Great podcast but not sure about host

Love this podcast, Caimohe, Simon, James etc are brilliant and insightful but really need new host. Tony is a great pundit but not a great host.

Mothy81 ,

Big fan of the writers but not the new host, sorry

Like the rebrand. Like the new name. Not a big fan of the new host. Only listening for The Athletic writers but can be tough getting through Tony’s patter
