Summary

The boys share their thoughts on Barcelona's tense 3-2 win over Real Madrid in the Spanish Supercopa Final (in Saudi Arabia) including Raphina's heroics and Madrid's missed opportunities. We'll also dive in the magic of the cup as Non-League Macclesfield stun defending champions Crystal Palace and... well... Manchester City drop 10 on Exeter City (but Haaland didn't score, so at least Exeter have that).

On the homefront, Ricardo Pepi suffers a broken arm while scoring for PSV and Josh Sargent appears motivated to leave Norwich City and England as a whole.

And finally, we're joined by Paul Fraser, writer of the movie 'Saipan' about Roy Keane's dramatic falling out with Mick McCarthy ahead of the 2002 World Cup. We'll discuss Paul's process of writing the screenplay and Andrew will declare his verdict for who was right and who was wrong in this iconic confrontation.

Caught Offside with Andrew Gunling and J.J. Devani.

0:08.4

Oh, yes. Caught Offside from just outside of New York City and from an apartment in Brooklyn, New York.

0:15.0

Andrew Gunling, J.J. Devaney. What's up, brother?

0:18.7

Hey, man. How are you? Doing all right? How are you? I'm good. It's one of

0:23.2

those weekends where you're, you're certainly, you're less engaged. I'll put it that way. You're

0:28.5

watching games, but you're not like, I suppose it depends where you're coming from. Maybe if

0:34.7

you're a Tottenham supporter or you're a Man United supporter, this weekend was just more horror because the FA Cup is a trophy you want to win. I think for

0:42.7

everybody else it's a bit like, hey, take it as it comes, Latin breezy. Maybe. I don't know if Crystal

0:49.2

Palace is feeling that way this morning, but we'll talk about that coming up here shortly. We'll talk

0:55.5

about a classical super copa final between Real Madrid and Barcelona, a really fun game. We'll get to

1:01.3

that. And then JJ, I know you spoke to Nick McCarthy a couple months ago. We've been talking about

1:06.9

the upcoming release of the movie Saipan. It's out in Ireland. It's going to be out soon

1:13.6

in England. Unfortunately, right now in the U.S., there isn't a release date that's currently set,

1:19.4

which is, quite frankly, it's ridiculous. This movie should be, you should be able to see it here in the

1:24.2

United States. It's not right. But it's a topic, the Roy Keene

1:28.2

versus Mick McCarthy slash FAA, whatever the battle is, really Roy versus Mick. We've been

1:34.0

talking about it. It's a fascinating story. One of the most compelling soccer stories of the last,

1:39.1

I don't know, 50 years, I would say. And with the movie out now, the writer of that film, Paul Fraser, is going

1:45.9

to join us in just a little bit. And then, so we'll talk with him about kind of the mechanics and

1:50.0

the process of the movie and the story and how it all came together. And then, so I've seen it

1:55.1

now. We got a screener that was sent to us, which is amazing. I loved it, and I have, I'm ready to litigate.

2:03.7

Wow.
