The Football Pubcast's posts

It was a sad Football Pubcast today (if you were Mike anyway, everyone else was in a chipper mood) as the boys reacted to the massive news that Sir Alex Ferguson was retiring. There were opinions on his career, his replacement and his club’s future and plenty of other chat on the issues surrounding his departure.

But it wasn’t all Fergie talk, as Mike, Dan, Andy and Jerome got together to discuss the excitement of the Football League, a few naughty boys and the big London derby that could decide who plays Champions League football next season. Plus

• Pears in Sweden

• Stephen Mbia tweets

• Paddy Crerand rants

• Bale wins the FWA Award

• Who last beat Barca home and away in Europe?

• Steve Fletcher retires

• Newport return to the Football League

• RIP Ivan Turina

• And a load more shite…

Talk about your fiery shows, the Pubcasters were in a fighting mood on show #128 and took it out on each other. Jim vs. Dan, Jim vs. Andy, Jim vs. his own shadow…

But it was more than just a squabbly show as Stuart Hoare made his return to discuss QPR’s demise, Andy bemoaned Brentford’s woes and all the lads got excited about all the end of season fun…

• PFA Awards and Reginald D Hunter

• Deco fails a drug test

• Beckham sent off

• Dortmund reach the Champions League Final

• ITV cut off Jose

• Luis Suarez: The Pizza

• Mad Russian Linesmen

• Carra joins Sky and G-Nev pays the Bury players

• Relegation and Promotion chat throughout the leagues

• Melbourne Heart reject buy out

• And a load more s***e

It’s been a lively week but it was the lowest turnout in Pubcast history as Mike and Andy made the lonely trek to Henry Ads to discuss title wins, relegation strugglers, European prospects and the occasional act of cannibalism. Despite it effectively being a recorded date the boys were able to discuss a lot, including…

• Title win by Man…sfield Town…and some other team…

• Bayern drub Barca

• Champions League/Relegation in the Premier League

• League One goes down to the final weekend

• Gillingham win League Two

• Crowd trouble at Kidderminster

• Some hungry Uruguayan bloke…

• A-League Grand Final

• Cravat Nick meets El-Hadji Diouf

• And plenty more…

You may or may not have noticed that it can be rather easy to wind up Dan Silver, especially when it comes to Spurs. This week Mike and Andy took great pleasure in doing so by recounting a much tweeted joke following Cardiff’s promotion.

It wasn’t all Dan-baiting though, and the lads found time to discuss all the professional leagues in England and even more…

• A run down of the Premier League, Championship, League One & League Two

• Crowd trouble at Newcastle, Millwall and Brentford

• The success of the Pubcast’s “Punch a Horse” campaign

• Andy Carroll’s challenges

• Excitement at Sheff Utd/Brentford & the Scottish Cup semis

• Jim Staples bets on Port Vale

• Rangers fan refutes our claims of their demise

• A-League Grand Final time

• A crazy Bulgarian manager

• A terrible penalty in Brazil

• Gary Neville: Bonafide A-Lister

• And much, much, much more

Mike, Dan, Jerome and Andy were blessed with an appearance from former host Jim Staples for the latest show, and he even brought a prize down for a Football Pubcast Competition! Listen to the show for details and how to win and what you’ll get.

It was a lively week with plenty to discuss, a lot of banter and even a bit of politics. With title wins, promotion, points deductions and thunderbastards its definitely not one to miss out on…

The Pubcasters were in a fairly metrosexual mood this week, with politics on the agenda and a certain Cockney newboy enjoying a serving of carrot and hummus during the show…As well as Connor, regulars Mike, Dan, Jerome and Andy were in fine voice and with plenty to discuss after the bank holiday they were talking about:

• Paolo Di Canio joining Sunderland

• Neil “Colin” Warnock leaving Leeds

• A big weekend in the Premier League, Football League and FA Cup

• Champions League fall out

• Two naughty Englishmen in France

• Carlos Tevez pleads guilty

• Cravat Nick’s missus encounters another footballer

• Melbourne Heart’s season comes to an end

• And plenty more of the usual loveable banter

After the debacle that was last week’s show the boys are back (and on time) this week with a belter of a show. After the drubbing of San Marino and the underwhelming draw with Montenegro it was of course England that were the subject of the most heated debate, with Mike, Dan and Andy all weighing in with differing opinions. But it wasn’t just the Three Lions, also under debate were:

• Scotland are worse than San Marino

• Bale misfires for Wales

• Northern Ireland and the crafty Israel coach

• A look at qualifying elsewhere in the world

• Naughty Luis Suarez

• Brentford get out and push

• Naughty Neville Neville

• Van Wolfswinkel to Norwich

• Melbourne Heart update

• New(ish) iTunes reviews!

• And a whole host of fun…

It was a delayed Pubcast this week (apologies once again) but Dan, a very sleepy Mike and new boy Connor headed down to a slightly different pub for a good old-fashioned debate. There was plenty to discuss, from bad tackles to Greek politics, plus listen out for more user comments and we’ll be back next week, on time and in full flow!

#PremierLeague #Championship #LeagueOne #LeagueTwo #Football

It was another joyous week on the Pubcast as everyone’s favourite Boltonian Nick joined Mike, Dan and Jerome armed with more stories about his and his wife’s experiences of footballing characters. Thankfully this time there were no sexual overtures (at least not for his wife) but as always the stories provided more than a few laughs.

Elsewhere there were dodgy look-alikes, internet trolls and, a pesky rodent or two, as well as…

An unsurprising lack of Tottenham talk after the weekend’s results

The legend that is Curtis Woodhouse

A very sad haircut

A wonder goal from…Djimi Traore!?

Tunnelling Turks in Germany

Naughty Boys galore

RIP Tony Gubba

And much, much more…

After last week’s Bale-athon of a show you’ll be happy to know that the simian Welsh wonder barely gets a mention this week…in fact legendary male model Peter Beardsley received more mentions throughout the show.

But of course there was a far bigger red coloured issue that dominated proceedings – and that can be red for the shirt colour, card colour or the colour of Sir Alex’s face (and finger) as he berated the referee. Mike, Dan, Jerome, Andy and Jim kept things lively (and as varied as possible) so listen out for:

Champions League fall out and THAT red card decision
