  • Sutton United (H) Review and Truro City (A) Preview - A routine win for United as they prepare for the long journey down to Cornwall - Season 25/26, Episode 45
    Apr 16 2026

    Dan is back on the pod for the first time in a while and what better time to do it than ahead of one of the most anticipated away league fixtures United have played in a long time.


    First, we take a look back on the routine 3-0 win over Sutton United at Brunton Park which leaves United needing just one more win to secure third place and go straight into the play-off semi-finals.


    Can they get those three points this weekend? Almost 900 members of the Blue Army will be making the journey south for United's first ever fixture in Cornwall, to take on already relegated Truro City.


    Lots discussed in this episode, including:


    🟡 Sutton United win reviewed

    🔍 Away Fan view from Gareth from BBC Cornwall

    🥫 Truro City (A) Preview

    🔵 Ex-Blues Round-Up

  • Easter Weekend Review and Sutton United (H) Preview - A pair of draws over Easter but United remain in pole position for third place - Season 25/26, Episode 44
    Apr 10 2026

    A pair of entertaining draws against Gateshead and Morecambe over Easter could have put a huge dent in United's hopes to finish in third place and go straight into the play-off semi-finals, but two contrasting results for Boreham Wood mean the gap only shortened by one point, and with three games left to go, that five-point gap means United remain in the best position to gain home advantage in early May.


    The first of those three games comes this weekend against Sutton United - a side United still haven't beaten, can they end the hoodoo against the Londoners this weekend?


    We look back on the games against the Heed and Shrimps, before previewing the visit of the U's to Brunton Park.


    Lots discussed in this episode, including:


    ⚫ Gateshead draw review

    🦐 Morecambe draw review

    🚫 No Away Fan Chat

    🟡 Sutton United (H) Preview

    🔵 Ex-Blues Round-Up

  • Behind Enemy Lines - Morecambe (A) - Season 25/26, Episode 43
    Apr 5 2026

    Something a little bit different this Easter Weekend - a bonus episode! Instead of packaging our usual "Behind Enemy Lines" chat with an opposition fan into the main episode, we've done it as an extended stand alone, and it's a really good one (if I do say so myself!).


    This week, we're chatting with Dave Salmon, Morecambe FC commentator for Beyond Radio and a fan of the Shrimps for more years than he cares to remember! Plenty discussed with Dave ahead of the bank holiday clash, including whether the appointment of Jim Bentley came too late to give them a decent chance of survival, their slap-dash transfer approach this season and some of the links between the two teams in each squad.
