About this episode

Fixtures Episode 


On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Crouchy, Chris and Sid’s are talking all things fixture lists. 


With the busy holiday fixture season fast approaching, the lads thought it was only right to give an insight in to what it is really like as a player when the season fixtures are announced. 


The lads are answering questions like; what are the big fixtures you always look for on the calendar, how the fixture list affects fans as much as the players and the significance of that big opening fixture after your pre season fitness camp. 


With Christmas around the corner, it is only right that the lads also revisit some of the more memorable Christmas clashes and some questionable performances by players who try and pull a fast (yellow) one and get themselves some extra time off over the Yuletide season. 


All this and much more, only on That Peter Crouch Podcast!
