Post-Christmas Reflections
00:00:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hello, welcome back to the Daily Palace podcast. I'm Joe Lodge and with me today is Wale Bakare. How are you doing Wale?
00:00:19
Wale Bakare
Chris will be on the pot tonight. Joe, how are you doing? I hope you had a fun Christmas.
00:00:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, it was fun, thanks mate, it was fun. I'm feeling the effects of it now. You can't tell owing to the consistent nasality of my voice all year round, but I'm a bit bummed up, a bit of a cold at this point, and generally feel my body's slightly battered. I'm greasy, I'm a max chocolate capacity, and I had too much mulled wine, but I'm good spirits. I'm looking forward to capping it all off with a New Year's Eve blowout and then heading into 2025 a better and reformed man I'm sure.
Crystal Palace vs Southampton: Match Overview
00:01:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Today we'll discuss the Eagles 2-1 home win over Southampton before finishing up with a little quiz. So starting with the match, what do you think Wylie? Good Palace performance, well-learned three points?
00:01:20
Wale Bakare
Well, yeah, um well in three points, important three points, I have to say. um I was making the joke that, you know, Southampton were bottom of the, bottom of the log. I mean, bottom of the league. Everyone sort of expected, you know, Palace to get a result against Southampton. And if you're going to be taken seriously as regards your ah Premier League ambitions, you then need to get results against you know the teams below you and maybe those ones around you. And you know after after after at the very after a very inconsistent start to the season for Palace, the last couple of weeks of seeing you know the team grinding our results and building some level of
Key Player Performances
00:02:09
Wale Bakare
momentum. So ah and anything other than the win against Southampton would
00:02:13
Wale Bakare
really have thrown Spanish to the wheels of whatever, you know, Glassner was doing. So it it was a needed result. It was a deserved result overall. Southampton shaded possession, so to speak, because of the kind of football that they played. There's been individuals who said,
00:02:29
Wale Bakare
ah the the type of football they play might be the reason they wouldn't be in the Premier League next season. But, you know, Palace looked very dangerous. um Yes, Southampton created a couple of chances, but the bigger chances in the game were created by Palace. Ramsdale made some interesting saves in the game and overall palace looked like the the side with the with more bite, so to speak, of the two sides. And and and that they they totally deserved the result. But but for me, yeah describing the result is a very, very needed result. Yes, deserved, but more needed for a palace.
00:03:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, i think um I think you're right. You're right there. Well, definitely. It's surprisingly, ah the expected goal stats actually did have the game about 2-1, which really shocked me because I i felt like Palace had tons of great chances
Tactical Analysis: Styles and Strategies
00:03:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
to the score. They didn't take, as you say, partly due to really good performance from ah Aaron Ramsdale. But I think it was it was very encouraging. I mean, Southampton,
00:03:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
seem to have changed the way they play a little bit under Eurochigan as early days, but I don't think they quite present chances in the same way. They went long quite a lot. um Didn't do as much kind of kamikaze, tikitaka, and I think that forced Palace to play through them a bit more, intricately, be a bit more creative.
00:04:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
um
00:04:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
in a way they've struggled to quite often this season, simply really well in ah the end back in the last year. And this year when a teams in a sort of deep block against Palace as Southampton kind of got into a few times in defence, they've often looked a little unsure of how to house' deal with that. And in this game, that wasn't the case. You can see just the kind of confidence and understanding the team have built up between them.
00:04:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
is allowing them to pick the lock when teams are entrenched a bit like that. ah A couple of good examples where there's a good learner effort in the first half, isn't there, which is comes off some really nice interchange between like him, Hughes, and Eze. And then there's a point where Sa almost manages to cut the ball across for a tap-in from a tester again.
00:05:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
Ramsdale as well to cut it out and and that one came from uh I can't remember who with but um Hugh's playing another like lovely one too and then delicate little pass into perfectly weighted kind of little ball into this tiny bit of space which Sal's running on to Palace's ability to just grind teams down like that um I think was really encouraging to see, yeah, they don't have to rely. If they can keep that up, they don't have to rely entirely on sort of Mateta flicking balls onto his miner, Sa, anymore. Which players stood out for you in this game? Who do you think were the key men in getting Palace over the line?
