The third “WSOTP Podcast Derby”of the season took place on Sunday, and this time a trophy was on the line between D.J.’s Tottenham and Jeremy’s Chelsea in the Capital One Cup Final. So you can expect that to feature prominently on this week’s Pondcast, alongside the shuffle in and around the Champions League spots that took place […]

WSOTP pod: season 2 episode 27
Back in one location after last week’s remote episode, the latest episode of the Pondcast is a very Euro-centric episode. A dramatic weekend unfolded in the Premier League, at least as far as the refereeing went. There was jostling in the European places and relegation zone that needed to be discussed too, along with the (hilarious) return […]

If you haven’t noticed, things have been pretty busy around these parts lately. Podcats have been coming out rather frequently. There’s been an uptick in original written pieces lately, too. We’ve gotten back into hosting events as well, as was evident with our Derby Saturday watch parties at our favorite soccer bar — Rhinehaus — here in […]
WSOTP pod: season 2 episode 26
Despite suffering numerous technical difficulties this week, surviving a “horrible” snowstorm and seeing confusing midweek English fixtures throwing everyone’s schedules off, the #Pondcast is back this week and better than ever. Not only do the guys discuss the latest Premier League action, FA Cup 6th Round Draw and preview the return of the Champions League, but we […]
WSOTP pod: season 2 episode 25
There was no shortage of tantalizing soccer to enjoy this weekend — both the men’s and women’s national team’s friendlies, the African Nations Cup Final, plus a full round of Premier League action — and the Pondcast team took it all in. The last of those included a pair of derbies, with the second editions of the […]
the reasons for my nightmares
For those who have followed Wrong Side of Pond for any length of time longer than a week or two, you’re probably well aware of my deep love for Tottenham Hotspur Football Club. Longer-time followers are probably also familiar with my obsession with former Lillywhites star and current Real Madrid galáctico Gareth Bale. Admittedly, it was pretty rough watching Bale depart for […]
WSOTP pod: season 2 episode 24
Last week, the guys foolishly took the week off from the #Pondcast as they licked their wounds after seeing both of their sides tumble out of the FA Cup. This week they’re being made to pay for it with a fortnight’s worth of football to cover. So what exactly is on deck for this week? How about a recounting […]

Yes, I’m well aware that things around here have slowed down a bit lately. Posts have dropped off. Our Twitter feed has been relatively quiet. And I’ve not written much elsewhere either. Sorry. But I promise there’s been a lot going on behind the scenes. A considerable amount of my time recently has been poured […]
WSOTP pod: season 2 episode 23
We know this wasn’t the most exciting of Premier League weekends — though we’d expect Arsenal fans might have something different to say about that. Chelsea smashed someone, Villa and QPR continued to stumble, Spurs tripped their way to three points at home, Everton continue to do the opposite of impress and Alan Pardew pulls off another […]
pic of the week 1/12-1/19
This is an actual screenshot of an actual tweet from the actual official Twitter account of Major League Soccer’s Toronto FC sent just one day after the club had shipped AWOL Englishman Jermain Defoe to Sunderland for cash plus Jozy Altidore. In fact, as of publication, this tweet is still somehow live. I totally get […]
