Introduction to the Daily Ipswich Podcast
00:00:05
Richard
Thank
00:00:09
Tom Crack
Hello everybody and welcome back to another edition of the Daily Ipswich here on the Global Sports Podcast Network, the only podcast where you can get your daily Ipswich fix.
Keeping Content Fresh During International Break
00:00:17
Tom Crack
International Break is still trudging along, so we're having to come up new, fresh ideas to keep the podcast entertaining and for you guys to get listen to daily.
00:00:26
Tom Crack
I'm delighted to say on today's episode, we I'm i amm joined by three of the lads. My name is Tom as well. i've been away for a few weeks as well, hence the rustiness on the mic here, guys. I do apologise, but do my best to get back into a swing of things. But on today's episode, I'm bringing a Ipswich Town-themed quiz
Ipswich Town-Themed Quiz Begins
00:00:41
Tom Crack
today.
00:00:41
Tom Crack
We're a bit sprinkling of England football team there as well, considering it's the international break. So I'll be testing the guys on that. think it's a bit strange that me being away for two or three or so weeks, usually in school days, if you're absent, you get given a test. But I'm the one away and I'm now given a test out. How days of school have changed.
00:00:56
Richard
Nice.
00:00:56
Tom Crack
First, yeah, exactly. So before we start, i've got today's proceedings. I'm going to introduce the boys first. So first, up mr Richard Richard Popple. Confident about the quiz, mate.
00:01:04
Richard
Hello.
00:01:05
Tom Crack
I think you won the one we did and earlier in the season. So defending your crown.
00:01:08
Richard
Did I? I forgot about that. Yeah, I'm confident then. tune two nowil Lovely.
00:01:12
Tom Crack
Yeah, exactly. And then next up we got Mr. James Bennett. How are you doing, James?
00:01:15
James
Oh, good. Thank you very much, mate. How are you? I'll
00:01:18
Tom Crack
Yeah, all good. Like I said, been away for a few weeks, so get back and swing things to the pod.
00:01:21
James
be back.
00:01:22
Tom Crack
Avoiding town results, which I guess for a few fans has been a good thing, but we move, we move. And lastly, Mr. Rob Binns. are you doing, Rob?
00:01:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm all good yes I think I'm pretty sure id lost convincingly last time we've done this so at least I can't get any worse sidestep at best just still I'll take that and
00:01:36
James
Yeah.
00:01:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
As long as it keeps civil, because i'm pretty sure we've sworn twice ever on this podcast, and it was both in the last time had quiz think but we hopefully hold it together this time.
00:01:44
Tom Crack
It was. It was, yeah, yeah. i think jane I remember James giving an F-bomb for him being stunned at an answer. So if that pops up again, for good reason. I think the reason you lost last time was like a generational reason, but no excuses this time.
00:01:58
James
I think we we got the same, but it was like a...
00:01:58
Tom Crack
Richard, you going to
00:02:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:02:01
Richard
Well, i think I think I took the Lord's name in vain as well last time, so i won't be doing that this this time.
00:02:06
Tom Crack
Yes, you did. i remember that. Yeah, you did. not Nothing in the swear jar for me and Rob yet. Maybe that'll be different this episode.
00:02:12
Richard
No.
00:02:13
Tom Crack
But yeah, like I said, so obviously everyone listening at home, feel free to take part of this and see how you do.
Diving Deeper into Ipswich Town Trivia
00:02:18
Tom Crack
I'm not sure how it's in terms of what's it out of. I'm offering up a lot of bonus points as I like to do. So in terms of what it's out of,
00:02:24
Tom Crack
I have no idea, there's a lot points so but up for grabs. So just as long as you have your own total, you know if you've won or not. So the first round is on Ipswich Town this season. You know, it's hard to find a few. I find that many positives and all that sort of stuff, but I've managed to spin it that way.
00:02:39
Tom Crack
Got a lot stats-based ones and just...
00:02:41
Richard
Thank you.
00:02:42
Tom Crack
All that sort of stuff. So we'll go through it. We'll go through the answers at the end of each round as well before we cut to the breaks as well, guys. So plenty of time to all of your failings or successes in between those breaks as well. But the first question, like I said, this is a quiz on Ipswich Town in 24-25 in the Premier League.
00:02:57
Tom Crack
First question is how many players in the starting 11 in our opening game against Liverpool were a part of our championship promotion side, if that makes sense.
00:03:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh.
00:03:07
Tom Crack
So... everyone on the pitch in that game, how many of them were part of the championship team? Whether they were a big part or a small part, they were in the squad season before. How many of them were in that team?
00:03:15
Richard
What what the start started the game or came on in the game as well?
00:03:18
Tom Crack
Just got the starting 11. There may have been some others coming on.
00:03:20
Richard
Just starting over.
00:03:22
Tom Crack
I assume there would have been, but just for starting 11. Yeah, yeah, maybe.
00:03:25
Richard
or do i have to write this down? haven't got
00:03:35
Tom Crack
Silence as they're trying to think.
00:03:36
James
Oh.
00:03:36
James
I'll do. shot.
00:03:36
Tom Crack
Are you ready for next question, guys?
00:03:38
Richard
No.
00:03:39
Tom Crack
No. It's a thinker, to be fair. first game of season was against Liverpool. I think it was on TNT, wasn't it? Saturday. It was a lovely day and really, really optimistic out of that game.
00:03:49
James
think
00:03:49
Tom Crack
One of our best performances, I thought, in the first 45 of the season as well, considering either the big amount or small amount of players we have from the Championship side in that starting XI.
00:03:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:03:58
Tom Crack
Can't remember, to honest. Well, I can, but...
00:04:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, so there's one position somewhere.
00:04:03
Tom Crack
James, you're confident? You seem like you're mewling there, have you?
00:04:05
James
No, not confident at all, mate, no.
00:04:08
James
No, no.
00:04:09
James
I'm ready.
00:04:10
Tom Crack
Cast your mind back.
00:04:10
Tom Crack
What was it?
00:04:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
I
00:04:11
Tom Crack
Was it like late August?
00:04:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah think i can i'm going in my head i think I can name 10 out of the 11 in my head, but it's just who that missing player was and were they in were they in the squad.
00:04:19
Tom Crack
Yeah.
00:04:23
Tom Crack
No, going to get the squad up now before I, I can go for it name wise later on.
00:04:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:04:29
Richard
It'd be really interesting because I literally can't remember.
00:04:33
Tom Crack
Okay. Are you ready for the second question guys?
00:04:35
Richard
mate
00:04:35
Tom Crack
we can come back to that one.
00:04:35
Richard
yeah Maybe there's more. maybe there's more
00:04:36
James
Yes.
00:04:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:04:38
Tom Crack
So this one should be a bit easier.
00:04:38
Richard
I'm going to go there.
00:04:40
Tom Crack
Who scored our first goal of the season?
00:04:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, God. Oh, no.
00:04:47
Richard
Oh.
00:04:48
Tom Crack
Yeah. See, our first two games of the season were against quite difficult opponents. I'll name them. It was Liverpool and City.
00:04:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, I just need just to assume we didn't score for about 10 weeks.
00:04:56
Tom Crack
and So it was...
00:04:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
Because we never...
00:05:02
Tom Crack
Now, we found in the back of the net earlier than we may have expected. Question three. A lot of these, you have to obviously, with any have to remember really a fair few things, but lot stat-based ones
Football Lineage and Player Trivia
00:05:11
Tom Crack
here.
00:05:11
Tom Crack
But what has been our longest unbeaten run of the season? So how many games have we gone without a loss this season? Again, try to spin that in a positive way.
00:05:22
Tom Crack
So a draw does count, not just a win. Obviously.
00:05:25
James
but Good job.
00:05:28
Tom Crack
ah
00:05:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't know not high
00:05:32
Tom Crack
So...
00:05:32
Richard
I genuinely can't remember who was in that team.
00:05:33
James
and have that note I'm really not sure.
00:05:36
Tom Crack
Probably...
00:05:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think I don't know that's the one don't know I don't know whether to be confident enough or not because there are names in between for that last position one is part the championship squad and one isn't that's my problem because then whichever way I side on that 50-50 is what number I've got go with I think that's my issue at the moment
00:05:38
Tom Crack
Sorry about
00:05:52
Tom Crack
that.
00:05:58
Tom Crack
Yep. Yeah.
00:06:00
Tom Crack
Are still mewing that question?
00:06:00
Richard
maybe Yeah,
00:06:01
Tom Crack
Wow. I feel like a lot a lot of these are definitely thinkers in terms of and the numbers and the names and all that sort of stuff.
00:06:03
Richard
I am as well.
00:06:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
00:06:10
Tom Crack
I'll go question four now, guys. Are we still... Yeah. Including loans, how many signings across both windows have we made this season?
00:06:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
oh
00:06:22
Richard
we should also We should also say that the listeners can be playing along here, right?
00:06:22
Tom Crack
Again.
00:06:25
Richard
Because otherwise they're just listening to a load of people thinking on a podcast.
00:06:26
Tom Crack
Yeah. Yeah.
00:06:28
Tom Crack
Oh, yeah, course. Yeah, yeah. I'm assuming that would be the case. Yeah, yeah.
00:06:32
Richard
Right, okay, fine.
00:06:33
James
fun.
00:06:34
Tom Crack
Let's try that.
00:06:36
Richard
Sorry, can you repeat can you repeat the question, Tom?
00:06:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
I've done
00:06:37
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah. So it was including loans. How many signings across both windows have we made this season? Plenty.
