Episode Notes

Adam Hurrey is joined on the Adjudication Panel by Charlie Eccleshare, David Walker and Nick Miller. On the agenda: Ireland's preliminary World Cup heroics, Norway’s World Cup “grey horses”, Dion Dublin partially settles the “Diadora pass” mystery, law firm partners with superbly football surnames, Sean Dyche on his personal finances, unexpected false-nine nostalgia, the lesser-known technicalities of "doing the 92", a fascinating in-tray for Sheffield Wednesday’s administrators, and some manic Brazilian commentary.

Meanwhile, the Clichés empire expands to a whole new ball game: new podcast CRICKET CLICHES will be your alternative Ashes companion, and you can get involved at cricket.footballcliches.com
