Maybe we'll do them in the parsnips. Well, I thought we could do a separate topics of interest agenda.

Right. three magazine stands okay and for the future of men's knickers immediate and long term long term future mm-hmm well I mean anything yeah I really want to
Starting point is 00:07:55 though hold that thought what was the third one magazine stands I used to think for many years that you know those things you get in hotels that you put your suitcase on yeah I thought they were for magazines. That's because you're an ignoramus. Listen up Andy Anthony Gordon, Harvey Elliot and Cole Palmer right right they've been out on the Razz they're a little pulling group yeah yeah and they were there a wine club there a wine bar in Cheshire they sent a meat there before they have their go at the discotheque right yeah it's called Kath and Ken's wine bar up in Cheshire and I've got via the gift of
Starting point is 00:08:39 infinity rocket plastics I've got I've got footage from there yes so that we can enjoy their pre clubbing drinks the progress let's enjoy that how sad's that let's get cool can oh daft's that nice club a girl hey I'm not talking to our cabin chicken Chicken Goosheons! That's it Andy. So they're out, they've met up for their pre-club and drink. They're having a night out in Gardendow's nightclub on the Pull.
Starting point is 00:09:18 There's an older bloke on a table next to them, minding his own business. So he's probably going to come back. I'd think so, you wouldn't have mentioned them otherwise would you, really? Who do you so he's probably gonna come back I think so you have to mention them otherwise would you really who do you think you might be South African older bloke on the table minding it don't know Adrian Lewis anyway so Anthony Gordon he's wearing a Gucci track suit and a Bugs Bunny cap yeah and what baby she's drinking tonight boys Harvey Elliott who's wearing a silk paisley shirt and yellow dungarees espresso martinis, lemon cello spritzers and maduri shots
Starting point is 00:09:56 Anthony Gordon, how mad's that you'll be 18 pancakes high by the time we get to the club what about you, Cole Palmer? Cole Palmer, he's wearing a foil jumpsuit with white Wellington boots like the forensic services wear. See, Cole Palmer, I'll probably stick to me vape. Got a new drug that tastes like a laundry hat and custard. It really is the beans. I'll daft that, says Gordon. If your gaffer finds out he'll go beans on toast on you lad. No if he smells it he'll just think I've been eating me pudding in the laundry.
Starting point is 00:10:33 Yeah maybe how stealth's that? There's a pretty young lady sat at the bar looking over in their direction. Harvey. Hey old boys I think we might have some interest over there at the bar. Harvey do you really think you're gonna pull with that hairstyle? It looks like some scally has thrown the contents of his over bag on your bods. Shut up you divvy and you can talk with your hair a bit haircut. You look like an apprentice fucking monk.
Starting point is 00:11:01 This cut is sharp mate, it's got cled it's got some various fucking straight lines and a lot of interesting angles no one's interested in angles these days just confuses people what if that lass in the club asks you what the haircut actually means do you think that could happen but not because I wouldn't have a clue what to say Harvey Elliott You could just say to tribute to medieval France Just leave it at that like you know
Starting point is 00:11:34 Oh nice one Nice one boss, I'll hear it my doorie Hey lads, I'm not talking to my sister Kevin no more I just thought you should know that she's been on the socials saying I spent 10,000 quid on a machine. How's that? Like I say, just thought you should know. So, what was this machine you bought? I'm not really sure. It's pretty big and not that noisy, so I'm pleased about that.
Starting point is 00:12:07 Lots of people have them, so I thought I'd get on it. Was it an air fryer? I just don't know, Cole. Maybe, fucking, scouse accident. Maybe I'd, cool, maybe I never will. How nuts that? Anthony Gordon. Have we got and Gordon that's a distinction doesn't really matter don't care about that matter no shame that lie hey shall we order some chicken goujans do the do goujans Goosians?

Starting point is 00:13:05 Anthony Gordon. Hey have either of you been on a Brittany Ferry? I bet it's boss on a Brittany Ferry. Do you know they do three different routes to France how sounds that? Can I just say at this point that I am definitely the skinniest of us three. No way, look at Gordon. At this point the man on the next table pipes up. Who's the conveyer, eh?
