Do Not Scratch Your Eyes

Sean joins us and asks if we didn't play rather poorly against a well drilled Ipswich team, not happy with the midfield and Kone especially, Wendover comes on quite philosophical about the result bearing in mind the insistence on playing out from the back? Admiring of some of the Ipswich line up and we discuss a Lou Orns recommended striker currently at Wimbledon, as we start looking towards the w...

Pete tries to work out how he feels about the performance and the result whilst Alan and then Charlie come on and accentuate the positives and look longer term, Alex feels that Rajovic does need to give us more in open play and Pete compares him to Hirst of Ipswich who offered an all round game where as Rajovic is simply a goalscorer and if doesn't score does the overall team suffer. Benjamin Bloo...

We catch up with Ollie from The Butter Pie podcast and hear about Preston's season that started like the clappers but now have 2 wins in 11. The prediction league is worse than ever and John drawing 1-1 is contentiously given a point penalty if the result is 1-1 which mean he will only get 2 points!! It doesn't make any sense to us either but involved the words "secondary roll". Miguel Britos and...

After many abortive attempts we finally came together last Friday night to get the update on the stewarding from Carlos. We then went through some questions from X/Twitter including club culture, Top Gear, Spice Girls and Wind in the Willows. What actuallyis Mileta Rajovic? Fry Days and Ultimate Fighting Chickens, Yellow Brick Road, murals, mosaics and fan zones, commemorating the Hospital/Club pa...

Neil joins us to tell us that he is pleased with Valerien (who he keeps calling IV!) as he is doing a lot more sorting out than other managers! The use “Go Get’Em Gang “ is used before Justin comes on and confesses to getting up to leave a minute too soon!!! Chris comes on with Sophies choice and brings Hoedt into running for the gold medal purely on the basis of excellent shit-housery having been...

Wendover joins very happy and starts off the Bronze, Silver and Gold medal awards in fine style before realising he forgot Kayembe completely. We then speak to Mrs Wendover who politely turns down our offer of trying to force Greg to cook a meal on the basis of the one meal he tried to cook previously. Stevo joins us from Northern Ireland and forces the improving Northern Ireland International Jam...

We speak to Benjamin Boom of the Benjamin Bloom Football Channel and Blue Monday podcast about Ipswich Town's season, owner, CEO, Manager and squad and especially left back ahead of the Tractor Boys visiting Vicarage Road - after we have had a a now traditional pop at Luton supporting referee Keith Stroud for no reason at all (other than that he is a Luton supporting referee!). Pete complains abou...

We speak with Fraser from Total Saints Podcast to find out how the Saints have got on after relegation and even more after Nathan Jones!!! Unbeaten in 11 games the South coast side will come to us with confidence and Russell Martins obsession to play possession football in all situations. We discuss top scorer Adam Armstrong, how you replace James Ward Prowse and how Wesley Hoedt got on at St Mary...

Rudy, Alfie and Neil join us for calls and discuss the fine margins that games are decided on, who we would sign or where we would strengthen, Lewis improving, Valerien being the boss and much much more before we get onto some epic 5 word and long form review including alliteration, poems, haikus and everyone offering Pete tech support/sarcasm as his phone had a melt down early in the show! Thank...

After some short technical difficulties Pete says that he didn’t think we hit the highs, or the lows of the Norwich game and Rich disagrees calling it the best and most complete 90 minute performance all the better for the quality of the opposition, Uncle Ron joins us to confirm his change of heart in relation to Jake Livermore but sees Hamer’s performance and calmness as a reason why Bachmann sho...

Darren joins us from Oz having switched his work from home day in order to watch the game and call in but Darrens wife insisted on coffee and help moving boxes so Darren misses a lot of the action but swears quite superbly to make up for such things! Australia retains the International Sweary Cup and it is now over to other international callers to try to wrestle it away from Darren and crew! Neil...

Wendover explains that Rajovic is the last player picked in the schoolyard to play football outside of the box but the first to picked inside, and then wants Jake Livermore to come round for tea and cotton wool – Mrs Wendover was unavailable for comment. Alan joins us to further discuss “The Rajovic Conundrum” which turns out not to be a Dan Brown book, but the dilemma faced by Val as to who he st...

Ant from "To Hull & Back" joins us again and collectively we whinge about pies at award ceremonies and Justin does a passable Liverpool accent! We find out how the Tigers are getting on building under Liam Rosenior and we find out there are other forwards in the Championship who resemble a certain Danish forward! The prediction league goes all cock-eyed again as John reveals a better and poetic di...

With twitter acting up and Pete's wifi disappearing every 2 minutes here is the second half edit of the fan reaction after the Leicester game which saw a battling defensive display for 75 minutes and then chickens coming home to roost as Dan Bachmann was sent off for a second yellow bringing Jamie Vardy for the penalty that saw the score finish 2-0. A debate then ensues over Dans first yellow card...

We talk to Sam from @the pinkun and compare tales of woe since mirroring each other for a fair few season. Looking forward to the end of the international window we discover how David Wagner is getting on at Carrow Road and how injury to a member of the Weasley family has had a negative impact on the Canaries season. An exit of technical director is just one of the many things we have also experie...

Ben Aiton of VOTV comes on to "The World vs Carl" to restore honour but is he successful? You'll have to listen to find out - suffice to say Carl swears a lot and may only be wearing underpants! Pete starts off badly and fails to recover per normal COYH! This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Do Not Scratch Your Eyes.

Phillip of Leicester Fan TV joins us for the first time to discuss our trip to the King Power on Saturday!!

Danny Ion returns to defend the family honour as on a previous post match phone in Carl questioned Becky's use of mayonnaise with Chinese food. Having scored all 5 penalties in his first appearance Danny is determined to vanquish Carl despite seemingly being even more aghast about Becky's condiment combinations!!! Justin asks if the opponent can finish off the other teams penalties, Pete keeps usi...

With Carl seemingly unassailable Mike Smart comes in to try to reclaim honour for Mikes everywhere. In a ding dong battle who will do the most triumphing - even though that may not be a word!! in an episode described as "not as long as Blue Cheese Brett" we get to find out! COYH! This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Do Not Scratch Your Eyes. The views in this Podcast are not necessarily t...

We are joined by “Blue Cheese” Brett Leboff who has delayed his dinner to join us. Brett gets very descriptive of the penalties he and Carl either score or miss! Never one to use 5 words when 5,000 will do - Brett questions the questions, his opponent, and the basis of reality itself. Carl meantime tries to keep his winning streak going before finally comparing himself to a circus bear! Brett also...

We cover in detail the stewarding incident from Saturday, the excellent Armistice Day commemoration, stewarding again, peoples’ roles and responsibilities, stewards again (again) and how the ground is arranged if safe standing became a thing – oh and stewarding! We learn about Justins “Wendover’s chest crumb food identification game”, Carl brings up “radiator water” again, Who would we sign if in...

We are joined by Dr Dickie Sutton at his mums in “Darkest Wales” to see if he can put a stop to Carl’s impressive start to the season. We find out which Premier League ground Dickie hasn’t been to and who Troy scored his first league hattrick against plus we hear about the excellent centre back Terry Wilkinson. Goats play a big part at the end which prompts Carl to make a very bold claim!! COYH! T...

Rich joins having thought he wouldn’t get to the game and uses the word “master class” as a positive and a negative, Charlie joins us and remembers Tom Sawyer and the club marking the occasion with a poignant display before kick off and at half time, adding his personal experience regarding family members suffering with dementia and appeals again for Hornets to reach out to Nigel Callaghan current...

Finally, the potential American investment in Watford Football Club is broached, along with speculations about pos...
