[Albion] Official BHAFC podcast

[dolphins]

The people being interviewed are interesting enough but the delivery by the host seems quite dull.

I still much prefer the Albion Unlimited one from JC and Wozza. For a non-BHA specific one, I LOVE The Rest Is Football - Lineker, Shearer and Richards. Worth listening to all the back episodes...great fun, lots of piss-taking, pretty sweary in places.

Football ramble is decent if you like The Rest Is Football, they do a show daily but I only tend to listen to the Friday / Monday show as they look at the football coming over the weekend and review it on the Monday

Zzzzzz.
There are better Albion podcasts already out there.
It’s a concept done better by fans. Albion Unlimited is good too.
And what an unimaginative choice of host.

 

[Machiavelli]

I'm sure it will be really anti-corporate, edgy and cutting and in no way will the scripts have been signed off by Paul Barber

The audio quality is diabolical.

Sounds like a bloody nightmare.

Each to their own. I'll put you down as "undecided".

Each to their own. I'll put you down as "undecided".

Certainly not undecided. My favourite football podcast is Football Cliches (yet to reappear this season), followed by Quickly Kevin, then the usual newspaper ones - Guardian Football Weekly, The Game (The Times), Totally Football Show, TIFO, etc. Anything with bantery, guffawing ex-footballers is a total no-no for me. Footballers rarely say anything of note. One or two exceptions - Gregor Robertson, Nedum Onuoha…

The football , Albion and me series was really good. Simple format. Trips down memory lane. I hope he brings it back at some point.
Stuck on undrthecosh atm. As low brow as it gets but it is funny.

Indeed - superb Albion podcast making the guest the centre of the episode and giving them the room to talk and share their experiences.

Richard Newman teased some more episodes back in January, so hopefully something is in the pipeline:-

 

[Wozza]

Listened to the Joel Veltman one.

Maybe I missed it - I wasn't 100% engaged - but don't think they discussed the upcoming matches against Ajax. WTF?!

Love undrthecosh, like you say low brow as can be, but it’s great value. Some absolute headcases interviewed on there. Leon Knight one was interesting as I got the impression all three hosts thought he was a twat.

The Famous Sloping Pitch is a good listen for fans of a certain age. Simply Nick Hancock and Chris England banging on about the week’s football … what’s amused them and got on their tits. Doesn’t all hit the mark but it harks back to the time when people used to have a laugh about football. Refreshing not to be subjected to earnest, self-appointed tactical ‘experts’ who’ve never managed a game, or dressing room ‘banter’ greeted by 10x the laughter it merits.

 

[HeaviestTed]

Still working through the Wolf and Owl back catalogue for my daily walk but will give it a go

Same!

And this is really weird but I guess you are a fan of the sopranos from your username?

During lockdown I listened to all the talking sopranos and watched each episode as I listened to it - it was amazing!

earnest, self-appointed tactical ‘experts’ who’ve never managed a game, or dressing room ‘banter’ greeted by 10x the laughter it merits.

Good summary of 90% of Football coverage these days!

Really interesting episode with Tony Bloom on this week. Key takeaways for me:

• Tony is significantly involved in every men's team transfer, and to a degree in every u21 transfer
• Our spending this summer will not become normal. We've seen an opportunity, both with our profits last year and with other clubs struggling with PSR, and have taken advantage. We've invested in the squad for the next few years
• We are very comfortable regarding PSR ourselves, no concerns and we'll always stay within the PL financial rules
• Fab has exceeded all Tony's expectations so far in how he's settled in, particularly how well he communicates with players, staff and media
• Fab is level headed, and in control of his emotions, and in that regard similar to Hughton and Potter. It was one of the key things we were looking for in a coach
• Which is interesting, as it was very much implied that RDZ was not in this mold.

Thanks, will give that a listen later. Meanwhile...

• Tony is significantly involved in every men's team transfer, and to a degree in every u21 transfer

Oh. I thought the good ones were Tony's and the bad ones were the coach's. Sure NSC can't be wrong about this?

• Our spending this summer will not become normal. We've seen an opportunity, both with our profits last year and with other clubs struggling with PSR, and have taken advantage. We've invested in the squad for the next few years

Good, and as many have said on the 'why this summer' threads.

• Fab has exceeded all Tony's expectations so far in how he's settled in, particularly how well he communicates with players, staff and media
• Fab is level headed, and in control of his emotions, and in that regard similar to Hughton and Potter. It was one of the key things we were looking for in a coach
• Which is interesting, as it was very much implied that RDZ was not in this mold.

I think everyone could see that about RDZ by the end. Bloke must have been doing everyone's nut so a different dynamic was obviously needed.
