    We Debate The Greatest RETRO Football Kits Of All Time - “ I Remember CRYING Over That Shirt..."

    On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids and Chris dive headfirst into one of football’s most nostalgic — and surprisingly controversial — topics: kits. From childhood shirt disasters and knock-off classics to the shirts that made entire generations fall in love with the game, the lads break down what makes a kit truly iconic. Crouchy shares first-hand memories of his earliest football strips (including one that didn’t survive warm-ups), while the boys debate whether people genuinely look better in football shirts, which kits should never make a comeback, and where wearing a jersey in public officially becomes unacceptable behaviour. There’s also chat about vintage gold, England shirts in everyday life, the unspoken rules footballers live by, and a reminder that some fashion trends really were best left in the past. Plus, a detour into Mila Kunis, Watford shirts, and why manifesting football dreams might actually work… Let us know in the comments: What’s the greatest football kit of all time — and would you wear it on a night out? 00:00 – Subscribe plea and opening chaos 01:10 – Birthday chat and unexpected messages 03:05 – “HBD” texts and why the game’s gone 04:00 – Another Watford manager sacked 05:00 – Could the podcast actually manage Watford? 06:30 – Training with Macclesfield and FA Cup buzz 07:55 – Sponsoring walk-out jackets on live TV 09:10 – The Mila Kunis interview resurfaces 10:40 – Giving Ashton Kutcher a Watford shirt 12:50 – Are people hotter in football kits? 16:00 – First ever football kits (and ruining them) 18:45 – Knock-off shirts and iron-on badges 21:30 – Being “given” better kits as a kid 24:00 – Arsenal schoolboy days and iconic kits 26:10 – Chelsea kits everyone wanted 28:30 – The worst kits of the 90s 31:00 – Wearing football shirts on a night out 33:20 – Vintage kits as fashion statements 35:45 – Iconic England kits and forgotten classics 38:10 – Can footballers wear kits casually? 41:00 – Penalty heartbreak memories and iconic shirts 44:10 – Legendary teams making kits iconic 47:00 – Should England ever have a shirt sponsor? 50:00 – Injury-time chaos and modern football debates 53:30 – Extra time, late goals and “Fergie time” 56:30 – Weekend results and prediction league drama 59:30 – Messages and closing banter This episode is sponsored by The AA, the UK’s No.1 breakdown provider.

    CLASSIC CLIPS: Gary Oldman On What Modern Football Took Away from Manchester United & Critiquing THAT Rooney Advert

    FROM THE VAULT: In this clip, Gary Oldman opens up about his lifelong love for Manchester United — from being mesmerised by George Best as a kid to watching the modern game lose its sense of loyalty and identity. The Oscar winner reflects on the era of the first XI, players who stayed for decades, and why today’s constant churn has changed the relationship between fans and clubs. He also shares why texting Sir Alex Ferguson still feels surreal, and critique's that infamous Casillero del Diablo advert starring Wayne Rooney; Ryan Giggs and Patrick Evra... and the Oscar goes to who?

    Marcus Mumford on Scoring Past Mourinho, Noel Gallagher’s BRUTAL Advice & Mid-Gig Side Quests

    On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids, and Chris are joined by the one and only Marcus Mumford for a wide-ranging, hilarious, and surprisingly football-obsessed chat. From charity matches and penalty shootouts with José Mourinho, to growing up as a die-hard AFC Wimbledon fan, Marcus opens up on how deeply football is woven into his life and music. The lads dive into unforgettable stories from the Grenfell charity match, playing alongside Premier League legends, and why grassroots football still hits harder than the modern game. Marcus also lifts the lid on life at the very top of music — from Glastonbury and Hyde Park to playing at the White House, meeting Barack Obama, and getting a no-nonsense songwriting pep talk from Noel Gallagher. There’s chaos too, as Crouchy’s Spanish guitar challenge gathers pace, gigs are planned (and refused) around England kick-offs, and Marcus explains why hearing his music on Match of the Day was a bigger moment than almost anything else. Music, football, side quests, and a proper debate about whether the game really has gone — this one has it all. 00:00 – Subscribe song, intro & opening chaos 02:15 – Sid’s holiday, previous guests & missing episodes 05:10 – Guitar chat, New Year resolutions & festival fantasies 08:40 – Kasabian, Finsbury Park & learning guitar late in life 11:55 – Marcus Mumford joins the podcast 14:30 – Grenfell charity match & scoring past José Mourinho 19:05 – Visiting Mourinho at home & the “pantomime villain” role 23:10 – Playing with football legends 27:55 – New album Prizefighter & why it’s his favourite record 32:40 – Hyde Park, Glastonbury & refusing to gig during England games 37:10 – AFC Wimbledon, grassroots football & fan ownership 41:45 – Football chants, Match of the Day & music in stadiums 46:20 – Noel Gallagher’s brutal songwriting advice 50:05 – Touring chaos, Mexico gigs & running into the sea mid-show 54:30 – “Games Gone”, VAR & what football has lost 57:10 – Chris serenades Marcus Mumford as a farewell 58:05 – Paddy Power segment 01:02:40 – Listener messages 01:08:20 – Final thoughts, teasers & episode wrap-up This episode is sponsored by The AA, the UK’s No.1 breakdown provider.

