2:58Charlie Eccleshare:Hello everyone and welcome to Football Clichés. I'm Adam Hurry, this is the Adjudication Panel. Joining me from New York City, Charlie Eccleshire. How are you doing? Very well, thank you. Good to have you. Alongside you, David Walker. Dave, you met the great Excalibur, professional wrestling's number one clichés listener, on Sunday night, I understand. I did, and very happy to report that Excalibur and indeed Mrs. Excalibur are both lovely people. it's great great to chat to them he sorted me and some mates out for their show at the o2 on sunday night and we had a nice time did ask him about uh the moment where he i think it's fair to say jumped the shark and um mentioned ribblesdale rovers live on american television and he did say that immediately he received a message from one of his superiors basically saying what the hell are you on about mate oh proof fight definitive proof that he pushed the pushed it too far Charlie I think.
3:54How did he explain it? I'm not quite sure really I think he did try and explain the pod or whatever but I imagine that we have a hard enough time explaining the pod that we've done for five years. Yeah I think that would raise a lot more questions than answer them. Basically all I was doing was
4:09Charlie Eccleshare:Well it raises his chances of making a surprise appearance at one of the football cliches live events in 2025 you can join us in Brighton, Cardiff Hackney Empire in London, Birmingham Dublin or Manchester Leeds in Glasgow sold out if you go to tickets.footballcliches.com to see us live in the flesh in October and everything that comes with it. It's going to be brilliant. Right, adjudication panel. Some matters to take care of from last week. A source of mine has got in touch to explain what happened with the Sky Sports League table. Dave, last week, the operator simply set it up the wrong way round.
4:42Charlie Eccleshare:It wasn't an editorial let's sit back and watch the world burn moment. This is like demanding an explanation from PGML about something, isn't it? Yeah, it is. And much like with PGMOL, it seems that it was just a case of human error. And that's fine. Yeah. That's fine. And if we can get over it, so should everybody else, the surprising number of people who couldn't get over it at the time. Charlie, elsewhere, speaking of PGMOL, their HQ, Stockley Park, the canteen saga continues. They laid on a food truck in lieu of the canteen, but not enough people took them up on it. So they've now withdrawn the food truck.
5:18Charlie Eccleshare:What do you want? Oh, my God. I'm curious about this food truck was it kind of like lots of different you know cuisines from around the world sort of festively vibe doesn't feel very Stockley Park sort of outside broadcast kind of truck with sort of various hot dishes but God knows but yeah so now they've just said look there's some microwaves on in both buildings just get on with it so wow tense times at Stockley Park so if that affects VAR's performance or VAR starts to slip again we're going to know why because they're not adequately nourished Now, I don't know what to make of this next item.
5:54Charlie Eccleshare:Dave, this is Celebs Go Dating on E4 last week. I'm literally going to say this. Everything else... How are you? Hold on, who's this bloke? How are you going? Surely not. That's ex-Everton Watford and Burnley football manager, Sean Dyche. Is Sean one of her ex-husbands? You good? You're dating these Normaners now, are you? Yeah. He's a lover. Are you OK? Nice to meet you. Yeah, yeah. I'll leave you to it. Just wanted to say hello. And is it anything you've got to stay out on a date then? Paolo is still sat there, Kerry. I'm doing well. He's lovely. I'm sick of when we've gone. I'm going to stay.
6:35Good. Love to see you.
6:37Charlie Eccleshare:Thank you. Bye-bye. Thank you. Take care. Dave, why is Sean Dyche making a 40-second cameo on Celebs Go Take? Why does he need to? Wow. I mean, this really is an unexpected stop on the publicity tour and the efforts to get himself a new job. It's not the obvious place you'd think you'd go after the No Tippi Tappi football podcast, is it? But fair play. Charlie, it's annoying that they didn't shoehorn in a sort of short segment where sort of Kerry Katona asked him about his methods of playing football and whether they're still relevant in today's game. Or for some really tortured love football dating analogies, thought that'd be the next step.
7:14Yeah.
7:14Charlie Eccleshare:I fear for where this is going, Dave. I don't want Sean Dyche to go into the jungle. Yeah. I do think he'd be quite well suited to it. Yeah. I think he'd be quite good in the jungle, actually. He ticks a lot of the boxes. He'd get stuck into the challenges, wouldn't he? I can see him around the campfire. Yeah. He's very jungly, Charlie. Yeah. You know, if he really did actually give up on his football management career, he's so jungly because like not only is he sort of relatively well known amongst a certain demographic, but he's got that sort of caricature that suits going into the jungles. Like this hardy man who's quite resourceful.
7:54Charlie Eccleshare:I'll conquer this. Yeah, old school values. And like, you know, fearless about eating all the horrible things, that kind of thing. It could actually, like, if he decides that he's sort of credibility isn't an issue football wise, it could actually be quite, I can imagine him actually being, getting quite big from it. I think people would love him. Like, he could really sort of explode and win a whole new audience. Yeah, I just, I don't think he's quite at that stage of his career. I can't believe that he's given up yet. And there's no necessarily any signs that he's done that, but one to watch in the next five years or so.
