1971fozzy Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 It’s 5 minutes or so - more a teaser for the episodes to come. Should be fascinating. Looking forward to the first episode with Tony Pullis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horatio Caine Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Ah right - I was wondering whether it was Irons or Levein that was getting sacked (suppose Levein's already there...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weaz1981 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I liked it. Do you think he was talking about cathro when he said he worked with a manager who wouldn't do any of the hard stuff?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think he was talking about cathro when he said he worked with a manager who wouldn't do any of the hard stuff?! Could only be. Robbie isn't the type IMO and Levein never worked with anyone else at Hearts as DoF? Another example that Cathro could not deliver any authority at Tynecastle during his time here. Thank God that's history and we're improving on the park as well as off. I also liked the podcast. Say what you want about CL but he's been around the block and has a lot of stories, and is able to take the P out himself. Only thing I found odd was Pulis talking directly to Craig and not both hosts. Every time he spoke it was "Craig, this player" or "Let me tell you Craig", ignoring that there was another person asking questions.

Must hurt seeing your entire career boiled down to (in the minds of some at least) first one bad Scotland result (actually nowhere near the worst we've had) and then one a bad season and a half. Not to mention having no marks like Michael Stewart slag you off for not having any medals. He'll live though - skin like a rhino. Obviously lost his managerial mojo but a great pundit - says what he thinks even if he goes a bit easy on his fellow managers as they all tend to do.

Jambo92 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Thought it was a great behind the curtain episode, there's hundreds of bland football podcasts out there now but the first episode was really interesting. Both Pulis and Levein's time is done, some of the stories they had would have them in banned from the game if they tried it on the soft players thats in the game these days.

Did wonder if it was Stendal he was referring to, there was talk that Levein was asked to clear out some of the players when we was hanging around. Bit of creative license being used in how it's phrased as i think it was more a matter of him being told that as he'd brought them in, he could get rid!

The Bannon Flick Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) I surely can't be the only person to find Amy Irons incredibly annoying ? Hard to see how she get's to be host of a football show when her knowledge of football isn't that great. Wonder if it's got to do with the fact that (a) she is good looking and (b) her Dad is well know name in Scottish football. Ray Bradshaw is another one that the BBC seem to give plenty stuff to - and he is neither good looking or related to any ex-pro's 😐 Edited October 15, 2021 by The Bannon Flick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
