Customer Reviews
Good podcast, but with drawbacks...
This is a good pod, with some brilliant material... The Scouting for Goals podcast is captivating journalism and entertainment for anyone who enjoys football...
What stops me from putting a higher star rating is the Olympics podcasts which seem almost shoe horned into the schedule and often end up being tedious and drawn out, I appreciate the need to promote 2012, but this does nothing to wet the appetite...
More in depth, 'behind the scenes', or technical analysis pods on football would certainly we welcomed and boxing programmes are always intriguing...
More Boxing specials please!!
Hoped this weeks 'When they were Kings' the 5 live special on the Ali, Frazier, Foreman rivalry in the great heavyweight era of the 1970's would have been made available as a podcast. The Story of Raging Bull was a fascinating programme as well, as a boxing fan more coverage please