8:27Charlie Eccleshare:What was the context for that clip, though? Do we know why he was on it? Is he mate of Gary Katona? Obviously he is. Obviously way back from the Tommy Kitten days because he was big into them. Oh yeah. Lovely Tommy. Saw them at Nebworth as well. Right, over to this weekend's Premier League action all the way back to Friday night. Here's a stat for you. Lucas Pacitar becomes only the third player to score West Ham's first Premier League goal in consecutive seasons. Dave. I mean, I really do. I'm genuinely concerned about the stat packification of Premier League football. Why does there have to be an angle like this?
9:04In a way, though, the way the stats worded becomes only the third player to score West Ham's first Premier League on consecutive seasons. It's like I'm surprised that there's been that many. Yeah, exactly. I don't want to be facetious about it, but I really, yeah, I don't think third is a particularly impressive low number.
9:21Charlie Eccleshare:It's incredible what the algorithms are spitting out these days. Anyway, what I thought was the big story from West Ham's thrashing by Chelsea on Friday night, Charlie, was the sort of accelerating despair of Graham Potter. We've seen this version of Graham Potter before, having to field questions about his team's malaise. But poor old Graham Potter. I honestly can't remember a manager so visibly sick of being asked why his team are shit and how he and they are going to fix it. And then, after all of that, he was faced with this. we're all responsible we all have to do better there's nobody throwing anybody under the bus here it's it's a collective effort we have to do better is it something that's sorted out in terms of team meetings or is it sorted out on the training ground a bit of both to be honest Charlie the problem with that bit of both is like clearly very unwelcome bit of both thing for Graham Potter to field but those weren't polar opposite enough options those were two things Yeah.
10:18Charlie Eccleshare:It could quite clearly coexist. Yeah, yeah, exactly. That is a really weird one. I'm sort of surprised he entertains it, but I guess he sort of snookered at that point. We are very close to Graham Potter not entertaining these type of questions. He really is close to the end of his tether. However, Dave, Jamie Redknapp was on Sky appraising Graham Potter's ability to read the riot act to his West Ham squad. Yeah, I'm not sure I see him as that sort of guide. I don't see him as a sandwich thrower or throwing the teacups or anything like that. He's just going to be like, okay, we've got to find a way.
10:48We've got to pick ourselves up. We're going to have to work hard in training.
10:50Charlie Eccleshare:Interesting to see that sandwiches have overtaken teacups as the number one missile of choice in the dressing room. I mean, don't throw the sandwiches. That won't hurt. Maybe that's the sort of person he actually is. He'll throw a sandwich at you and it'll hurt a little bit. It will surprise you. I mean, it's so tough on him because clearly so much of this whole, like, am I tough enough sort of act, like it all feels like that Ed Miliband interview. And then he's still, despite doing all this, still got people like Redknapp saying, oh I don't think he's that kind of guy. He must be like but I keep saying I keep trying to be tough and saying I don't care what you think and it's really not moving the dial.
11:22You think of the sandwiches that they're being thrown it's like the small little triangle ones that have been cut up that you'd find a spread at an event.
11:32Charlie Eccleshare:Flying through the air like a ninja star. They'd all just come apart in the air wouldn't they? Depends on the filling. They can be quite tightly lettuce lying around. If it's mayo based you might be alright but BLT is, as you say, going to disintegrate mid-air. The big result of the weekend, perhaps, was Manchester City 0-Tottenham 2-Charlie. A game prefaced by Pep being asked this at a press conference, which irritated me in at least three ways. Can you put your finger on it? Are they a bogey side? Sorry? Are they a bogey side? Bogey? A difficult side. Bad luck. No, bad luck. I'll tell you what annoyed me.
12:13Charlie Eccleshare:the question itself being posed in a way that he didn't understand it pep's pep's confusion in having to say the word bogey and then the inability of the question to tell him what it actually means because clearly when put on the spot i don't think anybody could quite sort of summarize what bogey team actually means it's not about bad luck it's about it's about essentially a curse isn't it but in a yeah i was gonna say backed up by actual football ability yeah i think cursed would have been the best way to get him to understand it quickly but i guess it does show what we've about before that we say so many of these things and it's just like well i don't need to define it it's that's what it is like that's what it's been forever i've never thought to actually break it down i don't want to hear pep guardiola say bogey again day yeah and it also didn't help that the the question was from the guy with a scottish accent either it just just made it that little bit harder for pep to to understand there's no point to getting around this accents will make this whole scenario harder so you're gonna have to work harder to make yourself clear that's just a fact.
13:12Charlie Eccleshare:So there were so many obstacles there and none of them were overcome in any style. Because Pep did repeat him and he looked at his interpreter at the side and sort of said, boogie?
