Mr.Bannister ,

Always look forward to a new episode!

A great relationship between the three of them. Always look forward to listening to this. I love seeing famous footballers like them outside of football just having a laugh. Overall a great podcast,highly recommend this.

Boring & Repetitive

Lineker & Shearer are well past their sell date. If it was just Richards it would be ok. Boring & repetitive.

Sir Daz ,

Shocked

I have been listening to these guys since January and have thoroughly enjoyed their analysis and knowledge of the game. But what I witnessed on Saturday (FA cup final) was shocking, they interviewed Eric Ten Hag and instead of focusing on the game and the surprising result and performance, they very quickly turned on Eric and tried many times to make it all about his possible sacking and poor season when it should have been all about the game and the occasion. They showed no respect and became as low as the rest of the media
