Customer Reviews
Great Fun
All the news, opinions and fun you expect and love about a sports show all wrapped in one package. Great to listen to and keep on top of the weeks sport controversies, hilarity and outstanding performances. The only thing I would ask for is more "12th Man" impersonations. Keep up the good work boys.
A
I love the back page however this podcast is constantly plagued by technical problems culminating with today's effort of the wrong show being put up for download.
Too many technical issues
Too often this podcast is not uploaded correctly, or just not uploaded at all. Again tonight it won't download. This is just not good enough for an organisation as big and reputable as Foxsports. I love the Back Page but this seriously gives me the sh1ts each week.