13:24Charlie Eccleshare:Like Jan Moby taking on a Scouse accent. Right, next up, this is Thomas Frank being interviewed on Match of the Day after Spurs' win. Is it a win, just a win, or is it a statement win? It's probably one of the better ones and coming here to JTAT against Pep City is a very tough task. So a win here is, of course, a top one. Andy Bradley asks, Charlie, do we have a definition of when a win becomes a statement win? Was this a statement win for Spurs? Do you think it ticks most of the boxes? Yes and no. Like, I think it depends like a statement of what. I mean, because I think it's also a win where we don't fully know yet really what it means.
14:04It's so early in the season. It's so early in Thomas Frank's reign. And most likely, it's not like Spurs are going to be going for the title. So I think like a statement win is more team beats title rival away from home. And it's a massive show of credentials and a dial mover in like a fuck, they might actually be genuine this season. Like, are they favourites now? Like, I think it needs to move the dial more. This was a great win, but I don't think people are now saying, God, Spurs could go on and win the league now. I think what the, to go back to the bogey team thing as well, I think the fact that Spurs' record against Man City in recent seasons is so notably good undermines the fact that it could be a you know it's potential to be a statement win as well yeah when christian stellini has beaten peps guardiola for spurs it becomes a
14:50Charlie Eccleshare:bit less statementy so a statement win charlie can't be a statement about the manager themselves and what they're all about it has to be about the team's sort of expectations and aims for the season and they're pushing themselves into the picture for to being challengers yeah i think so i think that's kind of the the pure form of a statement i think i think if they beat arsenal or Liverpool, but obviously Arsenal being the rivals, like in a few months' time, I don't know when the first North London derby is this season, but if they were to like really comfortably beat them, and like you say, Charlie, it confirmed the fact that they're actually the real deal.
15:22It is still too early.
15:23Charlie Eccleshare:Yes, I agree with that. Yeah, still definitely potential for Tottenham to produce a statement win this season though. Next up, here's Dean Ashton on Talk Sport talking about Manchester City's increasingly infamous high line. look teams are going to look at this manchester city high line as i would do as a forward i mean i would look at that and it's like you know a properly filled jam donut every part of you just wants to bite it jam all down your chin and your shirt because you want to rush it whereas if you patient nibble around the edge patient with the ball over the top then you are going to catch them if you're clever and you're patient with the movement as tottenham have been at times that's when you will get the joy.
16:05Charlie Eccleshare:Dave, I love how gently this analogy just falls apart. At the start, you're like, okay, all right, let's see where this is going. And then eventually, there's no comparison made whatsoever. It did fall apart much like a donut would, I suppose. Why do you need to be impatient with a donut, Charlie? Just get stuck in, straight to the filling. Well, I guess because he's saying if you are impatient, it's going to go everywhere, it's messy. I mean, maybe it's a subtle nod to the famous marshmallow test that They used to do at Stanford University, which is all about delayed gratification. And that's kind of what he's getting at.
16:39He's like, just take your time. It wouldn't surprise me. Dean Ashton is such a knowledge forward. Knowing Dean Ashton.
16:45Charlie Eccleshare:What a shout that would be. Right, over to the Emirates now, where Arsenal thrashed Leeds 5-0 on Saturday. Charlie, was this the ultimate, these games won't define their season situation for Leeds? Yeah, yeah. Publits couldn't wait to say that after the game, but it ticked all those boxes as well. Absolutely. I mean, didn't Farka say something to that effect as well? Right. I mean, I remember this took on another layer one year when with one of the newly promoted clubs, and it was a, it was like a Blackpool, I don't think it was Blackpool, but it was one of those teams, like a really unfancy team.
17:16And it was said, it was like, you know, they'll almost have a list of games they think they can take points in. You know, that's what they'll be doing. And I always wondered, I was like, would a team do that? Because that also seems like really defeatist to be like, look, we're going to lose today, boys. Just focus on West Ham next week.
17:30Charlie Eccleshare:That's a really interesting question, Dave. You know, how mainstream should this theory get that these games are free hits and, you know, you could essentially go into them and not worry about the result? And how formalised do you think it is behind the scenes? Do you think they sort of, you know, highlight them on a fictionalist and go, don't worry about those, mate, it's fine. But then it just increases the pressure on those so-called winnable games as well. If you lose one or you don't get the points, then you really are fucked. But, I mean, you know, as good as Arsenal are, there's been teams that have gone to the Emirates in the last few seasons and have got unexpected points or whatever.
18:03So I don't imagine if that feels something a little bit more Barclays era for want of a better term. You know, I think...
18:12Charlie Eccleshare:When it was really hopeless to be an away team. We've come on a little bit since then. I don't think teams are going to be that defeatist internally, at least. I mean, you could spin it round, Charlie, and say, you know, those precious points that you win at your arsenals and your Chelsea's, they could be the ones that keep you up. That's the difference maker. I mean, there are occasionally times, aren't there, where teams will like rest players for like City away or something because they're like, we're not going to get anything out of this. Whatever we do, we may as well. We may as well keep up out of the drive.
