#32 The 1997/98 Season with Andy Kind and Jamie Sutherland

Listen on

Episode notes

Host Carl Jones is joined by two comedians for a deep dive into the 1997/98 Premier League season. Everton fan Jamie Sutherland and Arsenal fan Andy Kind help retell the stories of hugely contrasting seasons for their respective teams and plenty more besides as Cantona left, Michael Owen emerged Temuri Ketsbaia kicked the sh*t out of some hoardings. 

Fergie replaces his prodigal frontman with Teddy Sheringham with limited success, Arsene Wengers gets his feet under the table in a spectacular first full season in charge by replacing the pre-match menus and the midfield at Highbury and Christian Gross brings his Tube ticket to a press conference. All of that and much more. 

We also decide who scored the Goal of the Season, select the greatest ever Premier League import from Bulgaria and end with a 97/98 themed round of #PlayYourAppsRight.
