Explore every episode of the podcast The Scarf Bergara Wore

Russ, Waggie and fan guest Worsley are your panel this week.

Two wins on the bounce for the first time this season, with Ozzy and Ollie both topping the chances-created charts. Are things starting to click for County?

We got stuck into the Academy's Cheshire Senior Cup win at Sandbach, the wider questions around football's financial future and whether County would survive if Mark Stott pulled the plug.

Could Dave Conlon's move to Hartlepool also put some of our younger players on their radar, including Rydel and Mingi?

As always, there was plenty more to get into, with County chat, opinions and your thoughts on what's happening at Edgeley Park.

🎙️ Welcome back to the award-winning The Scarf Bergara Wore – the original Stockport County fan podcast! ⚪️💙

⚽ STOCKPORT COUNTY 3–1 BARNSLEY | MATCH REACTION

BACK-TO-BACK LEAGUE WINS FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS SEASON! ⚪️💙

County make it two league wins on the bounce for the first time this season with a 3–1 victory over Barnsley at Edgeley Park – but they certainly didn't make it easy for themselves!

After a frustrating opening 45 minutes in which County never really got going, they found a way to turn things around and secure another valuable three points.

Dan, Steve and Rolo are back for Sunday's Match Reaction Show, with Liam Root popping his head in for a quick appearance!

The lads will pick through a game of two halves, discuss what changed and ask whether County are finally starting to build some real momentum.

Why did County struggle in the first half? What made the difference after the break? Who impressed? And could these back-to-back victories be the start of something?

With two wins from two in this run of three consecutive home league fixtures, can County make it a clean sweep?

💬 WHAT DID YOU MAKE OF COUNTY 3–1 BARNSLEY?

Get involved in the LIVE chat, send us your questions and let us know your verdict on another three points at Edgeley Park.

🔵 THE MATCH REACTION SHOW – LIVE SUNDAY AT 7PM

Join Dan, Steve and Rolo LIVE from 7pm, with a brief appearance from Liam Root, as we dissect the win over Barnsley and talk all things County. ⚪️💙

🎙️ Welcome back to the award-winning The Scarf Bergara Wore – the original Stockport County fan podcast! ⚪️💙

Russ and Waggie are joined by regular fan guest Wrighty to talk through all things County, with a little England chat thrown in for good measure. Then we get straight into it…

County have been charged by the FA under Rule E21 following the pitch invasion during the second leg of last season’s playoff game against Stevenage. But what does that actually mean? We read out the charge from the FA and discuss why we’ve been charged for this one when we’ve had plenty of other pitch invasions over the years during times of absolute joy. What could it mean for the club, and just how big a fine do we think County could potentially be facing?

We then turn our attention to Shrewsbury 0-2 County in the EFL Trophy. There were 10 changes from the last league game, with a ‘second string’ County side taking on a similarly rotated Shrewsbury team. Seven academy players featured, so we talk through their performances, the standout players and the continued signs of McNulty Ball. It was also great to see Adigun and Gardner get themselves on the scoresheet. We also discuss the surprising additions of Rydel and Mingi to the substitutes’ bench and use County Squad Tracker to try and clear up exactly why they were there!

County Women smashed Bradford 8-0, another huge win against a side who started the game on the same number of points. We look at the result, the teams around them in the division and how the County Women now find themselves sitting 4th in the league.

So, why are County being tipped as promotion favourites? Most of the bookies now have us as favourites to win the league, having been around 7/8 before the start of the season. What’s changed? Why are the bookies suddenly so convinced? All three of us give our thoughts on where we think County will finish and why it is in the Top 2!

We then look ahead to Barnsley and have a discussion based around Steve’s Preview Pod about what we can expect from a young Barnsley side, how they are likely to play and how County can get around them. Of course, we also give our own score predictions, along with plenty of predictions and opinions from those tuned in.

We have another go at Rival until we get some better suggestions, the football app that gives us a random historic game involving County. This time it’s Barnet at home in 2006. We’re going a bit further back again for our little minds, although Russ is once again on hand with some clues from the County Archive to try and help us along and we’ve got a Gazendo in the comments! Can you remember the score, the line-up and the goalscorers?