18:41Charlie Eccleshare:Well, that is formal recognition of it then in that case. Exactly, yeah. Like I think that you do get a little bit of that. And obviously then everyone else, all the fan bases of their rivals would go mad at a team for doing that. Meanwhile, Charlie, news emerging that Arsenal exploring a deal to sign Bayer Leverkusen defender, Pierre Hinccapier. And Lighthouse3141 says, on a recent pod you named Tour de France cyclists as potential Premier League players and their positions. This Premier League target is definitely a lead-out man for Alpersin de Kerninck. He's got such a cycli name. He's amazing.
19:10Charlie Eccleshare:Yeah, he does. You couldn't AI a more cycli footballer name than this. Yeah, he doesn't really look like one, unfortunately. His vibe is quite footballery. They don't have beards, do they? Don't have little beards, do they, cyclists? They're very smooth. They need to be aerodynamic, yeah. Yeah. Marginal gains. Now, Craven Cottage, on Sunday, David. Quite an interesting game from start to finish. But at the very end, Fulham 1, Manchester United 1. Peter Drury hands back to the Sky studio. However you read it, it's a point either way, Kelly. It's Fulham 1, Manchester United 1. Peter and Gary, thank you very much.

19:47Charlie Eccleshare:As you say, it is shared spoiled at the end of that game. This really is the number one spoonerism in football. I love it. And I love it so much. And I haven't quite got sort of acclimatised to it, but I love it so much that I think it can now exist and you know what it means. Like, even if you said it to somebody who had no idea of football, I think they could sort of vaguely get the sentiment. But yeah, Cher's spoiled. I love it. It's easily done. It really is. It's not the first time I've heard it. Although, is it, you know, Kelly Cates doing Saturday night, then doing Sunday, the Match of the Day gig taking its toll early doors?
20:23Charlie Eccleshare:I could see a Daily Mail article about this burnout for the Match of the Day tree She'd also done a US Open preview show with me on Five Live earlier in the week. So there we go. They're coming thick and fast. It's like the athletic tennis writer just rocking up and doing a irreverent football cliches podcast on a Monday morning. Anyway, next up, James Garner's goal versus Brighton, Dave, to make it 2-0 for Everton at their new stadium. Zach Howell says, I'd like to submit this as the cliches definition of a pile driver. I'm 100 % behind this. It's very, very specific. It's the exact sort of long-range goal that is so pile-driving.
21:03Charlie Eccleshare:The ball coming across the player, their body right over the ball. Everything is designed to keep the ball low, not just to get the shot on target. It's very specifically designed to rifle it in. And it's that specific act of shooting that makes it pile-driving. I think it's, yeah, because there's no build-up to the shot. They're not striding onto it, you know, with the ball at their feet. It's being laid on a plate for them, and then they sort of have to dig it out. And that's what makes it really pile-driving for me. I'm not sure that I agree with that. I think in my head, a pile driver was a bit higher.
21:32If you'd asked me for a typical, like classic pile driver goal, I would go for Stephen Reid, Blackburn against Wiggety. So you're going high. He just absolutely smashes it. He's running onto the ball and it just, I think at the time it was like the hardest shot or the fastest shot recorded in the Premier League. Yeah, so it sort of rises. Whereas you think a pile driver is a low and hard strike.
21:56Charlie Eccleshare:Pile drivers by definition should be grounded efforts. That's the whole point, aren't they? Surely. I'm with Adam. I'm with Adam on this one, I have to say. I do think that one was. Yeah. Adam was really fearing another come of the hour in that situation. no i i think that yeah i do think that was textbook because it's quite rare you see someone whose principal aim just seems to be getting loads of power on it which is what yet which is what that shot was yesterday it was just like i want to smack this really hard yeah no i think that read one's just something slightly different that's kind of a its own kind of genre i think the fact that it went in at the near post kind of emphasizes its power as well yeah it's driviness rather than the expansiveness of going in at the other post so yeah it's just like everything is geared to getting the ball to the goal as quickly and directly as possible i'm just going to smack it with like a straight leg into the near post shortest distance to travel and it thumped into the net it didn't bounce back out and it didn't it wasn't welcomed into the net either it was a bit of both it just sort of just because it hit the camera i think which kind of killed the ball dead so that that kind of business like burying of the ball made it very pile-driving maybe steven reed is the dreaded Thunderbastard territory.
23:06Charlie Eccleshare:Oh no. Must resist. We must resist. Thanks to Zach Howells. We'll take a short break. We'll be back very shortly.

It's Hill-Dickinson Stadium, which I think we should all be very mindful of.
26:08Charlie Eccleshare:I read a tweet that said the crowd at Everton's new stadium registered a noise level of 126 decibels in the second half of the Premier League game against Brighton. That puts it in the top five loudest recorded noises at a football stadium anywhere. Incredible for a first game. What a ridiculous caveat at the end. If anything, that makes it more likely. They're only just getting started. What, they're going to find their feet? I don't know. No teething problems here. That's an absolutely mad little disclaimer at the end. Adam Gray writes in, Dave, and says, Everton's new ground is Hill Dickinson Stadium.
