The Game Is About Glory

It's was @Moby. It's a great line

Mic-dropper...very funny.

Hm, still enjoying the pods, but you've got me going round singing "won't you take me to Bunnytown,".
Which with lyrics like "talk about it" and "gotta move" on lyrics is quite apt!

 

[thfcsteff]

We've never had a discussion on what our positions are on things before recording and that the first time we know what someone is going to say is when they say it. Our responses are immediate and genuine.

That means we occasionally kick ourselves about something we should've said afterwards or could've said better but the plus side is that it is spontaneous and authentic.

I think that disagreements will happen naturally, we've already had a few, but I'm not keen on disagreement for the sake of it.

Agreed.
Manufactured disagreement is cheap reality TV territory.
Eagle-eared folk will have heard how disagreements will go down with our team this past pod, when the question was raised as to whether our smaller English core was a factor in our form and the response was a firm "don't think so"...

 

[thfcsteff]

Yes, I felt that too; of course it is super hard to paint positives with the current "playing style" and feel around the team.

Steff is a good host BUT also has pretty much the strongest views on this forum in terms of Poch and Mou, so he would struggle to take a credible neutral view on those topics.

Probably Milo is the more balanced 'neutral' voice who could play devil's advocate?



PS I agree about the Poch revisionism, we endured a dreadfully depressing final year of falling apart.

Stay tuned because we are going to do an in-depth look at Mourinho's time with us soon (international break). It will have to be fair and balanced as otherwise it will be silly.
I think you'll get a clearer view of how we handle such conundrums.
Context is everything.
Believe it or not I do have some sympathy for him and will share what that is, and you'll see that everyone will have done their homework to create a balanced, entertaining yet passionate pod on the man's time here.

Yes you are.

 

[milo]

Yes you are.

fudge you. Either this man is dropped from the pod or I'm never doing it again

 

[Moby]

You clam. You, me and my gran. Outside now.

And you’d better come tooled up, as Nanna is packing heat.

 

[milo]

The Baggies preview in this pod would make an ideal warm up for the game.

Episode 8 is in the can and should be out tomorrow

Episode 8

Despite some members of the team having to suffer the M6 Corley services due to a bum-steer, The Game Is About Glory boys tackle the triumph over West Brom, Fat Sam’s bovril bowl and over-priced crap wrist-wear plus they share some very personal views of what the values and identity of THFC are to them (thanks to @DaveT316 for posing the passionate question on GG) and look forward to a busy game in the league and cup with our games at Everton and Man.City...

...don't cheat yourself, grab a beverage and settle down for some top Totty podding NOW!

@thfcsteff @Moby @awesome dawson and @GPRD81 discuss

• Tottenham - West Brom
• What is our club's identity?
• Everton - Tottenham
• Emirates Marketing Project - Tottenham

[Moby]

Ooh, don’t mind if I do!.....

 

[milo]

I sat this one out but must say it is a really good listen. I am disappointed, though, that @Moby let @awesome dawson thumb in a softy without so much as a word.

 

[Baleforce]

good to see you are already on the corporate sponsorship gravy train, how many jars did they give you?

Are you referring to the Marmite point or Fat Sam's bleeds Bovril?

The Bovril, I've not listened to this one yet

 

[milo]

The Bovril, I've not listened to this one yet

I hope that you've got a strong stomach.

Not sure if the discussion of Big Sam going down made the editors cut but that isn’t product specific.

 

[Baleforce]

I hope that you've got a strong stomach.

Well I listened to the first 7.

 

[milo]

Well I listened to the first 7.

@awesome dawson takes this one places I didn't think we'd visit

 

[Bullet]

I enjoyed it again, well done lads.

To be a bit harsh, some of the 'humour' wasn't the most amazing banter ever but the general discussion was a good listen and ate up an hour nicely whilst I fixed my son's radio controlled car.
