  • Why James Graham from The Twilight Sad shaved his head after losing a game

    This week, James Graham from The Twilight Sad joins Piers and Woody to talk Aberdeen, loyalty and full circle moments. A lifelong Dons fan who grew up in Glasgow, James recently moved back to Aberdeen for his family and for football, with the club now woven even deeper into his life.

    He reflects on Aberdeen’s Scottish Cup win last year, the heartbreak of a previous final that saw him shave his hair off, and how going to games has taken on a completely new meaning now he’s taking his two young lads along.

    We also hear about Woody and Piers' recent trip to watch (some of) Orient v Argyle.

  • Eating dinner in a football fish tank, with Andy Bush

    This week, Andy Bush joins Piers and Woody.

  • The worst away day ever? With Joey Page

    This week, comedian and Spurs fan Joey Page joins Piers and Woody for one of the wildest Away Days yet. Joey is the other half of the Got A Problem Mate podcast and arrives with what might be the worst away day story we have ever heard, a truly hellish trip to Madrid via Zaragoza that goes rapidly downhill.

    Thankfully, there is balance too. Joey relives one of his best football trips, travelling to the Euros in Germany in a camper van with his mates, and shares a brilliantly filthy coach journey up to Newcastle.