26:40Charlie Eccleshare:How long do they have to play there before everyone drops the word stadium when describing it, as we have with the Emirates, Etihad and Vitality. Vitality is probably a late comer to this equation, but it is definitely in it. But can you anticipate Hill Dickinson getting there? The difference with this one is the fact that it's got two names, slightly more unwieldy. I think over time, might one of the two, either Hill or Dickinson, emerge as the one we go for? Down at the Dickinson. We're away at the Dickinson today. You can't give it surname treatment, Charlie. But it's interesting because for a while, certainly before the naming rights were announced, I thought Bramley Moore might sort of prevail as the kind of universally accepted way of describing Everton's new ground.
27:26Charlie Eccleshare:But it's also a bit Ashburton Grove, isn't it, Bramley Moore? Now they've got a sponsor or a naming rights partner for it. That's completely out the window. and we should also bear in mind that it kind of doesn't matter that it's a sponsor. It's the name of the stadium. It will catch on and just sort of immerse itself in our footballing consciousness. Yeah. Do you feel a bit like out of practice with new stadiums? Like I feel there was a time where there were loads of them popping up, whereas it feels like ages since we've really had one, especially for like a really prominent Premier League club.
27:54Just like having a new name and new visuals to get your head around has been quite odd.
28:00Charlie Eccleshare:Certainly for Everton, because they were so associated with where they played, more than any other club, I think. Yeah, there is a chance that if not Bramley Moore, it might still be referred to in relation to the docks. Because it's so obvious, the location of it is so prominent. It's not like an out-of-town stadium. It's an amazing sight, it really is. It's like Fulham, you're never ever going to see a shot of it without it being from above. and she can see the river and the whole thing, aren't you? No one's dared to comment on this, but it's pure NFL. There's something very NFL about it. It's called setting and its design.
28:36Charlie Eccleshare:It does look a bit like that. But, you know, that doesn't mean it's a bad stadium by any stretch. Now, Donnie and Mui want to remind us of this item on the Clichés podcast 13 months ago. Right, next up, Chris Smith alerts us to this quote from Iliman Injai, who has signed for Everton. And I've never heard a footballer acknowledge, even the prospect of this. On playing a part in Everton's last ever season at Goodison Park, and Jai added, it's funny because someone said to me, imagine you scoring the first goal at the new stadium. It would be a quiz question for so long. Who scored the first goal for Everton at the new stadium?
29:10Charlie Eccleshare:At that moment, my daughter, who can't really talk yet, said, Dada, great answer. That's my target. Aiming to be a quiz question answer. This is incredible scenes. I love it. I'm in love with this player already. It makes sense. I think you would be really motivated to score that first goal at the new stadium. Son scored the first goal at Tottenham Stadium. And it's a lovely thing to have. And he only went and did it, Dave. He's only gone and done it. He is the quiz question. He's completed it. And to make it even more of a quiz question, he scored the last goal at Goodison as well. Incredible.
29:41Charlie Eccleshare:Oh, yeah, so that happened in between. Yeah. Astonishing. I'm not claiming any sort of crystal ball, you know, credit on our behalf here, Charlie, but this is really tidy. I'm glad to see if someone's sort of achieved that life mission, niche as it was. Yeah, we will have to include it as a quiz question at some point as well to kind of close this off. How long can it be before it becomes a quiz question that you would get wrong? I don't know. I mean, I think nowadays things move so quickly. It wouldn't have to take that long. I think in a few years people would sort of have forgotten about this.
30:13Charlie Eccleshare:I hope so, just for the purposes of quiz building. I could see it actually being a quiz question, like a football sports question in a general knowledge pub quiz, like pretty soon. So, you know, you're not going to, you know, the career we go lads aren't going to include it in their quiz, you know, at the volley. But if you just go to a random pub quiz, I could see this being quite a good one. Like not everyone's going to know that. But they would have to name Illiman and Jai, which makes it quite difficult for the average layman. in football. This was interesting from Kieran Tavam. He says, Whenever a team plays at a new stadium, Everton in this case, I always look at what other ground it looks like when viewing on TV.
30:55Charlie Eccleshare:I'm interested to know what the Hill Dickinson reminds you of. It had Amex vibes on first viewing. He's spot on here, Charlie. As soon as this game started, I was trying to work out what the camera angle made this stadium look like. A bit King Power-y for me on the halfway line, but when it got to either end, it didn't look like anything. Like it's really unique looking stadium. So maybe a bit Spurs-y, which kind of makes sense. Very Spurs-y for me. I think it looks a lot like the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, especially like once you lose the blue, like the blue bit could be a bit misleading, but where there were pockets, where there weren't tons of home shirts, it's really Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for me.
