My Biddy Aunt: Managers

0:10It's Friday, we've got a retur - What? Hello, Luke. Have you missed me? Hello, everybody. So calm. Welcome to the Football Ramblings. My biddy and I am Pete Donaldson. I'm Luke Moore. And that's me, apparently.

0:42Welcome back to another blockbuster edition of My Biddy Art. I love Vish's attempt to join the right-wing manosphere with that bit. It's so masculine, that bit. That's thrown me more than it thrown loose. Presumably you recorded that in advance on purpose. Yeah, not with that filter, though. Was that the best take you had? We did it twice. Release the first one, please. One of the producers went, that will simply have to do. I tell you what, that's not going to strike any fear in the heart of the Luke Nation. They're behind me and they know how much support I need. Now you're back. And they are going to be very, very encouraged to hear that for your opening gambit.

1:23They went on that big mental health walk the other day, didn't they? With the cans. Boy, given that you've been covering the ashes, presumably you're on it as well, were you? Yes, it is a big one, ladies and gentlemen. Vish is back to challenge Luke for his My Biddy Aunt belt. I've had so many messages about this in advance since you promoted it. People are saying, I can't wait for this clash. Can't wait for it. They're basically saying Luke's been knocking over crap contestants for too long now. Yeah. The fixture computer has been very kind to you. Oh, yeah. I might say maybe a duck of the opponent.

1:54Did he ask what he did, didn't he? A little bit. He's a big ducker. Big ducker. Yes, the last time Vish played this game was in early October when he won 5-0 against Jim. Easy work, mate. Wow, easy work. I'm trying to find the... To be fair, I think last time I played Vish, I think he beat me. And I think what had to happen was Marcus took the belt back off him and then I took it off Marcus. So actually, the most recent fixture between us, you won. I think you won quite easily as well. If I win this, I think England will win the Ashes. Don't keep bringing that up. It's just going to haunt you.

2:20It's going to haunt you that forever. When's the next Ashes? I don't know cricket. Two years? 18 months. Yeah, 27. Over here in the summer of 27. It's always in South Africa. Yeah. Always in South Africa. Do you remember that in 2023 where you thought I was working in South Africa on the home Ashes? That's right. Yes, I did. Yes. Those trousers do cut off the circulation of the brain. everything my brain is in my feet yes if you don't know the rules they are simple each round I'll be naming a footballer one of you will bid on how many of their clubs you can name or remember more importantly or less importantly your opponent can then raise the bid or challenge you to list them only professional clubs count and the player must have made a competitive appearance for that team if you fail to meet your bid the opponent will score first three points wins I cannot believe the belt has gone missing yeah well I can believe that because it's just dark forces isn't it I don't think I've taken it home.

3:10I mean, I could have done. Vish is going to lift up his top and he's already got it on. Yeah. I mean, I should be wearing it for the contest really. I'm concerned. What I've developed some anxiety and fear about with my buddy out now is I've started to develop some anxiety because the lads have started doing themes. And I'm a bit paranoid the theme's going to come in and it's going to be shit. And it's not going to be a theme conducive to me. So what's the theme this week? The theme this week is managers. managers what clubs they've managed every name you will get will be a current or former manager however we want you to name the clubs they've played for not the clubs they've managed it was a nice little nice little turn there a little bit harder apparently the belt might be in the cupboard so look forward to nothing like a bit of pride a lot of money 3D printing that get in the cupboard didn't you Peter I had to inhale a lot of fumes from the PT plastic did you 3D print the whole thing I 3D printed the whole thing apart from the belt bit You didn't need to be in the room when that was going on, though.

4:09I like the smell. You got the catchphrase wrong as well. What? It should be... Didn't fit, didn't fit. Freezer didn't fit. Fire in the belly, head in the freezer. Yeah, but the fridge... It's still cold, isn't it? Famously not as cold. It's still cold, isn't it? Yeah. It's still a cooling effect. If you bash that up to number seven, I don't know why fridges stop and start at seven, but if you bash it up to seven, you're getting close to freezer. Top of the fridge as well, so you're closer to the fillet. Right at the back, yeah. Fire in the belly, head in the freezer comes from Big Pav. Yeah. who actually had some comments to make about your trousers, Pete.

4:38Oh, did he? He messaged. I'll just tell you quickly what he said, because it might be quite interesting. He said, has Pete got on the train in those fucking trousers? Fucking hell. 20 years ago, if you weren't wearing a tie, you got funny looks on the train, and now you can dress like Shawn Michaels. I'm just a sexy boy. Anyway, he started frying the belly head in the freezer, and I thought it was his thing, and he used to say it at Ramble 11 all the time. It was a semi-joke when he was a keeper. and it turns out he got it from Danny Cowley. Danny Cowley said it when he was managing him. There you go.

