    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.

marshy1969 ,

breathe

love the podcast normally but please let the guests speak, kind of the point inviting them on

Andy Emmanuel ,

Really enjoy it......

Always look forward to The Whistleblowers podcast, have listened since the start and it`s a good listen. Martin Gritton talks well and provides an ex-Pros angle. Just wish it was a bit longer as it sometimes feels a bit rushed. Keep up the good work.......

Bj and the bear ,

Such a shame

Genuinely a funny and engaging podcast when Mark Webster hosted, now just a run of the mill bore-draw