31:32Charlie Eccleshare:This, Dave, this may sound barrel scrapingly niche topic to talk about, but I think this is the essence of football consciousness, certainly from a TV watching perspective. You know, twinning stadiums together, This is the sort of knowledge that people should have. Yeah, it's going to... Stadium cousins. It will just take a little bit of time to sort of seep into our footballing subconscious, as it were. It looks quite steep, doesn't it? Yeah. Behind the goals, which is quite similar to the new Spurs stadium. But the behind the goal angle... Sorry, looking at the end from the side, looking at the goal.
32:05It looks a little bit like Brentford's as well, the GTEC, I think. Quite concrete. I mean, obviously all stadiums are concrete, but it looks noticeably concrete-y, doesn't it?
32:17Charlie Eccleshare:It's a lick of paint. One thing I don't like about it, certainly from the camera angle perspective, Dave, is that you can very visibly see the gate numbers above the tunnels. Not for our benefit. It shouldn't be that large. There's no need for them to be that large. Why are they so visible from our side? Useless. Quite helpful for spotting yourself in the crowd, though. I suppose. They make it look like a stadium from a fake sort of betting advert game, though. so that's the slight worry. Johnny Wilde writes in next, Charlie, and says, in need of some adjudication here, Sunderland's playoff final win last season was a huge sliding doors moment for the future of the club.
32:51Charlie Eccleshare:My mate argues that playoff final wins are too big an event to be considered sliding doors. I still think it works, but what's your verdict? I get the logic here. I mean, it's almost designed to be a sliding doors moment now, so is it too obvious? Well, that's a good point, because I think we've moved so far away from the original sliding doors, because obviously the point of it in the film, anyways that it's like this seemingly innocuous moment that completely transforms the path of someone's life yeah now we just say any big moment kind of which isn't what it should mean so i think um yeah i think uh johnny wild's mate is on to something it's like it would be like saying oh god jose marino going to chelsea no but like in life like you know you got married and imagine if you didn't imagine if you didn't marry her like yeah i know it was a big the biggest moment with my life actually yeah the birth of my first child the real sliding doors moment yeah i love something got really harder and arguably better yeah um yeah so what is a good sliding doors moment in football either sort of hypothetically or real charlie well i think in football wouldn't it be something like you know the moment where fergie where leeds inquired about dennis irwin and then that transformed the whole landscape of english football forevermore when seemingly giving a call a team about, sorry, giving a team a call about a left back would not seem to be a momentous moment in the history of football.
34:11Charlie Eccleshare:Yeah, there needs to be an element of butterfly effect involved. It can't just be a butterfly flapped its wings and a butterfly has flapped its wings. Like that's not enough. Exactly. Yeah, good shout. Johnny Wilds, your mate is correct. Now we haven't had one of these for ages, but I think this might be the best of all. Forever Cynical writes in Charlie and says, Steve Cram has just said this on the BBC's coverage of the Lausanne Diamond League.
34:52Charlie Eccleshare:I think this might be the most ridiculous knowledgeable crowd I've ever heard it's a long jump for fuck's sake what knowledge do you need oh no I think he's just got over the line there shades of Bob Beeman there from 1968 you say that but there's probably a bigger divergence in knowledge of long jump you know possible in some ways you know a lot of people are going to know absolutely nothing or most people if you do know a bit a little bit of a prevailing wind oh yeah Lausanne does strike me as a sort of quite athletics-y sort of place though well he was a home he was like a home athlete as well so you know they were cheering him on but that their knowledge ability doesn't come into the equation there.
35:32Charlie Eccleshare:Did they know he was Swiss? Well done. Congratulations. Absolutely not. It's just, Charlie, we are now into a phase where you feel like you can just say it and you'll be accepted. Well, no, you won't fucking be accepted. I won't have it, Steve Cram. It is essentially meaningless. Yeah. Yeah. On a similar note, this came from George Ware. He was Swansea's new signing Marco Stamanić, proving he's 100 % committed to the cause. Competition is healthy and it's what will drive all of us to be the best possible versions of ourselves. So I think that is really important and that's something that I strive to implement when I come into the team.
36:08I'm always giving my 100 % and I die for the sleeve and for the club and that's what I intend to do here. Don't die for the sleeve. It's probably a crypto sponsor. That's absolutely mad.
