The most unique football podcast returns with a special live show to mark the release of the long-awaited follow-up to Football Clichés, Adam Hurrey's cult book on the language of football.
Does language evolve? Yes, it does.
Will it ever be acceptable for a football commentator to call a shot that bounces before it goes in 'a screamer'? No, it will not.
As the self-appointed world expert on the subject, Hurrey – along with his podcast co-hosts Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker – sets off to establish the definitive rules of how we talk about the game.
Is the language of football in crisis? In finding out, this show will be exactly as gloriously pedantic as it sounds.
Tickets come with the option to secure a half-price copy of Hurrey's new book – Extra Time Beckons, Penalties Loom: How to Use (and Abuse) The Language of Football – to receive on the night.
"Adam Hurrey is the best observer of football culture in the world. He has a knack for either encapsulating something that's always nagged at you or nailing something you can't believe you haven't noticed before." – Elis James
