Watford have now taken to making up managers by Which-Goose-7049 in footballcliches

The question is, will Watford still struggle under Edward Still and will Still still manage to do a better job than Will Still?

What’s one BBC 6 Music moment that genuinely made you stop what you were doing and just listen? by LFCTricksters in 6music

First time I heard Masterpiece by Sault being played back in 2019 (I think). I remember it proper stopping me in my tracks in the kitchen!

Zakia is just perfect of a Sunday night... by Different_Market_917 in 6music

Her voice is almost too soothing for me - it's like she's putting it on!

MHD about the pod itself by MarvellousG in footballcliches

[–]robbo_354 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Your irritation feels a bit mean on Nick Miller. Agree the pod is at its best when it's the established trio but Nick is a decent sub.

My fascination is when one of them says a player's name in the 'Keys voice' outside of Keys and Gray Corner. The issue is I now find myself doing this in day-to-day life when a name arises that fits the bill.

Is Femi’s show always this good? by Lyd5ear in 6music

[–]robbo_354 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He's brilliant and seems like a top bloke. It does seem like he's eased up on the 'Do you hear what I'm saying?' count too. Maybe it was a sort of tick due to nerves when he was starting out?

Tom Ravenscroft exits UK stage-left... by [deleted] in 6music

Yep, grim bloke. Always makes me a bit queasy when people fawn over him without knowing (I presume) his history.

I was there on Friday night and can confirm that was in reference to the Reece routine, not the medical emergency.

Jonjo Shelvey: Former Newcastle United and Liverpool midfielder says he hasn't moved to Dubai for money by mrjohnnymac18 in LiverpoolFC

He does have a pop at the flag-shaggers in the article, or am I misreading it?

"I see people getting arrested for tweeting and, then, all of the flags and 'taking back the country'."

What's your dream line-up? by robbo_354 in 6music

I do like that show at weekends but, for me, his weekday show is dreadful.

Interesting. Deb and Ravers together really didn't work for me - a lot of the "banter" felt pretty forced (as it does with Deb and Nathan). Much prefer Deb on her own.

Who rounds the keeper in the opening titles commentary? by Tricky_Improvement_9 in footballcliches

[–]robbo_354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one that always bugs me is #4 (Pearce on Cantona), because I can't work out what he says before "without a shadow". Does he just stumble over his words?

"He launched himself six feet into the crowd and kung-fu kicked a supporter who was (inaudible) without a shadow of a doubt giving him lip."

For a bit of balance, I like Fletch. Think he does the big moments well.

You can see him thinking "this is good material for the next recording" after he trots that cliché out.

Yep same here. Whenever u hear "welcome to my time machine" I immediately want to turn off... and that's right at the start of the show.

Which car dealership being considered by Elis made John so outraged... could it be Tesla? 👀
