The few times I've listened to WSD, I always enjoyed it... so that kind of sucks. Anyway the latest Football Weekly podcast has a cracker of a joke about Zhirkov and Ashley Young.

I am OK posted:Yeah it is 'cirrhosis'. Dunno what my fingers were doing there. I mean, it's not impressive that he knew the word because it's one of those words that are pretty much the same in any language.

I think it's because they're not native speakers of the language 'Ramos' is in. Just a wild guess.

Why should they talk about the SPL? They barely ever mention the leagues in Cyprus and USA too.

I imagine a lot more Americans listen to it than Scots. Also calling whatever happened "one of the biggest stories of sporting corruption in our lifetime" is being pretty loving kind to 100s of other cases of corruption in sports. I think your geographic proximity to the situation is clouding your ability to see it fairly. But keep raging I guess if you're that desperate to hear people who don't know/care about Glasgow Rangers talk about Glasgow Rangers to an audience made of 99% people who don't know/care about Glasgow Rangers.

ICA posted:Name me 3 cases that come close to Rangers'. Unless you were born on the morning of the day Rangers did whatever they did and then died later that night, it's not the biggest sports corruption story of your lifetime. Check out all the cool match fixing in Italy, Turkey, Greece and most of Eastern Europe for real corruption with people going to jail and receiving lifetime bans from soccer and so on. This thing Rangers did(I still don't know what it was, I thought they did some tax dodging but apparently there was some corruption beyond all measure, I wish they talked about it on Football Weekly) is about as notable as the rest of Scottish football.

But it was the worst episode in a long time. Boring host and boring guests.

That new guy seemed to be the kind of a person who has a lot of theories about football but until now had no one to talk to about them. I mean what was that nonsense about a Boro player ruining goal celebrations for ever?

britishbornandbread posted:I'm not taking the piss or anything but I don't think you "get" the Ramble. It's 3-4 lads who are the same trying to do the Ricky Gervais laugh and then read a bit from wikipedia about a dead footballer and say "ooo he's brilliant, wonnit"? Big world though, innit.

It was hilarious listening to Football Weekly attempt to talk about ticket prices. They seemed genuinely baffled at the idea that tickets could be more expensive, quoted Karl Marx on why prices shouldn't be raised and then suggested a catchphrase-based ticket pricing policy("twenty's plenty"). Way to live up to the stereotype.

Bit much to expect anyone over 30 to be excited about football. They'd have to be retarded.

Bovril Delight posted:I tried listening to athletico mince and I'm a little confused on the whole corbyn thing can someone fill me in Aah. I'm glad you asked. As a bit of an expert on British politics, it will be easy for me to explain. Corbyn is the wholly unremarkable man who is the head of the labour party, which is the big communist/socialist party in the UK. Most British people consider themselves to be 'socialist' so the internal workings of the labour party are very important to them. They can't get enough of it. As Corbyn is very incapable in every sense, some people oppose him being the top man of the party(not sure about this but I think that's the gist of it.) I think, the conflict of him being the main socialist man has caused a lot of banter and made Corbyn well known despite not having done anything. Sorry, I though I could write something funny but actually only wrote that. At least it's all true.
