Crafty Rogues

Adele's a Spurs fan. Sadio Mane needs to be stopped. And The Crafty Rogues don't know Rafa Benitez's address. That may be for the best.

John is open to offers. No one's going to quote Quinno. And it's okay not to know where you're going. But listen to this show before you head off!

Managers come and go, but Cosgrove went and came! He's back from Iceland with stories to tell and opinions to give. Tasty stuff.

It was a rare Monday afternoon recording for the boys, ahead of Cosgrove jetting off to Iceland. It didn't impact the quality of the show one bit. We're not sure if that's good or bad.

A soccer great calls it quits. A cricket great should hang his head in shame. And a Crafty Rogues great is prepping for Iceland. Have some.

Diego Simeone doesn't shake hands. There are no moral victories in the EPL. And don't mix activity with productivity. You're smarter already!

The boys went for a long wander across the professional football landscape, from the Saudi billions at Newcastle to the boot strap existence at Minneapolis City SC. This is tasty stuff.

Fans of The Darkness, Bjorn Again and Mo Salah are in for a treat. Fans of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Claudio Ranieri and Ukrainian Ice Hockey, not so much.

What a week of football! Messi, Ronaldo, and Cosgrove all scored goals. In a world exclusive, Cosgrove speaks to The Crafty Rogues.

Cosgrove is a man of strong opinions. Quinno is a man of occasional opinions. Well, it was an absolute opinion-fest on this week's show. Just ask the US Ryder Cup team

This is a very tasty show, but do yourself a favor and stay through to the very end. The boys lose it, big time. Cracking stuff.

Take some World Cup qualifying controversy, some Premier League prognostication, a dash of All-Ireland excitement, and you've got this week's episode of The Crafty Rogues. Top shelf.

John's back. Quinno never left. And Football Agent looks like the career to get into. The boys have the stats to prove it!

With John in Ireland and Quinno in Minneapolis, the tyranny of distance was no match for a positive attitude and a bit of technology. This show is bi-continental, and it's tasty!

Before John jetted off back to Ireland, he and Quinno broke down another week of futbol, culture and craic. John took a swing at Leeds fans. He didn't miss.

Cosgrove makes incendiary EPL predictions. Quinno apologizes to the environment. And there's a random Morecambe & Wise reference. About time, too.

Man City is Jack Grealish's new club. Barcelona is Leo Messi's old club. And Daniel Levy is a dodgy character. But you already knew that.

Last gasp equalizers...horrendous EPL fashion choices...and the eternal question: where is Chattanooga? Someone must know!

Portland takes its pizzas seriously. Cosgrove used to pretend to be John Motson. And Quinno does not think highly of Lance Armstrong. Something there for everyone.

The boys were suffering from football withdrawal. Mind you, it didn't stop them talking about it. Not much does, to be honest.

So, it's down to this. Is football coming home or going to Rome? Well, here's a clue; Cosgrove learned to speak a little Italian. Ciao

Marco Tardelli, David Bowie, Harry Redknapp, Christian Ramirez, Miley Cyrus and Socrates. That's just a small taste of this week's guest list. Admit it, you're intrigued. Yeah, you are.

John was in Phoenix, 1513 miles away from Quinno, who was in Minneapolis. Yet, despite the tyranny of distance, this is still a cracking show. Russia, Hungary and Turkey may beg to differ.

Ronaldo has a Coke problem. Patrick Vieira has aged better than Roy Keane. And the boys are excited to get to the pub. No news there.

Cosgrove is now 50 and there were tales to be told about the celebrations. Football, politics and networking got a mention, too. Let's put it this way; the boys know a guy.