And finally, some massive news…

🎙️ Welcome back to the award-winning The Scarf Bergara Wore – the original Stockport County fan podcast! ⚪️💙

Russ and Waggie are joined by Fan Debutant Nick Dux from the North County Boy Podcast. We put Nick through his debut questions, and there are some very interesting choices in there! We also give him the chance to tell us all about his podcast, what it’s about and how he came up with the idea.

We jump straight into the nitty gritty and, rather than just talking about the narrow 1-0 win over ‘The Posh’, we ask the big question… are we on for promotion? Waggie is, as always, firmly aboard the Positivity Train, Nick is trying to convince himself to jump on, and surprisingly, Russ has already got an early ticket! We also discuss whether Jim McNulty has a Plan B, is he still working it out, or whether we just stick with McNulty Ball and let everyone else worry about how to stop us!

We have a Player Watch, with a round-up of Allen getting himself a decent goal for Barrow, Andresson scoring for Iceland U21s and Whatmuff picking up an assist for England U20s. We also tip our hats to County Women, who produced a spectacular fourth goal in a nine-goal thriller against Derby Women.

County are opening a new store in Merseyway, right at the front of the A6 bus stops. We discuss what this says about the club’s progression and the potential to generate more revenue while also getting the County name and brand in front of plenty of passing fans and shoppers.

Sam Byrne had a great chat with Jonathan Smith, Head of Recruitment, before the Posh game and subsequently released the conversation on X. We have a good discussion around that and some very interesting points raised in the article. We won’t spoil it for you, though — go and have a read for yourselves: https://x.com/_SByrne/status/2104225625611419897?s=20

Finally, we have another go at Rival, the football app that gives us a random historic game involving County. This time it’s Posh away in 2006. Not exactly the best memory for this one, although Russ is on hand with some clues to try and help us along. Can you remember the score, the line-up and the goalscorers?

⚽ STOCKPORT COUNTY 1–0 PETERBOROUGH UNITED | MATCH REACTION

Not at our best… but THREE POINTS!

⚪️💙 County kick off their run of three consecutive league games at Edgeley Park with a 1–0 win over Peterborough United – despite never really getting going.

Jimmy, Dan, Steve and Dave are back on Sunday night to pick through a game that might not live long in the memory, but still ends with another valuable three points for County.

Was it simply a case of winning ugly? Why did County struggle to find their rhythm? Who stood out? And is getting the job done when you’re not at your best the sign of a good side? We’ll break down the performance, the key moments, the big decisions and everything else that came out of Saturday’s victory. And with two more league games at Edgeley Park to come, can County now make the most of this run of home fixtures?

💬 WHAT DID YOU MAKE OF COUNTY 1–0 PETERBOROUGH?

🎙️ Welcome back to the award-winning The Scarf Bergara Wore – the original Stockport County fan podcast! ⚪️💙

Russ is back in the hot seat once more, joined as always by Waggie, and this week we’re joined by Steve from NK Electricals, regular match-ball sponsor and County’s 'Electrician'

As always, we’ve got plenty to talk about, starting with the nil-nil draw away at Sheffield Wednesday. With Russ watching from the ground, Waggie and Steve watching on the telebox, we get the 2 different views of the game. Was it a good point or two points dropped? A clean sheet is always welcome, and with County having three times as many shots as Wednesday (18 to 6), with both sides only managed two on target, is this another game we should have won? Or is that particular saying starting to get a little tired? We also look at how we’d feel if the season continues with the win-loss-win-loss pattern, with the occasional draw thrown in. What needs to change for us to become more consistent?

We also discuss a great full debut for Jobe, who came into the side for a poorly Pye. Does he stay in or not?

We then look ahead to the first of three straight home games, with Peterborough the visitors to Edgeley Park. Russ is apprehensive after Peterborough sacked their manager and could potentially have an 18-year-old centre-back and a 16-year-old centre-back playing, while Waggie is, obviously, positive about the result. Steve sits somewhere in the middle, so we’ve got all bases covered!

We also have a chat about matchday rituals and discover just how different Steve’s is to Russ and Waggie's. Working on matchdays means Steve is around the ground roughly four hours before kick-off, giving him a very different experience and a lot more checks to complete with everything becoming increasingly digital, some interesting details in there as well.

The international break is officially upon us, and County have two call-ups (Whatmuff and Andresson), although only Whatmuff counts towards a match suspension. Luca Ashby-Hammond looking set to step in as his replacement. What do you make of the situation, County fans? We all give our thoughts.

