FC Romania: The Power of Mutu (Who Do?) Artwork

20,000 Leagues (Under Tier Three)

A podcast about two guys exploring the lower league football community. From Biggleswade Town to Biggleswade United, we'll go to every team from around the world and tell you all about it. Really slowly. Each week there will be: A quiz! - Tangents! - Facts! - Interviews! (maybe) Plus there's jokes too. Like the joke about the baby balloon. So why not join us on our tour? It's the perfect way to wind down after a game of semi-professional football.

FC Romania: The Power of Mutu (Who Do?)

FC Romania vs Barking (21/9/2019)

Bine ati venit!

First, I'd like to start with an apology. During the quiz in this episode, I boast about my question writing abilities due to a 'clever' ham-related reference. Unfortunately, this was incorrect. There is no Sorrento ham. Instead, obviously, it is Serrano ham. This was an extremely foolish mistake that I would not normally make, and I presume was a punishment forced upon me by some form of deity due to my audacious boasting. I will try to learn from this setback and pick and choose my boasting more carefully in future.

(Also, apologies for how late this episode is)

Apart from that abomination (which I trust we can now leave behind us), this episode covers the joys of seeing FC Romania at Theobalds Lane (home of Cheshunt FC) - a stadium that has an absolutely beautiful concrete stand.

We also cover:

- Discussion of Romanian football
- An explanation of how PO Boxes work
- Whether it is harder to score a free kick under or over a wall
- A special edition burger

Plus jam-making tips.

Se bucura!
