Great podcast. Thanks for the interview Sheen. Think he is a great actor.
Wonderful news that the podcast is now daily.
Thanks Lou for the support. Each episode of the daily EPL Talk Podcast will be approximately 30 minutes — some around 45-60 mins. Definitely better than some of the 2 hour drivel out there ; )

Oh Gaffer, that’s not very impartial after all the ‘I support them’ nonsense you’ve been spouting, isn’t it?
Good point, John, but it was said in a good natured and tongue-in-cheek manner (hence the smiley face).

30 to 45 mins is enough. The two hour ones are way to long. A hour maybe after some big events, such as an important derby or international match.
30-45 mins is the goal. Once in a while we may end up at the one hour mark, but it’ll be the exception to the rule. No worries. Thanks Lou.

Sheen’s great. Looking forward to the movie — Clough was a hero to me growing up….true working class hero. Our Mohammed Ali!
Same here. I have very vivid memories of watching Nottingham Forest beat Malmo in the final of the European Cup in 1979. I was only 9 at the time, but Cloughie was definitely a larger-than-life hero to me.
I just hope that the soccer fans in NY and LA go to see the movie in droves to increase the likelihood of a nationwide release! I want to see this film in a local movie theatre!

Trev Francis’ headed goal, classic cross from John Robertson. What was not to like?
Well, if we don’t get the movie….we’ll wait for the DVD!

Where are you located? Maybe it will come to you soon
Here’s the release date list… for now!

Excellent. The film will be playing near me on October 30th! Thanks Shosh.

Great news about the daily podcast, but is Kartik going to be hosting any podcasts??
Yep, he’ll be hosting tomorrow’s podcast featuring an interview with the producer of FIFA 10. Kartik is on his way to India right now, so I’ve been stepping in for him the last couple of days.
Cheers,
