f you enjoy this podcast and think that what I do fills a gap in soccer coverage that others would be interested in as well, please

  • Recommend The Assistant Professor of Football. Spreading the word, through word of mouth, truly does help.
  • Leave some rating stars at the podcast platform of your choice. There are so many sports podcasts out there, and only ratings make this project visible; only then can people who look for a different kind of take on European soccer actually find me.
