Pubcast #89: Succumbed again...

After a week’s enforced hiatus, the pubcasters braved the midday sun at Canary Wharf for a pint and a chat about football. This week we were joined by a pair of Johns as well as well as our good friend Aimee, who was discussing pairs of another kind…

Despite a distinct lack of actual football, plus a slight technical hitch with our high tech recording equipment (Jim’s phone overheating in the sun), we managed to pack plenty of footy chat into the show, including:

• Jerome’s team GB performance review • Ronaldinho’s costly can of cola • Pompey in turmoil • Darlington update • Darren Fletcher’s future • Luka Modric going AWOL • Bale banned? • QPR’s cunning plan • Mirror Fantasy Football • Western Sydney Wanderers update (& Adelaide United’s phantom player) • Sean’s speech impediment • Naughty boys of the week, including Mario Balotelli’s new best mate • Michael Owen’s Twitter Q&A & 30p for a pee rant • Bangor City’s Les Davies up for European Player of the Year • Plus the usual insight and banter you know and tolerate
