The questions include: Exotically named offspring of Barclays-era flops, Boxing Day belters, Andy Gray’s imaginary conversations, guess the Christmas goalscorer from the commentary, geriatric South American strike partnerships, Match of the Day voiceover men, infuriating player career paths and, of course, Happy Hunting Grounds.

  • Cliches do Mesut Haaland Dicks: Adam, Charlie & Dave’s footballing loves & hates

    Cliches do Mesut Haaland Dicks: Adam, Charlie & Dave’s footballing loves & hates
    Dec 19 2024
    In a special edition of Mesut Haaland Dicks, the Clichés team select some of their ultimate footballing fascinations and irritations. Among Adam, Charlie and Dave's selections are the enduring fallacy of relegation-threatened teams “fighting for their lives”, the theory behind the greatest lower-body aesthetic in football history, the haggard goalnets of midweek 5-a-side and the childish envy when new signings score on their debuts for your team's rivals. Meanwhile, the Adjudication Panel admire a strong end to 2024 for Richard Keys' blog and reveal the real scandal behind the rebooted European Super League concept.

    The blip-to-crisis benchmark, Comedy Central defending & Australian red card music
    Dec 17 2024
    Adam Hurrey is joined on the Adjudication Panel by Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker. On the agenda: a new term for slapstick defending, a historic day for Premier League manager sackings, more accidentally operatic BBC commentary, some dubious red-card stadium music in Australia and much more. Meanwhile, the panel decide when Manchester City's "blip" became a "slump" and then a full-blown "crisis" and discuss the reported successors to Gary Lineker on Match of the Day.

Top notch content!

Great to have the pod back, and with an unchanged lineup! New listeners in for a treat

Quality Podcast

What's not to like? I'm glad they've restarted on here, I've been a long time listener on Google Podcasts... for my sins.

Amazing to have the pod back

great to have an unchanged adjudication panel- but the new cover doesn’t look great. Loving it so far.
