I think he's a good presenter but I've noticed he's pretty snide about LFC at times.

The throwback season reviews have been great. Michael Cox is always a good listen.

He has his own podcast through The Athletic called Zonal Marking, it's free on podcast apps.

The European crew doing a CL retro show on BT Sport now. Best football pundits going by a country mile.

It's superb. There is one on tonight.

Is it wrong to hope that this format lasts long enough for them to get to the CL 2004/05 season?

11 June.

11 June.

Can't wait, BT Sport showed our run in 2005 and that whole run was incredible, the obvious games like Olympiakos, Chelsea and the final were terrific but the Juventus game was incredible, it's not remembered that we battered them in the first half at Anfield (like we did Barcelona in 2007) and Luis Garcia's goal still looked as good as it did back then. It's often forgotten how important he was in the knockouts, just a shame he didn't cap it in the final

I'd forgotten the injuries we had as well, Carson and Kirkland playing games, Cisse breaking his leg, Luis Garcia pulling up against Monaco and Gerrard and Alonso not being available in some of the knockout games.

Mad run.

Snide might be OTT because it's always harmless really, I just get the impression he's not a lover of LFC at all as he's quick to get a dig in whenever possible, but that's fine, it's probably partly his general style and partly his age with us dominating the 80's, there's no doubt he's a good presenter and it doesn't take away from the show.

He'll have a 'go' at any team as long as there's a pun involved, usually fantastic. I remember Javier Hernandez scored an equalizer to make it 1-1 in Anfield and Jimbo said "Little pea spoils Liverpool's clean sheet", loved that one.

Think he does it to every team really. We can't expect Liverpool to be given love by everyone, it's never malicious when he does his jokes and puns, and he does it to all other clubs just as much.

Their PL review next Monday is 2000/01 so should be a good listen. Think we did OK that season.

Loved that season, aside from the Mancs winning it of course. Our treble, Ipswich tearing up the league and that Leeds side was fantastic too.

That was fantastic

Big transfer news this morning: Totally Football to the Athletic (fee not disclosed). It's basically the same, but if you're an Athletic subscriber you don't have to hear the ads from a certain bookie.

The Athletic's podcast app is painful though.

bradders1011 · « **Reply #135 on:** June 15, 2020, 05:01:53 pm »

Yeah I'd prefer a password-protected RSS feed to add to my podcast app, if possible. No more insufferable adverts for that bookies is a major bonus.

Remember that bit in The Simpsons where Bart goes for an earring, every other shop in the mall is a Starbucks and he's told to choose one quickly because "in 5 minutes this place is becoming a Starbucks?"

That, but with the Athletic and sports journalism.

Can't be as bad as the one on Football Weekly that said our league title would be tarnished by how bad the women's team have been.

I like the Totally Football show but its become pretty unbearable recently between the ads and the promotions for its other shows etc. Its an ad, then about 3 minutes of talking then a promotion for the Football league show, then a few more minutes, then talking about the Athletic....

Good stuff. The adverts are becoming more invasive but it's worth putting up with for what's got to be the best all-star combination of pundits that you can get in football content.

Nuts how much has gone under The Athletic's banner though. The very good Tifo Podcast has gone from being sponsored by to being part of The Athletic also. I'm not sure whether that's a good thing or not.

Is the PaddyPower insert going down to a short monologue from Lee a sign of it being phased out?

I've long thought Anka was awful and am glad to read you say what I think. He tries far too hard. He often sounds like he's talking to a child.

I've noticed James uses similar jokes/puns on here to when he does BT sports shows. Always stop and confuse myself thinking "heard that one before!"

Don't think so. The actual football conversation should be <1 hr anyway, which can be challenging.

PS People have preferences, of course, but not sure what there's not to like about Carl to be honest.
