    Shocking revelations this week as the boys reveal that they both independently decided not to watch the second half of the Man City game because they wanted to mow their lawns instead. Once they’ve done that they talk about Arsenal finally dropping out of the title race and Southampton finally dropping out of the league.

    Gareth Dobson does his best impression of the Spurs team this week and disappears completely. He’s replaced by another lamb to the slaughter, comedian and Tottenham fan Stuart Laws. 

    The pair talk through the weekend’s action, starting with that game at St James’ Park and landing somewhere near the relegation battle. We also hear form football writer and Man Utd fan Sam Pilger who was at Wembley to see his team progress past an impressive Brighton.

    Watch Stu’s comedy special, ‘Stuart Laws is All In’ on YouTube now.

Agreed

I agree with MASxxx. Only listened to a couple of episodes, but with everyone talking over each other and presenters with similar voices, I had no idea who was who and what the hell they were talking about. Its one thing to have a few mates talking footy, but another to present a listenable and successful podcast. I'll keep listening for a few more episodes, if nothing changes.....I'm out. And by the way.....Come On You Spurs!

Blow the whistle on the interuptions.

Not a bad football podcast at all. It sneaked it's way into my regular downloads after I subscribed to the Man Utd Redcast, but I haven't deleted it yet despite being regularly frustrated by Mark Webster stuttering his way through the questions and then interupting his panel's answers. I really enjoy the Redcast and the Whistleblowers includes podcasters from the other team's shows giving a few new voices and opinions which is interesting - even if I'm always happiest when Eddie Nestor is on! Definitely worth a listen, especially if Mark can start to allow his guests to talk.
