Tall or Nothing
About this episode
Welcome along to an episode where discussion about the football is supplemented with updates on referees’ names on the back of shirts, questioning how many people are required in one VAR room and how World Cup statistics are improving conversion rates on dating apps thanks to Statman Dave’s numbers. Crouchy discusses what would best incentivise a group of players turning out for their nation and Chris has some ingenious suggestions for stat-based dating apps from listeners and the lads.