00:06:44
Richard
Oh my God, yeah.
00:06:45
Tom Crack
think we've got the most signings this season across both windows.
00:06:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
that a lot.
00:06:48
Tom Crack
or right We're definitely up there for for certain. Some been more successful than others. I think it's... Some have been quite unlucky.
00:06:55
Richard
that's an and That's an understatement, I think.
00:06:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm assuming it's just the first thing.
00:06:57
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah.
00:06:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm not i'm sure i'm assuming Boniface in January is not counting on this. He signed for the youth team.
00:07:06
Tom Crack
No.
00:07:06
Richard
Oh, look at that knowledge.
00:07:08
Tom Crack
No, no, no.
00:07:08
Richard
Look at that knowledge.
00:07:08
James
Unreal.
00:07:10
James
Unreal.
00:07:10
Richard
i wouldn't remembered that in a million years.
00:07:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. Mm-hmm.
00:07:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:07:38
Tom Crack
okay
00:07:41
Richard
That's a good question.
00:07:42
Tom Crack
next one Liam DeLapp's father, Rory, is an iconic Barclaysman, but can you name the other current town player whose dad was also a professional footballer? There may be more than one, but this is the one I know for certain.
00:07:54
Tom Crack
With the exception of DeLapp, there is another player in the team whose dad played professional football.
00:07:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
James was quick on that one
00:07:59
James
I'm pretty pretty sure I know that. But I hope so.
00:07:59
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah.
00:08:05
Tom Crack
Hmm, hmm, hmm.
00:08:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
oh god can't even think of squad members now so I've suddenly forgotten everybody who plays for us
00:08:12
Richard
Oh, look at that.
00:08:15
Tom Crack
Yeah, no worthy career for this person's dad. So not as...
00:08:20
Richard
Mmm.
00:08:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, that makes it worse. I was hoping it was be some obscure one who'd only played non-league or something.
00:08:24
Tom Crack
don't
00:08:28
Tom Crack
think it was as iconic as a but the the Mark Dillap had on the prem for our generation maybe, but certainly had a good career it seems, yeah.
00:08:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
right
00:08:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
Marked at that, did you just say?
00:08:37
Tom Crack
So yeah, DeLapp's dad, obviously Rory was a top player, famous that long throw. Another guy on the team for town currently, their dad was also a professional footballer as well.
00:08:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
God.
00:08:48
Tom Crack
Okay, next question. and Another signing so in question is including add-ons, who was our most expensive signing of the season? I've added add-ons because it's it's very very close and it's also even, I think, without add-ons. So I've just added that to be precise and it's technically correct then.
00:09:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
Can have a guess at that one? Because there's only one price I know off the top my head. So I've just got to say that.
00:09:14
Tom Crack
Yeah.
00:09:14
Richard
they that everybody seemed to be the same amount didn't they yeah
00:09:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:09:18
Tom Crack
Yeah, give or take that figure, wasn't it? So, stat question for this season. Liam DeLapp currently sits atop the fouls committed leaderboard. Top of the table table in one regard.
00:09:30
Tom Crack
But how many fouls has he committed so far this season?
00:09:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh God.
00:09:33
Richard
what he's he's top of the tape table of the whole league bloody hell oh
00:09:36
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:09:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:09:38
James
Oh, my
00:09:41
Richard
Does that count? Does that count?
00:09:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, that's fine.
00:09:43
Tom Crack
What was
00:09:43
Richard
not sure if that counts.
00:09:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
I've said that loads.
00:09:47
Tom Crack
i So, Semenyo's below him and then it's Kaiseido. But, you know, it's it's kind of guys predominantly in like... And then you've got like Jarrell Gomez, Will Hughes. So kind of like central midfield players, a lot of them predominantly taking a top.
00:09:59
Richard
I don't know what a number... How many games have there been? 29, right? And how many...
00:10:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:10:05
Richard
Has Dallat played? He's not played every game, has he? Or has he?
00:10:08
James
fire off
00:10:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, had a suspension at one point.
00:10:10
Tom Crack
far Yeah, yeah.
00:10:13
Richard
I don't know. I don't know how you even calculate that. I mean, he is like a red rag, red rag to a bull at times,
Shift to General Football Knowledge
00:10:19
Richard
isn't he? But yeah.
00:10:19
Tom Crack
and against centre-backs especially just absolutely comes in there for dad one yeah was yeah yeah
00:10:24
Richard
Was was it question five that was the dad one?
00:10:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:10:30
Richard
i don't know why I don't know that.
00:10:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
don't know. I'm thinking, I'm wondering.
00:10:35
Richard
I'm literally drawing a blank completely.
00:10:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
That James got it within two seconds is worrying me as well because now that makes me worry.
00:10:37
Richard
Yeah, it's impressive.
00:10:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's like, it's something really obvious I should be getting.
00:10:39
James
I'll be honest, the fact that you haven't, maybe I've got it completely wrong, so now I'm worried.
00:10:44
Tom Crack
yeah
00:10:46
Tom Crack
go yeah we go There we go.
00:10:46
Richard
I do know. i do know.
00:10:49
Tom Crack
Yeah. It's one of those ones where you...
00:10:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, don't say that because I still don't.
00:10:51
Tom Crack
as you and
00:10:54
Richard
sorry Rob.
00:10:55
Tom Crack
So this one, this question... We'll be on eight now. There's four points available on this one.
00:11:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh God.
00:11:02
Tom Crack
So the main question, this one you can get right, the other three are bonus questions. So the first point is, how many games have we worn our pink kit in the Premier League this season?
00:11:11
Tom Crack
And then, bonus point, if you want to try it can you name the teams we wore it against? I've kind of given kind of given the answer way back.
00:11:19
Richard
wow
00:11:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
I've clocked something on there for a start.
00:11:21
Tom Crack
Whoops. Whoops.
00:11:24
James
I suppose it's four, is it, Tom?
00:11:25
Tom Crack
yeah Yeah, yeah. Like I said, numbers aren't my strong suit.
00:11:30
James
I love that.
00:11:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
You tell you've been off for three weeks. You've given you've given us that one away, isn't it?
00:11:34
Tom Crack
That's the only one.
00:11:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
Thank
00:11:36
Tom Crack
That's the only one that doesn't apply, i believe. You know, I'm going to take away that sort of points available that I've written in a lot of this document here, so I don't get this wrong. Okay, question nine. Yeah, figure out how many we play in the game there. Question nine.
00:11:50
Tom Crack
What viral moment between Roy Keane and a Town fan occurred after a 1-1 draw against United at Portland earlier this season?
00:11:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
you. the
00:11:57
Tom Crack
A big talking point post-match with our former manager and a member of Town Faithful.
00:12:06
Tom Crack
Lots of typing, which sounds like everyone knows what this one is by the sound of things.
00:12:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
I remember that one for a start.
00:12:11
Tom Crack
Okie doke. There's 11 questions in this quit in this round, so we'll go to question 10 before we go to the last one. Which two players are
Discussion on Football Songs and England's Matches
00:12:18
Tom Crack
tied for the most Premier League appearances this season for Ipswich? And again, a bonus point, if you can name the amount of appearances they've made.
00:12:25
Tom Crack
Obviously, with the amount games you played this season, you have a good estimate there. But two players in the squad are tied for the most appearances in the Premier League this season for Upswich. Who are they and how many have they made for an actual point?
00:12:38
Tom Crack
This one's a bit more long-winded, and it was quite depressing seeing to be honest. but So last question of round one of the International Break Quiz, 2025, don't know what you want to call this.
00:12:49
Tom Crack
How many players have scored a goal for Upswich this season? That simple. Just give me a number.
00:12:53
James
I'm
00:12:54
Tom Crack
And an extra point if you can name each of them. If you can name them all as well. you get There's a lot of points available here. Or is there? We haven't scored that many. Yeah.
00:13:04
James
currently in high school.
00:13:04
Richard
wait so hold on is it just in the league
00:13:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
every so Everyone who's scored.
00:13:05
Tom Crack
yeah Just in the league. Just in the league. If they've scored a in the league, just think about how... So first first is like, think of a number of how many players.
00:13:13
Richard
just right i think just write down all the players but yeah
00:13:15
Tom Crack
And then, yeah, write down the players.
00:13:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
guess London, I'm writing down as many as I can think of, then putting the players in.
00:13:18
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah, yeah. that That will get you a... That will get you the bonus points if you can name them as well alongside the exact amount of players who