Starting point is 00:13:30 Well, according to this script... It's Nonsense Potter, Neil Hunt. Hey! Excuse me, but can you three buffoons shut up and let me enjoy my drinks in peace? Your witterings are turning my tits inside out. Who the fuck are you La? I'm Neil Hunt nonsense Potter and it doesn't get much better than that never heard of you pal where Premiership football is so show us some respect or do one the only thing I will be doing is asking the management to make you sling your collective hooks if you don't pipe down.

Fuck up your words, or shut your potty mouth.
Starting point is 00:14:49 Neil Hunt gets up and goes eye to eye with Cowel Palmer. Get out now, or I'll drag you out by your... But before he could finish his words, Cole had put him in a headlock, and was rubbing his face up and down his foil jumpsuit. Get off me! You've picked the wrong fight here sunshine! You should know that I'm a very close friend of a lone shark and my nephew's driving instructor has access to medical swabs via his wife's work. Cole increases the pressure. Neil Hunt accepts defeat.
Starting point is 00:15:20 Okay okay I give in. You can stay. Why oh why is it always me? I don't deserve this. Just this week I allowed the vicar to store his bunting in my garage and I've never gone over 40 miles an hour in my entire life. Cole releases his grip and Neil slumps back into his chair defeated. The young lady from the bar walks over. Hey old lads, looks like things are about to get interesting. The lady stops in front of them. Alright, girl, you want to join us?

Therefore you feel you knows where the nearest shit farm is I'm just judging the area. I think they need a shit farm pretty near It's gonna feel like you're making a judgment call on the area Oh well I don't mean it that way I've been to West Brom where the fuck was Stunk I think you mean that that way. I've been to West Brom where the foot was stunk.
Starting point is 00:19:14 After that Cheltenham or Akron. I mean I'm tempted to think that it's Cheltenham because it sounds bucolic and that and that you're tricking me up. There's no tricks I've just chosen the clubs and then found the shit farms. Okay I'm gonna go West Brom is it Cheltenham? Cheltenham, Akron and Stanley. Cheltenham, Akron and Stanley. In that order, I've told you them. Yeah. West Brom nearest. Yeah. You could not have been more wrong. Oh fucker. Ah dear. Akron and Stanley's nearest shit farm is 5.9 miles from the centre spot.

Starting point is 00:19:53 ship farm. Wow. And there it is. Well thank you for that because I do genuinely enjoy it. Do you happen to know off the top of your head which club has the nearest ship farm? Do you have that info? I've got that info yeah. You're not telling me. I'm not giving it away it's going to be a long running quiz that. Would you like to do a talk sport? Would you like to do a Geordie Heat? Would you like to do a Sean Dice? Can I give you a couple of names first? I meant to do that at the beginning and I didn't get to it. I've got a couple of names for you you can be Sir Richard Scratcher right he is a backbench MP right most of his interjections are along the lines of the claims that the minister makes are all well and good but what my constituents
Starting point is 00:20:38 really need to know at this point in time is that I have got a very very itchy arse. I am actively considering. Richard Scratcher. You can be British Ropes. Right. Or you can be Honky Tog. Honky Tog. There's no explanation to British Ropes I just thought it sounded like a good company name. British Ropes this is good yeah UK Rope. I will be Scratcher. you'd be Richard scratcher very good I'm a very very itchy ass I could I can think myself into an itchy ass you've got to cultivate one in order to beat him yeah let me think what about for you I was thinking of Eileen butterscotch that's all I'm offering
Starting point is 00:21:18 that's all you've got it's weak weak it feels like you've just made it up now have it so you're gonna be Ronnie out dogs yeah be running out dogs fancy fight no I'm not fighting Andy and what do you reckon is there anything that appealed to you talk sport sounds good you like a bit of talk before we do it can I just check again I tell you about the man who came there for breakfast in me travel lodge this morning right he was wearing a very very fluffy dressing gown and slippers in the breakfast room. Did it fuck you up? No, I thought hero. Legend I thought. He got himself a plate of bacon, scrambled eggs,
