"Cheers, Geoff" - GUEST Geoff Shreeves -...

The Revive Lounge
About this episode

On this week’s episode of the Joy of Football Podcast, Neil and Martin are joined by the one and only Geoff Shreeves.

They discuss Geoff’s life and times, from working at Sky, contributing to Fifa with Martin (and his famous catchphrase), fights with Sir Alex Ferguson, classic interviews (including Branislav Ivanovic telling that he won't be playing in the Champions League Final), an so much MORE!

It was a long podcast, but he's a touch cookie... I think he'll carry on.


Join Neil Barnett (former Chelsea touch-liner announce and football journalist) alongside the voice of the Premier League Martin Tyler in celebrating the greatest addiction in the World!