00:13:26
Tom Crack
have scored. If you just get the exact amount... Because it you could get the exact amount right down to names and one of those names could be wrong. Yeah.
00:13:33
Tom Crack
The thing is, I was saying when I was i was setting this this question up here, it's like I can literally remember every single one of his goals because there hasn't been many goals to choose from this season, unfortunately. but Memorable goals, though. There's some that are real quality there, despite the fact a small number.
00:13:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, I'm trying. There's some rogue ones in there, definitely.
00:13:49
Richard
Blimey, yeah.
00:13:54
Tom Crack
Yeah, there is.
00:13:56
James
Is he scored?
00:13:58
James
Good
00:14:00
Richard
I might go with that.
00:14:01
James
question, this mate.
00:14:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:14:04
Tom Crack
Yep.
00:14:04
Richard
might with that.
00:14:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, think, actually, I think that was a cup.
00:14:05
Tom Crack
Let's put a positive note on that. We've scored some goals this season. Let's try to remember who they were. Some brief moments of jubilation.
00:14:10
Richard
I can't remember if anyone else has. Oh, I think he has.
00:14:14
Tom Crack
You can see everyone's faces here, listeners. It's very
Final Quiz Scores and Reflections
00:14:16
Tom Crack
funny. we just They're thinking faces. I've never done one of these quizzes. I've always been the quiz master. and I need to put my money on my office at some point as well.
00:14:24
Richard
you' You're very good at it.
00:14:25
James
Absolutely right,
00:14:25
Richard
You're yourre excellent master.
00:14:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, this is the problem.
00:14:27
Tom Crack
It just reminds you of the...
00:14:28
Tom Crack
on, Rob.
00:14:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
You set a standard to I over this.
00:14:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's the problem. that If one of us has to sub in now, we've got standard to me.
00:14:33
James
yeah.
00:14:37
Tom Crack
Well, did mess up on the amount of pink kit games a few seconds ago, so maybe I'm slipping slightly. But it you know it reminds me of like the Zoom days, isn't it, during COVID when you're these sort of things. and I was always the quiz master in those as well.
00:14:48
Tom Crack
So it just comes naturally to me, I guess.
00:14:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Got another one.
00:14:52
Tom Crack
we Are we all done? Are we ready to go through this round and answers before we go to the first break?
00:14:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think so, yeah.
00:14:58
Tom Crack
We want a question question rephrased or re-asked or anything, Richard, ru James?
00:15:02
Richard
No, I think I'm good.
00:15:03
James
I think I'm up.
00:15:03
Tom Crack
Yeah.
00:15:04
James
Yeah, I think.
00:15:05
Tom Crack
Okie doke. So question one of the first round of the quiz. How many players in the starting XI in our opening game against Liverpool were a part of our championship promotion side? It was nine.
00:15:16
James
I
00:15:16
Tom Crack
Nine players.
00:15:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
Was it?
00:15:18
Tom Crack
Has everyone got nine?
00:15:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
was miles off.
00:15:19
Tom Crack
Has everyone got nine?
00:15:21
James
put seven.
00:15:22
Richard
I put 8. put a
00:15:23
Tom Crack
So the nine I've got here...
00:15:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
was I was between six and seven.
00:15:27
Tom Crack
So but it was Walton in goal because obviously absolute legend Murek was injured. and we were We were stunned, weren't we?
00:15:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
Ohhhh. For
00:15:32
James
Yeah. Rubber beer is rubber.
00:15:33
Tom Crack
And we were like, why why why is Murek playing? And then it was back for Twanzebi, Wolfenden, Greaves, Davis.
00:15:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
God's sake.
00:15:41
Tom Crack
So three of the defence were there.
00:15:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:15:44
Tom Crack
Morsi and Luongo started.
00:15:44
Richard
yeah
00:15:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
Did he?
00:15:48
Tom Crack
that's Burns, Chaplin, Hutchinson, three, and then DeLapp up top. So DeLapp and Greaves are the only two guys in the starting 11 who weren't part of the team the year before
00:15:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
Got miles off it.
00:15:57
Tom Crack
to
00:15:58
Richard
I did think that then i bloody changed it never mind
00:16:00
Tom Crack
Yeah. Off the bench, if you are interested, Richard, the ones from our previous season were Taylor, Al Hamady and Marcus Harness. Obviously got an appearance before he went out on run.
00:16:09
Richard
wow yeah
00:16:10
Tom Crack
He got he got a run in before he went to Derby. So yeah, nine nine of the starting 11.
00:16:13
Richard
It
00:16:14
Tom Crack
I think it was very much like, I think McKenna said before the game was like a reward for the effort they put into. Because Longo, I think, has barely started all season, has he, since then? Yeah. Maybe he should have. Who knows? Question two.
00:16:26
Tom Crack
Who scored our first goal of the season? It was Sammy Schmodix. as but When we took the lead against City for that brief period at Etihad our second game. And it was a big...
00:16:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
There we go. Off the mark. Thanks very much.
00:16:34
Richard
was basically the high point of the season.
00:16:35
James
Yeah. Nice.
00:16:37
Tom Crack
Massive. Do you know what? I know I had that pink kit question, but I think that away kit is awful. I know it's like a faux Barcelona top. not big fan. don't know how you guys think of it, but I haven't won that much this season.
00:16:49
Tom Crack
and Good riddance next season, my opinion. Apart from the people worked hard designing it. Fair play to them. Question three. and Just one one point up for grabs here. but What has been our longest run without a loss this season? It was four games and they were all draws.
00:17:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh. Mm-hmm.
00:17:04
Richard
Yeah.
00:17:05
Tom Crack
So it was against Fulham, 0-0 against Brighton, 1-1 against Southampton, then 2-2 against Villa.
00:17:05
Richard
Oh.
00:17:10
Tom Crack
That was a great little run. And then it went a bit funny after that.
00:17:13
James
Yeah.
00:17:14
James
Yeah.
00:17:15
Tom Crack
Four good points as well. And then that Villa performance was really good. Obviously Southampton, late winner. Equalised, but felt like a winner, didn't it, considering the part the game. That Fulham goal was like, to collapse like big arrival. Then Müric is like, only really good game.
00:17:29
Tom Crack
Like, memorable game, I should say. For a positive reason, anyway. that clean sheet at the Amex as well. Did everyone get that right?
00:17:36
James
yeah
00:17:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
Nope.
00:17:38
Richard
yet.
00:17:38
Tom Crack
but What did you get wrong?
00:17:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah thought I completely forgot about that run i was I was thinking Chelsea, Fulham December.
00:17:45
Tom Crack
Yeah. Yeah.
00:17:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's probably another one i forgot, so I'll go through. it
00:17:50
Tom Crack
Yeah, that was almost, could have been something, but only two there. So, onto a signing question. So, including loans, how many signings across both windows have we made? 16.
00:17:59
Tom Crack
I'm not going to read all out, but 16.
00:18:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
15th.
00:18:03
Tom Crack
Everyone's very close there.
00:18:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
fifteen
00:18:04
Tom Crack
What put?
00:18:05
Richard
up at fifteen
00:18:06
James
Yeah, yeah.
00:18:06
Tom Crack
James?
00:18:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
should
00:18:07
Tom Crack
Everyone put 15. Oh, wow.
00:18:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
I shouldn't have asked my Bonnie first question.
00:18:10
Tom Crack
I can read them out if you want
00:18:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
But if hadn't asked my Bonnie first question, I'd have just guessed 16 and hoped he counted.
00:18:17
Tom Crack
Yeah, I wouldn't have questioned it, to before to be honest.
00:18:19
Richard
Yeah, read them out. Read them out. We'll grade them.
00:18:20
James
yeah
00:18:21
Tom Crack
Okay. so we did We did that at the start of the season, didn't we? So, again, count on your hand here.
00:18:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:18:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:18:25
Richard
Yeah.
00:18:26
Tom Crack
If I'm wrong here, but again, my maths is not my strong suit, but so we've got Philogene, Hutchinson, Greaves, DeLapp, Jack Clark, O'Shea, Schmoddix, Muric, Ogbene, Alex Palmer, Kiyuste, Townsend, Ben Johnson, Calvin Phillips,
00:18:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:18:45
Tom Crack
And see so in Godfrey, is that 16?
00:18:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:18:49
Tom Crack
Yeah, there you go.
00:18:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
I've forgotten that.
00:18:49
Tom Crack
Yeah.
00:18:49
Richard
Thank
00:18:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
I was going through in my head. I forgot that Hutchinson signed on a permanent. I was thinking that because he was here last year.
00:18:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
I forgot. That's the one that threw me.
00:18:55
Tom Crack
Yeah, it's the anomaly, isn't it?
00:18:58
James
forgot
00:19:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. Yeah.
00:19:01
Tom Crack
got Jack Clark. Well, he's had a few good games in 2025, so hopefully you won't forget him coming out of next year.
00:19:01
James
yeah
00:19:07
Tom Crack
Question five. James, I'll let you answer this one because you're most confident at start of it. So, like I said, everyone knows Liam DeLapp's dad, Rory, but there's another guy in the town current town squad whose dad was also a player.
00:19:17
Tom Crack
James, who was that?
00:19:19
James
George S, his dad was David S, right?
00:19:22
Tom Crack
It was, still is David Hurst.
00:19:23
James
Well, still is, yeah.
00:19:25
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:19:25
James
Jeff, when is he?
00:19:26
Tom Crack
Played. Played for Sheffield Wednesday predominantly, in the mid to late 80s. And then it was their 86 to 97. 294 appearances, 106 goals for Sheffield Wednesday. Good Nick.
