The Thamesmen

We're finally back! Andy and I tuck into a delicious bowl of footballing stew as we discuss Oxford's assualt on the league, Reading's downward only rollercoaster ride, the Saudi experiment and home games at the Louisville City F.C. Welcome back tot he Thamesmen!

We get into some high quality puns and Andy gets angry about somethign again.

We bring Graham onto the pod and he tells us about Bradley Dack's new venture, we talk about the UEFA Conference League, Macclesfield Town and a little bit of Reading and Oxford too.

We are back and in person with Andy and Jon, watching the second half of England's 1-0 win over Iceland in the Nations League. We discuss little Liam Kelly, Scroobius Pip, Mark Ramprakash and plenty of other exciting stuff!

We return, fully focussed on Oxford's journey towards the Championship!

We try to live a life without going outside... and without football

We get back up to speed witht he goings on at Reading and Oxford, chat about some transfer business, some VAR (obvs) and give Everton a bit of stick.

Andy's love in for Karl continues as we talk about KR's top signings and styles of football in the league.

It's a special pod this week as we do a full matches worth of chat. We cover England, Oxford Utd's amazing run and Reading's bizarre manegerial decisions. Plus we talked about devilled eggs, walnut whips and other equally important topics.

Needless to say, the Yellows get the last laugh. Oxford on fire and Reading in the doldrums, we get into the highs and lows of league football and Andy begins his love affair with Karl Robinson.

Graham joins the team to talk about the favoured barnets of Blackburn

We get into some Oxford related stats, talk about Reading's efforts in the community and get stuck into some red hot England chat! OXstats

Great start to the season for the Yellows, while the Royals buckle under the weight of expectation.   We also get deep into VAR yet again.

The season has opened once again like a bread bin door. We chat about the transfers and have a look at what's to come over the next few months.

We reach the end of the season for Reading and Oxford, so we look back and the best and worst of both clubs over the last year. And I finally eat my pie.

The season draws to a close and The Yellows and Royals find themselves in positions of safety and will play in League One and The Championship respectively next season. We look back on recent results and how both teams turned it around. Once again we get into referees and what's going wrong with football today.... it's a lot. Ass always, music by the awesome Nightjjar .

We get into the mad goings on at the Kassam and the good teams beating Reading at the Mad. We also predict the rest of the season's games.

Reading rise to win against Wigan and Andy slumps deeper into depression after another loss for the Yellows.

Andy goes dark on us and gives a bleak outlook for Oxford United. Meanwhile, Si keeps trying to see the positives during a mixed time for the Royals.

We discuss Gavin Whyte's boaby and why we all now hate Derby County.

We have a look back at the FA Cup ties and look forward into the transfer window.

We talk about a new beginning at Reading and maybe the start of an ending at Oxford.

It's all change at the Madejski, except the results and the great home run at the Kassam comes to an end,

It's a transformational week at Reading with changes in the boardroom and on the training ground. I win the Golden Gamble and Andy gets involved in tax law.

We get into the latest goings at at the Kassam and the Mad and delve into our latest frustrations in the world of football.
