Episode notes

Football has more than one royal family.

Ya dun know who that is! It's the sauciest team in the game with the spiciest takes on the pitch, goddammit. The World's Greatest Podcast™©®, the sinister septuplet your significant other warned you about, the very best that no one ever was (word to Ash from Pokémon), The Banter Pub FC is back with another episode fresh out of the BFPC Time Capsule.

See? Told you we're steady grinding. Don't watch that, cuz.

Anyway, the episode. Recorded 27 January 2022, The Father of All Fathers Ama is lord of the manor this week with El Capitan Neal, Adam, Rosler, and Joseph filling out the rest of the distinguished delegates at the banquet table. Mixing it up this week, it's not Around The Pitch but AFCON The Pitch; where our heroes dive right into the glory that is the African Cup of Nations while domestic campaigns are suspended due to the international break. Before getting into the action, The Pub sent its sincere condolences and sympathies to those affected by the crush in Yaoundé that regrettably killed eight people. After that moment of reflection, the lads dug right into the astounding results from Tunisia knocking Nigeria out; Cameroon humbling Comoros (but not before Comoros produced one of the finest goals in tournament history); Morocco breaking Malawian hearts, and The Gambia continuing their AFCON fairy-tale by dispatching Guinea. Three matches went to penalties, and Senegal v. Cape Verde was a sending-off fest...  you're going to love this week's AFCON-flavoured edition of Around The Pitch.

The Main Segment is another Transfer Tease where big moves and rumoured big moves are analysed down to the final signature. The episode wraps with Extra Time. You know the deal: sixty seconds. All heart. All passion. No filler.

You should get more snacks if you haven't already because... tuh. Baby. This BPFC time capsule? Sweetie, it's FULL.

You love it tho.

The Pub Awaits...