00:19:38
Tom Crack
Free caps for England as well. We'll have an England section of the quiz in the next part of the show. So, you know, little England career. So not too bad of a career for David Hurst there as well. But yeah.
00:19:48
Richard
Rob, once again, your youth was betraying you there.
00:19:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah I just I just guess Ben I just i tried to think somebody i I know nothing about so just guess Ben Johnson
00:19:59
Tom Crack
Again, maybe there is someone else in the team, maybe his dad did play, but I'm not aware of. This one I can't... Oh, no. So, how many fouls has delapsed? Oh, no, Whitmer on the most expensive signing.
00:20:09
Tom Crack
So, including add-ons, who was the most expensive signing.
00:20:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:20:11
Tom Crack
So, Philogene and Hutchinson would both cost 20 mil, but the add-ons for Philogene was 3 mil. Hutchinson was 2.5, so it's Jaden Philogene, most expensive signing of the season.
00:20:19
James
way.
00:20:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
Get it.
00:20:22
Tom Crack
Yeah. James?
00:20:23
James
I went the other way.
00:20:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's only one can tell you the price on.
00:20:24
James
I went the other way.
00:20:25
Tom Crack
mean, Hutchinson?
00:20:25
James
I went the other
00:20:26
Tom Crack
Yeah.
00:20:27
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah, 23 mil plus out on 22.5.
00:20:30
Richard
So what's the add-ons if we stay in the Premier League?
00:20:31
Tom Crack
I
00:20:34
Tom Crack
assume so. i'm I'm not sure. I haven't actually checked. Goals. He got two goals against United, so, you know, he's getting So next one, how how many fouls has Liam Dillap committed this season?
00:20:39
James
way.
00:20:41
Richard
Oh, God. We better not be giving out three million for two goals. Well, yeah. That's a low bar.
00:20:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
I
00:20:52
Tom Crack
It's 60. 60.
00:20:54
Richard
but I had no idea. I put 115.
00:20:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
just pressed 87 I tried.
00:20:58
Richard
was like, I've no idea how to like, think about that.
00:20:58
Tom Crack
No, not that many.
00:21:01
Richard
Like,
00:21:03
James
I put 61.
00:21:04
James
Thank you very
00:21:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
Don't give him a poll for that.
00:21:06
Richard
oh wow.
00:21:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
you never a not
00:21:06
Richard
i was sixty one 61.
00:21:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
but
00:21:09
Tom Crack
No, not that many, but
00:21:09
Richard
Give him a point. Give him a point for that. 61 impressive.
00:21:11
James
much. Cheers.
00:21:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
so give a poll for that
00:21:13
Tom Crack
he's only slightly ahead. you Yeah, yeah, 61. Get a point for that, yeah.
00:21:17
James
thank you very much chair
00:21:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah that
00:21:18
Tom Crack
you know but exactly He's only ahead by one. Semenya is on 59. So, yeah, he's still sitting at the top the league, so hopefully he can defend his title.
00:21:28
Richard
Wow.
00:21:29
Tom Crack
And then we've got question eight, which again, like I think I gave away this answer, but how many games have we worn our pink in the Premier League this season? It was three because I said four points available.
00:21:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
is
00:21:37
James
and
00:21:39
Richard
Oh, I didn't hear that, so I got that wrong. No mind.
00:21:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
and they
00:21:43
Tom Crack
Rob, can you can you name the three teams we played against in that kit?
00:21:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
Spurs and Palace, definitely. then Was it Brentford, the other one?
00:21:51
Tom Crack
Yeah, Spurs first win, Palace. It was Fulham away. and mean, we got that draw, we nearly almost won, and we got that late, we can see late equaliser.
00:22:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, Fulham. Oh, yeah.
00:22:05
Tom Crack
We didn't win Schmonek score. It was at the Cottage. weve We've only worn that kit away. So Spurs away, then Fulham at the turn of the year, two-all draw there.
00:22:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:22:15
Tom Crack
And then, yeah, the loss at Palace quite recently, who wore again. Yeah.
00:22:18
Richard
have Have we always been wearing the other away kit then? Because I haven't really... it feels like i haven't really seen many games with others in that kit.
00:22:23
James
Yeah. Yeah.
00:22:25
Richard
Or have we been wearing the home kit away sometimes?
00:22:27
Tom Crack
Predominantly the home, I think. you know like amber who would Who would we wear that that that sort of darkish kit against?
00:22:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:22:29
James
Okay, we are.
00:22:34
Richard
Yeah, but you're right. Because Arsenal, Man U, Liverpool, you'd wear the blue one, wouldn't you?
00:22:38
Tom Crack
Yeah, Chelsea away in a few weeks, I imagine, wear the pink one because that you know it's a bit of a darker shade, the other one.
00:22:39
Richard
So, yeah.
00:22:41
James
yeah
00:22:44
Tom Crack
It's a good speculation to have on the pod. It's not speculating scorelines. What kit are we going to wear? It's the most important thing.
00:22:47
James
cant
00:22:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
You think about it as well though, like the tip the the standout teams in blue. We haven't been to yet. chel Chelsea Everton comes to mind straight away.
00:22:55
Tom Crack
Yeah.
00:22:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
Leicester as well. the all these All these teams away in blue, we haven't been to yet, coincidentally.
00:22:57
Tom Crack
Yeah.
00:23:01
Tom Crack
Yeah. Yeah. Well, City, we wore that, like I said, that but purplish, darkish kit at start season. I can't really think of many any other games, to honest. know we wore it against Wimbledon in the League Cup.
00:23:08
Richard
No, I can't.
00:23:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
Brighton, we must have done. They're blue and white.
00:23:12
Tom Crack
Yes. Yes, we did. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, we did. So, yeah, what viral moment took place Roy Keane and the Town Fan? It was like that sort of confrontation, meet me in the car park type thing on Sky.
00:23:23
Tom Crack
I'm sure we all got one.
00:23:23
Richard
Car park.
00:23:24
James
Nice.
00:23:26
Tom Crack
Next question. Which two players are tied for the most Premier League appearance this season? It was Liam Dillap and Leif Davis. LD.
00:23:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, David, of course it was.
00:23:33
Tom Crack
And the number, as as you said, Rich, we've played 29 games this season. They've both made 28 appearances, including on and off the bench.
00:23:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
Get in.
00:23:40
Richard
Oh, wow.
00:23:42
Tom Crack
So I think the suspension, and i think Davis had a little knock, didn't he, one game? it the Villa game he didn't play, which Townsend put a brilliant shift in. in that one. But 28 each, Dillap and Davis. So this one, again, the long one.
00:23:53
Tom Crack
So how many players have scored a goal for town this season? you me to name them all? And then I'll save up the amount and then i'll name them all. Or does someone feel confident?
00:24:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, give us the amount first and if we've got any hope.
00:24:04
Tom Crack
Yeah, so the amount is 11. 11. Yeah, 11.
00:24:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
Get in.
00:24:07
Richard
Yes!
00:24:08
Tom Crack
oh So... eight eleven yeah eleven
00:24:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
My logic there was I can name 10 and I've definitely forgot one.
00:24:12
Tom Crack
so
00:24:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
So just chuck one extra on top.
00:24:18
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah. do you want to Rob, do you want to run through them? Are you confident in that?
00:24:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I've got my 10 written down. I've got Dallac Hutchinson, Chaplin Hurst,
00:24:27
Tom Crack
Yeah. yep
00:24:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
Morsy, Davis, Greaves, Philistine, Coyuste and Taylor.
00:24:31
Tom Crack
Yeah. Yeah.
00:24:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
Then I've missed one.
00:24:38
Tom Crack
Yeah, the one you've missed was, did you say Q-Stay? Yeah.
00:24:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:24:45
Tom Crack
Who did you miss out there, guys? I mean, did you miss out Chaplin? Who
00:24:48
James
When I set you up...
00:24:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, I've got Chaplin.
00:24:51
Tom Crack
did you miss out?
00:24:51
Richard
No, he said them all, didn't he
00:24:54
Tom Crack
Did you say all 11 there?
00:24:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, I've got... I've only got 10 written down, i think.
00:24:58
Tom Crack
um i'll read out I'll read out what I've got here, guys. So, yeah.
00:25:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah No, I'll stop you there.
00:25:00
Tom Crack
Delap, Schmodix, Hutchinson, Villagin, Hurst, Chaplin, KU3.
00:25:00
Richard
he? Schmodix.
00:25:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
I forgot Schmodix. The second top scorer I forgot.
00:25:08
Tom Crack
Yeah, there you go. Yeah, there go.
00:25:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
There you go.
00:25:11
Tom Crack
Yeah.
00:25:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
Still got it.
00:25:13
Tom Crack
It's about, yeah, 11 players.
00:25:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
I knew I'd forget one. That's why I went 11, not 10, because i knew there was one I didn't get at least.
00:25:20
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah. So a very, very few goals as well. After the lap's 10, it goes to Schmodek's 4, then it's just 3-2 a few ones here and there. But some memorable goals.
00:25:27
James
Yeah.
00:25:27
Tom Crack
I mean, obviously it wasn't a good result recently, but Q-Stay's goal was an absolute cracker at home recently, wasn't it? Against Forest.
00:25:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:25:34
Tom Crack
Yeah, that was the end of the town part the quiz. Long old show this, guys. We're nearly half an hour, just the first round. But there you go. How did everyone do there, numbers-wise?
00:25:44
Richard
