On this week's episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids and Chris are joined once again by the one and only Tom Fordyce, where we ask if a long ball is now officially a "successful launch"?! And what exactly is a football manager's philosophy supposed to mean?!
We also investigate the increasingly ridiculous world of football stewards, including why they're now warming up like professional athletes and whether they're actually capable of catching a pitch invader. Speaking of which, the lads make a VERY important request for the podcast's first-ever streaker...
There's plenty of football chat too, as the boys debate whether Brighton could genuinely mount a Premier League title challenge, discuss Arsenal's impressive performance against Liverpool and get stuck into Manchester United's ongoing struggles. Is the problem bigger than the manager, and can their new ownership consortium really turn things around? Meanwhile, Spurs fans finally have something to smile about as the lads discuss whether their season is about to really take off.
And, of course, there's the usual predictions, some questionable terminology and the introduction of a brand-new phrase that might just take over the football world... HOCKEY STICK, BANG!
