Why did he love going round to Brian Clough’s to help with the gardening?

Great episode and laugh out loud

Another brilliant episode with some great fan questions. Best chant to a footballer ever? Liverpool fans chanting to Al during his very brief spell as Newcastle manager 'You're better off on the telly' And I'm an Everton fan.

An excellent listen

This doing for football what TopGear did for cars.
There doesn’t seem to be a dull moment when you listen. Good mix of football and banter between three people who seem to like each other’s company.
