What a random season this is becoming. After many sole blames, we have yet another sole win week, this time for Justin. 

This weeks show almost almost didnt make it out due to technical difficulties, which would have spared Justin the shame of getting the quiz question wrong. He made up for by bringing an extra quiz challange, which isn't the only new segment!

This week the boys debate the merits of spirograph vs etch a sketch, we ask whether Watford are the new leicester and Nathan proves that his pronunciation of English towns is Just as bad as his pronunciation of foreign towns.

This week, we dissect an ugly sole-win for Nathan's Nathan bet, and discuss how the FBC acca last week was both influenced by and had an influence on the early-season managerial merry-go-round. That, plus a tricky nationalities round in the quiz, and news of Big Ronny's move up to the board room. 

Let's face it, though. It all pales in comparison to the news of SAIDO SCORING.

SOLE BLAME.......AGAIN! For the second time in three weeks the lads miss out on the jackpot by one result. Sorry. We discuss a shed load of stuff....including the Man City Documentary. Mainly focusing on Peps frequent use of the word "guys" and his ability to move magnets on a whiteboard with aggressive tenancies.  

Please do leave us a review on itunes if you like what you hear.

This week, we make the most of Johnno's return from the hotel WiFi to discuss our predictions for the coming season, as well as running the rule on tips past and present as we head into our third acca of the season. That, plus apologies (sincere and insincere), and a dastardly Mexican-themed quiz from David Macdonald, make this week's Football Bet Club.

As we return with our first set of bets we think about how you pick without form to go on, we discuss some of the recent signings and managerial changes and Justin shows complete and utter ignorance of all things Ebbsfleet.

EVERY SINGLE one of our shows has a reference to Champ 01/02 so Justin and I chat for a (very long) about the best game ever to be invented. Best moments, worst moments and the hardest job of all, choosing a best 11\. It all goes well, but i fear we have made one huge omission. 

For info on the game including a free download go to https://www.champman0102.co.uk/ ( these are the proper experts).

its that time that comes only once every four years where we all become giddy as schoolgirls at the thought of the oncoming festival of football that is the world cup. in this special we speculate over winners, scorers, teams to dissapoint and teams to surprise as well as looking back at some of our favourite moments from the world Cup from including names like Voller, Rijkaard, Baggio, Schillaci, Linekar, Oliseh, Zubizaretta, Milla, Heguita and many many more

The Wildcard joins Nathan, Johnno and Justin for an end of season review which is heavy in both content and laughs. The boys discuss the Bet of the Year, Worst Bet of the Year and Moment of the Season. A belter so its well worth sticking with!

The end of season celebration will be at the Good Samaritans Pub in Whitechapel from 7.30pm to watch the Champions League Final. All are welcome.

Stay tuned for a World Cup Episode and an additional Champ Man 01/02 episode in the summer months. 

Thanks for all your support over the past year.

The FBC

Though last week's was confusingly called episode number 97, this week's FBC offering is actually number 96 in our catalogue. We crown Greg the 2017-8 champion, discuss (and contest) the need for a 'pasillo', before looking ahead to a week of fixtures that could see us waltz off with a healthy profit into the summer sunshine. Yeah, right.
