    I miss Martin
    I love ya Phil, but the dynamic hasn’t been the same for the United pods with the new guy. All the best.
  • Asouth89
    Must listen MUFC podcast
    Phil and Martin are phenomenal at being an objective voice of Manchester United fans. They criticize when necessary, they praise when necessary, and always talk sense. If you are looking for two guys that are respectable and sensible about all things Manchester United, give this a listen!

    Top show!
    Great show! A must listen for united supporters
  • joeestrada
    MUFC Pod that’s completely objective
    Phil & Martin are extremely connected to the club while living thousands of miles away from Manchester. Both are life long supporters who provide honest & transparent feedback on all aspects of the club. This is a MUST listen pod for any Manchester United supporter.

    Problems downloading
    I love the show but always have problems downloading it to my iPhone. I'm subscribed to both podcast on my Mac but it doesn't allow me to download it directly to my phone. The year of the new episodes also appear as 2000.

    Best football show in US
    Best football show period. Covers all the games and action on and off the pitch. Phil is hilarious! BTP is very knowledgeable and insightful about the beautiful game. Big time guests and names in the sport are always on the show. Great for transfer news

    Great to hear this discussion with Coach Reed. He gets it! Youth sports is an awesome place for kids to learn important life-impacting lessons!

    Good tactics soccer podcast
    I really like this podcast, although sometimes they go deeper into tactics than I need. They do cool reviews of games which I enjoy, but sometimes the preview of games could be shorter. A have must if you are an American soccer fan. But pretty deep, I'm a fan, but not always that much of a fan. But give it a try for sure.

    A treat every week
    Great guests and very conscientious and high level discussions. I'm am new to the sport and the wisdom and topics really helps me round out my understanding of the game.
  • BTP Lover
    Amazing Show
    Want the most diverse football show around? This is the one, even though they've cut back since moving to SiriusXM in the US. That alone should tell you just how exceptional these two guys are. The new One World show with Anto is just plain sick good, ultra produced and filled with guests who are worth the listen at every point and click. Loads of pretenders out there, but this Anto guy is a monster, especially when he sharpens his sword for the dirt balls and corruption in the sport. Nobody knows that part of the game like him. There are presenters, and then there are real personalities that cut through the rubbish out there. Look no further than some of the amazing shows they've done with Tom Byer, the Brazil and numerous FIFA crisis flashpoints. Staggering information, resourced and smart delivery.

