Thank You David Moyes
Big Dave, Richie and Gary convene to deliver a fairly honest and balanced obituary for David Moyes reign as West Ham manager. An honest recount of his flaws but an enormous debt of gratitude to a man who has given us some amazing memories and a quick discussion as well as to what we think his future holds and what ours may look like.

Let's just forget Palace happened
This episode does what it says on the tin. Big Dave and Rich try to forget Palace happened but briefly discuss it (spoiler alert for those who don't want goal updates from the Brighton v Man City game) before discussing who should be the next manager from the early runners. Then a surprisingly upbeat part 2 preview looking ahead to Liverpool and the race for Conference League qualification.

End of an era...
Big Dave and Gary sacrifice their Friday night to look back over the night 11 hero's came up short against a very good Bayer team and the most incompetent Spaniard since Manuel left Fawlty Towers. Then in part 2, a look ahead to Sunday's trip to Croydon, where energy levels are expected to match those of the average Spanish referee.

Mountain Climbing in a pair of Crocs!
Big Dave, Richie and Gary look back over a 2-0 loss to Fulham and possibly the final nail in the coffin of any realistic hopes for European qualification next season. Then in part 2, Leverkusen! What lessons can we learn from the first leg, how should we prepare for the second leg and how much Currywurst can one man eat during a game of football.
But most importantly, our best wishes to George Earthy for a full and speedy recovery.

Wolves in Sheeps Clothing
Big Dave, Richie and Gary look back over Wolves and an enjoyable trip to the West Midlands. A David Moyes disaster class, a David Moyes master class and finally David Moyes give VAR a class. Then a look forward to Leverkusen and will we line up like we started against Wolve or how we finished it? Can we be optimistic or should we be pessimistic? The best case scenario and the worst case scenario? What to do in Leverkusen and how good is the Currywurst.
We covered all the big questions.

Useless Abusers
Big Dave, Richie and Gary reconvene to spend part 1 looking ahead to Wolves. Then in Part 2 the discussion turns to what counts as abuse and what lays ahead for Kalvin Phillips before turning to season ticket renewals and the problems currently lying in football governance.
