I actually dont mind lee himself in small doses but it's the brown nosing that gets old quick - when he was world champion (fair play to him) he seemed to be on every week - it got old quick especially as he isn't the most exciting guy in the world.

The same kind of fawning over uncle jim...

A bit like US Murph constantly saying that's great knowledge to something my mother would know.. Ala I hear Michael Jordan was pretty good at basketball

Normally I’m not mad about him either, but his interview yesterday about the Tyson Fury fight was very insightful

Ken the veterinarian expert was a good laugh.

Ken in flying form these days i think

Cienciano

I was waiting for Kens impression of Pep saying "guys"
Wasn't disappointed

The old Delaney/Marcotti double whammy today! What a crowd pleaser!

Arghus

Ugggghhhh, Marcotti, uggh.

Is there any contributor to the show that people haven't been giving out about on this thread.

Mark Tighe.
David Snyed.

I think most of their contributors are pretty good. Delaney doesn't even bother me. I could not care less about what he says or doesn't say on twitter.

Marcotti though. C'mon...

Ken describing Zidane's footwear as 'Larry David' style was a fantastic little comment!

Wilson is great - him and ken kinda slag each other off and it's always taken by the other as a joke.

I did laugh the time marcotti made ken knock on his apartment door 3 times before opening..

I like Marcotti but completely understand why some people can't stand him. He often makes really good points and but delivers them in such a forceful and irritating way. I've just found that I've been on his side too often to think he doesn't know what he's talking about.

Raisins

Johnathan Liew.

Sid Lowe as well.

Rory Smith is excellent and that fella that covers City is also great

Also, the synopsis of Mbappe in The Players Tribune alone was worth my sub this month

Enjoyed Marcotti tearing Souness a new one all the same.

So he's gone up a little in my estimation.

Sounesss is an arch spoofer. Quite clearly bitter as well about the riches enjoyed by today's footballers.

Whoever they have on, just be thankful it’s never Graham Hunter. What an absolute cretin.

Beersmith

9/10 of the guests on are great, we just don't mention it everytime. A few annoying guests which most agree upon as being twats

Absolutely loves himself.

Also, everyone he does The Big Interview (which can be good) with seems to be the reason he got in football.

Smell the glove

Marcotti is good IMO. Especially when he is asked about Italian football. He actually watches the league and knows about it and he was 100% right when talking about Ronaldo and Italy. But I agree with the earlier post in that I can understand why people maybe don't like his delivery of his opinion.

Heard Andy Lee was coming on, didn’t even make it as far as Early.

I think Lee is superb. He clearly knows what he’s talking about and his enthusiasm for boxing is infectious.

Really enjoyed Caitlin Thompson today.

Nothing against Lee really. The hero worship goes over the top sometimes but it’s really that I have no interest at all in boxing.

Arghus

Andy Lee is always a great guest - and I don't really care that much about boxing.

I don't get the supposed "hero worshipping" - it just sounds like a bunch of people having a chat?

I don’t get how you could listen to someone talking about boxing if you’ve no interest in boxing.

The beauty of this pod is that the right guest and skilful interviewing can make an interview about a sport you have no interest in quite engaging. I think the lads have earned our trust so you give them the benefit of the doubt and more often than not, that’s rewarded
