Class!

Absolutely hysterical. The combination of Paddy’s energy and Paul and Nicky’s dry humor works so well. Keep it up lads!

Honest, Unfiltered Football chat for true fans!

zappavin14/11/2026

This is an outstanding podcast. Three mates relaxing and chatting about football, offering honest opinions—good or bad (hence the title). Paddy, a genuine football fan, asks grounded, down-to-earth questions to both football legends and their special guests. He poses the kinds of questions every fan would ask to uncover great behind-the-scenes stories. If you’re looking for an unbiased, no-agenda, relaxed football podcast that covers the game and everything around it, this is the one for you. Keep it up, gents—don’t change a thing!

Deflated

Scholesy has been someone I’ve looked up to since I was a kid. I don’t think he realizes the weight of his words. It’s not just the comments about Carrick that was hurtful, but the fact that he tried to convince all of us that he didn’t mean it that way. Like we’re all just morons who will believe anything he says. He still holds a special place in my heart and always will, but I’m not going to support his platform anymore.

Disappointing

It’s just so sad. So so sad.

Legends who think they still know the game.

It’s obvious by recent comments that they just talk based on feel rather than actually watching and researching. Old man who was revered during their playing days (and nicky butt) want to use their class of 92 pedigree to make some money. Not worth the listen.
