This week on the podcast, Henry Hill is joined by his Continental Club buddies Dougie Critchley and Michael McCubbin to cast their eye on some of the less-spoken about title races around Europe. After they kick off the episode with some Everton and Manchester United chat, they ask if Sevilla can mount a title challenge and how long it will be until Inter pull away in Italy. Then there’s the more bizarre ones, as newly-promoted Union St. Gilloise lead the way in Belgium, Ajax have conceded just four goals but are second in the Eredivisie, meanwhile none of Turkey’s big clubs are anywhere to be seen in that title race. Any more leagues we should be focusing on? Let us know in the comments section!

0:44.9

Yeah you know what I was looking at I was looking afterwards because I haven't actually

0:48.8

seen God and seen Hampton in quite a while so I was a little bit disappointed but it

0:53.4

was quite, it did seem like quite a thread bare team I don't know if I've had anything

0:57.1

to do with that but I looked afterwards and actually most of the, most of the noises coming

1:03.4

out of the Hampton camp were pretty happy with the performance and they were just coming

1:16.4

He's the right winger, he plays for Briggsie, that's it yeah of course he's gone Briggsie.
