The Beesotted flock (Dave and Katie) assembled at LoveSport central on Monday evening to look back at Saturday’s draw with Hull and ask what we learned from a keenly contested clash between two very decent Championship sides… Bees journo and life-long fan, Jim Levack, joins us to discuss what Thomas Frank had to say after the game, and we also hear the thoughts of both sets of fans after the final whistle.
Ahead of Wednesday night’s match at Elland Road Andrew Dalton, author and editor of LUFC Stats, joins us on the line to give us the inside track on the clash and on what kind of reception he feels Pontus Jansson will receive by the Whites’ faithful… we also discuss whether Griffin Park can be likened to a church, is there a spiritual dimension to our proud old ground?
Oh Christ yeah!
