  • Squad arrival videos, MOTM substitutes & watching football on holiday: The listeners' loves & hates

    Squad arrival videos, MOTM substitutes & watching football on holiday: The listeners' loves & hates
    Jul 17 2024
    Adam Hurrey, Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker entertain this month's listener entries for Mesut Haaland Dicks, as the Clichés faithful nominate their niche footballing fascinations and irritations. Among the selections are working out how embracing opposition players became friends, the mundane rise of the "squad arrivals" video, watching football in a bar on holiday, late substitutes getting the Player of the Match award, the decline of footballers' autographs and the recent phenomenon of players geeing up the crowd after winning a goal kick. Meanwhile, the Adjudication Panel assess the latest Euro 2024 reference in EastEnders and whether you can "slice" a penalty wide. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • The Adjudication Panel: Unhinged pre-match montages & Heartbreak vs Heartache (2024 edition)

    The Adjudication Panel: Unhinged pre-match montages & Heartbreak vs Heartache (2024 edition)
    Jul 15 2024
    Adam Hurrey is joined by Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker for the final Euro 2024 Adjudication Panel. The agenda includes: whether England's tournament failure was a "heartbreak" or "heartache", the Peak Montage moment of the pre-match coverage, the psychological pay-off of putting yourself through an opposition trophy lift, Chelsea's genre-revitalising marketing spiel for their new kit, a job advert for a VAR operator at Stockley Park and a quindecuple signing in League Two. Meanwhile, the panel strive for the technical definition of a player “popping it round the corner” to a teammate and decide the threshold for a "big money" transfer in 2024.

    The Adjudication Panel: From Talksport to NATO - a cultural review of England 2 Netherlands 1
    Jul 11 2024
    Adam Hurrey is joined by Charlie Eccleshare, David Walker and Nick Miller for the latest Euro 2024 Adjudication Panel. The agenda includes: a cultural review of England 2 Netherlands 1 (from Talksport to NATO via spoon-benders, chess grandmasters and The Killers), the true fan anthem of the Euros summer, a questionable chant for an international match and where Ollie Watkins now sits on the England clamour ranking. Meanwhile, the panel assess whether a Golden Boot winner scoring less than six goals can really be taken seriously and the big pre-season question: can an outswinging corner be described as "vicious"?

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.

Top notch content!

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

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.
