Men in Blazers With Ian Darke

It hasn’t been the finest vintage, this Premier League season. But most football fans agree, they will drink anything if the price is right. Chelsea, Arsenal, and Tottenham all got what they needed over the weekend, even if there were a string of rather uninspiring 1-0 victories. In this week’s podcast, the Blazers consider them all, with Michael taking particular glee in Chelsea’s late win at Old Trafford.
The pod then takes a somber tone as ESPN’s Sir Ian Darke joins from the road to reflect on his past three years as the voice of English football in America, while Roger offers a couple of ideas for his farewell sign-off. Until next week. Dominate.