Starting point is 00:21:56 six slices of white toast. Bacon and dressing gowns, that's a nice title for something. I thought there's someone who's living his best life. Do you think you could combine that as a shop do bedding and bacon? But in a bacon where there's the name of a business So Andy I was listening to Jim White Simon Jordan Sean talk sport. All right the other day. It was a good one So I taped it taped an extract. I'll play that for you. You got your tape recorder there of you. Yeah there Press it. So Jim White,
Starting point is 00:22:27 well you join us just as I'm in receipt of some breaking news that is going to change the way you think about the professional game. It's mind-boggling, earth-shattering and believe me you're going to want to be sat on a very absorbent surface to prepare for this. I'll just get on with it will you Jim, you're burning the optics. Well this is it, hold on to your loved ones. As of next season, referees have been instructed to use a Velcro strip to secure the sleeve pocket rather than the familiar press stud system. There you have it, unbelievable. You know just as we're getting used to the Velcro system,
Starting point is 00:23:08 they come out and drop this bombshell. What say you, Simon? Has the world gone mad? Is this the end of the professional game as we know it? There's definitely a shift, but I think it can be accommodated within the current paradigm, so long as people take a holistic view point of the various manifestations it implies. Well, you can't argue with that, but it is just change for change's sake of all the fixing systems involved in the current game. Surely the sleeve pocket press stud system is absolutely sacrosanct, Simon. Time for change Jim, we're used to fix things with safety pins but obsolescence is built into every fixed system. Just think of no more nails and other glues. They're developing at a pace not previously deemed possible in the labyrinth of developmentism.
Starting point is 00:23:57 That's a great point, but will you at home be renewing your season ticket or will the demise of the prestoed sleeve pocket be the straw that broke the camel's back? I'll be taking your calls after this short message Hey mate your car looks shit and that reflects badly on you and your family to be honest Why don't you buy a new one? Can't afford one? I've spent all my spare cash on air fryers! Ever considered a fuss free loan? There's no such thing! There's always a catch!
Starting point is 00:24:32 Not with David C. John's loans. Just sign and drive. It really is as simple as that. Never heard of them. Are they reliable, honest and transparent? Yes! Well, as far as I know they are so why delay? I won't! It's Yoke Car Time by the way! David C. Johns Loans, what's the C for? Sailing Ships In! Best loan associate of my life! Thanks Boss! David C. Johns, just sign and drive. Well, we've had over a million calls already about this Velcro debacle and I have to say it's pretty much a 50-50 split. One thing's for sure though, it's an end of an era. Surely the game will never be the same. Your thoughts, Simon? Well outcomes, is this the key word?
Starting point is 00:25:22 Will it adversely or inversely affect suitable outcomes? Will those outcomes be transfigurated or reframed by the replacement fixings, Jim? That's what you've got to ask yourself. And that's what we all will be pondering on this momentous day. And I have to tell you that my gallbladder is already squirting excess acids into my upper colon due to the stress of it all. So it's all changed on the referee sleeve fixing front. Goodbye to our old friend the Prestod. When will they stop meddling? Time for the news and sport now with Melody Frankfurter. So it was quite a nice extract. Yeah it's very good, very informative and interesting. They store the brands they like and make important savings, in addition to cash returns.

Starting point is 00:39:32 so that's a sharp kick to my arse what uva would you recommend as a factory replacement denise ah sorry to hear that boss do you have any specific requirements you know? Allergy filters, pet hair attachments, bagless you know out like that? No I just require it to have a good strong pull to it or live in a very fucking dusty house. Well the Hooray Henry is good all rounder and it's a reasonable price. Is that the one with the incredibly fucking cheeky face on the side? Aye that's the one. It's like a little friend with a great big long hooter. No it's just a bit too fucking cheeky for my lifestyle. I want a serious bit of kit.
