In this episode of the Pilgrims Podcast, hosts Archie, Tom, Chris, and special guest Drew Savage start with a discussion of a much-improved performance at Sunderland. They analyse the line-up changes, half-time insights, and the impact (and absence) of key players. There is cautious optimism about the team's potential—even if it still does seem too late—and Tom forgets to use the phrase Ogbgasm to describe a thrilling finish.

Part Two inevitably dives into a deeply challenging week, drawing on the leadership style of Miron Muslic and the implications of player mentality on team performance, especially following the car crash that was Burnley. Morgan someone also gets a mention, as does the club’s increased commitment to communications in difficult times. They explore the difficulties in selling players at their peak, the need for strategic foresight in recruitment, and the urgency and difficulty of filling gaps during a busy January.

Finally, thoughts turn to potential incomings, the relative luxury of a week’s time on the grass for the new Head Coach, and another must-win—or must-perform?—against West Brom.

Keep it Green.
