Listening to that Shut-Up-Phil audio, all I could picture was Gareth Keenan.

If they replay Dog Chat or Murph's Country Pages then it won't be all bad.

Only caught Tuesday’s show now. Ken at the end with the soiling charge “roll the window down, I think I’m about to win the World Cup” was fantastic. Burst out laughing in the middle of the street cue some very strange looks!

My jaw dropped slightly to hear that journo say that she had found him more impressive as the tournament went on. Wasn't comfortable talking about his salary, either. Jumped the fence, baby, to quote Eamo.

Just let a loud laugh out on the dart.. few surprised looks

Murph was very passionate on the GAA championship structures, and I must say, it’s hard to disagree with what he says.

Two very early pods released in the last two days. They're really living the dream. Finishing up for the weekend on a Wednesday and get to talk about sport for a living.

Delighted for them, given I'm getting at the very least what I paid for, in any event.

Oh yeah definitely. My post was praising them not criticising.

Handball has been definitively overtaken by whinging as the third code in the GAA. What'll it be like when Eddie Brennan gets around to getting into it? My ears will be bleeding uncontrollably.

Really hoping for some Nick Krygios chat next week. This is the type of story that's right up their alley.

The Office/Phil Neville audiobed is fantastic.

Mark needs to lower the volume of the song, I couldn't hear a lot of the phil quotes. Could be my car stereo though. But great to see Phil Neville getting called out constantly on the show

Slight oddity (to me) in this week's football show. Richie mentioned overhearing discussions of the Women's World Cup "while getting a haircut." I always assumed guys like him just kept going with the razor up past their ears.

SC are the only people who made me have any kind of interest in the womens WC. Decent pod today, I like Richie as a Ken replacement.

thenightman

Wanting to see Phil Neville fail and having to live with his 'Brendan Rodgers lite' act forever more ignited my interest in the tournament. Plus, in fairness the England/USA match was very exciting and had a great atmosphere.

Oluwashina was good on the African Cup of Nations Friday.

No word of the lads filling in on Radio One over the summer.

Talk about timing

Richie's delivery of 'You're a moron' when talking about people being upset about Alex Morgan's celebration was fantastic.

Lazy fuppers like me prefer to let a barber sweep up the mess. I have a clippers, but you'd be finding wee hairs all over the place for ages after, no matter how careful I was.

Life hack: Cut your hair while standing in the bath. Sweep up the hairs with a dustpan and brush and wash the remainder down the sink. Problem solved. :cool:

I think Richie was making too big a deal about it tbh. I use a good bit of social media and it was the vast minority and pretty much zero football fans had a problem with the tea celebration. You'll always have a tiny minority on twitter looking for a reaction by being a contrarian, but why give them so much airtime? The only person who I saw complain about it was another female footballer, Lianne Sanderson. No England fans seemed to have a problem with it.
And I think Richie is letting the Americans a way with a bit, especially the Thailand game. Imagine Manchester United against Aldershot Town in the FA cup 3rd round and Alexis Sanchez celebrating united's 10th goal in the same way as Rapinoe. Would Richie be telling people that's a brilliant winning mentality? I think it's being a knobend, man or woman.

I was hoping USA would win the final, mostly because it annoyed a certain section of the USA population, but I can understand why anyone wouldn't support them. And for a guy who was giving out about how women are treated differently to men, he spend about 20 minutes focusing on the gender of the players rather than the actual game.

Thought Richie was trying too hard at times yesterday.

Despite their generally progressive coverage regarding the women's World Cup, they still spent half the time talking about a man.

there seems to be an awful lot more people giving out about people giving out about the celebration than there are actually giving out about the celebration in the first place.

But if your barnet is as tight as his can you not just shave it? I assumed the convenience of that was one of the main reasons why guys went for that look.

I go blade 1 all over, blade 0/wet shave is a bit too Mekon-ish. The tiny hairs produced by a 1 are a worse mess than longer hair clippings, IMHO.

Very strong interview today on the controversy in New Zealand rugby. The boys were on top form with their questioning and the NZ contributor was articulate and detailed in his responses.

one thing I couldn't be arsed with are self gratifying try hard emails from DIG or Ultimate Frisbee blah blah or any other crap like that

Exactly. People want to moan about people moaning. But no one is moaning so they moan anyway. :pac:

Interesting comments under the original tweet. I thought the interview so incredibly one sided against a person who essentially said 'all violence is bad'

Those Baseball commentators sounded like they were describing a dog on the pitch and not A HUGE F*CKING 7.1 EARTHQUAKE!!!!!!

Didn’t like it at all . Very witchhunty feel to the whole thing.
He plead guilty and the girl in question has stayed with him by all accounts .
She has forgiven him , why the hysteria ?

Don’t get the uncle Jim love, he was like a harmless taxi driver who wouldn’t shut up!!

I don't know why they bothered with a football podcast yesterday. I suppose Ken loves nothing more than speaking about Neymar so presumably that's an itch scratched!

Because there'd be plenty of whinging if they didn't. It's the off season, news is thin on the ground, especially with the lack of transfers so far this summer. lthough I enjoyed it, as I generally do when they have Oluwashina on. Maybe they're keeping their meagre store of football content for later in the week.

Ah I know, but for such a blockbuster weekend of sport, spending an entire pod on football when there was hardly anything happening seemed a bit unnecessary. Even Ken couldn't help but talk about the other sport!
