This is it! The final episode of the season and what a belter it is as well! We trawl through the top 10 in the league after last weeks bottom half review and once again we have some top insight from the people that matter....the fans! It's difficult to look past Manchester City when it comes to dishing out praise, but there are a few other worthy mentions, including for Burnley, Wenger and Liverpool and naturally there are also a few pannings in there.... We also have a quick catch up on our tr...

Here we are ladies and gentlemen! We present to you the first half of our end of season review. This week we have worked our way from the bottom up, with the help of a few friends...yes that's right, you lot! The fans, the one's who inevitably know more than us and it was a pleasure to recap on what has been a year of turmoil for most with the scrap for relegation involving virtually everyone we covered and there were plenty of talking points, particularly when it came to the managerial merry-go...

The end is upon us and the final curtain closed on the Premier League season with very little last day drama, although Southampton survived despite record breaking Manchester City spoiling the party. We said goodbye to Swansea who were relegated losing to next seasons opponents Stoke City. Liverpool clinched the final Champions League place and Spurs and Leicester had a right old dilly ding dong at Wembley! We also say Auf Wiedersehn to Hertha Berlin and catch up on the Championship play offs. O...

It is the penultimate week of the season and with most teams having played two games, it's all but settled now. Stoke were relegated after a loss in front of their own fans, West Brom battled with a win against Spurs, but it wasn't enough and Southampton more or less relegated Swansea in the head to head. Huddersfield shocked everyone picking up points at Stamford Bridge and The Etihad, where Manchester City put on the celebrations for the league win, whilst down the road Manchester United lose ...

Another cracking weekend with the bottom of the Premier League taking center stage. Southampton had a much needed home win, whilst Stoke also applied the pressure with a surprise point at Anfield. Swansea couldn't get anything against Chelsea, along with West Ham and Huddersfield both still looming close to the trap door. West Brom and Crystal Palace are also still fighting too with a pair of superb results. Elsewhere, Jose ruins Wenger's goodbye parade throwing on the battling ram of Fellaini, ...

After having their party spoilt last weekend, Manchester City didn't really get an invite to this weekends, however an impressive win against Spurs and a shock win for West Brom at Old Trafford saw them crowned as champions of the Premier League and they now have the opportunity to break all sorts of records. Meanwhile, Liverpool keep the pressure on for second, there are huge wins for Palace, Huddersfield and Newcastle which should see them all safe, unlike Southampton who gifted Chelsea three ...

It's been a huge week for the TSP boys which has seen them take in 3 cities in two countries within and matter of days and they have just about lived to tell the tale, quite literally!

It's a birthday special for one of the Pod, although his team let him down. Aston Villa are crumbling, however there was still plenty to discuss as the FA Cup reached the quarter final stage where everyone who should have won did so, however it wasn't quite so cut and dry where we had some more crumbles for Stoke and West Brom dropping them further down towards the Championship. Amazingly a trip to Germany saw the Pod Choice Hertha Berlin pick up a rare three points and as ever we smash out a qu...

A weekend of absolute narrative and the boys are all over it! Manchester United used brute force to beat Liverpool, whilst Southampton and West Brom just crumbled to leave themselves in trouble. Everton showed some fight and Arsenal got back to winning ways. In the Championship Villa romped home and put themselves right in the mix with a huge win against top of the table Wolves. There is also the usual dull trip to Germany and an abject performance in the quiz! Join Mitchell Willis and Michael H...

We're back and we're slowly thawing out, but the action at the bottom of the table is getting hotter and hotter! There were teams pulling away, teams getting dragged back into it and some....well they just stayed where they were. Chelsea were slowly killing the beautiful game that we all love (for no reason) and there was very little to talk about elsewhere given pretty much everywhere else was snowed off!

Here we go again ladies and gentlemen! Get involved and warm your cockles with us as we get stuck in to the Carabao Cup Final, it's fair to say there were a few talking points ("disgrace"). There was also the small matter of the Premier League where Manchester United won in unfamiliar fashion, Liverpool won in familiar fashion and there was the battle at the bottom where nothing really became much clearer. Well there is West Brom and Pardew who seem to be self destructing! Join Mitchell Willis a...

It's FA Cup Fifth Round weekend and the boys are all over it. Big Steve and The Dale get as close to an upset as we could see this weekend, Pardiola's lads are a nightmare and no match for a bunch of Saints, whilst Chelsea hunt for silverware with the Lions scaring off the Tigers, however the little Foxes could potentially have the final say..... There is also more movement in the world's best league, The Championship and a terrible result for Die Lads in Germany. Join Mitchell Willis and Michae...

It is all hotting up down at the bottom of the Premier League and the boys are all over it. Huge wins for Huddersfield, Swansea and Newcastle means the bottom 10 are all changing hands. There is also a North London Derby (kind of), Manchester City and Aguero in sizzling form and a small matter of the Second City Derby where a win for Aston Villa meant things were looking rosy for 50% of the pod, the less said the better for the other half after this weekend......

Here we go again ladies and gentlemen and although we're a little bit later than normal this week, it's been well worth the wait....kind of! There were some bore draws, some big scores and some sublime pieces of skill with a few goal of the month/season contenders thrown in for good measure. Another one bites the dust on the managerial merry-go-round, but as Silva jumps off, Gracia is in like Flynn!
