Episode 17: The Tea Party Podcast episode 17

Hey up there's another one out! Yeah, we're back with our regular trip down memory lane, to a time when the Team of the 90s had the best fanzine in the country. It's issue 17 this time, and on the subject of Teams of the Decade, we look back at another win over Palace, managed by fedora-wearing berk Malcolm Allison, albeit in pre-fedora days. Bizarre 90s broadcasting regulations (yep the country was insane then, too) mean that Alan Rothwell makes a guest appearance, and there's a full report fro...

Episode 16: The Tea Party Podcast episode 16

We're back, baby! Yep, despite saying that the last episode, over 2 years ago (shocked face), would be the last standalone one prior to joining forces with "The Scarf Bergara Wore," here we are. We're liars, what can we say? Slight change of format, as we've sacked off the guests. Dead weight, frankly. Only kidding - head on over to https://scarfbergarawore.co.uk for yer guests. This is just Dave, scratching himself on air. Er, scratching an itch. Listen to the intro if you're not sure what that...

The Tea Party Podcast Episode 15

Here we go with the final standalone TTP podcast, and it's episode 14b, with TTP original Rob Beswick and Friend of the Podcast Stuart White. Again, we were in the Blossoms back in late March, and so weren't aware of how the season would end (although we all had a pretty good idea by then, of course) In fanzine terms, we mainly discuss issue 16 (we thought we'd fit 15 in at a later date, which intention was overtaken by events, of course), which had a cover wholly created by Rob, ahead of the Le...

The Tea Party Podcast episode 14

Finally! Episode 14 arrives in your earboxes. Special guests Rob Beswick and Stuart White talks all things early 90s County, with Wembley memories - not just Stoke (sob) and Peterborough (sob), but also Vale (sob) and Burnley (FFS). We also discuss keeping in touch with County excitement from Indonesia in a pre-internet age (not easy). Other topics include the Stoke semi and the madness afterwards, Sky TV naivety, Brett Angell's Southend tribunal shenanigans, John Peel being a TTP fan, and unfor...

The Tea Party Podcast episode 12a

Sooo, after a bit of a summer break, we've started recording more podcasts. Well, if you will keep listening to them that's what's gonna happen. It's your fault. The guest for this one was Ken Riley, County fan of many years, and someone who a lot of fans will know, even if they haven't met him directly. Ken used to run coaches to away games in the pre-success/pre-fanzine days - and as we've heavily implied, those two things are inextricably linked of course. I think we can all agree that County...
