The ScoutCast – Episode 25 – Happy Birthday Mr President

Filed under: Fantasy Football Podcast, Featured - Posted by: G-G-Granville

This week’s podcast is special for so many reasons. Firstly it’s our 25th, putting us roughly 456 episodes behind that classic “please make it stop” Sunday sitcom Last of the Summer Wine. It also arrives in the week of Mark’s birthday and the inaugural Fantasy Football Scout Cup final.

Not surprisingly we spend at least a few minutes dwelling on these momentous events, scattered around the usual regulars – Granny’s Miffed, Rotation Watch, All Aboard, The Weekend Preview and Fantasy Island Risks. It’s nowhere near as funny as the rollicking adventures of Foggy, Compo and Clegg but it’s getting there. We’ll crack it in episode 481.

“Gylfi is a wonderful talent. I've kept in contact with him ever since he played under me at Reading and I knew this would be a terrific club for him and he has fitted in perfectly.”
