Own-goal flavours, casual retirements & football clubs as sperm counts

from Football Cliches · host Adam Hurrey & Goalhanger

Adam Hurrey is joined on the Adjudication Panel by Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker. On the agenda: Lee Dixon invents some new "goalkeeper's not saving that" hyperbole, Sean Dyche's potential new job, the difference between "comedy" and "bizarre" own goals, poor cricket knowledge in Stephen King novels, the Daily Mail's "Champagne Socialists XI", footballers who forget to officially retire, tenuous footballspeak in microwave adverts and Duncan Ferguson's insight into the obsessive mind of a goalscorer. Meanwhile, the panel reflect on the live tour so far, including a glorious sold-out night at the Hackney Empire.
