A message for Adam, ive got incurable colon cancer and 3 years ago was given 2 years to live. Stay positive my friend. I've found the line 'im a statistic of one' helpful when times get dark. Rooting for you buddy 👍
Only just seen this. Wishing you the best of luck my friend I hope everything’s going well💪
@@Yourfuckinslow Thank you, honestly it means so much. Its humbling when strangers care. Things are going great, treatment keeping things at bay. I've had about 80 rounds of immunotherapy and when I hit 100 rounds I plan on having a party. I'll send you an invite 👍 Thanks again and merry Christmas friend
your positivity and view of life is an inspiration to us all! wishing you the best in life mate
@@aisha.0606 As a Villa fan my positively died over the Christmas period lol. Its comments like yours that both humble and strengthen me so thank you. I can't put it into words how much it means to me. Today will be a good day because of it, thanks again mate 👍
@@tomoavfc1260 as a chelsea fan i wish we could swap places in the league 🤣
This is quality content.
There is nothing quality about content that involves Gary Lineker
@@ShahPhilLeotardowhy you watching it then you spoon
@ShahPhilLeotardo yet here he is with another successful show. It's almost like your opinion isn't shared by everyone else.
@ShahPhilLeotardo what's wrong with Lineker? I actually like him iv watched him take piss out of united and I support united it didn't make me dislike him infact all 3 say bads things about united I don't dislike any of them
@@ShahPhilLeotardogo watch Barbie
Hope you beat that cancer Adam!
That free kick rule is actually a really good point by Gary
Man City would be mid table!
@@superstarDJ537they should be relegated anyways, 115
“Tulips Alan, Tulips” 😂
Alan should have his own spin-off podcast and call it The Rest is F..king Daffodils 😂
Max Bygraves would not have been impressed....
such a wonderful podcast. three people that don't take themselves too seriously and have so much to offer.
That little shoutout at the start was class lads. You didn’t have to do that at all but that was cool. Go on Adam son!
Listening to Gary speak about his playing days makes you understand why he was such a great striker, he thought about the game in a different way, which gave him the edge against defenders, aided by his speed and agility.
What a character Brian Clough was! Wish I was old enough to experience his era
He was a one-off for sure. I laughed at Gary Lineker's story where it went from call me Brian to call me Mr Clough. He did this once at a press conference where a journalist addressed him as Brian and he replied "it's Mr Clough to you". The next journo addressed him as Mr Clough and he said "please, call me Brian".
lol @@NoxiousRob
quality 😄@@NoxiousRob
Micah Richards is the Rustie Lee of football pundits.
These podcasts are so funny and so interesting and the chemistry between the lads is excellent
This content feels like the content they were all born to do, love it fellas 👏
Simply the best chemistry , these three are an absolute pleasure to watch
Excellent podcast. I really laughed at the Brian Clough story.
I'm yet to be disappointed when it comes to Brian Clough ❤
Watching these videos brings me so much joy. After being "down" these 3 never fail to lift my spirits back up. I also thoroughly enjoyed when Howard Webb was on, and would love to see more guests in a more relaxed manner. The behind the scenes stories are great!
I love these podcasts you three do absolutely brilliant.
Just the best quality content I can imagine. Funny, insightful, interesting. Beautiful balance and I hope it keeps going for a long time.
Get well soon Adam
Just getting into podcasts. Came across you guys. You are so engaging. Love it!
Quality Podcast.....love all of you guys. Thanks for the entertainment.
Someone tell Al to paint over that little white spot on his wall I’m keep scratching me screen thinking it’s my phone🤣🤣🤣
This is one of the best pod casts I’ve come across
Loving this pod lads...listening on my blue tooth headphones at work in New Zealand. Absolute quality. 👍
Love these videos, keep em coming!
You just gonna love these three.
Great podcast.Thoroughly enjoyable.Erudite and entertaining.
I could listen to these guys all day
Every episode is pure quality
Brilliant, highly entertaining as always.
Micah Alan and Gary in Amsterdam should be a special episode
Great show lads, the banter is hilarious
Three legends, great content.
the carlos alberto bit from the other pod.... i have seen it 100 times over n over
Brian Clough stories ❤luv it❤
Loving the podcast chaps!
Still can’t get used to hearing Gary swearing!
Are you five?
Ah Neil Armstrong dead. The Carlos Alberto clip is still one of the funniest things I've ever watched. Shearer nearly dying of laughter when he fell on the floor.
Just lost my wife to stage 4 bowel cancer. My heart goes out to Adam and his family. Don't let it define you. #f*ckcancer
Sorry to hear that, must be a rough time. Absolute, fuck cancer.
@noooname2568 The worst three years of our lives, took my wife and our second child, but we made so many great memories.
Only found this channel last night I love it put all bias aside you can't dislike them an the story's are funny I love hearing them
Another brilliant show.
19:49 spot on Gary, free kicks give an advantage to the defensive team which is ridiculous
My fav podcast right now. Need some wrighty on here aswell. The mans laugh is infectious 😂
Micha just giggling whole way through 😂😂
I loved it when u three did the top 10 pods together on sounds n iPlayer so to see u lot link up again is sick to see😁😁😁😁
Love this podcast,you guys are comedy gold😂
Top quality pod!
totally agree on the offside feet onside then that's good.
Great podcast yet again
Best football podcast around.
Oh lads more of this please it’s too good
6:00 Gary always talking as if the dead are still alive. First Carlos Alberto now Neil Armstrong 😂 Edit: Just saw him realise LOL
Brilliant idea from Gary re freekick rule.. love that
it's so nice after all these years to actually get Gary's proper opinions on stuff... always had to have some degree of impartiality it's great to hear his actual views on stuff
Hi there, from Malta. Simply awesome podcast - the cheerful Micah, the more subtle Lineker and the slightly more rough Shearer - the perfect balance, the three Musketeers. Question: do you think that clubs should invest more in their academies and use their players? In other words, should for example the FA impose that each starting 11 should have at least 3 players coming from the academy. I think this would surely limit the spending and would result in a better national team eventually.