We also have an impromptu history lesson around our anthem and the inspiration behind the podcast name, ‘The Scarf My Father Wore’. Where did it come from? How did it come about? And some other interesting facts behind County’s most recognisable song? We touch on the correct lyrics and what is sang by most, so have a listen and repeat before Saturday!

Finally, we have another go at Rival, the football app that gives us a random historic game involving County’s next opponents. This time it’s Wrexham at home in 2023. I’m sure most of us remember this one, but can you remember the score, the line-up and the goalscorers?

How well do we really know our County history? There’s only one way to find out…

Waggie is in the hot seat this week with Russ away, meaning Steve gets to monopolise all the pods! We’re also joined by fan debutant (sort of) Shazz, aka Paul from Stockport Gin.

There’s plenty to get stuck into after the brilliant, chaotic 3–4 defeat to Leicester. We talk about the obvious concern at the back and whether conceding so many goals is becoming a problem, but also the other side of the equation — McNulty Ball has County looking like they can score every time they go forward. Can we really keep playing with that style and intensity for the whole season?

We then look ahead to Saturday’s trip to Sheffield Wednesday. Can County bounce back? What have we made of Wednesday’s start to the season, how do we beat them and should Dave Challinor make changes or stick with what we know?

After eight games, County sit on four wins and four defeats, with 16 goals scored and 10 conceded. We take a quick look at what those numbers tell us and ask whether County need to find a bit more consistency — and, most importantly, how we tighten things up without losing the attacking threat.

There’s also a brief discussion about the competition formerly known as the Vertu Trophy, which has apparently been renamed. We’re calling it the Magic Mike Trophy. Obviously.

With the international break approaching, we also discuss who might get called up, whether international selections could lead to games being postponed and whether County might actually get a weekend off.

Finally, we have another go at Rival, the football app that gives us a random historic game involving County’s next opponents. This time it’s MK Dons away in 2023, with three rounds to tackle: guess the score, name the line-up and guess the goalscorers. Three lives. No excuses.

How well do we really know our County history?

Russ and Waggie are away with work, so Jimmy and Toby have been handed the keys to the Wednesday night show! 😬⚪️💙

Joining them this week was County fan Stephen Wright (Wrighty) as the lads got stuck into all the latest goings-on at Stockport County.

After that emphatic 4–0 win away at Wigan Athletic, attention turns to a huge Saturday at Edgeley Park as County welcome former Premier League champions Leicester City.

In this episode:

🎩 Wigan and how it went so well for a rampant Stockport County side. Which was the best goal of the lot?

🎩 The first 5 games and where that leaves is currently in the table and as a team.

🎩 Leicester coming to town on Saturday with Jimmy confident of a 3-0 win.

🎩 EFL squad lists announced ... any surprises for County?

🎩 We debate whether we are light in midfield or not.

🎩 The Hosk leaves the building with all our best wishes.

🎩 The next 5 games ... points predictions.

🎩 Car crash "guess who I am" quiz where 4 of the 5 rounds went well, less said about one of the rounds the better as Jimmy makes a booboo!

Another El-Hattico defeat… and we’re still waiting for County to beat Luton Town again!

Russ and Waggie are joined by Dan from Hatters Union to look back on another frustrating defeat to the Hatters’ rivals.

We discuss County’s failure to convert chances, the wing-back selection, and whether Diamond is getting a little too close to defenders for comfort.

But there’s no time to dwell, with Wigan Athletic up next. We look ahead to the weekend and ask which County players have been our outstanding performers after the opening four games of the season.

We’re also joined by Dan for an update on Hatters Union, finding out what’s been happening and what’s coming next.

And, of course, it wouldn’t be a TSBW show without the Rival Quiz — this week, we’re going back to 2023 and testing the lads on all things Wigan!

In this episode:

⚽ Another El-Hattico defeat

🔴 Why aren't County converting their chances?

🪽 Wing-back selection choices

👀 Is Diamond getting too close to defenders?

📈 County's outstanding performers after four games

🔵 Looking ahead to Wigan Athletic

🎙️ An update from Hatters Union

In this episode of The Scarf Bergara Wore, Steve is joined by Barry from Progress With Unity to preview Stockport County’s League One away trip to face Wigan Athletic at The Brick Community Stadium.

The Dark Days are beginning to give way to something different.

