About this episode

We’re back to soothe those Monday blues with another Best Of… episode, this time from the 2016/17 season!


There is, gloriously, an awful lot of Kevin Keegan’s adventures in this episode. From being accosted in Belgrade to somehow coming third in a Thai cup final, there’s a lovely selection of King Kev material. Elsewhere, we’ve got a run down of some fantastic Botswanan team names, Gareth Southgate being petrified about the England job and Pete’s overdue library fines. Plus we get a curious email about a certain stag do from a Steve@hotmail.com….


Many thanks to infamous YouTuber Linford Grimes for their inspiration and help in compiling old content. We salute you.