Loving this, from Victoria Australia.
Match of the day needs more of this personality about it. By comparison it’s really dry. This is really fun to listen too. Subbed, keep it coming fellas.
I don't need another podcast, keep it up lads!
Peter Shilton was also from Leicester. He and lineker still go to some Leicester home games
Always satisfying to hear 😍
Daffodils!!!😅 Love this podcast.
I’m so thankful I found this.
Such a great podcast😊
1000% agree about the offside
Hi guys great podcast never fail to crack me up. Gary this one’s probably for you I’m a Leicester fan and just got my season ticket back. What do you think to the season so far and the football we are playing under enzo? Would you want anymore signings to come through the door and who?
I remember that famous song that Max Bygraves used to sing..when it's Spring again, I'll bring again, daffodils from Amsterdam
By far the best Ref for the banter was v4 these Guys and it was Headmaster Gordon Hill,who was very down to earth and told the players exactly what he thought.
We were all there, on March 29th, 1992, Alan. Great day out...shame we lost!
Legends ❤ love it
Alan ‘Micah won’t remember this’ Shearer
Just quality boys
Love this show so 😂😂
Sky is in trouble this is a quality show so glad i came across this while I'm off work as bus hit me car 😔
All the best Adam ❤
Alan's comment about the ref giving players stick in return reminded me of a couple of incidents from when I posted Saturday morning football in a local church league. We lined up ready to kick off for the second half of a game but the other team were still off the pitch and I jokingly said to the ref "come on, kick it off now mate" and he just turned and looked at me and said "you'd still f***ing miss!" 😆 we had another ref who worked with the wife of our team captain and whenever he reffed our games, he would try and find any excuse he could find to give our captain a yellow card, just to wind him up. It's good when refs are like that and show their human sides and can have a laugh with players.
Love this triumvirate of titans
We all go in the end. True words Gary😁😊😉🙏
Gary trying to Rubiales Cloughy lol
@restisfootball what is the most bizarre thing you have ever seen happen on the pitch during a game, either as a player or a pundit. Ps. Loving the podcast all the way from Australia, keep up the banter!
Top show fellas
Remember at Villa Park one time Phil Dowd having a dismal game and got the classic “You’re not fit to referee chant” from the Holte. He waved his finger at us like a conductor. Fair enough really. Doubt a ref would get away with that now.
Having binge watched around 10 or so of these podcasts today, I'm beginning to think some of the names of the people emailing in are a little suspect 😅😂
You 3 together are brilliant looking forward to many more (years hopefully) videos of this format. A question that was brought up was what law would you change. And I think now with VAR a team should be allowed 2 or 3 challenges/objections in a match that they can stop play and ask the ref and var to look at something that they feel should be given or not and explain why. Surely that could all be done by the 4th official and var while play continues maybe maybe not. As this might stop some of the smaller teams feeling hard done to as it seems like every week it's the same teams/managers moaning about decisions not given. And with that law being introduced everyone would feel that all clubs would be on the same level of fairness as everyone always says that the so called top 6 always get away with stuff. Surely it would not be hard to put something like that into the game and it wouldn't really slow the game down that much.
always found it so cool gary played in a foreign league nevermind barcelona love hearing stories about his time abroad
Think all 3 rule changes are spot on & would make the game much better for fans & players & far less frustrating. Personally think i preffered the old offside rule too when if your offside your offside. Alot of the ‘’ inactive ‘’ offside players are still causing the defenders to have to think about them & therefore active in the play imo.
I agree, it's another example of bringing subjectivity into the decision. At which point does a player go from being active to inactive? I might be in an offside position on the opposite side of the pitch when a ball is played to you, so I'm deemed to be inactive, but if a defender moves out to cover me surely I'm active as I'm influencing the move.
Best thing on KZhead
Picking daffodils 🤣🤣
This is brilliant fellas, I really like the camaraderie, the tempo, and as an Arsenal fan, I especially loved Gary and Alan's responses on the dark arts!
@therestisfootball Hey lads, much love from Malaysia. Football has been my wife since the age of 3 and seeing legends of the game like yourselves just brings more joy. Anyways my ques is, which team (past/present) that you think was the baddest, biggest and technical of all time. Thanks again lads, much love, Shafiq ❤.
The Saudi's already have a team in the Champion's League - Newcastle.
Agree Gary... All attacking players behind the ball/ freekick are on side... Eliminates allowing the opp to set and reform.. Totally destroys the advantage and consequence to the opp.. Good call... And great show Boys - Vinny West Yorks
@therestisfootball did any of you play in a game where Pierluigi Collina was the referee. He feared the life out of me just watching him on TV 😂
I still want to know who Shearer's picking for his quiz team 😂😂😂
* Finally * , _ the Linesmen gave the Ref , the Man Of The Match Cap. !.. sent from ynwa, Wavertree. A wonderful Pod Cast
Offside with just the feet is absolutely spot on, its exactly how it should be
Diving header?
Tulips 😂😂
Big up Adam wish you a full recovery
😂😂 our Brian Clough was notorious for kicking opponents and punching his own fans 😂😂❤❤🏴
Alan with the daffodils in Amsterdam...lol...😂😂😂 U 3 are so funny and the chemistry between u all is top level fairplay 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😂😂😂 Keep these podcasts coming thick and fast lads 😍😍😍⚽️⚽️⚽️
The offsides should be if score with feet do line from feet if score with measure head or whatever body part score with
