    EP. 395 | Ranking More “Game’s Gone” Moments - Chelsea’s Ref Huddle & Digital Match Programmes?!

    On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Crouchy, Chris, and Sids dive headfirst into another chaotic round of your “Game’s Gone” submissions—and nothing is safe. From Chelsea’s baffling centre-circle huddle (with the referee somehow stuck in the middle of it) to the death of printed matchday programmes, the lads dissect the modern game’s strangest trends with their usual mix of nostalgia and disbelief. There’s outrage over “starter and finisher” terminology, confusion around American-style commentary creeping into football, and a proper debate on whether football is quietly losing its identity. The boys also stumble into some all-time ridiculous footballer names, explore bizarre football simulator games, and question whether players today are a bit too… well moisturised. Plus, Crouchy gears up for a Liverpool Legends return at Anfield—with big plans to bring back proper shin pads. Packed with listener submissions, strong opinions, and plenty of laughs, this episode asks the big question once again: has the game well and truly gone?

    CLASSIC CLIPS | What’s In a Premier League Striker’s Contact? Crouchy On The REALITY Of Goal Bonuses

    FROM THE VAULT: In this clip, Crouchy dives into the details of his contract during his time at Stoke City, revealing the realities behind goal bonuses in top-flight football. Crouch breaks down a clause that rewarded him for hitting double figures in a season, and reflects on the pressure, mentality, and decision-making that comes with it — including whether players ever act selfishly in pursuit of financial incentives. He opens up on dressing room dynamics, the psychology of strikers in front of goal, and why he insists money was never his primary motivation on the pitch. The conversation also expands into how modern football has changed, with astronomical wages and bonuses potentially shifting player motivations, as well as a hilarious debate on whether defenders deserve bonuses at all — and why football contracts might be more complicated than they seem.

    EP. 394 | Danny Dyer Gets BRUTALLY Honest: West Ham’s Decline, Fake Big Club Fans & Spurs Relegation

    On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Chris, and Sids are joined by actor, lifelong West Ham fan, and all-round football obsessive Danny Dyer—and it gets properly lively. From the moment he walks in, Danny brings unfiltered opinions on modern football, tearing into everything from agents and player loyalty to the state of fan culture today. He opens up about his latest film, where he plays a ruthless football agent, revealing just how accurate (and brutal) that world really is behind the scenes. The conversation dives deep into West Ham’s rollercoaster journey, including that unforgettable Conference League win, the pain of leaving Upton Park, and why some players simply don’t care enough when relegation is on the line. Danny doesn’t hold back either on fans switching clubs, calling out what he sees as a growing disconnect in the game. There’s also chaos, of course—caravan parks, phone networks, McDonald’s debates, and one of the most random tangents the pod has ever seen. And once Danny heads off, the lads wrap things up with Cheltenham stories, Premier League predictions, and the usual end-of-show madness. If you like your football chat honest, raw, and very funny… this one’s for you.

    SNEAK PEAK | Danny Dyer Becomes a Desperate Football Agent With Nothing Left…

    SNEAK PEEK: In this clip, Danny Dyer joins the lads to break down his latest film role, where he plays a desperate football agent fighting to keep his career alive. Danny explains how his new film explored the darker side of the football agent world — the ruthless negotiations, the lack of loyalty in the game, and the pressure that comes with chasing the next big deal. He lifts the lid on the character he plays: a man fresh out of rehab, clinging onto his final client while his life slowly unravels over the course of a tense, one-room drama shot in Dublin. Danny also reflects on the craft of acting after more than three decades in the industry, addressing the perception that he “just plays himself” and why, for him, the real measure of an actor is simple — getting hired and delivering the job. From the brutal realities of football agents to the challenge of carrying an entire film largely alone on screen, Danny reveals why this role pushed him in ways he hadn’t experienced before — and why it might be one of the performances he’s most proud of.

    EP. 363 | Harry Wilson: "Everything Silva Promised, Happened." Fulham On FIRE & Wales World Cup Hope