    “If I’d gone to Istanbul, none of this happens!” - John Bishop on Liverpool story Hollywood loved

    On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete and Chris are holed up in a fancy hotel room ahead of a Hollywood-style chat with none other than John Bishop. From ball boy chaos at Watford to AFCON towel-gate madness, the lads kick things off with some classic football nonsense before diving into an incredible life story. John opens up about the sliding doors moment that changed everything - missing Istanbul, walking away from a secure job, and somehow ending up with a Hollywood film based on his life, directed by Bradley Cooper. We hear how stand-up comedy nearly went wrong in front of the England squad, what it takes to win over a hostile room, and why being relaxed might be the most powerful weapon of all. There’s Liverpool chat, Anfield directors’ box madness, iconic songs making their way into movies, and a reminder that football - just like life - can turn on one tiny moment. Plus, awkward hotel goodbyes, junket disasters, and proof that ball boys are officially on one. As always, let us know in the comments - what’s your biggest sliding doors moment? 00:00 - Hotel room chaos and setting the scene 02:10 - Crouchy’s “ultra-professional” car collection story 04:45 - Why golf is boring… until it isn’t 06:05 - Watford vs Millwall and the ball boy disaster 08:00 - AFCON final madness and towel-gate 10:30 - Introducing John Bishop 13:45 - How a film about John Bishop even happened 16:25 - Bradley Cooper gets involved 18:45 - How true the film is to John’s real life 20:05 - John Bishop vs the England dressing room 24:10 - The art of winning a hostile crowd 26:40 - Growing up a Liverpool fan 30:15 - Sitting in the Anfield directors’ box 33:30 - The Liverpool song moment in the film 40:05 - Istanbul, missed finals and sliding doors 46:20 - Could John Bishop do stand-up for England again? 49:10 - Awkward goodbyes and junket chaos 51:40 - Butterfly effects and career-defining moments This episode is sponsored by The AA, the UK’s No.1 breakdown provider.

    “They Didn’t Want It!” - Insight Into Macclesfield’s FA Cup Miracle & January Transfer Sagas

    On this week’s episode of the Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids, and Chris dive headfirst into the magic — and madness — of the FA Cup. Fresh off an unforgettable third round, the lads break down one of the greatest underdog stories you’ll ever hear, as non-league Macclesfield stun Crystal Palace and remind everyone why this competition still matters. Crouchy opens up about why these moments genuinely move him, sharing his love for the underdog and why football stories like this never lose their power. We hear firsthand from FA Cup hero Sam Heathcote — a PE teacher by day — as he joins the pod straight from the car en route to his next game, still buzzing from the biggest moment of his life. Elsewhere, the conversation turns darker as the lads unpack the brutal realities of the January transfer window. Sids delivers a painfully honest story about a training-ground moment that changed everything, revealing just how quickly confidence, careers, and clubs can turn… From muddy six-yard boxes to that infamous line — “we won’t stop you” — this episode has it all. FA Cup magic, transfer trauma, darts obsession, Spanish songs, and absolute chaos.

    ‘We’ve Gone Global’ Crouchy Passes the Pod to Ronaldo, Iniesta, Cafu and More!