well what do you get for you don't get a bonus point per goal scorer do you you wow
00:25:48
Tom Crack
Oh, yes, you do. Yes, you do. I'm giving im i'm giving out loads.
00:25:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Blue, you know.
00:25:50
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:25:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
Get in there.
00:25:52
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah. Why not? because Because you can name stab a random number, but you may not get the actual player name, you know, given how few goals you've scored this season. I think it's on merit if you can name the exact amount.
00:26:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
That has pulled me right back in it.
00:26:03
Tom Crack
There you go yeah. Well, the thing is, i was going to say that one, there's 22 points available, but then that will give away, obviously, how many goals scores have been.
00:26:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, it would
00:26:09
Tom Crack
So I didn't want to say that.
00:26:11
Richard
Oh, but it's only one per, it's not two per but score, is it?
00:26:16
Tom Crack
So you get one point for naming the amounts at 11, then you get extra point individually, so 22 points.
00:26:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah would have been all around.
00:26:20
Richard
Sorry, yeah. 15, I got
00:26:23
Tom Crack
Nice. We're in just that one.
00:26:25
Richard
the whole round. No, no, no, ha the whole round.
00:26:26
Tom Crack
Oh, the whole round. right How? Did you not name any goal scorers then?
00:26:33
Richard
No, I got quite a few at the goal scorers.
00:26:35
Tom Crack
Oh, just...
00:26:35
Richard
I got called thought like quite a lot of questions wrong.
00:26:36
Tom Crack
Oh, right, I see. didn't expect you to, Richard. Oh, okay. I forgot about that part.
00:26:41
James
I just didn't get them right mate, I'm sorry.
00:26:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
Failed at the first hurdle, that was the issue.
00:26:45
Tom Crack
How are you doing in it, James? what What did you get?
00:26:48
James
One, two, twenty.
00:26:50
Tom Crack
20. Not too bad.
00:26:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
I was on eight before the last question, so I'm now on 19. My 10 goalscorer isn't my correct answer.
00:26:58
Tom Crack
Oh, very good. Oh, so it's close then.
00:27:01
Richard
well
00:27:02
Tom Crack
15, 19, 20. we're going to take our first break now. When we come back, like say, it's international break right now. So it's an England-themed quiz, but with few town England-tailored questions in there as well. So we'll see you guys in a sec.
00:27:24
Tom Crack
Thank you.
00:28:16
Tom Crack
And we are back here on the Daily at Switch. It is the Daily Switch quiz during the international break. We had the Town Fiend round just now, which I was going to say separate men from the boys, but everyone kind of got a similar score there, to be fair. So playing it for grabs as we go into the final round here.
00:28:32
Tom Crack
This one, like I said, is an England-themed one. because With it being an international break, we're kind of focusing on the national team a bit here as well.
00:28:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
Thank you.
00:28:38
Tom Crack
Joggy memory back. Obviously, few or many many depressing games as as an England fan over the years. few happy memories in recent years, but not getting over the line. So hopefully... new boss coming in can do that but we can look back at some England memories here and see how you guys do as i said there's some town centred flavoured England questions as well so try and wrap your right head around those end as well but question one start quite easy I think who was the all time top goal scorer for England no no bonus point for the amount actually yeah go on yeah yeah why not
00:29:12
Richard
By the way, I miss I miscounted.
00:29:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
One
00:29:14
Richard
I've got 16.
00:29:15
Tom Crack
oh even better
00:29:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
they won and lost in the bonus points this quiz.
00:29:19
Richard
Brings me back a little.
00:29:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
Absolutely.
00:29:23
Tom Crack
Yeah, exactly.
00:29:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't have to get the answers. I can guess the answers. This is then just trying to name bonus points and I've got half the chance.
00:29:31
Tom Crack
It's like goal difference.
00:29:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hmm. Hmm.
00:29:34
Tom Crack
Okey-doke. So question two, actually so quite an easy one there. How many, the bonus points, I've grabbed this one actually. How many foreign England managers have there been? And you can actually point each if you name them all as well.
00:29:46
Tom Crack
Obviously, I think it's pretty obvious we've got one now, which i don't think that's giving anything away. Looks fantastic in his interviews already too. So i know we have not a great chance to speak about now, but mentality-wise, it seems to be very, very good, I think.
00:30:02
Tom Crack
I was trying to think, who was that?
00:30:06
Richard
Big Roy, big Roy Hodgson. He was holding on for far too long, wasn't he?
00:30:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm-hmm.
00:30:11
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah. Nice bloke, but not the best teams and just kind of, yeah, yeah.
00:30:14
Richard
Yeah, nice bloke, yeah.
00:30:15
James
nice fellow yeah
00:30:19
Tom Crack
but Before we move on, I'll be able to talk about it quickly. but do Do you guys like Tuchel? His brief interviews we've seen so far, I think he looks like level-headed, doesn't he?
00:30:25
James
Absolutely.
00:30:25
Richard
Yeah?
00:30:26
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah. Looking at it as a club rather than like some sort of patriotic sort of job, which seems to always be, you're not English, I guess it maybe it seems a bit easier.
00:30:30
James
Yeah.
00:30:34
Tom Crack
But we've had X amount of foreign managers before him, and that didn't work, did it? So hopefully this can be the difference this time.
00:30:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, he comes across well.
00:30:41
Tom Crack
So question three.
00:30:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
if
00:30:43
Tom Crack
Yeah, very much so. Very much so. Question three, there's an Ipswich sort of...
00:30:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
The game is quite boring.
00:30:48
Tom Crack
question it. Yeah, well, when it's not the Euros of the World Cup, it it tends to be, doesn't it? Question three, Portman Road hosted an England game in 2003 when Wembley was getting rebuilt.
00:30:58
Tom Crack
kind of in The England team did a tour around the country.
00:30:59
Richard
in I'm going big.
00:31:00
Tom Crack
I think I went to this game, actually. But who did we play?
00:31:04
Tom Crack
Yeah, it wasn't going to be like, what year?
00:31:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
Cool, I remember.
00:31:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
so I remember this game when I was one years old.
00:31:09
James
Oh, God. That's not
00:31:14
Tom Crack
I think I went to this. I remember it being on the telly. Like, seeing that Portnob going to be on the telly. But, yeah. It's just weird to see certain players playing there.
00:31:24
James
i said so
00:31:25
Tom Crack
I mean, you've got a small window. Because I think the new Embley opened, what, 2007, wasn't it?
00:31:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
did I don't know.
00:31:33
Richard
like
00:31:34
Tom Crack
And I think near the end of the century is when it closed, I believe.
00:31:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
think that's probably, don't know.
00:31:40
Tom Crack
So you've got like a 1-8 chance there, Rob.
00:31:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
Do I?
00:31:44
Tom Crack
Not awful odds. Well, yeah, it was a turn of a century when it closed and 2007 Wembley reopened, so...
00:31:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
Who are we playing against?
00:31:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
I thought I was naming the team, wasn't
00:31:53
Richard
But we're going for who that's playing, right?
00:31:55
Tom Crack
Oh, yeah, whoops. Sorry, sorry.
00:31:57
James
uh
00:31:58
Tom Crack
I'm all over the place here. Guys, I'm telling I've lost my touch.
00:31:59
Richard
I think what...
00:32:02
James
it
00:32:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
I? I can tell you what the year is.
00:32:02
Tom Crack
I've lost my touch. It was 2003, wasn't it? Who they play?
00:32:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
The year was 2003, you told that, so.
00:32:06
Tom Crack
No, no, no, no, no. Sorry, sorry, sorry.
00:32:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'll have a bullet for 2013.
00:32:09
Tom Crack
No, it was... I'm trying to think what clues without giving it away. Because, yeah, it's quite an open question, that.
00:32:17
Richard
i've gone I've gone massive, fully aware that there's no way the FA would have put this nation in Ipswich for for a game.
00:32:23
Tom Crack
Yeah. It's a European nation, but it's also like...
00:32:27
Richard
Oh, really? Okay, fine. I'm way off then.
00:32:29
Tom Crack
It's it's not not Brazil or Argentina. you're Yeah, you your your European rival.
00:32:32
Richard
I went Brazil.
00:32:36
Tom Crack
you know i gay It's a European side, but not like one of the big boys. so It's not like your France, your Germany. so
00:32:41
Richard
Okay.
00:32:42
Tom Crack
But you know it's not your San Marinos or Andorras. like It's a competent side.
00:32:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, I'll cross my line out there.
00:32:47
Richard
Nice.
00:32:48
Tom Crack
i think I think that's enough. Okay. To the nearest million, how many people in the UK watched the England v Spain Euro final last year?
00:32:56
James
Jesus.
00:32:58
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, no idea.
00:32:58
Tom Crack
I assume we're all part of that.
00:33:01
James
Unfortunately.
00:33:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, unfortunately.
00:33:02
Tom Crack
I honestly don't remember the last 10 minutes. I was just like, just accepting it wasn't going to happen. was like, yeah, we're done.
00:33:09
Richard
I don't remember the game in in general.
00:33:10
James
so
00:33:11
Richard
It was just...
00:33:11
Tom Crack
No, it was a blur to be honest, wasn't it? Yeah.
00:33:13
Richard
Yeah.
00:33:14
Tom Crack
Were you working that, James? Obviously with your...
00:33:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