00:05:46
Wale Bakare
Well, but but when you put it like that, getting over the lines, then it has to be easy. But then ah that was I was going to say a play of the match for me was Trevor Shaloba. um ah was you know the The game against Southampton was the perfect game for Mackay to be missing because of you know accumulating five yellow cards.
00:06:07
Wale Bakare
um ah present that that game presented an opportunity for Richads, of course, who came in for a game. Richads, remember, I think came in for Shalover a couple of weeks ago. So um was there was a new individual, it was a new dynamic, so to speak, Shalover, Richads, and Lacoix in the center of that three-man defense. And I was a bit worried because we we've seen a couple of times this season where a new,
00:06:37
Wale Bakare
players coming into the backline have affected, you know, the the the performance of the defense. But Xaloba held his ground just like, you know, the other guys anyway. Xaloba did good in the game, took his goal well, um just as we've he he continues to show his predatory instincts in the box. And, um you know, we we saw that again against Southampton yesterday.
00:07:00
Wale Bakare
um So for me, it was that player that stood out for me. Of course, I was particularly glad for AZ getting that goal. Glastner was speaking after the game about...
00:07:12
Wale Bakare
how recent events have appeared to have gotten to him. i He's been feeling a bit unlucky of recent at the injury, so he's had a somewhat stop-start season. And getting that goal yesterday, a trademark finish, a wonderful shot, ah putting it in in a very great place, far beyond the reach of Ariram still. And you could see in his reaction after the goal that ah there was some sense of relief for him. so that he's another player that did good. But when you look at the entire forward line, they kept, you know, just as you mentioned earlier about the interchange of passes, creating chances, ah they looked dangerous and they they looked like they could out-tout something. You know, a lot of times in that game, a smile aside, the grior we'll use continues to
00:08:05
Wale Bakare
i dont I don't know whether I can say it continues, it's rejuvenated form, so to speak, but you know, it continues to play well and the the attacking players just just did good, but if I'm to pick, you know, one particular player has to be Trevor Shallowbaugh, you know, I had a great game yesterday for me.
00:08:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I'd agree with all those shouts. I think, um as you say, Eze's kind of had a tough few games. Not that he's played particularly badly, he's just sort of been a bit unlucky. And you've got a sense that he was, as Glaston's been saying about him, sort of trying too hard, trying to force it a bit and not playing relaxed and natural because he's been bothered by the fact that he's only been on one goal list this season of the league um up until um so getting that that goal yesterday against Southampton and I think you could just see it in him that some kind of weight had been lifted, um played with great freedom.
00:09:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
great creativity. He had that moment at the end where yeah he flicks the ball up over the Southampton defender.
00:09:16
Wale Bakare
Yeah.
00:09:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
Is it Harwood Bellis? Well, I can't remember exactly who it was um and windsor wins a ah free kick right on the edge of the box. Nearly pops it under the wall for a goal and it would have been the most Ronaldinho-esque goal in Premier League history to win it like that and and score it like that.
00:09:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
would have been amazing. I disappointed that that shot was ultimately blocked by the foot of one of the players jumping in the wall for Southampton. It didn't hit.
00:09:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
Carl Walker Peters, who was playing the draft Excluder role, lined up behind the wall, because I've realised that I've never actually really i i've ever seen the ball actually hit the draft Excluder.
00:09:57
Wale Bakare
Yeah.
00:10:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
and There is something funny about getting hit on the back of the head we bull when the only one of like 30,000 odd people in the stadium who doesn't know it's coming.
00:10:17
Wale Bakare
teacher To be honest, it's not many times you know players try to go under the wall anyway.
00:10:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's your own job.
00:10:21
Wale Bakare
so
00:10:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, no no, no, you assume we're not going to try out of them there, do you? But yeah, nearly paid off. and really pleasing. And I've also always got to give good credit to my boy, John Felipe Mateta, just for the everything. Everything was sacrificial. I think for him, this game, like he was running the channels really well.
00:10:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
really clever dummy nearly lets in Munoz to score in the first half where he kind of looks as if he's going to back heal it and and lets it run to man the better position. We'll come on to a discussion about this later, but playing the role of basically there to obstruct the keeper from the corners, which which works well and helps tell them to get that goal.