5:09Oh, right. So it comes from the Cowley brothers, firing the belly, head in the freezer. For those of you out there who are interested. Good news. All right. Well, Vish is going to be starting first because you are the challenger for the belt. That's how it works. Round number one, he's had six clubs, Didier Deschamps. I think I should be going to go first here. Tough titties. Didier Deschamps. Tough titties. Didier Deschamps. Six. Fuck off. Whoa. No, no, no, no. Is there six clubs? Six clubs, yeah. Fucking hell. My heart genuinely skipped a beat then. We should come back pumped. He's on a cycle.

5:45He's been injecting himself with brain medicine. Oh, come on. I think I can do five. Oh, you fucker. So can I. I can do five, definitely. Can I do six? Can you do six? Can you do six? Did you, Deschamps, how many teams did he play for? Six. What are those teams? That's very much the tenor of the competition. That is so annoying. That's the worst start possible. You don't know he's going to get them? He is going to get them. Would you like to hear them? Boring bastard, isn't he? Biddy, biddy. Oh, I can't remember the fucking sixth one. Biddy, biddy, biddy. Go on, just let him do it. Let him do it.

6:15Fucking hell. Let him do it? Why are you so despondent this early on? Your head's gone, mate. Your head's in the fridge. Because if I do six, I'll be guessing the sixth one. Right. It's on the tip of my tongue and I can't remember it. Do you know what? Actually, fuck it. I'm going to go six. I'll do it on my own terms. I'll do it on my own terms. And I want to prove to everyone that I can do five and I'm not bluffing. He's thrown away. I'm doing six. He's got pride before a fall. Pride during a fall, it seems. Could you do five? I think I've got the fifth one, yeah. Okay, okay. So I'm going to go six.

6:47Right. Let's see you're six then, Lukey. I think there's three French clubs and I can only think of two. Right. And that's what's hurting me. That's what's hurting me. But anyway, I'll do them anyway. Juventus? Yep, 94, 99. Valencia, played for them definitely. 2000 and 2001. Chelsea of course yes 1999 to 2000 so there's three French clubs I'm sure of it I can do two I can do Marseille 89 to 94 a good vintage I can do FC Nantes you play for definitely that was the one I wasn't sure about 85 to 89 so I need one more and it's a French club I'm it's a long move does that help I'm 100 % sure he's giving me a clue there that's not a clue is it thank you Peter not a clue is it appreciate that Not a clue.

7:32Appreciate that, Peter. Not a clue. I'm going to guess a French club. Go on, then. And I'm going to guess... For fuck's sake. I know it's French. I just can't remember it. Sosho. There's an X in it, but it's not the right one. Is that who's there? Bordeaux. Oh, Bordeaux. Bordeaux. Did you say Sosho because he said loan? Yeah. Because that's a very loan adjacent club. I just picked a French club that aren't that big. Yeah, but as soon as you said that, I was like, yeah, that's loan. It's not like a loan territory. But, you know, you might not have heard it because you were away. a couple weeks ago I think I just about beat Marcus but the two points I lost were both incorrect PSG answers I'm not fucking doing PSG again I refuse to say PSG alright well it's it's Vish one Lukey Martin nil so is Bordeaux the one you didn't have yeah I was unsure about but I had the other four right on the sweet spot Deshaun in terms of football supporting era legend so I get to go first this time right you do round number two five clubs Nigel Clough now then young man the Clough hard to do that without doing Savile doing Savile five I think I'm missing an obvious one here I'm the best young son as well and the best old one as well the best old son as well oh god this is going to be one of those games it's going to be one of those games I can definitely get four I think the fifth is really obvious but I can't think what it is I'm taking Bish out of the game here I'm doing it on my own terms I'm going to go all five I think I've got four.

9:00Okay, I'm going to go five. Yeah, in fact, I've got four. I'm going to go five. One I'm not sure about, but fuck it. Okay. Played for Nottingham Forest, obviously. Yep. Played for Liverpool. Certainly did. 93 to 96. Played for Man City. 96 to 98. Ended his career as a player at Burton Albion. And obviously, he's managed there a long, old time. 10 years between 98 and 2008. This is a guess. I don't know if it's right. Sheffield Wednesday? Oh, yes! 1997 on lawn. Fair. 1997 on lawn. I had in my head that he played in blue and white and so I guess Sheffield Wednesday. Oh, well done. Did you really?