We pick up the story at the start of the 2016 season, as County beat Alfreton Town 4-3 on the opening day. Sponsors are beginning to return, there are signs of life around Edgeley Park and, slowly, things are starting to feel a little more like a football club again.

But it’s still far from rosy.

Russ, Simon and Phil spend more than an hour charting the next chapter of County’s turbulent story – from Life Presidents and Manchester City holding events at Edgeley Park, to a young Mo Salah, Gabriel Jesus and Sergio Aguero making an appearance in the County story.

We talk about the buckets for Jim’s player fund, the people who helped keep County moving forward, and ultimately what it actually means to be Stockport County.

The Dark Days series continues – but perhaps, finally, there really is some light at the end of the tunnel.

Blackpool Bump | Back Down to Earth? 🔵⚪️

We’re talking about County’s home defeat to Blackpool - a game where dominance did not result in 3 points.

We also discuss the controversial new dugouts and TV gantry installed over the summer and the effects they have had on supporters' views in 2 stands, as well as the appointment of Gavin Bailey as CEO, a look ahead to Wycombe at the weekend and general transfer chat.

Plus, we put our County knowledge to the test with the Rival football app. Can we guess the scores, complete the line-ups and name the goal scorers? (I'll give you a spoiler ... it was really hard this week!)

🎙️ Welcome Back to This Week’s Award-Winning Podcast!

🎙️ Waggie is in the host’s chair and Andy is in 2nd chair! Maybe not Russ’s best decision ever… only you can tell us! 😂

We’re BACK for the new season and we’re all hyped up… well, maybe slightly less hyped after Saturday’s result!

We’re joined this week by fan guest Daniel Davies for his third appearance — match ball in the post, honest! 😂

No debut questions, so we get straight into the action…

⚽️ County 1–1 Doncaster — Loss on Penalties

• Promising shoots or a lacklustre performance?
• The inverted wing-backs — did they work?
• Did we do enough to win the game?
• And what did we make of the overall performance?

🔮 Jimmy McNulty

Our first proper look at the new manager — what are our initial impressions?

Have we noticed a difference around the club already, and what are we expecting from McNulty?

🏟️ Mark Stott Interview

What were our overall impressions and key takeaways from Stott’s latest interview?

He looks completely re-energised and ready to go again — but what does that mean for the club moving forward?

🔄 Dodgson Out — Wilson Brown In

Dodgson was only on a 12-month contract and has now been loaned straight out.

Is Wilson Brown potentially the replacement for Pye? What can we expect from him?

📅 Luton Fixture Change

The Luton game has moved from Tuesday to Wednesday night.

What does that mean for travelling fans — and why have six League One fixtures been affected by Carabao Cup games?

👕 3rd Kit Launch

The wording of the initial email, the kit itself and the launch video — there are certainly split opinions on this one!

🚌 Plymouth Away — First League Game of the Season

Our hopes, expectations and, of course, the logistics of getting down there for the first league game of the season.

Yep, you read that correctly.

No RSOTW this season!

…Although, judging by how much we all love it, do you actually want it back? 🤔

Instead, Andy has introduced his new end-of-show spectacular:

The Quiz Nobody Asked For.

Andy has put together a mixture of general knowledge and football questions, with Waggie going head-to-head against our fan guest Daniel.

And because apparently a simple quiz wasn't enough…

📊 Andy is creating a league table!

So let’s see how this goes… 😂

Part Two of our 2026/27 Stockport County squad deep dive is here.

Having covered the goalkeepers and defenders in Part One, we now turn our attention to the midfielders and forwards.

The TSBW team go player-by-player through the rest of the current squad and give their thoughts on the players, their expectations for the season and who they think could make the biggest impact.

Who do we rate? Who needs to step up? Who could surprise us? And where do we still have questions?

As ever, there’s plenty of debate and plenty of laughs along the way.

This is our take on the Stockport County squad as the new season gets underway.

The first full TSBW podcast of the 2026/27 season is here!

We kick off the new season with Part One of our big squad deep dive, starting with the Fans Forum, our first impressions of new manager Jim McNulty, and then a player-by-player look at the current squad.

We were there for the Fans Forum, so we recap the key talking points and discuss our thoughts on McNulty and the new era at Stockport County.

Then we get stuck into the squad — and there are plenty of opinions!

