Summary

Being tasked with representing the ‘voice of the fans” on the morning of England’s first appearance in a major men’s final is akin to being awarded an OBE for ‘Services To Chat’, and the recipients of that honour are none other than Elis James and John Robins. On the morning of the big game they speak to comedian Matt Forde and former Football Italia host James Richardson, there’s the final edition of George Egg’s Half Time Snack Hacks, and Producer Dave performs his latest piece of poetreh to commemorate the big day (as commissioned by himself).

0:04.6	Hello everyone and welcome to the podcast of Ellison John's
0:08.4	Pannoltimate European Sunday. It was great show today, obviously, Ramo Jamo
0:13.5	Keblamo because of England at Wembleow. And I hope you are listening to this
0:20.9	in a post-hurt universe.
0:22.8	Well, what John meets is the Holtz England win tonight. Sorry, we talked an awful
0:27.0	lot, especially in the first hour about when England's hurt began.

0:52.9	So please give a mention to the ladies and gentlemen who are competing in the
0:56.4	11242 mile endurance self-supported cycle race, starting in Cornwall and ending in
1:03.3	North Wales. The first few finished under six days, including my brother, Chris Pitt Blado.
1:09.0	That's a cool surname. Great name from Dingwall in Scotland. Maybe not the
1:13.1	Tour de France, but surely a Tour de Force. Lovely turn of phrase, Ash.
1:18.1	Definitely deserves a place amongst this current glut of great sporting
1:21.2	achievements. Now, tell my brother to get home and sell a bike or two for the
1:24.8	Pram for its first born due later this year. Apparently the names Wigo,
1:28.9	Geraint and Hoy are all in with a shout. Hoy Pitt Blado.
1:34.4	That's quite a good name. Hoy Pitt Blado is going to go on
