Listened to it last night and it was a cracking listen. Andy was excellent and passionate about the Albion, which is why I am surprised keyboard warriors give him such a hard time. Keep it going guys

Glad you liked it. I'm afraid the keyboard warrior thing is the way society has gone. It seems you can't do anything, even with the best intentions, without someone jumping down your throat.

I really struggle with Andy's voice. He's just so monotone. I turned it off after about quarter of an hour as a result.

I've listened to a few. Its alright. A bit dry for my tastes, so I've not bothered subscribing. I dip into it now and then if I'm running low on the interesting pods.

I thought exactly the same but stuck with it and found it really enjoyable. Naylor's voice even started to become bearable towards the end.

Only complaint is the host should have pushed him harder on which managers were a pain to work with.

Have subscribed.

Shame because you probably missed the bit about social media trolls. Criticising the way someone speaks is a new one, sometimes I wonder how low people will actually go to get a reaction.

Its a fascinating hour. Andy is insightful about the club and has great stories from his 30 or so years reporting for the Argus and the long long fall and rise of the club over that period. Recommended.

Never liked Naylor particularly, and thought he came across as a bit ‘I know better than you’ etc. But, very impressed as to why he became a Stoke fan, and stuck to it as well. Far better than many whose only reason for supporting a team is if they win stuff, both in the UK but particularly true here*.

* How can a league really operate without relegation?

If that's a sly dig, which I assume it is, then that's a shame. I listen regularly but just found this particular episode a real struggle due to Andy's voice (but also a lot of his opinions to be honest). My time is limited and if I'm finding something boring and tedious then I'm simply not going to stick with it.

Also, I'm assuming in the section on social media you highlighted the fact that having an opinion isn't trolling. Criticising someone for having an opinion and turning off your product because of the quality of it is quite low though; it certainly doesn't reflect well on you as a podcast maker.

Luckily for you, most others seemed to enjoy this particular episode. I just wasn't one of them.
