Ahead of the Derby… GFOP @zane_rm sent in this @buzzFeed image of Everton fans in 1927. Rog is the one with the sign.
Your Young Player of the Year when he was REALLY young.
GFOP Charles Thomas asks… is Owen Hargreaves King of the North?
From GFOP Matt Golubieski, who writes:
I thought you guys might enjoy this program we found in my grandfather’s old things from 1948. Apparently I wasn’t the first in my family to enjoy watching soccer over here.
Few letters warm our cockles more than a dog named Giggs.
From GFOP Felicia Chapman:
My fiance and I have a dog named Giggs (does that doggy name make it obvious why we consider ourselves GFOPs?), and after the latest podcast we have been referring to him as War Giggs. “Sit, War Giggs!” “Where’s your ball War Giggs?” “War Giggs! Get my armor!”

The song remains the same. Manchester United, Manchester City, Tottenham, and Chelsea all managed wins. But while there wasn’t a change in the Top Four, the weekend wasn’t without its drama. Gareth Bale was like clockwork in Spurs’ all-important triumph over Arsenal, leaving their North London rivals with more lingering questions about the club’s direction. In this week’s pod, Michael and Roger analyze all the ramifications from the derby, turn their attention to the relegation battle, and reflect on the opening weekend of MLS.
If that wasn’t enough, the Blazers also speak with iconic ESPN broadcaster and jolliest man alive Bob Ley about his days as the public-address announcer of the Cosmos, how the culture has changed in Bristol over the years, and what truthfully is the secret to eternal youth. Horse placentas are about to have their moment in the sun.
