The ScoutCast – Episode 29 – Croissants And Footy

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

The latest ScoutCast episode is now live for your aural pleasure. Listen in as I recount my Paris trip diet of croissants and football, and a closely fought contest between Wifey and WIFI. I seem to have absorbed some French luck too, as I continue on my ‘Fantasy Cup’ run. Maybe it’s due to Le Chat Noir that ran in front of my car last week. Mark on the other hand is desperately trying the differential blagging game and failing miserably. There might just be a contest this season after all.

As well as the usual podcast regulars, the pair of us visit the familiar “Fantasy Island” destination with a passenger that at first seems like a case of mistaken identity. A shared surname created the confusion, giving me all the opportunity I needed to dwell on United’s latest triumph over Mark’s Gunners. He can harp on about Forest all he likes. I know the truth.

“Robert hasn't touched him. The player tries to get him sent off. It's a disease that's creeping into the game.”

Tony Pulis laments the referee's decision to send off Robert Huth against Sunderland