36:20Charlie Eccleshare:But at the same time, Charlie, I can see how it's sort of crept into his brain to say. Yeah, he might have just meant shirt and then sort of popped in somehow. He caught sight of his sleeve. Dying for the sleeve. It reminds me, all the way back in 2014, my brother alerted me, Dave, to someone on TalkSport, a drunk caller into TalkSport, saying that Tim Sherwood, then at Spurs, wears his sleeve on his badge. Which doesn't work either way. Oh, isn't it funny? The football cliches, language being mangled. This came from Colin McBride next. A lovely variation on For My Sins. it's a story Dave about a Rangers fan who was caught drink driving following their defeat to Club Bruges in the Champions League qualifiers he was also he was also arrested for driving with burst tyres and possessing a knife with intent to commit grievous bodily harm other charges included possessing a hammer disorderly behaviour assaulting a van driver by approaching him with a hammer and obstructing a police officer so quite a rap sheet there yeah and um you know what this fucking podcast has done to my brain like yeah I really want to say a listen fair play but obviously we shouldn't do for any of those things what basis would that be a listen fair play what just because it was such a long rap sheet I don't know it just yeah right okay interesting anyway applying for bail his solicitor Paddy McDermott told Deputy District Judge John Connolly for his sins he is a fan of Glasgow Rangers and he was so angry following their dismal performance on Tuesday that for no reason he got into his car and drove what a deployment of for my sins for somebody else in their defensive court that actually might work Charlie that is incredible also isn't it quite a loaded thing to say like about Rangers and Celtic given all the religious background and that sort of thing like you could be opening him up to even worse sectarian abuse that's certainly part of the equation but I'm just stunned that a solicitor would think how can I soften this how can I soften this a jaunty little phrase for things that are essentially beyond his control despite the fact he chose which team we supported he just went and did this so sorry it's that football for you God, it makes you do silly things, doesn't it?
38:27Charlie Eccleshare:Yeah, Russell Martin. He's having a real time of it at the moment. Yeah, she used to have got it. Russell Martin's team are, play out from the back and it is quite infuriating to watch. Mitigating circumstances there. My goodness. Right, this is from the BBC Live text from Tottenham's unfolding win at Manchester City, Charlie. And it says, remember the frantic spurs of last season? This Tottenham team is already oozing stability. A sense of optimism not felt for a long time. Funes El Memorioso says, can you ooze stability? I'm not having that as an oozeable substance. It's a funny thing for something like, given we're used to it being the more kind of aspirational, like confidence or something like that.
39:11Stability, obviously a lot less sexy. I mean... Why can't you ooze stability though? Yeah, I sort of, I think you can. It just sounds very odd.
39:20Charlie Eccleshare:I think it's, I guess, Dave, it's not something you necessarily need an excess of. like confidence oozing is fine, class, you can ooze that too. Yeah. But you can't have too much of either of those things, but can you have too much stability? I suppose you probably could. Yeah, but I also don't know if it really works. I don't like it at all. Are they oozing stability? They've won a couple of games. I mean, it was only 25 minutes into the game as well. They hadn't even scored, so. They do look very organised. I suppose so, yeah. Sort of, which. Oozing organisation.

41:26Charlie Eccleshare:Right I think we're going to record the latest listeners Meza Harlan Dix on Wednesday so if you want to get involved and get your niche footballing fascination or irritation off your chest the one tiny thing about football that stimulates either way the one tiny thing about football that stimulates you either way and you wonder if anyone else has noticed it too send a 30 second voice note to footballcliches at gmail.com or you can DM it to me on Twitter or Instagram and we'll pick the best six. Right, down to the championship now, Dave. QPR, who were trailing 7-0 at Coventry, mustered a consolation goal, the scantest of consolation goals from Richard Kone in injury time.
42:04Charlie Eccleshare:And he went and hurriedly grabbed the ball out of the net. Is that performative? It must have been. I guess so. He's a new signing. He probably felt like he had to do it. But I mean, yeah, come on. Yeah, this is a scenario I don't think we've ever faced before, Charlie. And, you know, I think I'm basically answering my own question here. But obviously, there's no practical reason to do it. So does it appease the fans in any way to see a player do that? How gullible, how sort of malleable emotionally could you be? I think it is partly just a reflex, though, isn't it? It's like you're getting battered.
42:35Because you've got no other way of celebrating. Any other celebration would be ludicrous. To actually look happy would be ludicrous. So I think your mind just goes to, you know, that's what I do and I'm not happy with a celebration.
42:44Charlie Eccleshare:It would have been funnier if he'd wheeled away. Eventually. Knee slide. A knee slide. First goal for the club, maybe. Dave, I famously produced a matrix of the acceptability of grabbing the ball out of the net. And the matrix didn't even account for a team needing six more goals to draw level. It only went up to five goals needed with a minute left. That was the most extreme scenario I could think of. And that was 0 % acceptable. So this is basically sub-zero. Off the charts. Yeah, quite literally off the charts. Right. Connor McLaughlin writes in next, Charlie. and he says, I would love to be at the Match of the Day production meeting where the work experience boy is asked if he remembered to deal with the audio of the very sweary Bournemouth fan.
43:23Charlie Eccleshare:Yes, boss. Edited in really loud, almost over the top of the commentary, like you presumably wanted.
43:32Here's Smith. There's Brooks White. Kevin Nielsen in the middle.
43:38Charlie Eccleshare:Oh, he's taken away from his teammates. Emmanuel over. That is the loudest swearing I've ever heard on Match of the Day. They're highlighted by an absolute mile. I mean, I don't know if it was a Bournemouth fan. I don't know if it was a Wolves fan, presumably. But I don't know if they could or edit it out or they just forgot to do it. Bit of both. Not the same without the apologies for any fruity language you might have heard. I wouldn't want that on the highlights either. So I don't know. Imagine. Yeah. Just on that, though, in your intro to that, you said about the work experience boy. Why is that such an oft-used thing?