    Great all-around podcast
    What I love about Beyond the Pitch is that it covers a wide variety of topics. Like the name says it's beyond the pitch and simple goals or wins and losses, it covers the economics of football, what's happening in places that don't get attention like asia or africa and serves as a moral compass of sorts when dealing with issues like the Football's Lost Boys, the corruption of FIFA, etc. And lastly I have to say how much Anto impresses me as host, he is the straw that stirs the drink. He is very knowledgeable has a very distinct voice and has a way of really getting to the heart of a topic.
  • Mr. Famous FC
    Interesting Information
    There is no soccer podcast like this one. The guys always have an interesting topic and a well respected guest to create a show that is well worth listening to. If you are a soccer fan this podcast should be on your iPod.
  • jwbussmann
    Abrasive, Know-it-all Host
    I have tried honestly on several occasions to listen to this podcast with an open mind. I cannot get into their show. The glaring defect is the host Anto. Loud, abrasive, Mr. Know-it-all. He doesn't ask questions of the invited guests. He just goes off on a long-winded lecture (often times, wrongheaded). I listen to almost a dozen footie pods on a regular basis; this one is really below average and not worth your time.
  • Hose*B
    The Most Important Football Podcast
    This podcast impresses me on a regular basis. Anto and Phil are unmatched in the podcast world in their overall understanding of football on and off the pitch. I have been introduced to aspects of football that I would have never known existed. Many of the episodes have the feel of a documentary with months of preparation. If you want to increase your football knowledge and appreciation, this is what you want to listen to.
  • Houston Socer
    Good concept, but two problems
    First, the audio quality is painful. It's in a high-pitched, metallic audio. Second, the host needs to stop making long, loud speeches. Just ask the guest a question. The host's lead-up to questions are way too long.
  • sounders fan
    A must listen
    I love this podcast. They cover many different topics with great guests.
  • Savage Neck
    Great Podcast/poor production
    I won't argue that this Podcast is incredible when it comes the guests they bring on, and the depth of conversation. That being said, it's been really hard for me to get over just how bad the audio is. I have to turn the volume up incredibly loud just to hear the people that they're interviewing, and even then it's still pretty hard to hear what these guys are saying, you really have to concentrate.
  • knabelism
    This is a really great podcast.
    It's very informative and the analysis of each player, club, fixture, and competition is always complete and insightful. A must listen
  • Eric267744
    Good pod, but...
    I can't stand Warren Barton. He puts about as much effort into his analysis as Andrei Arshavin puts into backtracking. Avoid the 'prime time football' episodes but the rest should be good and worth your time...
  • Hannah Brown :)
    Awesome show
    best futbol podcast ever :)
  • CFCsupporter
    Amazing
    I look forward to the constant stream of podcasts that seem to pop up at warp speed. My sole focus is on the EPL and LA LIGA, so it is nice to get a compact version of global events. The guests are amazing and super knowledgable. I love how their is a central theme to each show. Keep up the good work. Cheers!
  • Matteo Bonetti
    Best Soccer Pod in the World
    Beyond the Pitch is lightyears ahead of their competition. I've listened to most of their pods from the start and I have no doubts that BTP is unrivaled in terms of the quality of their guests, and hosts. Recommend subscribing to anybody who loves the great sport of football.
  • Sacman877
    A must-have
    I love the creative angle these guys took with their aptly named podcast. Rather than tread over the surface of football with stats and scores, these guys dig deeper and cover what's going behind the scenes to give you a 360 view of the league. Keep it up guys.
  • Sakinure
    podcast
    Great podcast each week and they just barly started. I can remember Rio ferdinand the England captain, Michael essien, Vinnie jones and alot more cool guests that are very interesting and it's free so what more do you want? And I know they have Peter Schmichel coming up as well. Phil and Anthony have a good vibe love the podcast.
  • Mr_YUNique
    Among the very best football podcasts
    Beyond the Pitch first drew my attention with its unparalleled list of guests: Rio Ferdinand, Michael Essien, and Henrik Larsson (just to name a few), and I've been a loyal listener since. But as the name says, the podcast also goes beyond the pitch and covers off-the-field personalities like Declan Hill and the Swiss Rambler. Beyond the Pitch is quality from top to bottom. Kudos!
  • ClaptonsGod
    Great show
    I absolutely love this podcast. Great insight and the hosts are great. There are constantly great guests on hand and you can tell how passionate the hosts and the guests are about the game. Amazing job you guys keep it up.
  • Christy Ring
    Fantastic Listen
    Beyond the Pitch is a great listen - really interesting and varied content and the hosts are so enthusiastic. Don't miss it!!!
  • vlodko62
    Tops in the league(s)
    Simply put, this is the best, most informative overall podcast on football (soccer) I've found. Heads above anything else.
  • allegrabene
    this podcast will teach you something
    I'm in the car all day and listen to a dozen football podcasts. the only one where i consistently learn something from is this one. the fact that these guys only have 17 podcasts up is impressive. henrik larsson, guiseppe rossi, st. pauli fc, joe gaetjens, bill mcmurdo; all topics and characters that other podcasts don't seem to feel are relevant. to this podcasts credit, they cover them and cover them in a way that is educational and credible. they also have on the names you'll see on other podcasts: marcotti, lowe and it's packaged in small snipppets not watered down with filler conversation and vapid opinions from clueless callers. not that there's anything wrong with that. keep up the good work boys

    Great Podcast!
    This is a great podcast! It is a must listen for football/soccer fans. The hosts are brilliant and ask great questions. I've enjoyed listening to the wonderful guests and look forward to each show.
  • sportsfan8475
    Beyond any other podcast or show!
    Great content - excellent questions - diverse in who they interview....meant for any fan at any level. If you love soccer/football, you should listen!
  • Cheeko22
    Great podcast!!!
    This is a great podcast- they have some great guests! Been listening for awhile!
  • Bubba Binst
    Great Show
    From the days of Red Devil Radio to this quite a remarkable improvement. The Yank also knows his stuff.
  • rlisu
    Superb!!!
    Not your everyday podcast. It goes where most don't venture. You get interviews with great current and former players and football people who work behind the scenes, as well as journalists like Sid Lowe. The hosts are great interviewers and ask tough and intelligent questions. The show is fresh and definately something for everyone. If you enjoy football/soccer and want more than your weekly match analysis, then definately try this. Audio was poorish in early shows, but improving every week. Love this show.
  • Champions08
    Great Show...
