Pub-based punditry on the beautiful game.
The Football Pubcast is a podcast featuring four (or more) blokes, in a pub, talking football.
Shows are recorded every week from our local pub in Canary Wharf, London.
Those Germans aren’t particularly well known for their sense of humour, but they have given us this wonderful little video…
After unsuccessfully soliciting help from former Manchester United goalkeeper Ron-Robert Zieler when trying to open a “water pod”, referee Dr. Felix Brych ended up with a little metaphorical egg and a lot of water all over his face…
Das ist nicht gut!

I really don’t know what to say to introduce this wonderful video (I’m still pretty speechless to be honest) so take a look for yourselves and make up your own mind. I can safely say though, that once Lukas Podolski retires from football he doesn’t have a future in the music industry!! Check.This.Out.
I’ve heard of parking the bus, but this Dutch fan takes things one step further. In the build up to their Group B grudge match against Germany, he decides to slip under a security fence and place a big orange wheel clamp on the German team bus – and gets a chase from an angry security guard for his troubles.
These are the kind of underhand tactics Mark Van Bommel would be proud of.
