Pretty good

In third [;ace behind Football Weekly and the Totally Football Show. Gab all to often interrupts guests and has limited knowledge outside Premier League, Italian League and internationals. He needs to spread his wings a bit
Enjoyed it for a few weeks, but then...

Ah, Alyson Rudd. Your inability to separate Newcastle’s progress on the pitch from their ownership and just flat out dismiss their season as ‘sportswashing’ is not the kind of insight I’d like to get from a football podcast. Thanks, but when there are many other podcasts that offer a more nuanced balance, even with Hugh, Gregor, Gabriele
Sometimes informative, often annoying
2022-12-11
The supposed host has a lot to say and frequently talks over the more interesting and better known participants. Annoying. So it tends to be more of a round table than a panel directed by a host, as in the cases of the Guardian Football Weekly and the Totally Football Show.
Annoyingly woke

Love the football analyses. Since Hugh has joined it has become annoyingly woke. Just stick to the football if you can’t have views which represent the majority view, or even a differing opinion on BLM, otherwise it’s just everyone nodding in agreement. Feel Hugh dominates the show too much. Saying that I listen to the episodes twice a week as the football analyses is excellent and the banter is reasonable too. It’s good but feel it could be so much better. Feel it would benefit from having other items writers on the pod; rod liddle, tony cascarino just to keep it more fresh.
