hearing him analysing in such depth is brilliant - particularly as a former, failed keeper.
I wonder if it might lose something from being a bit repetitive in time - I mean, hopefully itāll evolve as time goes on, but I donāt know how much mileage there is in analysing the same 20 keepers week in week out.
Time will tell, but a great (and different) listen.
Does anyone else think Marcottiās one of the very worst pundits?
Canāt stand his vocal inflection, let alone his teenagery hot takes on all things football.
Literally everyone? I may be prejudiced because of the Americanness but his writing is absolutely godawful unreadable shite as well
Not a fan. Brings nothing to the table at all. Made to look all the more inadequate when sharing a platform with someone like James Horncastle.
100% Team Football Weekly now, Totally has pissed me off too many times.
Tempted to listen to Golazzo though, despite not giving a shit about Italian football. Is it good?
Both were a bit poor this week. The Guardian roped a work experience lad in, and TFS had that annoying angry southerner on again.
I think both are pretty distinct shows now, tbh. TFS more indepth and more varied discussion. FW more laidback and injokes. I prefer the former really.
Preece, MacIntosh, Ben Green, Horncastle and MacInnes all on this i noticedā¦
Taken the plunge into āQuickly Kevinā and picking and choosing the episodes. Really enjoyed the Le-Tiss, Dowie, Champ Man, Dermot Gallagher and James Richardson episodes. Currently listening to Steve Bruceās novel review.
Considering Iām not a huge fan of Widdicombeās comedy (and Iām staggered that Carl Serrant didnāt resonate on his radar), I think heās pretty good on this. However, the laugh of his co-host is so irritating. Laughs at EVERYTHING. Very loudly. HAHAHAHAHAHA THATāS VERY FUNNY, JOSH HAHAHAHAHAHAHA>
The laughing does my tits in.
Definitely listen to the Elis James episode on Gould, itās fantastic.
Iāll stick that one on next.
Iām not a huge fan of Ellis James either, but Iāve heard good things about this episode already.
Youāreā¦ what? Really? Is he not the most likable man in the UK?
I donāt know him or his stuff particularly well, but Iāve found him pretty āmehā up until now.
Mind remains open though.
Heās not the funniest comic, thatās for sure, but I find him very charming and pleasant. Knows his onions when it comes to football too.
The Golazzo podcast on Zemanās good.
Find these proactive coaches who win fuck all absolutely fascinating. Bielsaās another. Sarriās won nowt yet. Sampaoli probably wonāt win much else at international or club level. All nutters. All brilliant.
anyone heard the Quickly Kevin of them going through Steve Bruceās books?
I had an idea for a football podcast that I will never put into action. Basically, just have a group of people (a comic, a journalist, an ex-player, others) commentate on a live game. They would be encouraged to deviate a bit, just be an alternative to the mundane commentary you have to endure from drab ex-pros. Not sure people would listen after the game has happened, but live could work. Would anybody actually listen to this, or do people prefer retrospective analysis?
Yeahā¦it was pretty goodā¦that guest comedian was much funnier than any of the others, though (cant remember his name)
Ivo Graham.
Yeah i like Josh Widdicombe but the others are irritating. The book is ridiculous though
