Welcome to Episode 71 of The Half & Half Scarf Football Podcast with Nick & Dom.

Recorded after Nick returned from nearly a full week's business trip to Las Vegas, we have called this episode "Views, News & Observations From Abroad". That is because most of Nick's contributions came from not sleeping on a 10 hour flight and the excellent wi-fi on Virgin Atlantic allowing him to catch up on a LOT of football in a busy week.

The BIG return game of Man City at Anfield, a three-game week in the Championship and a full tranche of Champion's League and Europa League & Conference games would otherwise have been hard to keep on top of....

So, what do we cover, and fans of which clubs should be particularly engaged in this episode (apart from everyone)……

• A Heartwarming Brentford Story
• Who Is Buying a Leeds v Man Utd Half & Half Scarf?
• Our Helpful Approach to a First Stadium Visit by an Evertonian
• Boro's 150tn Anniversary Celebrations
• Bumping Into Boro Fans on the Las Vegas Strip
• Are Bradford City Bigger & Better Than Preston?
• Burnley - A Year Without a Single Home Win
• Screamers from Henderson & Gilbey
• Who Nick Thinks Is Vastly Overrated?
• Lisandro Martinez Obviously Doesn't Have a Mirror
• Will Gianni Infantino Get Re-Elected in November?

In addition, we have the return of RUSSELL MARTIN WATCH, as well as the RETURNING PLAYER CURSE, whilst Dom has suggested we introduce a third regular feature, and it is a belter.....

As usual, loads of content, loads of thoughts and observations and loads to keep you engaged and entertained - including the odd mad stat!

Please take a little time to listen or watch and see if we are discussing the things that other football fans talk about on their way to games, in the pub on and outside of matchday, on the concourse, or after the match - we think we are and we think you will enjoy the podcast.
