EP. 394 | Danny Dyer Gets BRUTALLY Honest: West Ham’s Decline, Fake Big Club Fans & Spurs Relegation

On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Chris, and Sids are joined by actor, lifelong West Ham fan, and all-round football obsessive Danny Dyer—and it gets properly lively.From the moment he walks in, Danny brings unfiltered opinions on modern football, tearing into everything from agents and player loyalty to the state of fan culture today. He opens up about his latest film, where he plays a ruthless football agent, revealing just how accurate (and brutal) that world really is behind the scenes.The conversation dives deep into West Ham’s rollercoaster journey, including that unforgettable Conference League win, the pain of leaving Upton Park, and why some players simply don’t care enough when relegation is on the line. Danny doesn’t hold back either on fans switching clubs, calling out what he sees as a growing disconnect in the game.There’s also chaos, of course—caravan parks, phone networks, McDonald’s debates, and one of the most random tangents the pod has ever seen.And once Danny heads off, the lads wrap things up with Cheltenham stories, Premier League predictions, and the usual end-of-show madness.If you like your football chat honest, raw, and very funny… this one’s for you.Chumbawamba00:00 - Intro & Cris’ birthday chaos02:10 - McDonald’s XI & football banter04:12 - Captain armbands in everyday jobs06:25 - Best motorway services debate08:30 - McDonald’s horror stories & late-night cravings09:31 - Danny Dyer joins the podcast10:45 - New film explained: football agent role12:05 - “Agents are powerful… and not nice”13:30 - Acting method & career reflections15:10 - Filming alone for 10 days straight16:40 - Singing scene chaos & improvisation18:00 - Football Factory & early career impact21:10 - Growing up around football culture23:00 - “You can’t choose your football club”24:40 - Modern football fan criticism27:30 - West Ham Conference League win reaction29:10 - West Ham ownership & club frustrations33:10 - Jarrod Bowen, family & media pressure35:30 - “He should be in the England squad”38:00 - England chances at major tournaments39:30 - Favourite West Ham players ever42:20 - Best Upton Park memories44:00 - Caravan parks & random fan questions45:20 - Phone networks debate (chaos segment)46:40 - Spurs relegation debate48:20 - Millwall rivalry & fan culture52:05 - Danny Dyer leaves the podcast53:00 - Paddy Power Cheltenham stories55:00 - Fancy dress & Wolf of Wall Street moment56:30 - Premier League run-in analysis59:00 - Spurs, Liverpool & relegation talk01:03:00 - Final predictions & mini-league pressure01:07:00 - Closing thoughts & outroFor more Peter Crouch: Twitter - https://twitter.com/petercrouch Therapy Crouch - https://www.youtube.com/@thetherapycrouch For more Chris Stark Twitter - https://twitter.com/Chris_StarkInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/chrisstark/For more Steve Sidwell Twitter - https://twitter.com/sjsidwell Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/stevesidwell14 #PeterCrouch #ThatPeterCrouchPodcast Hosted on Acast.
