New Year

We’re back for the new year! Musa and Ryan give some quick FA Cup thoughts (06:35), before easing back into things with a mailbag (17:34) and discussing some New Year’s viewing and listening material. They answer some questions about which club’s Christmas party they’d like to attend (24:58), which album they would’ve liked to have witnessed being recorded (28:05), their dream round-the-world football trip (34:45) and mundane activities with footballers or managers (41:24). This was recorded before the news of Franz Beckenbauer's passing, which we'll cover on Thursday's episode.
