Listen "The More Things Change..."
Episode Synopsis
In this week’s Nice One Cyril, Simon Lipson, Julie Welch and Kevin Acott pick over another familiar story — Spurs losing at home. Vicario’s nerves, Odobert’s vanishing act, and Tel’s growing pains all come under the microscope, along with a few choice words about the flat atmosphere at the ground.
We ask whether it’s still OK for the over-50s to belt out the chants, why today’s players crumble at the first hint of a twinge, and reminisce about the days when Dave Mackay shrugged off fractures like mosquito bites. There’s also a moan about the nightmare of modern stadium security and a look ahead to Monaco in the Champions League and Everton at the weekend.
It’s therapy, nostalgia, and exasperation — all in one beautifully over-analysed pod.
