Ha @notthatmilo, you’re not the only one! -My wife asked during the game, “Is that the same Joe Linton that Bob Mortimer’s Train Guy always talks about?”.
“No, that’s Jeff Linton and this is Joelinton!” 😂

It's a great episode. Nicely balanced and great analysis. Feel like I don't want to listen to anything else now 😅
@hallenbeck @Sam @spurs @notthatmilo @GameIsGloryPod They are always the first Pod I listen to. On a mostly unrelated side note. Johnny Cardoso is from a town about 20 minutes away from me and if he ends up at #THFC, I'm definitely buying his new jersey. 🙃 Very smart & forward-thinking business!
@SwellWines @Sam @spurs @notthatmilo @GameIsGloryPod
Haha, brilliant. I did wonder what with the New Jersey links. Was surprised about Steff's certainty we will never sign him. He looks like a decent shout to me.
@hallenbeck @Sam @spurs @notthatmilo @GameIsGloryPod I actually don't know if I have seen him play. He was only recently called up to the USMNT & was cover for Tyler Adams (who is now hurt). I see no reason why Lange would have included him in the deal, if they weren't interested in signing him. BTW- Cardoso came on as a substitute in Betis' 0-2 Real Madrid loss.
@SwellWines
You can look back over his ratings on Sofascore. Looks like he started really well at Betis and perhaps tailed off a bit towards the end of the season. Will be very interesting to watch his progress. Basically all the upside of a player we've already signed (e.g. like Yang, Vušković), but without the downside of what to do if he turns out not so great. And he's getting experience against good sides in La Liga.
@Sam @spurs @notthatmilo @GameIsGloryPod
Absolutely. A conclusion I came to last season. I still dip in to The Tottenham Way from time to time for Dan KP but TGIAG is head and shoulders above any of the others I’ve heard. Good on Milo for directing people out of Twitter too. Just wish he’d broaden it out to The Fediverse rather than just Bluesky’s corner of it – don’t want people thinking Bluesky is the only part of it. @spurs @hallenbeck @GameIsGloryPod
@Sam @spurs Yeah like TTW. I also like to listen to Ali and Rob on Gold and Guest.
The great benefit of Bluesky is that it's easy to explain and talk about, and easy to get people to sign up and get started. It's a bit of a shame the fediverse doesn't get included in the conversation, but it's hard to talk about without getting into the technical weeds. I just hope Bridgy keeps getting better and, ideally, one day BSky supports a ATP to AP bridge natively.
@hallenbeck @Sam @spurs it’s definitely way above my technical expertise, but I will say that I enjoy the interactions here more than on BlueSky. That may just be a matter of time though.
@SwellWines @Sam @spurs
That's a fair criticism of me failing to give this place a shout out this week too. I have in the past but I do think that Bluesky is a bit easier for people who are used to Twitter to get used to. Hopefully, all of the brilliant work that @hallenbeck is doing convincing people to bridge will make it irrelevant which platform people prefer
Yep, it’s an issue this place has (which will be ironed out in time) that the onboarding process is not seamless.
I have a bridging issue in that I can’t currently bridge as it’s blocked by my (and many other) server(s) (although my admins are coming round to the idea) and I don’t want to move because my number one priority (yes, even over Spurs!) is being on a platform that is 100% genuinely served by renewables.
Keep up the good work @notthatmilo and @hallenbeck. @spurs
I’m a big fan of both Guest and Gold but they do go on and on over the same things in their pod, plus they have ads, so I prefer to read their updates rather than listen to them. @hallenbeck @spurs
@Sam @spurs true, very verbose; good for a long car or train journey which I've had to do a lot of lately.
@Sam @hallenbeck @spurs I much prefer Gold. Guest has a narcoleptic effect on me.
@Sam @spurs @notthatmilo @GameIsGloryPod It is longer than their usual, but they cover a lot & is an engaging listen.
