The Bridge Brothers Podcast: Does it still pay to be loyal in football?

Matt and Nick open the show by discussing AFC Croydon's progression in the FA Cup at the expense of resilient Tooting and Mitcham. Alongside recounting the Rams' victory against the Terrors, Nick also talks about his trip to see the "Boys from the Crem" take on Merstham FC.The lads then go all Premier League as Nick recounts his trip to Chelsea FC for the Stamford Bridge Stadium Tour as well his match day experience of the Blues' 0-0 draw against Crystal Palace.The brothers then talk about their topic of the week. Inspired by stand-off between Alexander Isak and Newcastle United, Matt and Nick try and answer the question: "does it still pay to be loyal in football these days?" They start by answering this quandary more generally but then focus on the situation at St. James' Park, where Nick stands up for the Swedish centre forward and says that he is entitled to be ambitious, whereas Matt is more on the side of the Magpies given that Isak has signed a six year contract with three years left to go.