    On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, the lads are joined by Fulham’s in-form winger and Welsh international Harry Wilson — and there are some unbelievable stories behind his rise. Harry opens up about the incredible moment his grandad placed a £50 bet on him to play for Wales when he was just 18 months old — a punt that eventually paid out £125,000 when Harry made his debut years later. It’s a story so good it genuinely sounds like a film. The conversation also dives into Harry’s journey through Liverpool’s academy, signing his first contract at just nine years old, and learning from elite players like James Milner, Adam Lallana, Mohamed Salah, and Roberto Firmino in Jurgen Klopp’s first-team training sessions. Harry explains the reality of the loan system in football, including the tough spell that nearly derailed his career before a confidence rebuild back at Liverpool helped turn things around. There are also brilliant insights into the Wales national team, including what it was like playing alongside Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey, the electric atmosphere of the Welsh anthem, how Craig Bellamy’s strict standards are shaping the new generation, and Harry reveals his personal favourite goal ever — a stunning free kick at Old Trafford for Derby County. On top of that, there are of course some classic Crouch pod shenanigans, such as Sid’s surreal story about drinking Bollinger with Brazilian Ronaldo on a ski trip, debating the correct size of shin pads, and Crouchy settles the confusion around a recently surfaced video of him and Messi’s 1v1 in Croydon… Chumbawamba 00:00 - Subscribe song & Intro 01:21 - The “wrong glass for drinks” debate 03:30 - Sid’s ski trip and meeting Brazilian Ronaldo 06:20 - Asking Ronaldo what phone network he’s on 08:45 - Ski trip stories continue 10:48 - Harry Wilson joins the podcast 11:30 - Harry’s incredible season at Fulham 12:50 - Palace or Spurs goal – his favourite this season 13:45 - Listening to the podcast & life with a newborn 14:40 - Shin pad debate: modern footballers wear tiny ones 18:05 - Signing for Liverpool at just 9 years old 20:10 - Growing up in rural Wales 21:45 - The call from Ian Rush 22:50 - Wales debut at 16 years old 23:50 - The famous £50 bet from his grandad 26:30 - Passion & playing for your country  28:30 - Michael Sheen’s team speech 31:10 - The harsh reality of loan spells in football 33:00 - Injury setbacks and rebuilding confidence 33:50 - Training with Klopp’s Liverpool first team 36:40 - Best player in Liverpool training? 38:20 - England’s chances at the World Cup 40:00 - Craig Bellamy’s strict standards with Wales 42:10 - Bellamy’s dressing room rules 44:40 - What players do on Wales international camps 46:05 - Marco Silva’s impact at Fulham 47:55 - Harry reveals which phone network he uses 49:20 - Favourite goal ever: free kick at Old Trafford 51:00 - Set-piece tactics in modern football 55:00 - Listener questions & football stories 01:03:19 - Harry Wilson leaves the podcast 01:04:20 - Paddy Power’s Cheltenham segment 01:07:00 - Score predictions begin 01:10:30 - Spurs’ struggles discussed 01:16:10 -Crouchy and Messi in Croydon? 01:17:00 - Outro 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.

    CLASSIC CLIPS | Carragher & Crouchy: The BRUTAL Liverpool Mentality That Never Let Us Enjoy Winning

    FROM THE VAULT: In this classic clip, Jamie Carragher and Peter Crouch share hilarious stories from inside the Liverpool dressing room, including the moment Crouchy embarrassed himself by unknowingly fancying Xabi Alonso’s partner. The lads also dive into the elite mentality required to succeed at the very top of football. Carragher reflects on the relentless standards at Liverpool and with England, playing alongside legends like Steven Gerrard, John Terry, Frank Lampard and Wayne Rooney, and why winning games was never enough when the ultimate goal was lifting trophies in May. They relive the pressure of competing for Champions League glory, giving a brilliant insight into the mindset and culture inside one of football’s biggest clubs.

    EP. 362 | Ask Us ANYTHING! Football Regrets, Best Nicknames & A Big Money Move To The Saudi League?

    On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, the lads hand over the reins completely… because you asked, and we answered EVERYTHING. From the real story behind how the podcast first began at the BBC (yes, it was basically football’s version of One Direction), to nearly hitting 400 episodes and planning something huge for the 10-year anniversary — Pete, Sids and Chris take a proper trip down memory lane. We dive into the one game Crouchy would replay forever (and the medal that still stings), Sids relives promotion chaos and post-match beers, and the boys get brutally honest about whether they would’ve taken the Saudi payday at the end of their careers. There’s also Cheltenham madness, Harry Redknapp tip stories, footballers calling their jobs “appearances”, shocking dressing room nicknames, the worst Premier League kits of all time… and somehow, a serious debate about double pudding etiquette. Plus — is Crouchy officially a free agent in the phone network transfer window?

    FROM THE VAULT: In this clip, we look back at when Rod Stewart joined the lads to discuss his lifelong love of football, growing up in a football-obsessed household, and the hilarious rivalry he shared with fellow music icon Elton John. Rod opens up about their competitive friendship in the 70s, outrageous Christmas presents, wild nights before heading off to watch Watford F.C., and the legendary moment Elton had his “Blondes Have More Fun” balloons shot down.