00:11:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
um when he might fancy being someone that who's there to attack a court on himself with with his size and aerial prowess. I'm happy to, again, do the sacrificial role for the benefit of the team. And yeah, spent all game kind dropping deep to win headers on to Saar and stuff. I thought it was a proper, you know good leading man's performance. The only thing I was sure of was him being able to grab a goal himself, but he's earned himself one of these from me.
00:11:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
between sound effects.
00:11:39
Wale Bakare
ah but
00:11:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
help
00:11:40
Wale Bakare
i bet I bet he would end up on the bench for you.
00:11:48
Wale Bakare
You're going to look at him and say, did you see the way he was sitting on the bench? He just sat so calmly, his end up.
00:11:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
I have actually praised his actions on the bench before once. but Which game was it? Was it Brighton where he came off and he was like,
00:12:03
Wale Bakare
Yeah, then I bet he was, you know, almost better and all that.
00:12:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
leading 8-1-0. I'm like one of those 1-0 fanboys on Twitter who say, I'll manage Portugal to the Euro's final.
00:12:12
Wale Bakare
Yeah.
00:12:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, John Fleeber, Tetzer, managed Palace to that win.
00:12:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
Anyway, speaking of things that deserve a boom sound effect, um we will stop here and have a word from our excellent sponsors.
00:12:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
So one of the
VAR Controversy: Chalobah's Goal
00:12:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
major talking points from this match is LERF. Ramsdale, you're at Southampton, all pretty peeved that Chaliber's goal stood because of it a perception that Mateta was um obstructing Aaron Ramsdale for the corner, making it hard for him to come and claim by standing there giving him a bit of a push. um Yeah, freeing up the goal for Chaliber to head into taking the goalie out of the equation.
00:13:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't think it should have stood for that. What do you think? Do you think they've got a point?
00:13:37
Wale Bakare
Well, yes, they might actually have a point, to be honest. um However, it's one of those decisions where apparently that have stopped with the on-field decision. And we've seen that happen a lot this season where ah you know, the VAR officials have just ah gone with whatever the on-field official, you know, I said. I bet if the um referee yesterday had cancelled the goal, we would still have that, probably saying, yeah, there was an infringement on Aaron Ramm still. But
00:14:11
Wale Bakare
Overall, it was one of those that was on the borderline. It could have gone either way, to be honest. ah In virtually every game this season, especially with the Connor Kicks, you see a lot of interesting setups with Connor Kicks. Us now, ah the most interesting this season was in Liverpool, almost sort of copying that without shame in the last couple of games you know as well. but um every team and but But one thing that is um that that we continue to see is there is always a one attacker on the goalkeeper. The goalkeepers, for some reason, don't mind a bit of a pushback or back and forth as well. Some of them tend to get carried away in that. And and that that's the job of that person on the goalkeeper. You're trying to get in the goalkeeper's head. You're trying to ah distract him from focusing on the ball.
00:15:01
Wale Bakare
ah was the push that there was definitely and from Mateta was that enough for our Ramsdale collapse like a pack of cards I don't think so ah goalkeepers need to be stronger than that you know on their line um sometimes we've we've we've so particularly i've I've come out to say maybe goalkeepers tend to get too much protection ah you know in their goal because sometimes you find the slightest touch and there's a foul and that for me yesterday was borderline you know could see reason why the referee thought that that's not enough and I could see reason why the the vile officials agreed with the referee but at the same time ah if if the referee had given a foul we probably would be here saying yeah maybe they were right to give a foul because it it was just very close but Rumsdale has got to be stronger than that
00:15:58
Wale Bakare
that is something we see in almost every kind of kick these days. It will get the that sort of attention again when well we kept seeing that yesterday, but we will get that again. I hope it's learned from it for their sake anyway. But as far as yesterday's goal was concerned,
00:16:18
Wale Bakare
If that had happened in the Palace box, I'm sure Glastner would also have quite similar opinions to Ramsdale and Eureka and a lot of Southampton fans and a lot of other people out there. But it wasn't really a lot in it, to be honest. But as I said, if the on-field official had given a foul, I wouldn't have been surprised if I had said, yes, that's a foul. But um if if I had to pick a side, it wasn't too much in it.
00:16:45
Wale Bakare
ah you know, to have been given as a foul and was a good goal at the end of today.
