Was Malaga's 1-0 win over Girona their best performance of the season? The Guiricast think quite possibly so. On this week's podcast, we try to brush over our 2-1 loss to Leganés on Saturday and get straight to talking excitedly about a great Malaga win at Girona on Tuesday - and talk less excitedly about Benkhemassa. We then try to look ahead to our Friday night game against Lugo, before realising that we don't really know anything about Lugo. Plus, we talk Maradona, Harry Potter FC V Game of Thrones FC, Ramon our new golden boy, how to drink pacharán and is Escassi Malaga's hardest player?

Málaga’s pilgrimage to Ponferrada doesn’t quite go to plan and ends with a red card each for Benkhemassa and Pellicer. We look back on our 1-1 draw away to Ponferradina and discuss Pellicer’s tactics, Pellicer’s subs and Pellicer being forced to walk through the streets of Málaga naked Game of Thrones-style. SHAME! Plus there is a lot of cucumber and mascot talk, as we look ahead to our game v Leganés and the growing following of the ‘Points mean Pacharán’ initiative (and the perils of putting lid-less pacharán in your fridge).

Málaga finally wear the fabled yellow third shirt and pick up 3 points whilst wearing it. It was a profitable day at Sabadell and we look back on how Málaga won with an unlikely goal from Iván Calero and another beautiful header from Pablo Chavarría. This week, we were also delighted to be joined by the most famous guiri in Ponferrada, Chris Pidgeon - the ultimate Ponferradina fan. He explains how a walk on the famous El Camino led to him becoming a Ponferradina fan and how that led to him cycling to away days around Spain; delivering speeches to the town alongside the players and mayor; and creating his own museum in his house...oh, and there is a little bit of a Ponferradina v Málaga preview too.

During Halloween week, Málaga have horrors of their own with a 3-1 loss to Mallorca followed by a 3-0 home loss to Espanyol. We discuss what went wrong over the past two games and there are some strong views on Pellicer from one of the Guiricast ensemble. Next up for Los Boquerones is Sabadell, which gives Matt the opportunity to talk about his favourite Spanish bank and make a lot of rubbish banking puns (see the title), as well as discussing Stoickhov, Sabadell’s Spanish/Scottish goalie and what Málaga need to do to improve.

Busy times at Málaga CF with two games this past week and another two games coming this week. We look back on a fruitful week for Los Boquerones with Málaga earning 4 points from 6 with an excellent win against Sporting Gijón and a hard-fought draw against Mirandés, after discussing the latest news on Al-Thani’s court case, the incoming rules against betting sponsorship in Spanish football and a brief update on fans at La Rosaleda. Our next game is against Real Mallorca and to discuss the game we were delighted to be joined by Alex Fitzpatrick of the independent Mallorca podcast Tornarem, where we cover expectations for the game, the burgeoning fortunes of Pablo Chavarría and ‘doing a Depor’.

It’s taken 5 games, but Málaga are back to drawing games again. This past weekend Málaga got away with a 0-0 draw against ten-man Las Palmas and we look back on what went wrong at La Rosaleda and why the home team may have been lucky to earn a point. Then it’s time to look ahead to the upcoming game at La Romareda, as we discuss our next game against Real Zaragoza. Expect Málaga being compared to faulty guns, frustrated cats and Stevie Wonder during this week’s podcast, as well as the usual news stuff discussing the latest on Al-Thani, Atlético Malagueño and Matt forcing a chat about Juanpi (again).

After two wins in two weeks, it was too good to be true for Málaga and they are brought crashing back to earth with a comprehensive 4-0 loss at the hands of Rayo Vallecano at Vallecas.

Two weeks and two wins. Easy. Alcorcón arrived at La Rosaleda for the first home game of the season and Málaga claimed another 3 points with another beauty of a goal, this week courtesy of Cristian. Alongside reviewing another great win, we also discuss the latest transfers, the ERE situation and 'Operation Craig', as well as previewing our upcoming game. Rayo Vallecano are up next and so we inevitably talk about their iconic shirts, Paco Jemez and whether Málaga can make it 3 wins in a row.

The first 3 points are on the board for Málaga, which of course leads to a happy podcast. We discuss what Málaga got right in the game against Castellón and we discuss that wonderful Ramón goal and his even more wonderful celebration. As well as celebrating the first win of the season, we look ahead to our upcoming game against Alcorcón (where Chris offers his usual views on the club), we run through all the latest transfer news, plus we decide that Málaga are a club of hipsters and also compare the non-stop action at the club to a gangster movie.