Okay. Okay.
00:33:17
Tom Crack
You know, in a bar there, or are you...
00:33:18
James
I was off. I was all right for that.
00:33:21
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah. Oh, until you saw the game.
00:33:21
James
but Well, yeah. Yeah. yeah And that itself was terrible.
00:33:27
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:33:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
see
00:33:29
James
To the closest million.
00:33:29
Tom Crack
Well...
00:33:31
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah. I think it was... I think the semi-final was the most viewed sporting event last year. It wasn't the final. they The semi actually got more viewers, I think.
00:33:43
Tom Crack
But this was the most... Obviously, you just won't remember this one because it's the final, isn't it?
00:33:46
Richard
Who did England play in the semi? I can't even remember. but
00:33:48
James
Colin.
00:33:49
Tom Crack
Netherlands.
00:33:49
Tom Crack
Is that Oli Watkins' goal at the end?
00:33:52
Richard
yes.
00:33:53
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah. I did a knee slide across my living room and then I like bruised my knee after that.
00:34:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah was away I was away in Spain at the time, so like I'd watched the Spain semi-final the night before.
00:34:03
Tom Crack
Oh, wow. You in Spain for the final?
00:34:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'd come home by then, luckily.
00:34:06
Tom Crack
Oh, nice.
00:34:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
that So I'd watched the Spain semi-final in a bar, everybody getting excited that Spain are in the final.
00:34:09
James
Okay.
00:34:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
on Then the next day I watched England make the final and then there wasn't as much excitement there. Everybody was sort of not as good as atmosphere the night before.
00:34:23
Tom Crack
No. Seeing Yemal score that goal against France and much loads amongst loads of Spanish people must have been good though. Wow, what a goal that was.
00:34:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
I was i hoping they went out.
00:34:32
Tom Crack
Anywho.
00:34:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
I thought we'd beat France.
00:34:35
Tom Crack
Yeah. Question five. and This is like, again, similar to the how many foreign managers, but how many England managers have there been, including caretakers, how many England managers have there been this century?
00:34:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
Centrion.
00:34:48
Tom Crack
Again, there's a lot.
00:34:48
Richard
This
00:34:49
Tom Crack
And if you can name them, again, similar to some of ones, if you can name them all, you get a bonus point for each one. Bonus points galore here. So there's a fair few I'm sure you guys can name.
00:34:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
We're going to be here all day. These bonus points.
00:35:00
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah.
00:35:00
Richard
this is good. I love it.
00:35:03
Tom Crack
Noteworthy managers before the 21st century.
00:35:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
Right.
00:35:04
Tom Crack
Obviously, you've got Ipswich alumni and Alph Ramsey and Bob Robson. I think they're the two greatest single managers of all time.
00:35:12
Tom Crack
And then trying think who else would have been. Graham Taylor took over at some point as well. Big, big names. Big English manager names. Seems be lucky English managers these days. Hence, wasn't appointed one recently.
00:35:26
Richard
Oh, I thought you were getting on your Daily Mail soapbox about how there's no...
00:35:30
Tom Crack
No, absolutely not.
00:35:31
Richard
but No... No... No
00:35:35
Tom Crack
Absolutely not. Big fan of Tushel.
00:35:36
Richard
yeah i i yeah
00:35:39
Tom Crack
So, yeah, point for the number for the amount, like said, including caretakers. And then...
00:35:43
Richard
oh including tech caretakers
00:35:46
Tom Crack
Caretakers, yeah.
00:35:47
Richard
kke it's it's a mouthful
00:35:48
James
What? right
00:35:50
Tom Crack
And then if you can name them all as well. You don't get a bonus, but you have to get yeah if you if you name give get...
00:35:54
Tom Crack
You can get a point for each one you name as well, but obviously the main question is like...
00:35:58
Richard
There's been loads of caretakers, haven't there?
00:36:00
Tom Crack
Two. Whoops. Yeah.
00:36:03
Richard
Actually, yeah. Interesting.
00:36:07
Tom Crack
it's It's not been that. There's been some short stints, but only two caretakers.
00:36:10
Richard
i was going to say one of them you could call a caretaker.
00:36:13
Tom Crack
Yeah, exactly.
00:36:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I'm watching.
00:36:13
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah.
00:36:17
Tom Crack
James, are you all right with this one?
00:36:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
How many of you?
00:36:19
James
We'll find out, mate. I'm really not sure.
00:36:21
Tom Crack
stuff
00:36:23
James
It's tough one, I think.
00:36:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
I've got all the ones I can name, it's now how many of them forgot for the main number.
00:36:23
Tom Crack
This one, the next one you should. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Am I right me over to the next question, guys?
00:36:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:36:34
James
Yeah.
00:36:34
Tom Crack
Yep. So this one should be quite easy. Who scored the opener for England on Friday night in what was Thomas Tuchel's first game in charge of England? So who scored the goal? Quite easy there.
00:36:44
Richard
The future.
00:36:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
There we go.
00:36:46
Tom Crack
Yep. See you later, Luke Shaw.
00:36:49
James
Hmm.
00:36:50
Richard
Yeah. See you later, Kieran Trippier at left-back. Thank you.
00:36:54
Tom Crack
Well, if you saw against Liverpool, you can handle it.
00:36:55
Richard
for For a whole tournament. I mean, unbelievable.
00:36:58
Tom Crack
I know, yeah.
00:36:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hmm. Hmm. Hmm.
00:37:00
Tom Crack
Well, he can handle as best as it right back, it seems, still against Liverpool, that's for sure, but
00:37:03
Richard
Leave him at right-back. He is a right-back.
00:37:05
James
Thank you, Sean.
00:37:05
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:37:06
Richard
Don't put him at left-back. It's absolutely maddening.
00:37:07
Tom Crack
yeah Thank you, Dave. What was, and the question seven, what was the score in England's World Cup final win over Germany in 1966? We keep going on about it.
00:37:19
Tom Crack
It's the only thing we have to celebrate. Apart from the, I think they won, Shearer and Atlock won the Milk Cup in the 90s, but obviously not not as big.
00:37:21
James
kids know
00:37:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
oh I want to have myself on that.
00:37:29
Tom Crack
That was genuinely a thing. Do you remember do you remember that, Richard? The Milk Cup?
00:37:33
Richard
The Milk Cup, isn't that a...
00:37:34
Tom Crack
Wasn't that a thing?
00:37:37
Richard
don't know. It's before my time, I think, of Milk Cups.
00:37:38
Tom Crack
Actually, I think I got the trophy wrong.
00:37:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
The club drive you aren at the milk cup.
00:37:39
Richard
but Le Tournois they won in the 90s, which was like between Brazil, France, England and someone else, I think.
00:37:42
Tom Crack
That was it. That was it. Yeah, sorry.
00:37:44
James
I'll clip them on it.
00:37:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:37:49
Tom Crack
The 1997 Tournoir.
00:37:49
Richard
I mean, yeah, it was I don't know, a pre-season cup that clubs run, you know, that kind of vibe.
00:37:51
Tom Crack
So it was...
00:37:57
Tom Crack
Yeah. So it was us, France, Italy and Brazil.
00:38:03
Richard
say
00:38:05
Tom Crack
And we won it. So there you go yeah Add that to the trophy cabinet.
00:38:10
Tom Crack
Which, who did we beat in the in the final? if I can't even see that. Oh, we beat Brazil? Or was it a table? It was a table. Oh, that's ridiculous. It wasn't even a final. It was just, it was like the Six Nations.
00:38:22
Richard
wasn't even a tournament.
00:38:23
Tom Crack
Yeah. So we, yeah. Weird one. We lost to Brazil, but still won the tournament. How does that work? Anywho. Okay, like, question... Where are we? Eight.
00:38:35
Tom Crack
This is a fun one. of this they They're either far a few far few in between these days, they're just not as popular, but can you name me three England-slash-World Cup-slash-Euro songs? You know, like, we have, a song.
00:38:47
Tom Crack
There's some really big ones.
00:38:51
Tom Crack
but Yeah, can you name any of them? Oh, I'll name three of them, please. They may not be on the list. If it's not list, I apologise, but...
00:38:57
Richard
Ever that England have ever had.
00:39:00
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah. There's some obviously some bangers that come every year. But and in recent years, like the one for Qatar, I have never heard of. And the same for the Euros.
00:39:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
There was one for guitar, wasn't there? I thought we hadn't had add one for about 10 years.
00:39:11
Tom Crack
Yeah, I
00:39:13
Tom Crack
Well, actually, just seeing it now, I've just realised it's quite a lazy one. But to I don't think we had one for the Euros last year. If we did, I don't remember it. But yeah, if you just name three of them, there's obviously some classics.
00:39:24
Tom Crack
Let me know your favourites when we give you answers out as well. Question nine, penultimate question of the England round. Who is the most capped England player of all time? And not nearest to, but if you get the exact number, you definitely get a bonus point there.
00:39:38
Richard
Who's the most England cap who's the most captain player?
00:39:41
Tom Crack
yeahp Yeah, Yeah, making the international break fun here.
00:39:45
James
I think I know that. I think.
00:39:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
think I know
00:39:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
that. So this is going to come down to those manager bonus points, I think. Whoever's going to rattle off the most managers is
00:39:57
Tom Crack
Yeah.
00:40:00
Tom Crack
ah ah keok And the final round, which is quite similar, I think, to many of these other rounds that the golf scram one. So Ipswich focus one again, guys. So first is how many Ipswich players have played for England?
00:40:12
Tom Crack
So think of a number, put that in.
00:40:15