Part One covers the goalkeepers and defenders, with plenty of debate, disagreement and, naturally, a fair amount of nonsense and laughs along the way.

Part Two will continue our look through the squad.

What do you think of McNulty? Which defenders are you backing this season? And who needs to step up?

The end of an era.

We sat down with Ben Hinchliffe in front of a live audience at The VITA Bar as he prepares to leave Stockport County after an incredible ten-year spell at Edgeley Park and begin the next chapter of his career.

This isn't a podcast about appearances, clean sheets or league titles – although there are plenty of those. Instead, it's a chance to get to know the man behind the gloves.

From goalkeeping techniques, mindset and bouncing back from mistakes, to dressing-room stories, favourite memories and some of the more important questions in life... Sunday roast or chippy tea?

It's funny, reflective, emotional and, at times, genuinely moving. There were plenty of laughs along the way, but also more than a few watery eyes in the room.

Whether you've watched Ben from National League North to League One, or simply want to hear from one of the most important figures in County's modern history, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

Enjoy.

🎙️ Welcome back to the Award Winning The Scarf Bergara Wore – the original Stockport County fan podcast.

In this 40th and final reaction show of the season the guys go over the final at Wembley against Bolton and are wondering if the Wembley cleaner found any County players hiding in the changing rooms after they failed to reappear for the 2nd half?

Was VAR correct? and was Bolton that good in the 2nd half or County that poor?

In this high-stakes edition of The Scarf Bergara Wore, host Steve is joined by Dan from the Bolton Fanzone Podcast for an all-North-West battle royale to preview Sunday’s massive League One Play-Off Final at Wembley. With a coveted ticket to the Championship on the line, we lift the hood on both camps to dissect everything from the frantic local ticket scramble and brutal dawn travel logistics to the massive tactical talking points shaping the match. We dig into the major injury concerns surrounding Bolton skipper Eoin Toal, how the Wembley pitch alters both sides' styles, and how the opposition views County from the outside looking in. Turn it up as we debate squad depth and lock in our definitive score predictions ahead of Sunday's monumental clash.

🎙️ Welcome to This Week’s Award-Winning Podcast!

🎙️ It’s just Russ, Waggie, and Andy this week — no guest, just the three of us chewing the fat over all things County and Play-offs…

🔍 We Dive Into:

⚽️ County 2–0 Stevenage

A very comfortable home win securing a 3–0 aggregate victory and a trip to the Playoff Final.

• Were we confident before the game?
• Were Stevenage below par, or were we just that good we made them look average?
• How comfortable did we look from kick-off, and did the early goal settle everything?
• First time this season we’ve named the same starting XI for 3 consecutive games — is consistency making the difference in the playoffs?

🔥 Barry & Woots

How good were these two?!

Both goals were sublime — should Wootton get credit for the outrageous effort/goal, and why can nobody stop the Barry cut-inside finish?

🎶 Pre-Match Atmosphere

• Thoughts on the fan march organised by the Hatters Union
• What did we make of the DJ pitch-side before kick-off?

🏟️ Pitch Invasion

Was it warranted considering we’ve not actually won anything yet?

And what did we think of the incident involving a fan and the Stevenage keeper?

🎟️ On to Wemb-er-lee!

Who would we rather face and why?

Plus — what do we think about the ticket price increases compared to the Vertu Trophy Final?

🎤 Random Sh*t of the Week

Waggie takes the mantle this week and, as always, is completely unprepared after still celebrating last night’s victory 😅

Nothing playoff-related this time — just a good old-fashioned Player Name Anagram Quiz.

Can you guess the County players from a random mix-up of the letters in their names?

🎙️ Welcome to This Week’s Award-Winning Podcast!

🎙️ Russ, Waggie, and Andy are joined by super fan guest — the one and only Daz Sampson. After a quick intro, we get straight into the action…

⚽️ County 3–1 Barnsley Away win to secure the Playoffs.

• Were we ever worried?
• How good does it feel to secure 3rd?
• No Diamond or Bate in the squad

🔮 Playoff Preview

We look ahead to the playoffs.

Do we fancy it against Stevenage, and what are we expecting over the two legs?

🧠 Simon Wilson “Leaving” (Sort Of)

Our thoughts on the announcement — concern, confidence, or somewhere in between?

What does it mean for both him and the club moving forward?

🔄 County Rumours

Silly season has started early — transfers, whispers, and general murmurings from around the club.

