Crafty Rogues

Cosgrove's 50th birthday may have gotten a mention or two, but so did Paul Newman, Robert Redford and N'Golo Kanté. Naturally.

John got mocked for his accent. Quinno returned from up north. And Bob Dylan turned 80. Sounds like the ingredients for a show!

Two topics guaranteed to make Cosgrove's head explode are Maggie Thatcher and the Hall of Fame concept. They're both in this show. You've been warned.

Sausage rolls are the perfect food. Marjorie Taylor Greene is a pantomime villain. And football is still the best way to get thirsty. Words to live by,

John was a little nervous. Quinno was a little embarrassed. And Ruben Diaz was compared to Willie Young. High praise indeed

The boys were back at Brit's Pub. Producer Jonathan was back pressing the buttons. It was show #250 and all was well with the world. Sort of.

12 jurors did the right thing. 12 football club owners did the wrong thing. And José Mourinho was a mere footnote. Some week.

Try finding another podcast that covers authoritarian policing, yard work, football/futbol/soccer/sahhkerrrr, and cows. Actually, don't bother; just listen to this one.

Wolves are a Portuguese Wimbledon. Norwich are coming up. And there's only so much you can do with a shuttlecock. Listen and learn.

John's not a big fan of the wind, and Quinno was never good enough to ponce. Sounds like your kind of show, right?

Fashion, films, finance, football. It may seem like this week's show should get an F, but we think it's an A+. Mind you, that gag definitely gets a F.

It's the week of St Patrick's Day, which is the holiest week of the year for Cosgrove. Was it discussed in this week's serving of futbol, culture and craic? Oh goodness me, yes!

John was fired up about Rangers and Royals...Quinno was perplexed by the term 'commoner'...and they were both bothered by Roy Keane. But, really, who isn't?

The Crafty Rogues welcomed March with another thoughtful, considered look at world events. As if! It was basically just futbol, culture, and craic. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

The Perseverance Rover was bought at IKEA, and Seamus Coleman is from Killybegs. These are facts. Listen and learn.

Cosgrove gave himself a new title. Quinno talked about facial reconstruction. Plus there was chat about futbol, rugby, and Billy Crystal. Tasty stuff

Scott McTominay is not a Belgian name. There's nothing like lifting a cup. Gin helps everything. Listen and learn.

What do the Bee Gees, Sarah Ferguson, Anthony Martial, Tommy Tiernan, and Garth Brooks have in common? They're all featured in this week's show. Seriously...all of 'em.

Any show that contains observations about Sean Dyche, Tom Brady, and the My Pillow guy is well worth a listen. This is one of those shows.

It's a new day in America, but it's just another night in the Crafty Rogues Studio. That's actually a good thing. Seriously.

We're not in normal times and normal things shouldn't be happening. That sums up this week's show quite nicely.

It was meant to be a standard, garden variety Crafty Rogues show. Events in Washington DC ensured that it was that, plus a whole lot more!

There was a lot to unpack and an unprecedented amount of pivoting as the boys and Phil Mackey looked back at 2020. No clichés, though.

The boys were in full festive mode as they defied a blizzard to solve the mystery of Roberto Firmino's teeth. There was other stuff too, but mainly Bobby Firmino's teeth!

Sam Allardyce has a job. William Barr doesn't. Wolves are chippy choppy, choppy changey. And 'zeitgeist' is hard to say. Funny, though.
