Lack of Barry Glendenning and Sean Ingle is annoying.

The episode following international week was kind of dull. It was really horrible basic analysis. No fun in it either.

Is the live show this Sunday?

He is still in Germany. I'm not sure for how long though.

He was saying on Twitter that the comments for that last two shows weren't great. There were maybe staff shortages or something. He also said they always 'try to have someone funny + reporter + someone with knowledge and right tone'.

Hopefully the usuals will be back soon.

Reminder to everybody that this evening at 6pm in the UK (or just after the Chelsea vs Tottenham game) the live Football Weekly show is on.

There is more info here about how to contact them while they are on air and about the show here...

Should be pretty good. :)

I downloaded the guardian podcast yesterday and Richardson is still an obnoxious twat. The Espn soccernet podcast is great, it may seem a little dry at first but at least it's a proper football podcast.

Wait, What? When is Richardson ever obnoxious? He is pretty down to earth, mocks his own inability to get a job on TV, doesn't really voice his opinion too much and makes funny puns about everything. I honestly can't think of a better host.

They mentioned Barry in this weeks pod. He's in Turkey apparently. Will be back start of October.

Also I hope they don't have the guy from Zonal Marking on often. I already find his articles annoying enough.

The tension between Richardson and Sean Ingle is really strange too.

There was a moment towards the end of today's pod when Ingle made a remark about the conference Sid is attending and James Richardson just sounded incredibly pissed off by it. Maybe I'm just exaggerating but it seems like there's quite a few moments like this between them.
