The World v Carl - Round 13 (Greg Theaker - The Rematch) - NSFW

We talk with Andrew about following the team all over the country and segue of twitter and Friday Night curries, we criticise the combination of Curry, chips and prawn cocktails (including brown bread triangles), we dissect Slaven Bilic's reign, our lack of consistency linked to the culture in place and Andrew's discussions and reflections of the Croatians time at the club. The up and down of the emotions before, during and after the home Derby win and which Carry On film Nathan Jones should have starred in. We chat through the youngsters and the transfer window leading to a feeling of disconnection between what the manager had asked for and what he got before the ultimate disconnect as discuss Slaven's eventual departure. We also hear about the legend that really wasn't - Manaj!!! We hear how long it took Chris Wilder to realise that the job was bigger than he had realised. Oh and Kayembe is still alive apparently - who knew!!! COYH!! Part Three coming soon as we look at Chris Wilder and look forward to the latest Head Coaches future This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Do Not Scratch Your Eyes.

Ahead of the Promotion Play Off final Justin, and Pete talk to Player of Season Megan Chandler about how she first got into football, how she developed her game via the Charlton Athletic School of Excellence and ended up in the US on a Football Scholarship for 4 years. Now in her fourth season at Watford Megan has amongst many of her team mates had an outstanding season but she has also been playing with an injury sustained and simply played on with a brace (Kortney Hause - just saying!). After a difficult previous season we hear how this season has seen a combination of intensity, determination and enjoyment has seen an about turn in results and fantastic performances. Megan explains her leadership style and how she has learned from other experienced members of the squad. The squad flexibility and being able to use the full squad has been a hallmark of the season Megan explains how they have all adapted as and when and how their familiarity allows them to do it without a drop off in performance. Megan talks about the half time and second half in the penultimate game against Oxford United coming back from a goal down to win 2-1 plus at half time a half time talk from the keeper coach helped them to relax and play their game - which led to the final game against Billericay and those celebrations. The words "This is our time" are used and you get the feeling - it just might be so get along to Stadium MK and cheer there girls on! This episode is sponsored by Nord VPN COYH!!!!

Ahead of the Play Off Final, Justin, and Pete chat with Women’s team manager Damon Lathrope. We hear about hear his playing career cruelly cut short otherwise he might have met Watford in a notable cup match, his move into academy coaching and his introduction to the Womens game at the start of the season and his initial impressions. Damon talks about the exceptional playing, coaching and support staff and he explains his thoughts on the differences between the men and womens games. We go through the ups and downs of the season and Damon explains how the team have used the few moments of adversity in the season to respond positively and to build the courage and character of the team and the squad. We discuss fluctuations in squad personnel and Damon explains why the culture, atmosphere and success of the team has helped them even when success has sometimes worked against them (but in a good way). Helen Ward plays her last game in the Play Off final and Damon explains what she has done for the squad this season on and off the pitch this season. The rise and quality of Ipswich was clearly noted and of course played a massive part in the season and the last day. The embarrassment of riches in wide areas is discussed but whilst he enthuses about the assembled squad Damon stresses the parts of the squad that has allowed players to be so effective going forward as was evidenced in the penultimate game of the season coming back from a goal down to then leaders Oxford United. Pete makes Damon play one of his stupid word games (it’s not like Damon had more important things to do eh!?!) giving one-word comments for each of the squad. Finally, Damon expresses his appreciation and asks, if you can, get along to Stadium MK on Saturday! Coming tomorrow - we chat with Player of the Season Megan Chandler! This podcast is sponsored by Nord VPN  With any money we're going to make some posters to give away at the first game of next season to (hopefully) celebrate the Bunker being open again. COYH!!!!

48 hours after our disappointing season concludes Pozzo &/or Manga waste no time in bringing in brining in a new head coach - former Barnsley and West Brom manager Valerien Ismael. We take a barometer check on initial fan reaction and here from some that it is a Pozzo appointment and others that it is a Manga appointment but either way everyone agrees that unless he's backed he will be out by October, December or the first international break!! One word summaries spell the please (not quite a haiku) of "Underwhelmed Apathy Bollocks Clusterfuck Meh Valium Asylum Bored Bewildered Anxious Ivic" - so there you have it! The 5 word and long form thoughts are more considered. Have a listen and see what you think. This is almost entirely unedited and raw. COYH!!!!

We chat with Chris who bought in the "Cowards" banner about having fun with the stewards and fire certificates!!! Really great work Chris!!! Justin decides that Carl and Pete should play a quick fire round but they are having none of it and start bickering We look at the DNSYE End of Season Alphabet Nonsense F- K. Finally in a brief moment of sincerity we remember the late great Eddie Plumley who played a massive and understated role at our club in happier times. RIP. COYH!!!!

Part Two of the Post Match Phone in starts with Omar of You ‘Orns waxing lyrical on the women’s team and the lessons to be learned by the mens team, he then upsets Pete with a play off prediction that frightened us all!! 😊 Sean joins us and explains how hard it is for a new young fan to get a ticket in terms of fan ID arrangements and then explains the police presence outside of the ground may have more to do with Stoke City and might be unconnected to the extra stewarding that the club has seen fit to implement in the last few weeks. Paul joins to make a confession that he is giving up his season ticket but that by doing so a good season was guaranteed(ish) next term. Chorleywood Common resident John joined us from the 6th tee feeling sad because people near him in the ground were also not renewing after many years plus more instances of fan experience being very difficult and raising the idea of a fan advisory group. Jimmy Pesto with news that there will be another “little Pesto” landing soon and Gary confirms exactly how the word “Bastard” should be pronounced. Loads of excellent 5 word and long form reviews during which Uncle Ron gets Pete all misty eyed over “we are the champions” with Ron Pickering!
