Episode 53: Talk Di Ting A Lings

The Banter Pub FC Podcast

*rummages around inside the BPFC Time Capsule*
By Jove, it's another full episode of The World's Greatest Podcast™©®; brought to you by the sauciest team in the game with undoubtedly the spiciest takes on the pitch. Judging by the contents of this episode? This one might as well be marinaded in ghost chilli sauce because hoo boy! That's a spicy meat-a-ball!
This episode (recorded 3 June 2021) sees El Capitan Neal, Ama, Adam, Jonathan, and Joseph sliding into The Pub to discuss Manchester City bottling it in the UEFA Champions League final against Chelsea; the European football manager carousel which includes (but isn't limited to) Antonio Conte's departure from Inter Milan, Carlo Ancelotti moving back to Real Madrid, Massimiliano Allegri returning to Juventus, and more; the Major League Soccer, United Soccer League, and National Women's Soccer League tables in a fiery edition of Around The Pitch.
The Main Segment sees the boys previewing how they thought UEFA EURO 2020 was going to go down. They each make their picks (most of them were horribly wrong except for Jonathan), discussing which teams will surprise and which teams will disappoint. It's a wild ride, we have to say. Kicking off Extra Time, everyone weighs in on the announcement of Major League Soccer's creation of an artificial promotion/relegation system and what implications that it will have on the United States football pyramid going forward. To conclude, the mandem each take some time (some going longer than the allotted 30 seconds, we'll grant you... but we've paid the costs to be the bosses) to talk about what was on their minds that week.
#BingeTheBanter rolls on as we get two more episodes and a Set Piece ready for that ass. Act like you know.
The Pub Awaits.