Starting point is 00:40:20 Well what about a shark then? Don't be fucking deaf to this. I don't live in a fucking water tank. At that moment the Geordie Heat hotline rings. Geordie Heat hotline, how can I help you, spet? It's me, Mr Sting, from the massive house with the massive drive and the massive argon powered lawnmower. And I have got a right cob on, so don't dare mess us about. Oh hello Mr Sting. Attitude. Sorry Mr Sting what appears to be the nature of your emergency? My neighbour has thrown a bag of dog dirt under my paddock and I believe this to be a major incident. I require full forensics
Starting point is 00:41:06 in hazmat suits, road blocks and a trans-event full of sniffy dogs. I cannot live like this but you seem to think that I should. I never said it's acceptable Mr Sting. Now have you secured the bag for evidence reasons? Yes I've placed it under one of my gold buckets and put a bag of spuds on top. That bag ain't going nowhere soon. Well done Mr Sting. Yes, I know. I'm very forensic aware. You might want to put my name forward for a trophy or a scroll. I'm not bothered so long as it's massive. Well, we'll be there as soon as we can Mr Sting.
Starting point is 00:41:45 You better at be. Goodbye! Exterior Massive House, Denise, Sting and Howe are stood in the paddock next to the neighbours wall. Howe is bent down inspecting the bucket. Very nice bucket Mr Sting if you don't mind me fucking saying. I got loads of them. You can have it if you want. Howe lifts up the bucket? Oh, well, it's a very full bag. Must contain a number of movements.
Starting point is 00:42:10 Whoever did this is obviously wanted to make a statement. Aye, must be a week's worth at least. I know good terms with your neighbour. How should I know? Well, there can only be you that would know whether you're in your neighbour on fucking good terms Don't get tricksy with me I refuse to answer that question without my legal team in attendance Fucking hell
Starting point is 00:42:36 Sting, who is your neighbour? Oh it's that footballer with the bald head and dozy Alsatian dog Oh he's got a dog I see that's very fucking pertinent make a note of that PC Walsh. Will do boss do you mean Alan Shearer? Yes that's him always farting about on his shitty diesel lawnmower which is only one seat and the wheels are rubber well the wheels on mine are made of retextured bamboo clods laced with titanium ribbon. of retouched bamboo clods laced with titanium ribbon. What a loser! Sounds to me like we need to have a word with this Shearer bloke. At that moment Alan Shearer pops his head above the wall.
Starting point is 00:43:13 Alright lads how's it going? Not very well actually. What seems to be the problem? Oh as if he doesn't know. Arrest him now or forever hold your peace. Er Mr Shearer does this plastic doggy bag here belong to you sir? No it's something I do with his wife she threw it over the wall last night I'm just returning it. He's lying I have never seen that bag before and I demanded his fingerprinted to exclude Trudy from any involvement so help me God. Yes she often throws these bags over the wall so I thought at this time I'd give it back you should look inside might give you a shock oh yeah that PC will see what we're dealing with Denise unties the bag and
Starting point is 00:43:55 spills the contents on the grass oh my god it fucking stinks Jesus why is it it's fucking gruesome Denise examines the contents more closely. I can see mung beans, leaves, chickpeas, some sort of pellets and maybe some onion rings. Hold on, that's a portion of my mung bean and casserole I cooked last night. Trudy said she was going to eat it in the loop workshop. He must have broken in the loop workshop. He must have broken in and stole it. By God he's a rongin'. Well, maybe your wife doesn't like your cooking mate.
Starting point is 00:44:34 I think maybe we should have a word with your fucking wife mate. Ah, I don't know. Your lawnmower is shit mate. You gave some manual, which is a sick joke! And you will be hearing from my lawyers forthwith and with great haste! Goodbye and you two get off my land! Sting runs off. Thanks for your help Mr Shearer. I shall have a word with Mrs Sting about this and in the meantime, wish you all the fucking best with your future endeavours.
Starting point is 00:45:03 No problemo! Denise and Eddie are back in the Heat Squad car do you want to pop by Curry's have a look at some Hoovers no I'll go online I like to check the fucking reviews oh that's the end that's the he didn't send me any more scripts? There you are. It ended beautifully. I think that my portrayal of Alan Shearer was understated. It was beautiful. But also, I can tell I've been in a film can't you? It's stuck, yeah. Did the film do alright? It came out. It came out, I suppose not. Yeah, yeah, that's all you can ask for. It's out there. Do you want to have a fight? Erm, I'm not gonna have a fight. You can't just say you want to fight. Well I'm not just gonna start on you.
Starting point is 00:45:47 You know what I mean? Lee into you. That's not fair. When you ask if you want to fight you're proposing a box. I am an old man. I feel old.
