Round 7 Preview

A fun, lighthearted, though detailed and in depth look at Premier League round 7 from the First Lady of world football and her two knowledgeable guests. Some excellent pronunciation of truly challenging names, off whose boot the goals are coming, off whose boot the players and managers are going, who is being acquired, the relegation favourites, something about "bursting cherries" whatever that may be, and useful guidance for all your football tipping needs. Also an informative segment on the revolving door that is currently the England national teams manager position. This position was recently vacated by a Mr Sam Allardyce who committed the deadly sin of "greed" (much to the chagrin of the FA) and paid the ultimate price. I'd be surprised if he could get regular work with any u/15 team in the country carrying out the orange quarters at half time after that show. Enjoyed the cast! However quite seriously I'd like to hear more about who's wearing the hot pair of gloves and stopping the goals. Dave Vitali 1/10/16.

Great analysis and insight

Lucy in particular brings both analytical insight and passion to the listener.
I love the fact that game summaries are published within a few hours of the games being played.
As for correct pronunciation of player names, all I can say is that this is axiomatically the right thing to do. Well done!
