The Half & Half Scarf Football Podcast - Episode 15
from The Half & Half Scarf Football Podcast With Nick & Dom · host Nick Bramley & Dom Hanrahan
On this Episode 15 of the Half & Half Scarf Football Podcast with Nick & Dom, we discuss TWO issues that are currently being discussed at length. 1. The Proposed Changes to the Championship Playoffs 2. The Saturday 3.00pm TV Blackout In terms of the proposed Championship Playoff changes, why wouldn't Championship Chairmen vote for an increase in places down to 7th & 8th - but why is that absolutely the WRONG thing to consider? Even though our club, Boro have been in 7th or 8th twice in the last 5 seasons, the same as Millwall and with Blackburn being there 3 times, why are absolutely and categorically against this proposal? What do we think would be the outcome and if you finish in 8th with an average of over 18 points a season less than the team in 3rd, is that even fair? A meaty subject that we both have strong views on..... In part two, we discuss why a 60+ years old ban on Saturday games at 3.00pm being shown on TV, is no longer fit for purpose and what we think would happen if the ban was lifted. Do we think it should, or should not be lifted and what do we think of some fans who "might" stop attending live games in person - particularly lower down the pyramid? Is 2025 the year we should rescind a 1960's moratorium and what do you think? We hope that you will enjoy and have your own views too - we would love to hear from you.....

What this episode covers
A football discussion Podcast hosted by Nick Bramley & Dom Hanrahan. Two fans and ”Men of a Certain Age” with years of experience as fans of the live & televised game in England and around Europe..... This entertaining weekly Podcast is for ANYONE with a passing interest in football, whether an on the terraces fan, an armchair fan, a fan of the Premier League or the National League and anything in between. Each week we will discuss and explore all that we think might just be worthy of two ”average Joe” football fans giving their time over to consider and discuss - and hopefully entertain, or even annoy you. Football, is after all a devisive sport of opinions and we LOVE it...... It’s not a moaning session, it’s not just a hankering for heavy pitches, flying tackles and laced up footballs, but we think that our audience will certainly agree with a lot of the topics we intend to discuss. Either way, we hope that you will be engaged in a thought process that might just keep you entertained. Thanks for your support.
