Episode 372 – The AFTN Soccer Show (2019 Christmas Special – Part One featuring Andy Rose)
It’s Chriiiiiiiiiissssssstmaaaaaaasssssss. All hail Noddy Holder, as we bring you our 2019 AFTN Soccer Show Christmas Special.
The show was so long we’ve had to split it into two parts for you, as we thought no-one will likely want to listen to four hours of this all in one podcast! So we’re bringing you part one today and part two on Christmas day itself.
It’s our usual festive mix of football chat, fun, games, gifts, and lots and lots of some of our favourites Christmas song, with many of them this year coming from our selected Artists of the Month.
We’ll be looking at the week’s big news in Whitecapsland and across MLS and Canadian soccer interspersed with it all, including Lucas Cavallini’s arrival, the fixtures for the season coming out, and the publication of the report into the women’s abuse scandal. Plus Andy Rose shares some Christmas memories with us from both on and off the pitch.
