The Thamesmen

The FA Cup is here and so is another set of underwhelming results for the Us and the Rs.

Andy gets very upset about Nile Ranger and Si enjoys a bit of fun at the Mad Stad.

Welcome back aboard the Worldy bus! We talk about Reading's inexpliacble 3-1 win against Millwall, Oxford's decent 0-0 at Southend and a host of other EFL related gubbins! And Gareth is back!

We are very proud to have our new theme tune on the show! Music provided by the enormously talented Nightjjar , fresh from supporting Idlewild's Roddy Woomble on his UK tour Nightjjar have prepared an awesome new track that will be up front on the show from now on. Check them out on Spotify right here. Today we talk about Oxford's win against Plymouth, how Karl got ghosted and look at Friday's Nat...

Another pair of poor results for the Thames Valley boys. Andy goes big on KR and Si is confused by PC...

Things get worse at the Kassam and get better at the Madejski. We have a look at what Karl Robinson is doing wrong and discuss what might get the Yellow's out of their funk. Also, Gareth McCleary gets his first mench of the season.

I don't why I thought this was Episode 16... It's clearly Episode 21, where we discuss Reading's first home win of the season, Oxford's dissapointing result against Walsall, catch up with the EFL in general and talk about some exciting news out of the Kassam.

Things looking up at the Kassam and looking down at the Madejski. Andy enjoys a day out and we both go a bit too deep into the depths of football social media.

Andy heads to the Madejski Stadium for the first time and Reading lose yet again.  

Si makes a visit to the Kassam, Oxford get their first win of the season and Reading snatch a last minute equaliser at Aston Villa. We also get stuck DOGSO and crisps at Charlton.

Andy and I get stuck into the football league and look at all three divisions as the season gets going and highlight the potential ups and downs. We also lament the slow start to the season for both the Royals and the Yellows.

The Thames Valley teams get off to a less than preferable start and Andy and Si start to get a feel for their new look sides. This episode was recorded using a tethered phone on 3G from a secure location in the English wilderness, so apologies for the poor quality, which is far below our usual standard. Next week we'll be back to normal.  

The World Cup is over and we go over some of our favourite moments and look forward to the domestic season ahead.    

England's World Cup dream is over, but the French and Croatians dream on! We discuss England's sad exit and wonderful tournament, look to the final and even further into the future.  

We march on and on in one of the best World Cup tournaments ever! We have a slightly hungover review of the quarter finals and look forward to a very big week.

Absolutely incredible scenes in Moscow as England break their World Cup hoodoo and win a penalty shootout against Columbia. Join the boys on the pod as they recover from a momentous evening.

We get tucked into the second round as we say goodbye to some of the world's top players and say hello to the new guard.

Si gives Gatesy-G a bit of stick, Jon has a VAR love-in and Andy mentions how bad Mitro was at the Kassam..... again.

The World Cup has gone mental and so have we....   Messi Cake:  https://twitter.com/FCBarcelonaFl/status/1010976786744823809 Big Sam, Big Mac:  https://twitter.com/FootyHumour/status/1010879228915707905  

We take the pod on the road down to Brighton beach!

England gets things going with a Harery Kane brace and some Shelvey-esque passing from Henderson. We get going on some red hot chat.

The boys get deep into what has been a fantastic start to the World Cup. Plus, Germany lose!

The time for talk is not quite over and we round out our group discussion and get ready for the big one!

We get deep into the World Cup and discuss the teams in Groups A to D.

I get very angry about the Champions League Final. Back to normal programming next week...
