What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This show has aged well - Max can coax a laugh out of almost any discussion but he’s never phony and is willing to be serious and doesn’t hide from heavier subject matter. May it continue.

wbo63 · Oct 2024

There is just something soothing to listen to the contrasting personalities of Max and Barry. They are the Odd Couple of football podcasts and their enduring relationship (or lack thereof) during troubled times is something to make you smile when everything around is such a stench.

Chuckolla · Nov 2023

My uncle told me not to ever trust 1 Star or 5 star reviews, but if anyone was ever deserving of a 5 star, it’s Football Weekly. I’ve been listening for about two years now, and it’s my favorite podcast. Beautifully balanced mixture of hosts, guests, content, and humor.

Harvey Heatherington · Aug 2023

I am starting to follow the Premier League and my friend suggested I listened to this show to become more knowledgeable. Extremely helpful to keep me up with all the teams and have some laughs along the way. Very enjoyable to listen to.

NUWildcats4ever · Aug 2023

But over the course of time, I found myself listening to them less and less. And the times I did listen, I found it becoming a chore to get through an episode. It not being a “fun” or “banter” podcast is fine, but it doesn’t make up for that aspect with high level football analysis. It’s either very on the surface, match highlight reels levels of insight, or reactive punditry to football-narrative drivel from other outlets, such as Sky Sports, and their punditry. Neither of which provides any interesting or insightful view point from the sport they cover. Barring an appearance from the likes of say, Nicky Bandini, most of these guests and hosts have either smug, stale, or uninteresting contributions, filled with lazy narratives and cliches. As a result, the podcast has really gone downhill over the years.
