The Hooligan's Pitch

We back! We've both been busy boys, but had some time for a late hydration and chat! The table is splitting into two very quickly with teams making it very clear on their season direction. The North London Derby was a tug-of-war, with Liverpool getting it done against the Hammers, and the Robot / Man City staying perfect this season! Week 6 is in the bag!

Hattricks all around! Ferguson, Haaland, and Son all need to take a bow for their stellar performance this weekend. We had our boy Matty T get his first EPL clean sheet against Chelsea, Liverpool winning in dominant fashion, and Arsenal providing a thriller heading into the international break!

Natural Selection has occurred and Newcastle has officially been Darwizzied! Two late goals from the Liverpool 10-sided squad took down the Zebras in a potential match of the year. We have also discovered that just because you are down a man doesn't mean you are out!

You get a red! You get a red! And YOU! Get a red, too. This seemed to be the theme of week 2 in the EPL. With some great matches in week 2, we are catching glimpses of City not being Champion like, Tottenham performing with their all-time best, and Spain winning the Women's World Cup!

It is the 1 year anniversary of the Hooligan's Pitch Podcast! Thank you all for being here and we hope to continue with our movement! But onto what's happening down under...USA out, Canada out, Germany....out! Teams that expected to go deep have bounced out early while the likes of Japan, Spain, and England look hungry. We discuss the premier league starting this Friday and Messi is becoming the M...

WE"RE BACK! Summer is in full swing and so are the women out in Australia and New Zealand. The top 16 teams are taking care of business, with only a few hiccups, but the main topic of conversation is will the USWNT 3peat? The Goat has arrived in Miami, bringing out Beckham tears and Lebron James hugs.

The EPL has ended, but the European Football season is still going strong! We have the clash between Inter Milan and Manchester City this Saturday. Will City finally get the trophy that has been looming over their golden era? Chad and Michael discuss the transfer rumors, the Saudi League becoming China 2.0 or MLS, and the legend himself, Zlatan retiring.

The EPL season is over! Man City took the cake, and Everton hang on for dear life, all while Chad and Michael share their favorite moments of the season and pass out grades to all the premier league teams!

Reality is setting in for the top and bottom half of the EPL table. With Southampton officially relegated, where do they go next? The Seagulls took down the Gunners in a passionate 3-0 victory, and Chelsea has a new man in charge....again.

11 days later, and here we are! Chad and Michael go over the 47 goals scored in the last week, including the Jota revenge goal, Odegaard's pin-point cornered goals, and Everton figuring out how to finish!

It's Midnight! Michael & Chad decided to do a late-night episode from the crazy week we had starting with the City vs. Arsenal game that we've all been waiting for, Liverpool sneaking by, and could Chelsea really fall to the bottom?

Arsenal getting their third draw in a row, Man City creeping closely behind, Tottenham getting absolutely cooked, and a bit of a shift near the bottom as Chad and Michael discuss Match Day 32.

Only seven matches left! In this episode, Bournemouth got their redemption, the 3,4,5,6,7,8 spots will be shifting in the next weeks, Michael declares Crystal Palace is not a bottom-three team, and Chad stays cool about Arsenal's title chances.

After Chad and Michael hyped up the Liverpool v. Arsenal match all week, we think the clubs delivered one of the more exciting matches we've had this year dispute the draw. We saw great goals, lots of yellow cards, managers hugging while looking exhausted, and a linesman who wanted violence! We talk relegations, Frankie L's Chelsea return, and the top 4 staying true? Listen and find out!

The dirty thirty episode carries a lot of weight with all the managers being sacked. From Conte to Potter, and Brenden Rodger's tenure ending at the end of the season, Chad and Michael could say they predicted some, but not all of the 9 firings this season! In other news, Arsenal is still on top with City hanging around, the race for 3,4,5,6 is getting close as is the bottom 12-20.

We're back! The FA Cup didn't allow every team to play this weekend, but we still got plenty of juicy material. With Fulham losing their minds, Conte just about at his breaking point, VAR still being VAR, and Arsenal cruising along, Chad and Michael discuss what is to come in these last 10 weeks!

Episode 28!! In this episode, Liverpool really let us down after their 1-0 loss to Bournemouth, Arsenal is flying high with Jesus coming back, we talk about Crystal Palace and their fraudulent ways, and the Sean Dyche effect.

SEVEN! SEVEN! SEVEN! Liverpool absolutely demolish the "United" Red Devils, Chelsea finally get their goal of the month, Jose Sa leaped like a pro, and Arsenal pulled off the comeback of the year!

Episode 26!! In this episode, Chad and Michael discuss a weekend of football that had 2 blowouts and a few close games. Arsenal stays at the top, Liverpool struggles against Palace, the Hammers get 4, and Chelsea has fewer goals than Ollie Watkins in 2023!

Episode 25!! A quarter of a century and we're still going strong. Happy days for Michael and Chad as our teams bounce back while recognizing Man United's potential, Chelsea v Southampton was a sight to see, and we get the Arteta impression we've been waiting for!

On this episode, Chad and Michael vent about the VAR controversies, Manchester City and all the rules they broke, Bednarek Rust, Team-Player-Goal of the week, and Champions League Fantasy Rosters!

This weekend we got to see 2 red cards, the Burnley Bros are back, Everton says "remember us", and Liverpool says "nobody looks over here!!!"

Chad and Michael finish off the rest of our Winter Transfer Team, gawk at Chelsea's ridiculous moves, and give a draft of our relegation teams.

Chad, Michael, and a special guest Zach all come together to talk Leeds Untied, the Weston Mckinnie transfers, USMNT replaces, and the last of the transfers.

In Episode 20, Chad and I discuss the team getting close to beating City, Liverpool and Chelsea are now mid-table teams, Arsenal looking more and more like champions, and Haaland has outscored how many teams?!
