Sweeper! - Steve Bruce (Chapter 8)
A chapter we can safely describe as 'lesser Bruce' as one too many automobile based interventions hinder Steve (and arguably the plots) momentum to both solve the mystery of Old Sam and prepare for the upcoming match under the floodlights. But we do enjoy the return of an old 'friend' who we thought we'd seen the last of...
Thanks, Chris, Josh and Michael

Sweeper! - Steve Bruce (Chapter 7)
Erik Bantona, Ryan Bobson, David Becklamb, Cristiano Ronalyes, in the history of Mulcaster United the number 7 has been steeped in legend. To be associated with said numeral is a mark of quality, of commitment to excellence, of the ability to elevate your chosen pursuit above and beyond those around you. Will the same semantic brilliance pour from the pages of chapter 7 of Sweeper! ? The answer... is no...
We do however learn a lot more about the dynamic of Steve Barnes marriage and their Sunday newspaper consumption habits, his contempt for those who dwell on the past, and we meet the enigmatic Mr Smith who may or may not have

Sweeper! - Steve Bruce (Chapter 6)
Chapter 6 is here and we're into big hitter territory now. Steve uncovers more details about the enigmatic Sam and his shady past, something foul fills the air in Leddersford and it's not just the tripe. And yes, we're both crestfallen and relieved that the plot is starting to gain some real momentum. Let's hope for Steve's sake he can make it back in time for Christmas shopping with Susan...
Thanks, Chris, Josh and Michael

For this episode, we are joined by comedian and one part of the Oh What A Time podcast, Tom Craine, to watch back the first episode of ITV’s The Premiership.
We review ITV’s brave new world of 7pm starts, scoreboards and fact graphics flanked by Andy Townsend’s Tactics Truck.
We also get Sunderland manager Peter Reid in what looks like a hostage video, Fabrizio Ravanelli cooking pasta with Derby’s Spaghetti Bob and Leeds United’s Alan Smith – the first winner of Ally McCoist’s Golden Goals - scoring a goal which is probably better than Dennis Bergkamp’s v Newcastle.
Plus, we dive into your correspondence which includes the TRUTH behind why Wolves were sponsored by Doritos and the first Let’s Be Having You Verified confirms an interesting story from Alex’s past.

Sweeper! - Steve Bruce (Chapter 5)
Chapter 5 picks up with some dynamite prose from Bruce. A masterclass in semantic efficiency. And then goes swiftly and consistently downhill from there...
We meet Steve's short-term sidekick in landlord Malik, and there's some revelations about the dynamic of Steve's marriage. We'd call this chapter 'joining tissue' - and we'd also love to know which famous crime writer would do the best job at rewriting or punching up the Bruce / Barnes trilogy?... answers on a postcard below...
Thanks

Chapter 4 is here and it's a classic. Steve goes on the search for more info about the mysterious Sam and finds himself in a rougher part of Leddersford where there's something in the air....and it might just be the sound of tripe...

Sweeper! - Steve Bruce (Chapter 3)
We're back in Leddersford and it's a trip to the morgue for Steve Barnes to try and get to the bottom of Old Sam's increasingly mysterious demise. There's a memorable cameo for some new but fleeting characters in this chapter (let us know who you imagined playing them in the film / TV spin off below) and elsewhere in the postbag we solve a mystery of our own when it comes to Steve's son Alex appearing in photos of the England team in that infamous trip abroad before Euro 96...
Thanks

Chapter one of book two in the Steve Barnes trilogy is here!
Is Godfather Part 2 and Empire Strikes back to book one? Or more like Greece 2?
Only one way to find out...
We begin with Steve up to his old tricks as he sets up the new mystery at Leddersford Town and we meet suspicious janitor Old Sam, and ponder just how much blood does Steve Barnes have on his hands already?....

This Month in the 90's - December 1999
In this episode we look back at the last month of this glorious decade - December 1999.
Leeds United top the table. Travis and 'The Man Who...' dominate the charts. Ginola gets goal of the month. And crucially, we speculate on whether Chelsea FC was a secret sanctuary for diminutive players...
Thanks
Chris, Josh, and Michael.

Yes, you read it right. Somehow Chris has managed to convince us to watch and then talk about the WWF event 'Summerslam 92' (and the spectacle of wrestling in general) and it's safe to say we don't always share his enthusiasm.
On top of that we've got some more great 90's football correspondence including an update on the Hereford Bull, and a Quantum leap style discussion about what would happen when one result from history has changed and the impact it would then have had on Big Sam Allardyce... "THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!!!!"
Thanks,
Chris, Josh and Michael

QKWHS - Born To Save: The Peter Shilton Story
In this episode we watch and dissect a documentary about one of the key figures in the QK universe, Mr Peter Shilton.
Includes one of the most boring pieces of archive footage since Paul Stewart told his infamous anecdote, and a deep dive into the origins and variations of Shilton's hair.
It's a fascinating insight into a man who made his debut professional BEFORE the 1966 World Cup Final and was still failing to dive for penalties as late as 1997!!!! Were we wrong about his legacy? Yes. And also, no...
Thanks,
Chris, Josh and Michael

Chapter 13: Striker! by Steve Bruce
The boys are once again joined by QK legend Ivo Graham to forensically examine Steve Bruce's 'Striker' in the chapter by chapter deep dive format. This month - Chapter 13
It's the final countdown. The match against Fulton is finally here. The killer is still on the loose. Leddersford don't have a recognised striker. As Bruce / Barnes ties things up in the messiest of literary bows the plot moves at a terrifying pace (and at times an illogical one) in this final chapter of the literary masterpiece. Thanks for joining us on this journey - we've loved every minute and can't wait to start book two in 2022. Until then...