00:16:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I think it's definitely an interesting one. Southampton don't often get a point, but they might have one here. It um is quite difficult to... Basically, it makes corners really difficult to defend. um Whether that's a good or bad thing, I guess, depend is is what determines.
00:17:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
whether you'd see that as a foul or not. um Glassner's press conference was very interesting, his interview post-match, on that topic. um I mean, i i I didn't fully catch everything of what he was saying, because I was distracted by the jump who was wearing, thinking, I'm sure that's my nan's tablecloth. But it was like, he said that they'd had a discussion earlier in the season.
00:17:48
Wale Bakare
The season, yeah.
00:17:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, and they'd said, oh, this is kind of kind of said it's allowed. That kind of jostling is allowed in the Premier League.
00:17:56
Wale Bakare
Whoa.
00:17:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
So he was suggesting it's it is a foul basically ever else in the world, except in England. And that the theory is that's entertainment value. So if you like teams going for corners, I mean, Arsenal do this, right?
00:18:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
This is a big part of the reason. the Arsenal get so many corner goals is the way they are able to put people on the obstruct, the keeper's path, make it difficult for them to come out.
00:18:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
If you like the fact that corners are now a major weapon, then and it's a good rule, I guess, the goal should stand. And if you finish should be a bit harder to score, then maybe it's not a good thing.
00:18:31
Wale Bakare
but
00:18:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
I like corners.
00:18:35
Wale Bakare
and I just wonder because you know with with with situations like this consistency then becomes the problem because ah if if it's that close then you would have situations where you know another referee is given a foul and you're thinking well that wasn't a foul in Crystal Palace against Southampton with you know we've had why We've had cases of borderline calls like that where things haven't been consistent. I think earlier on the season, it was the situations of players kicking the ball away. A couple of us, not players, kicked the ball away, got a second yellow card, got a red card.
00:19:09
Wale Bakare
And then I think happened with Dominik Stovall's lie, although the argument then was Liverpool were trailing and it wouldn't have served them any better to have wasted time. But we've seen cases where someone's come out to say, well, he's just kicked the ball away. If it was a red card in that game, why is it not a red card in this one? so the the issue of consistency will then you know come to play. And then at what point is it too much? Because it was obviously a subjective decision. Glasner, yes, would well you know give a very interesting answer saying we had the discussions at the start of the season. But um I really will say again, I'm not sure that's what he'll be saying if that happened in the Palace box, honestly.
00:19:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm sure it wouldn't I mean I almost got from what he was saying like a sense that he thinks it probably should be a foul but um but bears and ah and they're deliberately using that strategy that they've been told so they can do, which I think you know is absolutely the right thing to do and fair enough. um Just to sort of wrap up the discussion of this match, how important a win is this for Palace? How important is it that they do actually
Significance of the Victory
00:20:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
get three points against Southampton, beat the team who are
00:20:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
kind of emerging quite clearly as as as the weakest team in the league and the one that a lot of others are going to be able to grab three points off. um Yeah, how how vital is that for Palace?
00:20:41
Wale Bakare
Well, the the Premier League is shaping up to be one where every point will be important. It's quite um uncertain what to expect, both at the top of the table and below, except for maybe Southampton were finding themselves further adrift from the park. But um it was a very ah important win ah for Palace. They went six points above Leicester, who for some reason respected Manchester City too much and just thought they couldn't you know get a result. Everyone's beaten City at the moment. I don't know what they were thinking. but um It wasn wasn't an important win for Palace.
00:21:20
Wale Bakare
ah The performance was also crucial. of The fact that the nature of the win was also important. Coming back from a goal down, that's not something we've seen a lot from Palace this season. What we've seen is Palace conceding and scrapping out a draw. But everything yesterday, just at the All-Mac, I mean, just at a win or a comeback, reaching all over, it Palace were creating chances. You mentioned some of the saves by Aaron Ramsdale. you know, gotten a goal. Daniel Munoz, for some reason, ah you know, hit the back of a Southampton player's leg when he was right in front of the goal line, you know. so
00:22:00
Wale Bakare
Palace created enough chances. They seemed like they were always going to get the the result, but we've seen teams play so well and you know unable to come back in a game. So yeah the manner of the win, the fact that they got three points against a team that was bottom of the league, where a team where, you know, virtually everyone's getting all the points they can against at the moment. It's quite sorry a sorry situation for Southampton, but, you know, it was an important result for Palace.
