Also, the president of “Le Coq” is not havin’ any sex scandals, Jack Warner plumbs new depths, and Rodney Wallace bobs and weaves his way through a barrage of beer cans all the way to the illustrious “Haircut of the Week” award.

Episode 18: Jamie Vardy! The Dream Begins

Posted on by

WebWherein Our Heroes hope the MLS Cup runneth over, a cast is discussed for Jamie Vardy’s life on celluloid, Manchester United continue to bore, Arsenal’s infirmary continues to burst at the seams, and we are not having Diego Costa’s pathetic attempt at insubordination.

Episode 17: Daniel Sturridge and Jesus Present “You Carried Me”

Posted on by

Wherein Our Heroes are joined by yet another co-host, Fearghal. The fellas play Mourinho for a day, Liverpool and Spurs run rampant, and it’s a nightmare weekend for The Gunners. Toby Alderweireld’s penchant for the wet-hair look helps him rise above, the Los Blancos faithful jeer the fudge out of their star (who wishes to “retire with dignity”), and the MLS may have been underestimated by Stevie and Francis. Also, we make the case to be hired as scribes for the best buddy dramedy to hit the UK airwaves in decades.

BrendanWherein Our Heroes are joined by their first-ever guest host, who struggles with The Gaffers’ creed. Formations are obsessed over, Euro 2016 dark horses are released from their barns, and the lads take a pretend gamble on Ronaldinho. Dimitri Payet, Olivier Giroud, and Christian Eriksen are lauded for their performances this season, while Sunderland and Villa are in tough. Also, Brendan is subjected to the dreaded Lightning Round of Awesomeness.

Wherein Our Heroes adjudge themselves to be desolate after the last round of the MLS playoffs. Jamie Vardy is the slyest of Foxes (not to be Ruud), Brendan Rodgers hops The Tube, and Rooney’s slaps are better than his finishing. Also, Stoic Loic Remy receives a huzzah for not going to ground, Jeb Brovsky rocks a modern-day Errol Flynn look, and a Costa Rican referee gets the heave-ho from CONCACAF. Jason recounts his recent experience in Vancouver, and The Gaffers weigh in on MLS and BPL before the international break.

The British press falls for Jurgen Klopp (Haircut of the Week recipient) like newly changed oak leaves in the October breeze, we’re havin’ Don Garber’s vision like decorative gourds on a bountiful table, and Blatter, Valcke and Platini reap what they sow. Also, international injuries runneth over like a Horn ‘o’ plenty and the Canadian Soccer Association schedules a mid-week turkey.