00:40:43
Tom Crack
the name and The names, like there's there's some big names here.
00:40:47
Richard
But they're all from back in the day, aren't they, for the most part?
00:40:49
Tom Crack
Yeah, as as you guys said in the recent podcast, we were hoping that that could have been our first England call-up since...
00:40:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Pretty much, yeah.
00:40:56
Tom Crack
player list on this name. um this name Player a name on this list, I should say.
00:40:58
Richard
Yes.
00:41:03
Tom Crack
But yeah, that's that's the last one.
00:41:03
Richard
i mean
00:41:04
Tom Crack
Again, I'm not sure how many... service Okay.
00:41:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
That'll do. ain't getting any more than that. i don't even know if they're all right.
00:41:12
Tom Crack
Some big names here. like even if Obviously, I've been going to put back a bit, but there's some names here we should all know. That's for sure. it's in listen At least four or five.
00:41:24
Tom Crack
We should all get here, I think.
00:41:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
if they're all right.
00:41:26
Tom Crack
There you Even better. Even better.
00:41:30
Global Sports Podcast Network

Tom Crack
Right. Okay.
00:41:30
Global Sports Podcast Network

00:41:31
Tom Crack
So we'll we'll go go through that. Go through the this round and we'll turn up the scores and who has won the ITFC England international break quiz bonanza 2025. What do you want to call it?
00:41:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think you've killed me on that last question. I actually think I was doing all right to that last question. I think you've killed me there.
00:41:46
Tom Crack
Well, you are leading, so maybe that that will that will help.
00:41:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, no, wasn't.
00:41:48
James
no I wrote
00:41:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
james James has beaten me by one.
00:41:51
Tom Crack
Okey-doke. Okay.
00:41:54
Tom Crack
So question one, I think we've all got this. Who is the all-time top goal scorer for England? is, of course, Harry Kane. Did you write a number down? i can't remember if i said for about for a bonus again.
00:42:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
I've guessed one.
00:42:06
Richard
seventy
00:42:08
Tom Crack
Rob?
00:42:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
I went 62. so
00:42:10
Tom Crack
It's 70. a a Yeah, yeah.
00:42:10
James
ju wow
00:42:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
Is it? Oh, really?
00:42:13
Tom Crack
It's obviously...
00:42:13
Richard
I only knew that because I literally read it the other day and I was like, wow, that is low.
00:42:15
Tom Crack
Yeah, when he scored against... When he scored the other night.
00:42:17
James
i didn't Yeah.
00:42:17
Richard
Yeah, yeah.
00:42:20
Tom Crack
But yeah, 70 for our captain.
00:42:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't trying think. Because Rooney got like low didn't he?
00:42:24
Richard
Is that two points?
00:42:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
So I was trying to think how many has he got.
00:42:25
James
yeah
00:42:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah,
00:42:26
Tom Crack
It is two points, Richard, yeah.
00:42:28
Richard
Wow.
00:42:30
Tom Crack
So Rooney was...
00:42:30
Richard
I'll take it.
00:42:31
Tom Crack
overtook Rooney. Rooney was on 53. So now Kane's on 17th.
00:42:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
that's what was thinking, but then.
00:42:36
Tom Crack
james haven
00:42:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
Didn't feel like that long ago he overtook, but he's obviously banged in 15 goals in that time.
00:42:42
Tom Crack
Yeah, the thing is, though, I mean, so he's made 70 in 104 appearances. Rooney was 53 in 120. Obviously, you know, Rooney's played a lot more games than what Charlton's and stuff would have, but even in the Rooney and Kane gap, they've added so many more games, that haven't they, Nations League and other bits and bobs.
00:42:49
Richard
Yeah.
00:42:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:42:55
Tom Crack
So you're going to break... That's why most of the in international... appearances and goal screen records are now dominated by either players of today or just gone because they've more games to do it in, essentially.
00:43:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm-hmm.
00:43:06
Richard
yeah
00:43:06
Tom Crack
So it's kind of like stat padding to an extent, isn't it?
00:43:09
Tom Crack
But, you know, it doesn't take away how brilliant Kane's been.
00:43:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah yeah
00:43:11
Tom Crack
Even that goal other night was so good in terms of how he controlled it. Question two, how many foreign England managers have there been? There have been three.
00:43:18
James
Oh, get in.
00:43:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:43:20
Tom Crack
And those three, all in our lifetime, all this century, which I assume hopefully on your list in a bit. Sven Goen Eriksson, Fabio Capello and obviously Thomas Tuchel.
00:43:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:43:29
Tom Crack
Question three. I was all over the place with the with word with the wording of this one, wasn't I? But Portman Road hosts an England game in 2003. That's not the answer. During Wembley's rebuild. But who did they play? It was Croatia.
00:43:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, you're
00:43:41
Tom Crack
Yeah. free one
00:43:43
James
Watch Sweden.
00:43:45
Tom Crack
Sweden. Yeah.
00:43:45
Richard
Went to Denmark.
00:43:47
James
Thank you.
00:43:48
Tom Crack
You don't put it wrong.
00:43:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
joking. When you said one of those teams are middle of the road European, I was between Switzerland and Croatia and I went Switzerland.
00:43:57
Tom Crack
Ah, you go. Right, Croatia. i'm not sure who we was in that squad back then. This is before Modric's time, so they weren't as good as they would have been a few years later. But yeah, a bit part European side, isn't it?
00:44:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hmm.
00:44:09
Tom Crack
Question four.
00:44:09
Tom Crack
To the nearest million, how many people in the UK watched England v Spain in the Eurofinal last year? It was 24.2 million. So if you've got 24 mil or whoever got the nearest to that.
00:44:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh,
00:44:19
Richard
Wow, I thought it'd be way more than that. 37, put.
00:44:21
Tom Crack
Right, whatever we get.
00:44:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah, I'm miles was off that. I don't want to say my answer.
00:44:24
James
Yeah. I've
00:44:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
I've potentially named more than there is people in the UK.
00:44:27
Tom Crack
no
00:44:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm now realising.
00:44:32
Tom Crack
but no one gets point there because if you even if you got to the nearest it's pretty far off there but yeah 24.2 question 5 including caretakers how many England managers have there been was 10 it is 10 yep I'll go through them all so James what did you get you get 11 Rob
00:44:36
James
missed one.
00:44:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yep, I have.
00:44:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
Is it 10?
00:44:49
James
i've missed what but
00:44:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
I've got 11.
00:44:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, I've only got eight names, but i tried to guess how many I forgot, so I guessed that I forgot three and went with 11, and I've actually forgot two.
00:44:59
James
Shit.
00:45:01
Tom Crack
Rich?
00:45:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
Also, i did for I put nearly twice the UK population for that question, by the way.
00:45:02
Richard
I got nine.
00:45:04
Tom Crack
No. Yeah, true. So the 10 individuals who have managed England, caretaker or permanent, so the there's two caretakers. One was Peter Taylor in 2000 and Stuart Pearce in 2012.
00:45:14
James
cost that
00:45:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
No. Yeah. Yeah.
00:45:20
Tom Crack
And then permanent, so from 1999 to 2000, it was Kevin Keegan. Then lengthy one, rest in peace, Sven Gorn Eriksson, 01 to 2006. And then we had the Wally with the Broly, Steve McLaren, 2006-2007.
00:45:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:45:35
Tom Crack
Fabio Capello, 2008-2012. Uncle Roy Hodgson, 2012-2016.
00:45:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:45:40
Tom Crack
And then, as you said, Richard, could have been a caretaker, Sam Allardyce. Then, eight years, I think, the longest spell as an England manager. Gareth Southgate, obviously, 26-2024. And Thomas Tuchel.
00:45:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:45:50
Tom Crack
Yeah. and to
00:45:51
James
we have like 30 minutes.
00:45:51
Richard
And Lee You forgot Lee Carsley.
00:45:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hang on.
00:45:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hang on. Lee Carsley.
00:45:53
Tom Crack
Oh, yeah, it wasn't there.
00:45:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
so
00:45:55
Tom Crack
Oh, yeah. Okay, 11 it is.
00:45:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
Is that not 11 then?
00:45:56
Tom Crack
Oh, yeah.
00:45:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
Does that mean there's 11 in total?
00:45:57
Tom Crack

