Episode 144: The CPL Hath No Fury

Posted on by

Wherein Our Heroes discuss Watford and their record’s eerie similarity to that of Leicester City. Could greatness await, or will they taper off? Ottawa Fury elect to remain in the USL in 2019, sparking the ire of many Canadian soccer fans – we think everyone just needs to take a step back. Wayne Rooney has boosted the fate of DC United, could they make a playoff run? Also, with Canada heading into a CONCACAF Nations League match against USVI, John Herdman makes a bold prediction.

Episode 129: Heads: FA Cup, Tails: Royal Wedding

Posted on by

Wherein Our Heroes question the Argentine Football Association’s package for World Cup journalists – was it a poor prank, Easter egg, or tone-deaf? The FA Cup Final proves too tough to predict. Will Wayne Rooney make a difference in Washington with DC United (on and off the pitch)? Also, MLS club salaries reveal that league parity is on the decline! Lastly, it’s Cavalry not Calvary, people.

Episode 119: The Young Gaffers’ 2018 MLS Season Preview

Posted on by

Wherein Our Heroes channel their deepest foresight to deliver their picks for the MLS Eastern and Western Conference champions. Toronto and Vancouver appear to be on the right track, with Montreal lacking depth after having been bitten hard by pre-season injuries. Atlanta and the Cascadia clubs look to impress once again. The Bachelor finale proves to actually be the most dramatic ever. Also, is Canadian soccer fandom too insular a community? Should fans of the sport get all evangelical up in here? Tune in to hear our thoughts.

Episode 38: Holy Toledo!

Posted on by

Toledo

Wherein Our Heroes get behind the need for more friendlies at home in The Great White North. Lescott and Agbonlahor don’t do themselves any favours post-relegation, and the Portland Timbers hire an Ivy League student to help build a champion, Moneyball-style. Jack Wilshere makes the podcast again, for dubious reasons. Controversy ensues in both Orlando and Leicester as questionable officiating results in 2-2 draws. Also, Jamie Vardy may have a future on the Great Britain Diving Team while Andy Carroll’s shoulder can seemingly move mountains.
