The Supersubs

We are two dudes who, like substitutes in a football match, have come on late into the game, but have tremendous passion for our clubs: Barcelona and Manchester United. With our background in different American sports, we believe we have a unique perspective to the numerous fan podcasts out in the media. Our podcast adds a dedicated American fan voice to the world's most beautiful game.
