2:07:52

55 years of hurt and counting! A heartbreaking end to an amazing tournament leaves Dave and Dom with lots to talk about. Is this a country that even deserves football to come home? As the joke goes that if it did, Priti Patel would have it deported, and that pretty much sums up the episode. The boys debate Gareth Southgate's competency, the players of the tournament and where England goes from here, both football-wise and spiritually. Italy are the well-deserved Champions of Europe, thank you for joining us during this incredible tournament!…

COVID STRIKES AGAIN! So Dom does a quick solo-episode about the Semi-Finals! Italy v Spain, England v Denmark! How did the games go and how does it set-up the EURO 2020 Final at Wembley Stadium?! Kasper Schmeichel, Leonardo Spinazzola, Raheem Sterling, Gareth Southgate, and Boris Johnson... it can only be Who Watches The World Cup!…

44:01

Goodbye to the Heroes! The tournament didn't throw up many surprises in the quarter finals but it did deliver some bloody good football! From the epic penalty shootout between Switzerland & Spain, to the England squad finding that extra gear against Ukraine, EURO 2020 delivered again and so it's only right that the boys go through it all and also evaluate a controversial policy enacted by the Ukrainian Defence Minister requiring female cadets to parade in high-heels! Bread & butter, peanut butter & jelly, football & politics... what could be better? Switzerland v Spain Belgium v Italy Czech Republic v Denmark Ukraine v England…

England v Germany.... well that can only mean... THREE LIONS ON THE SHIRT! TWO WORLD WARS! ONE WORLD CUP! EURO 2020's round of 16 contained some absolutely incredible football and even more incredible results! Europe's superstars were on display and JEEZ LOUISE A LOT OF THEM HAVE LEFT EARLY! What's COMING HOME? It might not be football, but it sure is Cristiano Ronaldo, Kylian Mbappe, Paul Pogba, N'Golo Kante, Gareth Bale, Manuel Neuer and Mats Hummels... ...Oh, and former Health Secretary Matt Hancock. He got caught cheating on his wife and now the UK has to replace its health secretary in the middle of a pandemic, not because 128,000 people died, but because he technically broke social distancing rules by kissing somebody else's wife... unbelievable Jeff...

The group stages have finished and that means it is time to say goodbye! Some nations performed admirably (North Macedonia), some disappointed (Turkey & Poland), some did exactly as well as we had expected them to do (Russia) so it is time for the boys to lay it all out! ... And then for some reason Dom talks about Captain Scarlet for 5 minutes at the end…

EURO 2020 - Group F 1:11:18

France, Germany, Hungary, Portugal. The world's a mess, and it's the Group of F. Orban's a dick, we might agree with a lot of the mayor of Munich's politics but he's a prick too, let's hope the football is good. Why have we run out of motivation? It's weird, because we've been loving the EUROs so much. Maybe it is the England results always being so disappointing, but I think some of sports purity has been lost (if it was even there to begin with) and it is disheartening to watch people deliberately manipulate it. Have a listen, or don't. We're tired.…

Spain, Sweden, Poland, Slovakia, what unites them all? The increasing influence of Right-Wing politics and being in Group E at this year's EURO tournament! Well, Dom isn't sure about Slovakia because he ran out of time to research it, but Dave knows... his... stuff! Why are Spain so 'toothless' this year? Why are the press kissing Robert Lewandowski's butt? And what are their predictions for how the group will turn out? There's only one place to find the answers!…

49:09

Marko Arnautovic posted "I AM NOT A RACIST" online after his outburst against the ethnic Albanian players on the North Macedonian team landed him a one-game ban. Only a one-game ban for racism? UEFA has threatened more action against Cristiano Ronaldo for moving a bottle of Coke! This tournament has provided great football and controversy in equal measure, and here the boys go into why UEFA is hypocritical on issues of race, sponsorship, and corruption. It gets heated!…

EURO 2020 - Group D 54:13

54:13

Group D: Croatia, Czech Republic, England, Scotland. Is it coming home? Probably not, but the boys can hope! England got a good result against Croatia and Dave explains why Gareth Southgate's unorthodox tactical choices paid off. Dom, unsurprisingly, has curt words for British Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, and discusses why Nicola Sturgeon is so important for the Scottish Independence movement.…

North Macedonia... Austria, the Netherlands, Ukraine and... oh, did I mention the mighty North Macedonia? Dave and Dom have been watching as much of the EUROs as possible, so much in fact that they're even watching North Macedonia v Austria while recording this episode! Dave praises the Ukrainian squad and their amazing qualifying run and how the Dutch are hard to predict despite the quality of their team. Dom, it turns out, doesn't like some of those Austrian players, and discusses why Ukraine's kit became so controversial. They also start a new segment: 'sponsors that can fuck off' and debate why UEFA specifically chooses sponsors determined to discard human rights.…

Recorded before the Denmark v Finland game, the boys go in-depth on Group B: Belgium, Denmark, Finland, and Russia. Dave explains the battle of the strikers in a group boasting Romelu Lukaku, Artem Dzyuba, and Teemu Pukki. Dom continues to crush over his far more handsome look-alike, Kasper Schmeichel, discusses the Russian opposition leader, Alexei Navalny, and why China's President Xi Jinping doesn't like Winnie The Pooh.…

It's finally here! EURO 2020 is about to kick off... and only one year late! The boys dive into an exploration of the politics and footballing prowess of Group A: Italy, Turkey, Switzerland, and Wales. What does the rise of the Brothers of Italy mean for the games being played in Rome? And just how has a gangster-turned-YouTuber turned Turkish politics on its head? This is the only podcast where you'll find out!…
