    Season 2, Episode 8 - Oleg Stocking

    Christmas is here and so NPLP, at the expense of Reeder’s Teasers (to Jack’s disappointment), gives your their footballers as Christmas items. The pod also welcomes on European football journalist Andy Brassell (Twitter: @andybrassell), who has written for the BBC and ESPN. Like Santa Claus, he whizzes us around France, Portugal, Spain and Italy to give us the lowdown before the winter break. There’s no such thing in the Premier League, though, and NPLP discusses a thrilling few days for England’s top-flight including a dramatic Manchester Derby. The New Year is fast approaching so the boys give their best moments of 2012 and what they are most looking forward to in 2013. We hope you have a good Christmas and we’ll return for the New Year on 16 January 2013.  Remember to send us your e-mails to: notpremierleagueproven@hotmail.co.uk You can also support NPLP via Twitter: @NPLP_Podcast or Facebook: NPLP Podcast.

    Season 2, Episode 7 - Spameritanlish

    A couple of new managers are in town, and so NPLP follows suit by installing Jack as their interim presenter (Bill has not been sacked, he was busy in Canterbury trying to learn how to be funny). Jack is joined by Sam and Dec and they make sense of all this weekend’s Premier League action. The pod also welcomes back on to the show ESPN’s Spanish correspondent Dermot Corrigan. He tells us whether he thinks the La Liga title race is over, players he’s been impressed with so far this season in Spain this season and he gives us the lowdown on the Andalucían sides (Sevilla, Betis and Malaga). After Joey Barton’s hilarious French accent, NPLP finds its most memorable footballers with foreign accents. And, find out who wins Reeder’s Teasers – a game based upon categories and their unique answers - in a “heavyweight clash” between Sam and Dec.

    Season 2, Episode 6 - You've Been Anti-Comebacked

    NPLP believes it has coined a new phrase – “The Anti-Comeback”. Have a listen to what it’s all about and the boys give you their favourite anti-comebacks. Serie A specialist Matt Barker (Twitter: @matthew_barker), who writes for magazines such as FourFourTwo and When Saturday Comes, is welcomed onto the show. He talks to the pod about the Rome Derby, Juventus’ push for the Champions League and Italy’s international side. Reeder’s Teasers – a game based upon categories and their unique answers – this week involves England caps. And finally, there’s the usual Premier League discussion including Manchester United’s “normal comeback” against Aston Villa. Just a note listeners: NPLP has moved from being a weekly to a 40 minute, fortnightly podcast.
