So we have to talk about them, it'll only go to their heads but our Gav and Martin have done it anyway, looking ahead to this weekends meeting with... some random club from just outside the region... at the Stadium of Light on Saturday.

What's the crack?

• They aren't Newcastle no matter how much they want to be, they aren't what we are to the mags either, they just exist in a permanent state of pointlessness.

• Parmos were invented by Italian Americans; this isn't discussed enough here. Look it up.

• Stockton has always had a smell that lingers and doesn't wash away; again not discussed anywhere near enough.

• How do we think the lads will perform against whoever plays for this lot? Is whoever their manager is decent or not? Has anyone paid any attention to them at all besides Craig Johns?

• Not really. The lads are actually quite thorough about the Boro but they shouldn't be in my opinion.

• All this and more! Ha'way the Lads!

Aye Régis Le Bris’ finally lost a league game in charge of the mighty Sunlun and the lads were utterly devastated and couldn't talk about it at all.

Not really.

What's the crack?

• We started a petition to ban international breaks but gave up 5 minutes later;

• This was always bound to happen; Gav and Chris set about telling themselves and everyone else that this was coming and while it was unlikely we were going to win everything… should we have won this?

• Anthony Patterson has conceded one goal (from an opposition player in open play) in about 8 hours of football so far this season but he's come in for some criticism here; is it justified?

• Dan Ballard didn't have his best game and the lads do point this out quite a bit too aye;

• How do we expect Reg to deal with this heading into a home fixture against our very distant cousins who we never think about at all?

• Lots of picking ourselves up and moving on and drawing lines and the like, but seriously we should probably just get over it if we want another shot at topping the table.

• ROMAINE MUNDLE IS STILL MINT JUST SAYING

• All this and more! Ha'way the Lads!

Right, we know anything might happen at any moment so our Gav and Martin have attempted a podcast recording regardless of that and the upcoming deadline day, looking ahead to Portsmouth away on Saturday and a potential injury blow for RLB.

What's the crack?

How are we feeling ahead of a busy weekend?

It appears Aji Alese has suffered another injury following the Burnley victory that is rumoured may keep him out for an estimated eight* weeks; if this is the case can Dan Ballard pick up where he left off?

*RLB confirmed injury on Thursday but estimation is currently 3-4 weeks

How do we think RLB will approach Pompey and will they prove more of a challenge than our recent opponents?

What are Portsmouth up to anyway since we last met? Do they have pitch drainage yet? Is Luke O'Nien planning further vengeance against the locals?

The lads try to work out when they'll next be recording…

All this and more! Ha'way the Lads!