Richard
Wait, hold on.
00:46:03
Global Sports Podcast Network

00:46:03
Richard
So we get we don't get the point for the question.
00:46:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
Get in.
00:46:08
Richard
we I didn't get the number right. But do I get points for the for the managers or not?
00:46:11
Tom Crack
Yeah, why not? Yeah, why It makes more interesting, doesn't it?
00:46:14
Richard
Great stuff.
00:46:16
Tom Crack
Yeah, Carsey, I forgot about that.
00:46:16
Global Sports Podcast Network

James
Yeah, I got it.
00:46:24
Richard
Peter Taylor.
00:46:24

00:46:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
I had a real panic after I wrote it down.
00:46:42
Tom Crack
Good. I've won. We're out of the country we can get that right.
00:46:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
It was 4-1. I nearly changed it.
00:46:44
Tom Crack
4-1. No, no, no. it was two more with the next time and we scored two the next time to win.
00:46:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I wrote i wrote down 4-2 straight away.
00:46:50
Tom Crack
We, as if we were.
00:46:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
Then I just sat there staring it and had a panic.

00:47:18
Tom Crack
What year was that, Jimbo? 98.
00:47:19
Richard
o two thousand and It might have been the World Cup in... Well, when was that?

The Anson Deck one, nicely done, yeah.
00:47:53
Tom Crack
Yeah, that was a good one. My favourite is World of Motion. it's such a tune. It's actually a good song.
00:47:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
Okay.
00:48:00
Tom Crack
like and I know, obviously, it's not about football-based ones, but I think World of Motion, you could play and not read, apart from John Barnes, which is the best part of song
00:48:05
James
He loves
00:48:07
Tom Crack
But like I it's an actual belter of a song, to be honest.
00:48:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
I've seen John Barnes do his rap live before. He was at an event I was at, and he just got handed a microphone and then went, yeah.
00:48:13
Tom Crack
He must milk that every year, every two years.
00:48:17
James
it, doesn't he?
00:48:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, he got given a mic.
00:48:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
It must happen everywhere he goes. They were like, go you're here, mate.
00:48:22

Yeah, yeah.
00:48:22
Global Sports Podcast Network

00:48:32

00:48:33
Richard
Oh yeah.
00:48:35
Tom Crack
We didn't have one for 2024, but there's some... like I think the one for me was like... Do you remember 2010? It was Dizzy Rascal and James Corden. It was like a spin on that Shout song.
00:48:43
James
Shocking.
00:48:45
Tom Crack
It was awful.
00:48:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh yeah.
00:48:47
Tom Crack
Cammy did one in 2012.
00:48:48
Richard
remember that too.
00:48:50
Tom Crack
Yeah, that was all over the place, those ones. And yeah, didn't.
00:48:54
James
jockin
00:48:56
Tom Crack
but where We had a shock and woke up in 2010 as well, didn't we? so And then 2014 was even worse.
00:48:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:49:01
Tom Crack
So there you go Yep, that was one there. And then question nine, who is the most capped England player of all time? It's Peter Shilton, goalkeeper.
00:49:09
Richard

00:49:10
Tom Crack
And the amount, was but what number did you guys dare to be impressive you get this.

00:49:22
Tom Crack
1-2-5. We're fair play. i was Have you seen that stat recently? because That's very impressive.
00:49:29

00:51:15
Richard
Sorry.
00:51:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
and i got it
00:51:17
James
oh
00:51:19
Tom Crack
Yeah, yeah. But that it that's it.
00:51:20
James
and got sure
00:51:22
Tom Crack
That's the quiz done.
00:51:23
Richard
Seven.
00:51:24
Tom Crack
So, totally up the scores, you guys and everyone at home. Again, I'm not sure what this is out of because it's bonus points galore whenever I do a quiz because I just want everyone to feel better about themselves in terms of the amount points they get. Yeah, so obviously it was it James got 20 in the first round, Rich 16 and Rob 19, I think, wasn't it?
00:51:41
Tom Crack
Or maybe all the way around.
00:51:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:51:44
Tom Crack
So, it was close at the end of the last round.
00:51:44
Richard
Yeah.
00:51:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
What did I get in total?
00:51:47
Tom Crack
still have to be closer again. Richard won the first quiz well in like what September October, whatever the last international break was, so can he defend his crown? It's like when it comes to international break, you just do quizzes. like
00:52:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:52:01
Tom Crack
The lack of action on the pitch and all that.
00:52:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
That last question might cost me, I reckon, because I only got five.
00:52:04
Tom Crack
Okay.
00:52:05
Richard
Especially watching England.

00:52:31

00:52:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
well. So got 45.
00:52:37
Global Sports Podcast Network

Tom Crack
Oh!
00:52:41
James
Oh, my God.
00:52:44
Tom Crack
Oh, wow. At the buzz of it.
00:52:45
Richard
That's a wild line quiz for we're all coming in with a point of each other.
00:52:46
James
Do
00:52:46
Tom Crack
I want
00:52:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:52:49
Tom Crack
I wonder what what if theres one of which which point you got the more... I can't think. Which answer you would have got to go ahead of the guys, but it may have been a different question.
00:52:58
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's the last one, Dump.
00:52:59
Tom Crack
That's really...
00:52:59
James
you know what's done it?
00:52:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
Trying to name footballers from the and 80s, Dump here.
00:53:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, that...
00:53:04
Tom Crack
You did a job there, Rob. What do you want off?
00:53:06
James
I think what's done it is your generosity to give me a point for the fouls with the lap.
00:53:11
Tom Crack
It would have been, actually.
00:53:13
James
and We would have gone that far.
00:53:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
host
00:53:14
Richard
Oh, yeah.
00:53:15
Tom Crack
It would be, yeah, yeah.
00:53:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
I told you that. I said at the time, don't give him the point.
00:53:16
James
Thanks, Eddie.
00:53:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
He didn't get it right. That's
00:53:19
Tom Crack
I'd rather you all on a 45 each, but but i'm glad you didn't which I'm glad I gave you that point, James, actually, because I haven't prepared a tiebreaker or anything.
00:53:20
Richard
yeah
00:53:23
James
that
00:53:28
Tom Crack
So, meant to be, I guess. But, yeah, James has won March which International Break quiz.
00:53:30
James
like a
00:53:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
what I like to say. It's that last question. He said he got seven. I got five.
00:53:38
Tom Crack
Yeah.
00:53:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
I've improved.
00:53:39
Tom Crack
Came down to it. Came down to it. Yeah, absolutely. Much closer than I anticipated, to be honest. I thought one of you may have walked up, but that was good.
00:53:44
James
Right, committed.
00:53:47
Tom Crack
Yeah, there we go.