    New year, same chaos. Crouchy's dialling in from Dubai, Sid’s gone full flamenco, and Chris is still reeling from missing the greatest night in Ally Pally history. In this episode, the boys catch up post-Christmas and somehow end up covering robot massages, dodgy gift-giving, Sidwell’s ambition to become a Spanish guitar-playing Gypsy King, and whether the pod should launch a residency at Finsbury Park. Crouchy talks us through meeting Ronaldo at the World Sports Summit (yes, that Ronaldo), putting the podcast on the global stage, and why there’s a very real chance we could become PSG’s shirt sponsor. There’s also a very passionate rant about the FA Cup, a long-overdue roasting of Tottenham’s home form, and Chris has an existential breakdown over kids dressing as referees for Christmas. Darts. Destiny. Desmonds. Let’s go." 00:00 – Welcome back: robot hands, bad presents & Sid’s groans 04:30 – Sidwell's musical ambitions: Finsbury Park warm-up act? 05:00 – Crouchy’s Busted moment at the O2 (yes, really) 10:00 – Ronaldo finally meets his hero (kind of) 20:00 – Pod in Paris?

    Why Everyone Thinks They’re Good at Bowling & Darts Of Destiny Finale Drama! | New Years Eve Special

    On this New Year’s special episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids, and Chris kick back with a relaxed end-of-year pod with listener messages, reflections on a huge year, and absolutely no pressure… until bowling enters the conversation. The lads look back on some unforgettable podcast moments, react to thoughtful listener questions about football pressure, injuries, and dressing room dynamics, and share a genuinely moving message about prostate health awareness. Then, in true Crouchy fashion, things take a sharp turn as a simple listener question sparks a full-blown debate about ten-pin bowling. Is a perfect bowling game harder than a hole-in-one? Why does everyone think they’re better at bowling than they actually are? What’s the most embarrassing thing you can do on a bowling date — and when did bowling shoes quietly disappear forever? It’s light-hearted, nostalgic, unexpectedly philosophical, and the perfect way to see in the New Year with the pod. Happy New Year from the lads — and yes, most of the episode really does end up being about bowling.    00:00 - New Year’s Eve pod begins & relaxed holiday vibes 01:02 - Reflecting on podcast highlights from the year 02:05 - Wild journey home stories & “investment opportunities” tease 03:29 - Listener question: are managers hiding injuries? 04:16 - Emotional prostate health message from a listener 05:27 - Can players really fake injuries?

    That Christmas Nativity Special: Donkeys, Darts & Angel Di Maria

    On this week’s Christmas special of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids, and Chris fully embrace the festive spirit — with a twist only football could provide. Forget the traditional nativity, because the lads bring you a football-themed retelling of the Christmas story, featuring familiar faces like Mary Earps, Angel Di Maria, Dean Windass, Peter Schmeichel, and a baby Gabriel Jesus born not in Bethlehem… but firmly in football folklore. With festive jumpers on, beers flowing, and absolutely no attempt to take things seriously, Crouchy leads the lads through a chaotic, laugh-out-loud Christmas tale that somehow manages to celebrate football heritage and the true meaning of Christmas all at once. There’s donkey impressions, questionable accents, proud dad moments, and just enough sentimentality to remind everyone what the season is all about. To round things off, the Darts of Destiny makes its Christmas return, with league points, pressure throws, and big regrets on the line — all in support of a brilliant cause. Merry Christmas from all of us at That Peter Crouch Podcast 🎄⚽ Chumbawamba  00:00 - Festive jumpers, beers & Christmas vibes 01:29 - Christmas Eve traditions & pub confessions 02:50 - “The true meaning of Christmas” football-style 03:32 - Introducing the football Nativity story 03:45 - The Nativity begins: Mary Earps & Joseph Cole 04:15 - Angel Di Maria delivers the big news 05:03 - King Ledley’s decree & the journey begins 05:42 - Dean Windass enters as the donkey 06:33 - No room at the inn… Manuel Neuer says no 07:10 - Peter Schmeichel offers the stable 07:56 - Gabriel Jesus is born in the Nicky Banger 08:35 - Shepherds receive the heavenly announcement 09:17 - The Three Kings arrive with gifts 09:47 - “What Christmas is all about” 10:26 - Proud dad energy & jumper appreciation 12:44 - Darts of Destiny returns Follow our Clips page https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLNBLB3xr3LyiyAkhZEtiAA  For more Peter Crouch:  Twitter - https://twitter.com/petercrouch  Therapy Crouch - https://www.youtube.com/@thetherapycrouch  For more Chris Stark  Twitter - https://twitter.com/Chris_Stark Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/chrisstark/ For more Steve Sidwell  Twitter - https://twitter.com/sjsidwell  Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/stevesidwell14  #PeterCrouch #ThatPeterCrouchPodcast Hosted on Acast.
