| 0:00.0 | Hello, it's Tuesday, 14th April. I'm Jules Breach, he's Andy Russell and this is Jules and Andy on Football Rumble Daily. |
| 0:10.0 | First Liverpool now Tottenham have done a new turn on their decision to use the government's job retention scheme during the coronavirus pandemic. |
| 0:17.0 | Chairman Daniel Levy said he regrett any concern caused during an anxious time. |
| 0:24.0 | These businesses can react, they can furlough their staff but if a football club dare do it, it's vilify. |
| 0:34.0 | Andy, another week in lockdown, another week isolating, I want to know how many hours of this last week have you spent playing FIFA with your son? |
| 0:44.0 | Quite a lot but what has happened is we've got to the point in lockdown where he's played it enough that he's good and so you're beating you. |
| 0:54.0 | Like all the time and so can't let that happen. |
| 0:58.0 | I'm not I'm not even trying to lose. I mean he's eight my my my my oldest and the annoying thing is he sits there beating you and he's saying at all time I'm so good at this. |
| 1:10.0 | I'm so good at this. I was going to say that he's really smug but I know you're also big basketball fans aren't you? |
| 1:17.0 | So you've got basketball hoop in your garden. Yeah, you surely can't beat you at that. You've got a good a good few feet on him. |
| 1:24.0 | Well, he complains every time I make a block but basically he's super quick and he's much better than me of that as well. |
| 1:31.0 | So basically my life at the moment is being panelled manly and digitally by an eight year old. |
| 1:41.0 | So that's pretty much how you're talking to you. Well, Andy. |
| 1:44.0 | Yeah, I don't think I've taught him enough. I think that's the problem. |
| 1:49.0 | But what about you, Jules? I mean you've been making the most of the home environment by evolving to interview Premier League stars whilst wearing your slippers. |
| 1:58.0 | I mean, that is an achievement. I know. Isn't it weird because you know when you normally get prepared to do an interview with a player, |
| 2:05.0 | whether it be Premier League or whatever level you're doing, there is that element of pressure and you still get nervous every time you're going to go along and meet one of the players or the managers to interview them. |
| 2:14.0 | And there's quite a long process that goes into it. Whereas for me yesterday I thought, well, I have to do my hair and makeup because I'm going to be on camera. |
| 2:22.0 | So I have to get dressed, but I'm going to put shoes on and it dawned on me after the interview. I thought I've just interviewed James Ward, |
| 2:29.0 | Prouse of Southampton, wearing my slippers. And this is completely normal nowadays. |
| 2:34.0 | But it's, you know what, it's been really interesting because like with anything at the moment during this pandemic, everything is taking a lot of time. |
| 2:42.0 | So it's been a good, what are we in now, the third or fourth week of being in lockdown? And it's only just got to a point now where we're starting to fully broadcast from home. |
