IMPORTANT: from next week, we're making some changes to our pod output, particularly in what's going to be free-to-air and what will stay behind the IFS Patreon paywall.
You can read about it all in this very brief (!!!) post
In light of the tweet he sent from his personal account today in which he threatened a government minister with assault, we have decided to sack Andy Dawson from this podcast with immediate effect. We are also launching an internal enquiry to establish how this matter escalated.
Five years ago today, we released the first in what should have been a 25-part podcast series covering the history of the Premier League. We've still only managed to get as far as the 2008-09 season.

RAINBOW EXCLUSIVE!
Turns out that Geoffrey's son Tom is a TFTM listener and he's sent us these exclusive pics of Zippy and George hanging out in their retirement rig earlier today. Cheers Tom!
We got an email from a woman who was at last night’s London show on her own. If you’re the ‘pubescent weedy Lampard’ (lol), please fuck off as far away as possible from our live shows and our podcast because it’s clearly all going way over your head. You’re a fucking arsehole.
My cat Nelson died yesterday. Here he is in happier times, a bag of poppadoms he'd been been rading caught round his neck. I'll miss the lovely bastard. Absolutely gutted.
The pest control man has arrived at my rig in full hazmat suit and Ghostbusters kit and I think I have 6 month’s worth of
@TFTimeMachine
content already.
‘I still don’t see why I can’t have Lord Sebastian in the photograph with me. Some of other boys were pictured with their brothers. I’ve studied the rules and there’s no mention of a hamsters...’ etc etc
If we get wind of anything like this happening during the shows you'll be kicked out. If you see anything like this going on, call it out because we're not having it. If you're reading this, delete your fucking Turbo subscription you dismal little wanker - we don't want you.
BREAKING: The Saudi-led takeover of

appears to be back on after the Saudi state resolved issues with beIN Sports over illegal streaming of Premier League football.
Fuck VAR. Fuck the ludicrous pantomime of taking two minutes to decide if someone's pube has strayed offside. Fuck this thirst for the 'correct decision' at the expense of the game's natural drama. Put VAR in a sack and smash it up with Sam's terminator.
Happy New Year! Here's to a significantly better 2022 for all of us, and thanks to all our listeners for supporting us in 2021.
(Hardly surprising though - we're easily one of the best podcasts around)

- and you can buy it in a lovely frame for your rig now!
It’s already hard for women to feel comfortable about going to shows alone, and with our mostly-male crowd it must be harder still - and then having to fend off shit like that from some pathetic little fuckhead is beyond the pale.
We had shit like this from knuckle-dragging wankers when we talked about the Raheem Sterling racism at Chelsea too. If you’ve got a problem with it, feel free to fuck all the way off.
Massive thanks to everyone who came to see us at
@21Soho
last night - we had a right laugh and that's the main thing. Special thanks to Show Legend Graeme for bringing us hi-vis gifts
Today's episode will not be attempted until this afternoon as Sam is suffering from what he describes as 'some sort of excitement illness'. Apologies for the delay.

Yes. Yes it is.
Hi Mike, Andy hasn't written for the Mirror since March 2016 and hasn't written for the Guardian since April 2018. He has no plans to write for either title in the future. Hope that clears up your misunderstanding about his employment status. Hope all's well at the moment.

please show some backbone and confirm this ghastly and violent contributor has been fired and will never appear in their content ever again?
Tonight, just in time for Christmas, we will release the world our long awaited debut single 'Livin' Out Loud' plus the world premier of accompanying 'pop video'
Who's ready to have their entire worldview smashed to pieces?
We're going to try and put out a new episode every day for the next couple of weeks or so, in an attempt to keep everyone's spirits up while we self-isolate and all that shit.
Some lovely things being said about us in this thread, which is nice as tomorrow marks four years since we started what should have been a 25-part look at old Premier League seasons. And then we got distracted...
Today’s episode of
@TFTimeMachine
is one of the best podcast episodes of anything ever.
@DelaneyMan
telling a series of hilarious stories and
@profanityswan
brilliantly hosting. Seriously if you don’t listen to this podcast already, get on this episode and you’ll be hooked.
Over Christmas we're doing a series of '50 Greatest Moments In British History' and we need your nominations.
Here's some of the things that are on the shortlist...
Here's an epic piece of Emu gold with Keith Chegwin from the opening of Rod Hull's 'This Is Your Life' from 1983.
(We'll be covering the full episode from Wednesday for IFS subscribers)
If you’re a Boris Johnson fan, this probably isn’t the podcast for you. We’re the polar opposite of everything the gibbering heap of shit is and represents.
Breaking News from the Leniverse: Monty Moores has been SACKED as assistant manager of Hammersmith United by his lifelong best mate Geoffrey Skate. Drama level: Shakespearean. More to follow...
Sorry for lack of pod today. I (Sam) have had a major mic issue that may or may not have involved Millwall. Full inquiry underway. Should have your precious content tomorrow.
Everton have made a formal complaint and asked for an apology to Frank Lampard and his players over Saturday's VAR decision in their 1-0 defeat by
