auclair is p much always wrong anyway but i'd almost forgotten how insufferable he can be when his gooner tail is up

I was only half listening, what'd he say? besides that the 07/08 side was the best in recent memory.

auclair is good....a bit precious, not sure i entirely believe he likes everton that much

this new dude is a bit 'bantz' in a broadsheet sort of way

ugh noooooo it's this guy, he's here

idk about anyone else but usually when pressed into making extended small talk with males you try settle for whatever kind of fitba chatz, UNLESS you have the misfortune of finding this guy in which case you would rather talk about any and everything else

this guy you are the the absolute fucking pits

str8 closed the tab after the strident man city overratedzzzzzz speech, piss off

i mean at least sean ingle has enough about him to know he's a wanker

Product Description
Initially a blog filed for ESPN Soccernet, On The Road follows Daniel Harris as he travels around England and Europe watching the famous Man United anywhere but Old Trafford. Witty, stylish, intelligent and true, if you love football, and even if you don't, you'll love this.

literally are there any acceptable united fans

no

Fuck's sake, it is this guy. A treat best savoured tomorrow maybe. But I do love that literally the first thing Jacob Steinberg says to him is: "yeah, that's not the law though".

jimbo didnt seem much impressed either

i do quite like it when he gets peeved (usually at sweary lewdness or such), it really highlights the high level of his seemingly innocuous ringmastering

the previous episode with just rafa and steinberg was quite nice i thought, was wondering if only two guests wasnt the way forward until this new dull steamrollering studenty knobhead showed up

This was so bad. It's like waking up hungover on a couch after your mate's house party, and the guy there whom nobody knows is determined to carry on largeing it.

Excellent analysis by Daniel Harris about Hart. Good addition to the pod.

Also, think that there is massive bias against L'pool in this Pod. Or maybe it's just me.

comments are overwhelmingly positive, if you didn't already know guardian commenters are lower than rat fleas

i didn't close the window but i did skip through quite a few bits

so many vague unfalsifiable assertions, also the contrived HARDEST EPL MANAGER thing even brought richardson down a level

steinberg is good though, probably the best of the guardian's in-house people

broadsheet bantz dude is back, better than last time but he still managed to say that villa have spent 'very little money'

'pardieu'

banty glendinning

drogba 'the best big name player of all time...almost'

Taking this in just now; the heavyweights keeping bantzman well in check here. Ronay in particular showing some deceptive steel in the Walcott celebration row.

that should be big game xp

Lion Messi surely?

Awww, lay off the new guy. He's clearly got early game nerves. I bet JR was rubbish when he first started.

I enjoyed today's effort. <3 Fernando Duarte, he should be kinda crap but he's so irrepressible, it's great listening imo.

forgot to post about last week's return of tosser man, but suffice to say i must have looked quite the lunatic on the tube what with the pall of black rage descending over me every so often

he must be destroyed

particularly enjoyed barry and ronay admitting to the guilty pleasures of talksport

rafa comparing wenger's plight to something d'angelo once said about prince = next level

Yes! I only didn't post that the moment I heard it because I was running for a train at the time.

He is the man of the moment.

shame jimbo wasn't there for the d'angelo thing really, rafa might have got more change out of it than he did from baz and temp presenter

What was the last record or CD you bought?

I think it was Snoop Dogg's Payed Tha Cost To Be Da Boss. [Small Talk registers mild surprise at such gangsta-rap tendencies]. Well, I'm not sure if I'm a Crip or a Blood here, Small Talk, but for me Dr Dre was always the master and he's shown himself to be a true business man, etc, etc, etc. To the detriment of his music career, as it turns out.

I was massively disappointed at Sid Lowe revealing his iTunes last week

What's going on this week? JR appears to be close-mic'ed, there're unexplained pauses every so often, it's quite disorientating - producer Ben getting avant-garde by the sounds.

a fade-out in the slash fic bit, probably very wise

this seems to be acappella?

where is the late 90s channel 4 snowboarding show intro music

i dont give a shit about baby caitlin, fuck u lutz i mean putz

fat papist in denial glendenning needs to dry his eyes and talk fitba, except not about david moyes for a change

well if it isnt our old friend "imperial phase" turning up in convo re bale

I've definitely heard a sample from this place at least once before.

it's a shame that that dude didnt write the slashfic about someone less painfully unfunny than sid

wenger as prince was the greatest thing ever says guy who listens to podcasts three weeks out of date

ban sid lowe

How come Sid's the one who gets to be on every episode? Rafa gets to do Bundesliga about once a month, and today's was the first Ligue 1 for ages.

they can talk about spain all day but just not with sid lowe

sid's sort of a goon but i find his enthusiasm infectious. sorry

Sid's good. I like how he gets annoyed about having to always talk about Madrid and Barca, like he'd be getting on every week if all he had was the Celta Vigo inside line.

its more his periphrastic way of always saying theres a sense in which maybe just maybe theyre saying hang on a minute you know maybe this isnt quite the situation we thought it was going to have been etc etc

Sean Ingle being asked who he thinks will win QPR v Sunderland, and being completely unable to give a view
