Can You Hear Me Now? The Radio Five Live Interview

Filed under: Site Features - Posted by: Mark

For those who missed it, here’s a link to a rather hissy DIY recording of the interview with myself and Fantasy Premier League champ Jon Reeson that went out on Radio Five Live this morning.

Good to see Fantasy Football getting some mainstream exposure and recognition; it’s just a shame that Jon and I combined our powers so effectively to put it firmly back in the domain of pale geeks who shy from daylight. The fact that I’m tapping this out while the sun blazes through my window is a case in point. Apologies to all you bronzed, lady-kissing Fantasy Football Managers out there.

Big thanks for Jon for joining me for the interview – we needed to get someone along who knew what they were talking about. Granville offered but…you know. He’ll hopefully be back for the podcasts though. Jon’s busy on those days.

“Alex Chamberlain played three games for the first time in his career. He had a stiff neck at half-time, so I did not want to take a gamble with him. Then we had a problem with Koscielny, and I wanted to give some playing time to Benayoun.”

Arsene Wenger explains why Van Persie wasn't substituted in the 7-1 win over Blackburn following pre-game talk of the Dutch hitman needing rest
