There has never been a footballer like Julian Dicks - a hard-as-nails bastard, set piece specialist with a peach of a left foot who played at full-back. And we'll never see another like him again, not at the highest levels of the game anyway.

Dicks was a West Ham United legend in the nineties, helping the London outfit reach the Premier League and creating some iconic memories at Upton Park. The Bristol-born defender was a tough nut who got into his fair share of scraps, but he also scored some cracking goals during his career, becoming the club's joint-18th all-time goalscorer during his career.

"The Hammer From Hell" had an ill-fated move to Liverpool in 1993 and an England call-up was always just out of reach, so in this episode of the podcast we ponder whether he reached his full potential as a footballer, what made him so unique as a player, and why he's the quintessential Brit.

The regular pod is finally back and there's loads to talk about both on and off the field. Liverpool continue their remarkable run, beating an unlucky West Ham who who should be pretty worried about the drop, City shake off their off-field concerns by beating Leicester, Chelsea get back to winning ways but can they keep it up to confirm their spot in the top 4? And what does Olivier Giroud have to do to get in the first team? Spurs meanwhile look to be in trouble while for the first time this season no-one has a bad word to say about Manchester United.

Mesmerising football, stunning goals, machine guns and guava-flavoured condoms - it can only be Faustino Asprilla! The former Newcastle United attacker arrived in the north east during a snowstorm in February 1996 wearing a fur coat just as the Magpies' title charge was about to come off the rails. 

In the third episode of the 90's Football Hall of Fame, we talk about his hypnotizing style of play, his famous performances against Liverpool and Barcelona, narco-football in his native Colombia, why he snubbed Darlington, and his love affair with guns.

A member of Nigeria's golden generation of the nineties, Daniel Amokachi became a cult figure at Everton after substituting himself onto the pitch during an FA Cup semi-final. The Nigerian striker was the first African to win the world's oldest cup competition when the Toffees beat Man United at Wembley in 1995.

Sam, Colm, Ant & Dec look at the Premier League table, see Liverpool are 22 points clear and wonder what it all means. Are Klopp's men really that much better than everyone else? How do the rest close the gap? Can they? Are they even the chasing pack any more? It's a fun pod for half the members of the team and slightly depressing for the others. Also Colm reveals himself to be the philistine we always knew he was.

Andrei Kanchelskis arrived to the Premier League in 1991 as a complete unknown, but left as a bit of a legend, wowing English crowds with his speed, ability and sunny demeanour. 

In the first episode of our new podcast - The 90's Football Hall of Fame - we delve into the Soviet winger's career at Man United and Everton, why he's such a typical 90's player (but at the same time, not), the strange circumstances surrounding his Old Trafford exit, and just how much fun he would be on a night out. 

At the end of the show, host Ste McGovern, Peter Henry and Ant Kelly vote on whether the Ukrainian is worthy of induction to our HOF, partake in a 90's quiz, and reveal our 90's Cult Hero of the week.

Liverpool obviously keep on winning in the league but thankfully gave us something new to talk about by drawing with Shrewsbury in the FA Cup! That means a replay but Klopp says he's not going, is he devaluing the competition? Ant says no but he would wouldn't he?

You'll be shocked to hear that Peter has a United rant ready to go but mainly, the chat is about how much work all the other clubs have to do if they're to have any chance of getting to Liverpool's level any time soon.

Winning machine Liverpool FC do what they do and the lad's salivatate, (Word of the Year 2020, get your money on now), over their man up top Bobby Firmino. Spurs look like they're going backwards and Troy Parrott needs to get out of there fast, Chelsea's young guns do the business, Aguero's unbelievable, De Bruyne's amazing and Mahrez isn't bad either as City wallop Villa and Man Utd trounce Norwich which was great until Ole ruined it.

Sam, Peter & Ant return for a new year and a new Football Faithful podcast. A LOT happened over the festive period but one thing stayed the same, Liverpool are still unbeaten and are still top of the league? Can anyone stop them? Can Ant say that they're going to win it out loud? The answer to both questions is probably no.

There's puns a-plenty in this Christmas Cracker of a Football Faithful Podcast. Liverpool didn't play in the league but remain 10 points clear and are now World Champions, City close the gap, Lamps puts Mou to the sword, Arteta and Ancelotti must be wondering what they've signed themselves up for and Utd are terrible again. Oh and some obvious and depressing PotW's, again.