00:22:29
Wale Bakare
they were playing at home. I think Palace lost at home was a Fulham the other day. And that was a result that you know, a lot of Palace faithful did not enjoy watching. Another loss at home would have been catastrophic, especially against Southampton. So it was a great result. 20 points on the board. Another 20 usually would, you know, keep you safe in the league, but Although that is a bit of a cry from what the expectations of Palace fans were at the start of the season. But realistically speaking, survival has to be what is on the top of the mind of Olivier Glaston and the boys. And the result against Southampton was a very, very good one. And to to be honest, I look at Palace and you, when you look at the
00:23:13
Wale Bakare
but teams in the and the actual pilots are not necessarily involved in the ah relegation battle, but when you look at Leicester, maybe not Wolves, because Wolves for some reason creates a lot of chances and the they're they're looking good at the moment particularly, but when you look at Leicester, Everton, Ipswich and Southampton, sometimes the issue is the number of chances they create and ah you just worry about. But for Palace, Palace, even when the results weren't going their way, they've always been able to fashion out a chance. They've always had players that were dangerous. So they've always looked a little bit different class, so to speak, you know, to some of this team. So the some of the results that Palace have gotten this season haven't been entirely deserved because
00:24:01
Wale Bakare
You know, they've played well in some games, and we've only been able to get a draw. They've played well in some games, ah just not been able to so you get over the line. But in the last couple of weeks, they've been grinding our results, and and that one against Southampton was a very critical one for the team.
00:24:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I nothing think you'd bang on there while it's basically going into the second half of the season. That win puts Palace in a position, that as you say, um on 20 points. And I think with that comfortable but comfortable ah gap between them,
00:24:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
and Leicester, they'll be looking up coming in the second half of the season, thinking how high can we get up at the table, not looking down and worrying about how far they can fall. I think it'll be a good confidence booster.
00:24:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
And as you say, the nature of it is a good conference booster because they've found ways, I think they've created chances in kind of three major different ways, which were somewhat a SAR one, direct on the counter attack. Some of the ones that are really intricately worked around the box and then really maximize their threat from set pieces.
00:25:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
three very different ways of scoring goals depending on what the game state is um and a more comfortable position in the league. like Great takeaways for Palace and yeah I think they will now be thinking about ah how much further they can climb.
00:25:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
um And that's that's a good place to yeah good
Corner Kick Quiz Introduction
00:25:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
place to be in the middle of the season, um particularly given how the first seven games went for them.
00:25:37
Wale Bakare
You won't.
00:25:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
So yeah, all quite positive, I'd say. We'll have a little break now for Word for the Network before finishing with a super quick corner quiz.
00:26:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
So yeah, we've been talking about them a lot. I thought it'd be a good time for us to have a quiz about corners. So I've spent half an hour picking some gems out of the Wikipedia page for the Corner Kick, historically. Corner Kick through time. So let's do a, well, let's call it a Corner Kickipedia quiz.
00:26:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
having not had time to make a pun before for the podcast. That's the best you're getting today. Three questions for you, Wale. Two are multiple choice. One isn't.
00:27:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
Do we have a prize? Do we have a prize? My cat is sometimes referred to as as Corners, ah because her full name is Cornflakes, and she's in the room.
00:27:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
So I can bring her to the screen to congratulate you if you get to.
00:27:16
Wale Bakare
I'll take that. i'll take that
00:27:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
Excellent, right. So your first question, Riley, is what is the name for a goal, term
Quiz Participation and Episode Wrap-Up
00:27:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
used to describe a goal scored directly from a corner? Is it A, a spectacular, B, a fantastical, C, a olympico, or D, a wind-assisted fluquio?
00:27:49
Wale Bakare
Is a... is it fantastical?
00:27:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
Is that your answer?
00:27:57
Wale Bakare
Is it? Yeah, that's my answer.
00:28:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
Unfortunately not. It's an olympico.
00:28:02
Wale Bakare
Ah!
00:28:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't know why. I don't know what's particularly olympic about.
00:28:07
Wale Bakare
Football wasn't even originally part of the Olympics.
00:28:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, who knows? Who knows where that came from? But yeah, olympico or sometimes an olympic goal in the English language as well, which I think if you all agree sounds worse.