9:41Did you have all five then? Well, I mean, I wasn't sure but in my head he played in blue and white. That was the only team I could think of. His brother, who I believe is some kind of golf teacher, has also been chief... Are they called golf teachers still? He's also been chief scout for Mansfield Town, Burton Alvin, Sheffield United apparently. Yeah. Nepo baby. That was for the nation. When you get all the clubs, you have to dedicate it to the nation. Okey dokey. All right, round number three. Vish, you're going first. Seven clubs. Mark Hughes. Oh. Mr. Marky Hughes. A wee bit before Vish's time, but...

10:19I'm drawing a bit of a blank here. He's a Man United fan, so it might help slightly. Yeah, another clue. He does what he wants, doesn't he? Is that one? Thankfully, I already had written that. Don't be thick in front of me, you two. Let's not be naive. I'm having a fucking nightmare here. This is going to be 2-1 down. Oh, dear. Oh, dear. Seven clubs, gentlemen. I'll guess seven. Oh, fucking hell. Whoa! Just so you know. Sorry, I will tell you the seven clubs that he played for. Right. Just so you know. Exactly. Positive mental attitude. How far ahead you are in me in this, I could only write down three.

10:49Massive. Right. Massive blind spot. Go for it. I'll watch and enjoy this. You didn't have to do seven, you wild man. Yeah, but I mean, why they're just he's got in my head about taking people out of the game Manchester United Bayern Munich nice Barcelona 86 to 88 Blackburn Rovers 2000 to 2002 Chelsea yep Southampton Everton it's spotless that is spotless you can't do anything about that that's a high seven would you like to dedicate that also to the Luke Nation you know what yeah that was for you Luke Nation Luke Nation are eating well today aren't they all sorts of morsels it's 2-1 to Vish Vish coming back strong shit I'm on the ropes here it's like when look for me if Vish comes straight back and takes the belt yeah exactly innit it's like when wrestlers go off injured and then come back very juicy imagine how camp that promo's gonna be yeah yeah

11:52right round number four Lukey Moo you're gonna be first for this one seven clubs it's a tricky one it's Liam Resenia oh I don't think anyone's going to get this seven clubs personally this is also really tough yeah it's a tough one it's good look it's a strong round it befits the temperament of the of the people who are going to be taking part the problem is with Resenia Vichy's probably looked at his profile fairly recently because he's been in the news a lot that's what tends to happen you just show you're on the Wikipedia page aren't you yeah but he's also he's also been to the cricket for a long time.

12:27Yeah, he's back ages ago. Lazy bastard. He's been back about two weeks. He can't do any work. Hey, stop this sledging. That's true though, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah. Trying to help you. Let's go with four. Four clubs out of seven. Look, I think for a round like that, I think that's a really strong gambit. Vish, have you got five? No, I have a loose four. A loose four. You're going to bring it home, mate. Bring it home with a flourish. With an aplomb. Don't cajole him into You know Overselling himself You literally just gave him One of Mark Hughes' clubs So don't fucking tell me What to do boy I think he probably should be Across that one Can you tell me How many loan spells Had Liam McSinney had You had a clue earlier on With the loan move He had two moves He played on loan He's not the same as He played for Man United Vishy had two loans Oh um Five Five Okay Right I think I've got five Right For the win If I win this Yeah I think England will win the Ashes Does that count for the next?

13:242027 I had 18 months. 20, 27. So I had nowhere near four. Yeah. I tried to bluff him out of it to bump him up to try and make him earn the win. We all know what you're doing. You're disgusting. He's gone for the five. Let him name the five for a three win. A three-one win. Even that's gamesmanship. Outrageous. Let me have your five for the win. So the only reason I know this club is because he used to sit in press conferences when other people were doing them when he was at Hull City. I had that one. Five years. That's a fairly famous one. 2010 to 2015. Played in the Premier League for Hull. That's the one that people sort of...

13:55Fulham. Fulham. Yeah, 2003, 2007. That's good. Reading. Not like Reading. Not like Reading. Reading, 2007, 2010. Brighton. I had that one as well. Brighton of Albion, 2015 to 2018. Now, for the game, it would be better for you to get this one wrong. It would be, and I might have got it wrong, but I am pretty sure he also played for Ripswich. It's one of his Lord moves. The Dushin and Hantaraja win! the big man's back in town the big man is back you've got to say that well done Vish well done Vish well done Vish that is a humbling England has taken all my ashes in eight months time I feel like a hot house flower I feel like I'm just I've been doing it too easy for too long fuck off Travis Head fuck off Pat Cummings oh fantastic stuff sorry guys sorry guys sorry to Luke Nation would you like to dedicate that to Luke Nation I would because because one of the benefits of being in Australia was being surrounded by football journalists who were masquerading as cricket journalists and so when we were senior came in everyone was talking about how nice he was at various clubs okay nice that's what helped good lovely should we do the last one?