All taken with a healthy pinch of salt…

🎤 Random Sh*t of the Week

Andy’s back in charge with a very rushed (5 minutes before the show!) Playoff Special Quiz 😅

“County v Stevenage”

Categories include:

• Squad/Staff (Hangman style)
• Guess the Stat
• General Questions

You definitely don’t want to miss this… it’s not the usual chaos, actually it is more than usual and dubbed by our sponsor 'Random Sh*t Show of the Week'…you decide! 👀

In this high-stakes episode of Scarf Bergara Wore, Steve is joined by Matt Farley from the Stevenage FC Podcast to preview a monumental League One Play-Off Semi-Final. Following a dramatic final day that saw the Hatters clinch third place, we dive into the emotional "pulse check" of both fanbases as they oscillate between Wembley dreams and play-off dread. We break down the tactical battle, identify the "big game players" who could decide the tie, and analyze the momentum of the final sprint that brought these two sides together. From the hostile atmosphere of the Lamex to a potentially historic night under the lights at Edgeley Park, we look at the fine margins as the road to the Arch begins.

🎙️ Welcome to This Week’s Award-Winning Podcast!

🎙️ Russ, Waggie, and Andy are joined this week by fan guest Paul Milligan for his third appearance — so no debut questions, straight into the action.

⚽️ County 1–2 Port Vale Home Loss

How did we go from Saturday’s performance to that?

• What didn’t we get right?
• How deflating did it feel?
• Questions around player attitudes, tracking back, winning 50/50's.
• We also touch on post-match interviews from Challinor and Norwood.

🔮 Looking Ahead to Barnsley (A)

We preview Saturday’s game and run through the play-off permutations… and heaven forbid if we don’t make it.

🏟️ Steward ‘Gate’ Fiasco

Why weren’t the gates opened? Half the concourse missing at half-time, and are stewards becoming too heavy-handed around the ground?

🏆 County Women

A big shout-out and congratulations to the County Women’s team for winning their third consecutive Cheshire Cup 👏

🎤 Random Sh*t of the Week

Russ takes the reins this week with the topic:

“Things in football that are quietly dying…”

We discuss:

• Proper tackles
• Match programmes
• Physical tickets
• 3pm kick-offs

Then we put a live vote to three panel suggestions:

• Team/Player rivalries
• Legacy fans
• Taking goal kicks from the correct side

Get your votes in and drop your suggestions in the comments — we might revisit this one!

As the grueling 46-game League One campaign reaches its crescendo, Steve is joined by Andy from Red All Over to break down a massive final-day clash between Barnsley and Stockport County. We dive into the tactical nuances of a fixture that ended in a stalemate back in December. We tackle the big questions surrounding the Tykes: Why is Conor Hourihane departing, and who is tipped to take the reins next? From the impact of David Keillor-Dunn’s exit to the looming threat of David McGoldrick, we analyse whether County will make the play offs.

🎙️ Welcome to This Week’s Award-Winning Podcast!

🎙️ Russ, Waggie, and Andy are joined this week by TSBW's very own Blogger John Bilsbury — no messing about, straight into the action…

⚽️ County 0–1 Mansfield Home Loss

We got Cloughied again at home, despite the hope from our earlier win at their place this season.

Did we play well enough to win? How much did the subs make an impact?

We also discuss the random chants from fans in tough situations.

The standout performances from Addai and Mothersille, and special mention to Grogan on his EFL debut.

What’s next for Grogan and Wootts going forward?

Are we limping into the playoffs, or do we still have enough to make it comfortably?

⚽️ Ticket Pricing Discussion

Is £14.50 for a 16-year-old and £28 for an adult too much for County or a League 1 club?

We discuss the pricing and what impact it has on fans and the club.

From tickets to food, beverages, travel — we talk about and dread trying to work out the full cost of following County for a season and whether it’s sustainable for the average fan.

Apparently, 127 hardcore legends made all three games, and they’ll be getting a pitch appearance after the game.

Special shout-out to our very own JKB who got an invite (although he’s not going on the pitch!).

Waggie’s back in the hot seat with another very quickly put together (about 10 minutes before the show) magnificent Top 10 Comparison List 😅

Manager Win Percentage Quiz

We’ve got a random top 10 of managers’ win percentages, and you’ve got to guess whether the next manager has a better win percentage than the previous one.
