The World Cup of Barclaysmen
You’re watching the free group stages, Groups A–D. The full tournament is on Patreon and Spotify.
We're going back to a golden era of the Premier League, when football felt different and every club seemed to have a player who became a cult hero simply by existing. Welcome to The World Cup of Barclaysmen . Alright Fans and Crazy Ginger Cabbie begin the search for the ultimate Barclaysman, with Laurent Robert, Rory Delap, Youri Djorkaeff, Mark Viduka, Kanu, Tim Cahill, Yakubu, Bobby Zamora and loads more entering the tournament. We're talking long-range screamers, long throws, proper number nines, cult heroes, iconic shirts and the sort of players whose names immediately transport you back to a Saturday afternoon in the 2000s. This free episode features Groups A–D as the first contenders battle for their places in the next stage. Who represents the Barclays era better than anybody else? 🔒 FINISH THE TOURNAMENT
