We're amazed you do (others may be amazed you do, too) but we love you for it, so thanks. We'd love to tell you that, for our 50th show, we had something particularly special in store. In fact it was little different to any other show, with one notable exception - a rocket and watercress salad, which became a surprise star of the show towards the end of our Pubcast. We cover all the usual, the latest results, the weird stories of the week, our cult heroes (centre midfielders this week) and an update on our adopted team, Melbourne Heart.

Despite Simon and Jim's lifelong allegiance to Gillingham, the draw was a fair result in a game that saw the first half dominated by the Gills, while the second period was bossed by the Bees.