00:28:19
Wale Bakare
Ah, he loves.
00:28:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Your next question. In the 2002-3 season, Villa conceded a calamitous goal against rivals Birmingham City. Goalkeeper Peter Enkelmann allowed an Olaf Melberg back pass from a throw-in thrown into his own net. Why did Villa manager Graham Taylor argue a corner should have been awarded instead of a goal?
00:28:52
Wale Bakare
Is that a multiple choice one?
00:28:54

No. Olaf Malberg threw the ball back to ankleman, he let it roll into his own net, but Graham Taylor fought a corner, should have been awarded instead of a goal. Why?
00:29:15
Wale Bakare
That's a tough one. I can't remember. I remember the names involved, but I can't remember the game.
00:29:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
yes
00:29:23
Wale Bakare
um I'm just looking for the most common sense reason anyone would think, you know, it should be a con about, you know, not a lot of managers.
00:29:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
have no pra ta
00:29:29
Wale Bakare
Not a lot of managers give common sense reasons.
00:29:34
Wale Bakare
Did you think that ah the ball wasn't it with the leg and
00:29:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
Sort of.
00:29:45
Wale Bakare
Oh.
00:29:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
You're along the right lines there.
00:29:50
Wale Bakare
But that's the best I can do. Did you think the ball wasn't you with the leg and you thought if it wasn't with the legs then the corner kick should have been given instead?
00:29:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
I can, you know what, i' I'll give you that while I, so basically um the, The argument was that Enkelmann, the keeper, didn't touch the ball.
00:30:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
And if you score an own goal directly from any restart in play, like your own corner, your free kick, ah your kick off, whatever it is, or throw in, strangely, it's a corner to the other team, rather than an own goal for, I don't know what reason, but that is the rule, it turns out.
00:30:16
Wale Bakare
Yeah.
00:30:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Graham Taylor, yeah, um the ref on the day, Cumberhoot was, insisted that he believed Engleman had touched the ball.
00:30:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
But Graham Taylor was arguing that he clearly had a ref in other rules.
00:30:51
Wale Bakare
But did but you need to did it hurt the wall?
00:30:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't know. it was I think it's a bit ambiguous whether he actually does touch the ball or not, Engleman.
00:31:00
Wale Bakare
Oh, would have been nice if they had Vada.
00:31:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
He kind of rolls under his foot, so it might kind of clip his studs a bit.
00:31:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
It would have been nice to have that. A bit of an over-the-refs to do the rules, because I think it's been accidentally given a couple of times, that kind of guy.
00:31:13
Wale Bakare
ah
00:31:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
Because it's insane, right? But yeah, fun that fun little weird rule for you there. Last question. So one of the early exponents of the corner kick as a method for restarting the play when the ball behind the goal line and was an anonymous letter writer who proposed the idea to the Sheffield Daily Telegraph What pseudonym did this writer use? Was it A, Rouge, B, Rouge Eble, or C, Marron?
00:31:52
Wale Bakare
That's weak at options, you came all the way. Micron.
00:32:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
Unfortunately, unfortunately, it was just Rouge.
00:32:02
Wale Bakare
Oh.
00:32:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
It was just Rouge, so. A bit like last season, that's last season, and that's 0% on this quiz, I'm afraid.
00:32:10
Wale Bakare
well
00:32:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
it was it I don't know, it's like I gave you the last one. It's 33% on this quiz.
00:32:18
Wale Bakare
Yeah, to be honest, I'm turning out to be Southampton with the squeezes, to be honest.
00:32:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, well, well see if you can break Darby's record for the end of the season.
00:32:34
Wale Bakare
No, I can never be that terrible. but
00:32:39
Wale Bakare
I remember, I always remember Kenny Miller's face every, you know, every game that season, because for some reason he just appeared lost, like, what am I doing here?
00:32:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
It was the same with Robbie Savage that turned up in January
00:32:52
Wale Bakare
Funny thing, they they might have, I think they did, I think they did get a victory against Liverpool that season.
00:32:58
Global Sports Podcast Network
Was that the only one? There's only one win, wasn't there? I can't remember who it was against, but...
00:33:01
Wale Bakare
Or maybe I'm wrong, but I think they did get, I remember they did get a weird result against Liverpool.
00:33:05
