We Answer Your Questions: Should Footballers Be TRAPPED at One Club & Our WORST Purchases… | EP. 428
That Peter Crouch PodcastShow Notes
On this week’s episode of the Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids, and Chris are back answering YOUR ‘Ask Us Anything’ questions, and as always, things take a few unexpected turns!
We kick things off with a very special pep talk from LBC’s Tom Swarbrick, who gives the lads the ultimate speech ahead of Starky’s annual lads’ golf trip. Forget motivational speakers, this is all about freedom, friendship, and that first crack of the tin!
Then it’s straight into the usual madness, as a listener creates a football team inspired by vasectomies, Pete reveals he watched his dog’s operation in full surgical scrubs, and Sids reveals his best ever response to someone asking “do I know you from somewhere?”
The listeners have been bringing the HEAT this week, with questions covering everything from whether footballers should be forced to stay at one club for their entire careers, to ranking the lads’ Football League forfeits and whether the Premier League should introduce bonus points for big wins. We also find out which former teammates the boys would trust to represent them in court, debate whether Ref Cam is actually improving the game, and we discover Chris’s OUTRAGEOUS ostrich travel pillow.
The lads eventually catch-up remotely for this weekend’s predictions, with big calls on Leeds vs Manchester United, and plenty of debate about the latest football storylines. And finally, we round things off with ‘Why The Football Not’ - and it’s a belter.
Got a question for the lads? Drop it in the comments, and let us know whether you'd back the ostrich pillow or stick to a standard neck cushion. As always, like, subscribe, and we'll see you next week!