15:10let's do the last one get a bit of pride see if I can get a bit of pride bit of man and ball pride and ball nine clubs very handsome in his younger younger years Sam Allardyce did not expect you to say Sam Allardyce after that give yourself a give yourself a treat Google a young Sam Allardyce I can't can I I'm doing this game I'll do it Vish you're going first on this one nine clubs okay nine nine five oh I can do five as well I've got a couple of rogue ones in there that for some reason because you spend so much time adjacent to Sam Allardyce that I was doing this show. I've picked up a load from Osmosis.

15:54Five is good though. That's what I was going to bid. I'm going to bid six because I want to be a part of it for the final one. I'll go six. All right. Vish, have you got seven in the known clubs of Sam Maldays?

16:07Yeah, you're going to go seven. No. No. Bloody hell. All right. I've got six. Of the nine, Lukey Moor, name your six. I just want to name a couple that I'm really proud of. Right. Okay. So, I'm pretty sure I'm pretty sure he played for Bolton. Yes, he did play for Bolton. Well, for two periods. I think he played for Sunderland as well. He did play for Sunderland. Cool. Now, I've got a couple I'm not sure of, so I'm going to go for the couple of barn burners that you guys will like. I'm pretty sure he played for the Tampa Bay Rowdies. He did play for the Tampa Bay Rowdies. That's the one I would have had, and that's about it.

16:40That's good. Maybe Sunderland. And I think he ended his career in Ireland, and he played, I'm pretty sure, I'm not 100 % sure but I'm pretty sure it's Limerick did he play for Limerick he played yes for Limerick player manager in fact fair play that's a little flourish I might have lost but that's for the nation right yeah okay so a couple of guesses just to round things off because you know 3-2-4-1 who cares did he play for Newcastle oh unlucky and the other one I had was West Brom did he play for them yes he did play one solitary appearance in 1989 slash 1991 Preston North End Preston North End yep he played Coventry City Coventry City yeah you would have had that one I was going for Midlands he's of that era where when you get one club you may as well just do the catchment era it was so much harder to move and relocate where you can drive your Austin Allegro around to the next club yeah we could have had Millwall as well he's a very Millwall-y footballer I think that's fair play for Millwall and yeah Huddersfield Town imagine him his short really short shorts playing for Millwall with his moustache a comprehensive guys where's the belt get in the belt get in the belt I'll get out the cover shall I Luke's going to the new a lot of the cupboards are locked in this thing I've noticed I'm always don't wobble the camera I'm always surprised that I'm always sort of interested about I'd also like to present you with a celebratory copy of a kicking back from Nedim O 'Neill and then it's my pleasure it's not much of a pleasure what is that to hand the 3D printed belt over to you for my buddy aunt as the champion.

18:18Congratulations to you. Lennial champion. Yeah. A lot of like boxers and wrestlers when they get given the belt, they do have sex in it. So just, just an idea. I certainly have. Just an idea. Masturbation is kind of like sex. What is this? It's your belt, mate. It's a bit of a lovely belt. Treasure it. Seriously, treasure it. Treasure that belt. Cherish it. Lovely, isn't it? Yeah. Fire in the belly. It looks and feels psychotic. It's a horrible thing to hold. It looks like a cry for help. Why is that? Fish. I've just awarded you that belt and you're having to go at the person who 3D printed it yeah sorry Nedum can't believe it he's on Monday Nightclub now he doesn't need us anymore sorry Nedum I think that was when he was couching to be a bit of the ramble about him but he's on Monday Nightclub he doesn't need us right okay you know the looks the looks I'll get if I carry this onto the trade will be worse over the shoulder it's like the Ashes trophy it stays where it stays in situ in a cupboard in a dirty old cupboard there we go that's it fantastic stuff thank you for listening to the Football Ramble thank you for listening to my video and part of the ACAST creator network we're going to be back on Monday to react to all of the weekend's football the super Sunday that we discussed to Arsenal zero May United too make sure you're following us on socials at football ramble and if you ever want to suggest a theme and some players the theme in particular upsets the Luke nation for my video and get in touch with us on Instagram X in the comments on YouTube or email us short at football ramble.com we would love to hear from you should they be putting it in the comments on YouTube because Luke will be able to see it and Vich will be able to see it I think I'm the least of your worries at the moment Vich is the guy to beat as he's shown good point we'll see you soon see you later this is awful