44:11The work experience. The interns. So you get a lot of, yeah, always getting labelled as gaff, man.
44:16Charlie Eccleshare:There's some very skilled video editors doing this job, by the way, Conor McLaughlin. It's not just some work experience boy making the tea and editing out swearing. Love this next, Charlie. Isaac writes in and says, My brother Ned and I were at the Arsenal match on Saturday, and after Saka and Erdogan went off injured, he mistakenly said they should bring Giocares off and wrap him in tin foil. After we stopped laughing at it, I was wondering whether it also might actually make sense to keep him warm. yeah like at the end of marathons people do that sometimes that's an amazing shout out i once got wrapped in tin foil after a judo competition that i entered i did not know about this against the advice of my of the coach or whatever i was i think i was about nine or something okay and yeah i got absolutely thrown around and they wrapped they put that foil around me oh no what belt did you get to by the way i never went back oh okay right okay i was gonna say you could do a dreamland episode on Dave's judo career.
45:10It was a real sliding doors moment for me actually, yeah. What could have been?
45:14Charlie Eccleshare:Could have been an Olympian, who knows. David Walker. I'm trying to think of a proverbial football reason why a player might be wrapped in proverbial tinfoil, Charlie. It might be like, I don't know, you wrap something in tinfoil to enjoy later, so like just don't use him in this game. Use him in a game where you really need him and he could flourish. So like taking a sandwich up a mountain or something like that, you wrap it in tinfoil. so that could be it rolling subs really come into its own yeah yeah leftovers keep them warm yeah Isaac that is brilliant thanks to Ned for uttering those immortal words right speaking of saving things for to the end to enjoy them even more it's time for Keys and Grey Corner
46:09Ford Super Sunday.
46:14Not your best speaking of. They all count.
46:20Charlie Eccleshare:Right. We were speaking the other day, Dave, about what we thought Richard Keyes' lager of choice might be, specifically in the context of a hotel lobby bar. We went for... Peroni, we thought. Peroni. A source has got in touch. I'm full of sources today. This is fantastic. He says there's a limited number of beers on tap in Qatar. Every establishment has almost the exact same fare. Your Heinekens, your Stellas, your Budweiser, your Guinnesses, if you're lucky. Keezy, Birra Moretti. Birra Moretti. Moretti class. We should have seen it. Yeah, we should have seen it. Kind of Birra Moretti, please.
46:56Charlie Eccleshare:Although all of this is interesting news, Charlie, especially in the light of what he said on Monday Night Football all those years ago. this via chief keys and gray archivist noza now this might be me jug of beer plenty of nuts and crisps you can sit there all night and not have to go back to the bar no no you would have a glass of chilled shabley not a jug of beer you know you don't drink beer so you could be you like your nuts and you like your crisps so you'll be all right my favorite bit of that charlie is andy gray saying you like your nuts you like your crisps as if that's a like little thing that he knows about Keese.
47:31Yeah.
47:32Charlie Eccleshare:They're designed to be liked. His niche-like of crisps and nuts. But it is a nice insight because you do sometimes see that Grey does think Keesey is very worldly and, you know, very sophisticated with his nice glass of shabli and that sort of thing. High class. Finally then, for today's episode, here's Keese and Grey getting ready for Everton versus Brighton. A huge occasion for Everton, a huge occasion for Andy Grey, of course. But a huge occasion for Richard Keyes as well for his own niche little tastes. This is a big day. It is. I'm really excited about it. And I would like to wish, genuinely, and maybe somebody will hear us, everybody connected with Everton Football Club today, all the very best, because this is a really special occasion.
48:14Oh, by the way, that's where the Titanic was birthed before she set sail for an hour. Just there, was it? Right there. I hope, I hope, I mean, I just mentioned that. Yeah. Yeah. No, we're not sinking. Take all that away, right? Don't start today. We're upbeat. She's beautiful. That's an amazing stadium. It's taken a while. Do you know they found 14, to be serious now, 14 unexploded Second World War bombs on that site? No. Wow, hope we got them all. Everton-Brighton today. That's so good. She's beautiful. She's beautiful.
48:48Charlie Eccleshare:Calling Titanic she as well. Just so perfect. Number one is calling Hill Dickinson Stadium she. She's beautiful. And that's pure Keezy. secondly the the the re-emergence of his fascination with the titanic charlie because as we know he has a scale model of the titanic and he's doha home so just love that and then so good yeah and then that that bit at the end which was very reminiscent of what's the top kit of all time and quite partridge as well i know we say that a lot about him but just you know a slightly off key and a a bit sort of of a not the most positive subject yeah just really inappropriate just so good andy gray's just customary disbelief anything any facts that kesey has furnished him with no top class adjudication panelling thanks to you charlie all the way from new york city thank you thanks to you dave walker thank you thanks to everyone for listening we'll be back on thursday with your mezza harland dicks see you then
