The World v Carl - Round 8 (Rich Stevens) - NSFW

Firstly, we discuss the Vlog and what things we might be able to ask Taylor to jump into next having so far leapt into both a skip and a hedge. We then turn our thoughts to Ben Manga’s reported departure and ask what this means behind the scenes and how does yet another strategic 180 degree turn mean for the management of the club, Justin comes out finally, Pete wobbles on about journey’s and destinations and Carlos asks about the finance implications of terminating yet another presumably sizeable contract. We look back on the rumours and the articles now issued and try to put the pieces together and remember that this time last year Giaretta was reported as leaving so who really knows. We ask why the roles and responsibilities which are reported as not sorted upon Manga’s arrival were not in place and where is the org chart asked for in the June Q&A. Justin starts talking about lawnmowers and we nominate Carl as the next Technical Director. Carlos takes us through the mood at Cardiff during half time in the car park and Pete talks through previous owners and why we didn’t like most of them either. Justin asks if Gino cares any longer. We get to some kindly submitted questions and we find out what Justin was doing on the 30th December 1983. Food dislikes are covered as is the Wetherspoons app that Pete was delighted to discover, Carl has an incident with chips plus more nonsense of dubious quality is discussed in the usual shoddy manner. When does the international break end – please say it’s soon!!! COYH! This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Do Not Scratch Your Eyes.

Here is a short eclectic mix of some of the utter nonsense we get up to on what we loosely call a podcast. We occasionally talk about football but are never afraid to chaotically sprint down a cul-de-sac marked "Do not enter!". We hope some of it makes you smile or or stops you gnashing your teeth about the latest club issues - if only for a few minutes. Clips include Justin laughing, Carl swearing and Pete making Carl swear, the grumpy trio wobbling on about nothing in particular, The Post Match Phone In X/Twitter Spaces, The World versus Carl, The Opposition View and The Canadian special and when Pete thought we should go and commentate on one of the womens games and Carl had energy to expend.

Carlos joins us from Cardiff (with very expensive audio background sound effects perfectly replicating a Wetherspoons pub – it’s a service we offer) and talks about the Welsh, the Pozzo’s, whats next and says what he feels is and is not acceptable in what is now, he confirms, a relegation battle. Pete Fincham disparages suggestions that Elton would come to the rescue of the club, observes that the club are not demonstrating that they have learnt from the errors made previously, asks whats next and calls on the supporters trust to once again be more active. Neal joins us and asks why the coach and team have not learned from errors made previously after seeing us concede two goals with opposition players unmarked at the far post in the course of 3 days, impressed with Livermore and Bayo’s workrate. We discuss the difference in connection between the first squad of Pozzo assembled players and more recent ones and ask if the world has moved and if it has what could be done to reaffirm that connection between players and supporters. Tim joins us travelling back in the car with driver Tony and whilst his reception goes in and out his messages still get through (this has been heavily edited to remove the drop out segments) he gives us a run down on the performance collectively and from each player before Tony is unfairly criticised for not over taking a coach! 5 Word reviews, Long forms and now poetry reviews add to the bizarre nature of this whole thing!

RichWFC2 rues the misses, and many of the under performances especially Rajovic in open play. Also we discuss that Cardiff were not displeased with the draw and looked exhausted. We look forward to what is already a six pointer after the international break. Wendover joins us outside the ground and tries to get himself set upon with a series of Welsh puns, he is made Ambassador to Georgia for getting information on Chekvetadze, John T joins us and asks what next for the club and asks if it is time for Gino to move on? Danny picks over the performances and tells us what he’d like to see corrected over the international break. Alan questions the likelihood of being in a position to be a sustainable Premier League side and how we will look back at this era overall. Between Alan and Pete they decide that Warner Bros should be the next club investor on the basis of Harry Potter (Don’t it didn’t make any sense at the time either!). We talk about what a sustainable ownership model might look like. COYH! This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Do Not Scratch Your Eyes.

Alan bemoans the level of squad we have, Ron does what Ron does and points out the captain can come off his line but only to get a yellow card and calls out the owner and says talk of players and tactics are pointless until there is a regime change, Jason talks through the first goal and how the very basics of defending are killing in games. Wendover comes on feeling rock bottom and seems to think that Elton John might be listening and implores the former chairman to be the catalyst to a buy out. Boyd comes on and gives critique on the team and Jobi McAnuff collectively and individually. Charlie is a combination of angry but composed having called this a while ago and asks how long the supporters will tolerate the current trend but implores any supporter activity be considered and collective. Danny comes on having attended the match feeling so sad as to not be angry, that the players should put on such a listless unorganised display. Alex points out the emotion trough the fans are in at the start of October. A lack of leadership and discipline is decried plus are certain players performing below par because they are not droppable due to the paucity of the squad. Greg thinks the manager is trying his best but does not warrant a new contract, but points out the status quo can change very quickly for good and for bad, Gary refuses to use the word “bastard” for comic effect despite - Pete imploring him to do so – as its too early but instead points out how pointless contracts are in football generally and Watford especially and therefore feels that Ismael will go in this or the next international break. We explore whether who makes the club statements might increase or decrease it’s likelihood or certainty. Hornets1992 adds to the collective frustration of the evening and the season trend. We ask why the pressing from the front has seemingly stopped and with it any intensity of play. We go to Darren in Australia who despite his lack of proximity to the club can now join in the suffering of everyone from the other side of the world!! We’re not sure we have improved Darren’s mental health as a result but he says thanks anyway and we have a positive experience story about the song “I just cant get enough!” COYH!

Carl and Pete are left hanging without the opposition for the first time this season, Justin is still on holiday but electronic Justin is still here and we have to apologise for a mix up on the Fantasy League. We discuss Valerien's new contract extension, where Scott Duxbury gets his coffee and why this is just the same madness manifesting itself in new and unpredictable ways!! The prediction league is, eventually rescued, yet again, by our EFL Ambassador and Star of "Where's Kev" - i.e. Kev!! John gets a record banning grudge off his chest and Jarvis is now doing his own shout outs!! Carlos is upset to be being outperformed by Justin and a Dog - not necessarily in that order!! Justin and Pete select the only options they can't in a level of incompetence that even this podcast is ashamed of! None of it is any better than you would expect!! COYH!

We discuss last season and a certain Play off semi-final and how good it is that them up the road are experiencing the potential misery that is the jackpot prize after promotion for all the promoted teams’ last season! We discuss Sunderland’s sad Premier League seasons and our nightmare opponents until we finally convince ourselves that we’re glad we didn’t get promoted. Pete starts off on another manager he doesn’t like for no apparent reason before Ant takes us through a strange pre-season for the Black Cats. We cover off the easy to dislike Russell Martin (what with his good hair and all!) and add him to the list of managers we don’t like for no reason. We question if Sunderland could really have kept Ross Stewart. The prediction league goes as badly as we have all come to expect with the highlight being Carlos trying to remember the bands, he knows who have come from Sunderland before Pete and Carl spots a conspiracy as Sunderland will get an extra night to recover as Sunderland will be most likely putting an end to Xisco’s reign at Hillsborough on Friday night!!! As Justin's not here we decide to bring everyone up to date on the Fantasy league and it looks like Justin has done a runner!!! COYH!
