4 I listen to on a fairly regular basis. My faves in order:
1) The Fighting Cock
Not a great deal on insight, basically just mates chatting about spurs and other things. Find it genuinely funny. Always enjoy it.
2) View from the Lane
Only recently started listening to this but really good. Think the presenters write for the Athletic but much more professional and journalistic.
3) Extra Inch
Much more tactical focussed which I do find interesting. Windy does a good job as host albeit he’s a bit wet. Bardi has interesting views albeit I don’t always agree with him. Nathan A Clarke seems like a douche though. Doesn’t say an awful lot other than sneers and “yeah I guess so" whenever windy says anything. Thinks he’s a tactical whizz for some reason.
4) Last Word on Spurs
Is lively but can get a bit annoying / feels a bit american. Don’t often finish an episode.
Any others I should check out?

So Edin has a athletic subscription but is yet to copy a paste any article to share with his Ja friends

"The episodes which was just windy and Nathan over the summer was awful. Just both agreeing with each other over and over."
Agree.
"TEI is quite tedious right now because windy is in a Mourinho depression and Nathan good on players profile and that but otherwise doesn’t really say much."
Agree.
Windy needs to temper that too cos he's far too thin-skinned / sensitive to take the heat when he says ridiculous hyperbole like he "wouldn't swap those years with Poch for 10 trophies" or whatever he said.
I get the point and I do agree, but 10 trophies is just ridiculous.

With me alot depends on whats happening in the here and now.
I've listened to all 4 this week as I'm obsessing about Spurs after thrashing Utd at the weekend. However the week after the Everton game I didn't listen to any of them.
VFTL is probably my favourite but I take the point about the Athletic adverts.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Exactly that
I avoid this place and twitter after we've lost too as I don't want to think about football.
This week after the wins and the transfer window I can't get enough.

Regarding general football shows, the totally football show is excellent.
James Richardson is by far the best football presenter around. Love listening to him, whilst the experts they get on are very interesting. The European show is especially good.

No idea why, I probably read an article a month. Forget about it and paid for another years worth the other day as well

Tried the last LWoS episode. It's alright but half of it is them shilling the Athletic or some other crap. Not for me.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don’t get what this means?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think it was 5 adverts in the hour I listened. I get they're going to promote the Athletic but I find the interruptions to promote websites and such annoying. As I understand it if you pay you get them ad free. Fair enough, but it's not a great model to punish those that don't pay rather than reward (with extra content) those that do.

I like the Radio 5 football pod. Generally I can take or leave pundit insights. Unless they're getting interesting guests on it's like overhearing lads in the pub.
