The Football Pubcast's posts

This week’s Football Pubcast was brought to you in matching knitwear and high spirits as Mike & Jim failed to communicate on their wardrobe and Stuart Hoare said his goodbyes for 2012. It was almost a full house and the Pubcasters were in extremely high spirits as they discussed…

With four out of the five lads hungover (on a Wednesday) and the other missing a tooth, there were sore heads all around at this week’s Pubcast. If anything was going to pick the guys up though, it was a couple of pints and some football chat.

The boys were back flush with excitement at the morning’s news that yet another Chelsea manager’s career had gone down the drain – that and quality of the toilets in our local boozer. With Mike in the chair downing whisky like an alcoholic, the topics of conversation flowed from overhead kicks to Underhill tackles, via the surreal image of Arsene Wenger being led upstairs on a leash.

The Pubcaster's welcomed back an old friend and introduced a new one this week but, like the 1999 Champions League final, all the excitement didn't happen until the last few minutes.

Unlike the 1999 Champions League final; this was because of a low battery on the recording device but, aside from that, this was a stellar show. There was controversy, there was comedy and, more than anything, there was the absolute crap that you know and love. The topics covered include...

• Billy Wright's 50s WAG

• Berbatov & Ruiz living in luxury in Fulham

• Little Pea leaves Villa shell-shocked

• Everybody loves Steve Evans...

• Everybody loves Leeds United...

• West Ham United: 2nd best team in London

• Zaha for England

• Sterling: 3 kids but too young for Walkabout

• No mush-room in the top 9 for Montpellier

• Exciting debate - Trivia vs Information

• Franchise Scum vs. Wimbledon

• Socceroos coach should be on his Behich

• David Luiz in tears

• Bloody Brazilians

• Lads of the week

• Bebeto's baby in Under 20 Squad

• Liverpool's miniature forwards

• Q&A with Stevie G

• Edgar "F***ing" Davids

• Sam Hamilton/Charly Bennet update

• + all the usual nonsense

#Football #PremierLeague #FACup #Championship #League1 #League2

The Pubcasters were in a slightly muted, and largely self-inflicted, mood this week as they discussed what Mike branded as "a quiet week in football". But even with the odds stacked against them (hangovers, tiredness, no Stuart Hoare) they still managed to pull it out of the bag and deliver their normal mix of jolity, jokes and jibes. The topics under discussion included:

• Arsenal bottling it at Old Trafford

• A genuinely naughty "boy"

• Mancini's fury as City struggle in Europe

• FA Cup Update - did Hastings make it through? Will it be AFC Wimbledon vs. MK Dons?

• Is Falcao finished?

• Stone Cold Charlie Austin's "stunning" run of form

• Crystal Palace top the Championship - Sean gets altitude sickness

• Modest Cristiano plays down his Ballon D'or chances...

• Did Mancini really say Balotelli wasn't great?

• Big Sam's misplaced phone

• The next Scotland manager

• Melbourne Heart Update

• And lots more…

After a very eventful week in the footballing world and a Super Sunday with more talking points than you could shake a stick at, the boys headed down to Henry’s for the usual routine. This week saw a really good mix of chat, piss taking and serious debate between Dan, Jim, Sean and Jerome. There was also a very valuable lesson learnt today (as you can see from the show photo), that if any of the guys were ever thinking of soiling themselves, they wouldn’t be allowed in Henry’s! Good to know! Also on this week’s show:

• Mark Clattenburg

This week, one of the Pubcast team fulfils a lifelong ambition live on the show… finally completing a Panini sticker album. A momentous occasion, we’re sure you’ll all agree. Not that the past week’s football has been any less exciting – so the boys had plenty to discuss as always

WARNING: This week someone other than Jim was trusted with recording the show. They failed. Unfortunately this means as a one-off there may be a few seconds of repeats during the show; regular listeners will be used to us repeating ourselves, to everyone else we apologise

The boys were in high spirits as they sojourned to the pub to discuss the week’s footballing action, resulting in some truly debatable mum-based banter and some downright awful pun-based gags.

When they weren’t throwing sailor themed witticisms at Dan Silver, the topics of discussion were:

• Villa into Room 101

• To dive or not to dive?

• The pies at Kidderminster

This week saw the Football Pubcast reach a huge milestone, the 100th Episode! Who’d have thought that when Simon Head first recruited a band of misfits to chat about all things football, the show would come this far! A special mention has to go to all of the listeners who’ve given the boys a reason to keep recording every week (and given them an excuse to go to the pub)! On this week’s show there was not only a full squad out but also a cameo from the Godfather himself. After the initial centenary celebrations were over, the boys sat down to discuss the week’s football including; the England squad for the upcoming qualifiers, worst injuries in football, a surprise package from the guys at FFDU and much much more…..

• Jim’s history lesson

• Glossop North End

• Stand out and stand down performances of the week

• Gareth Bale – deliberate diver or massive wimp?

• Wilfred Zaha to a big club in January?

• Redknapp to QPR?
