Top 5 Soccer Podcasts, Websites, Blogs and Twitter Handles
Podcasts:
World Soccer Daily is the best if not one of the best football podcasts in the States. The show, hosted by Steve and Kenny, is completely irreverent, funny and unpredictable. Although the episodes are typically 2 hours long, it’s the best way to understand the intricacies of the game.
This is slowly becoming a favorite for football fans everywhere. The idea is simple: Take the best sound bites from BBC Five Live and combine them into a nightly cast. These episodes are short, ranging from 15-20 minutes, so if you don’t have much time and still want to be current, this is for you!
This Guardian sponsored podcast is not only informative but also funny. James Richardson and Barry Glendenning’s banter is what really attracts people to this show. Topics range from all things EPL, La Liga, Serie A and Bundesliga.
Tired of listening to an ‘expert’ discuss your favorite EPL team? Well you’ll want to download this podcast. Football FanCast is designed to run by the fans, for the fans, allowing them to voice their opinions and concerns.
Hosts Adriano Russo, Jon Harris-Bass and Dan Mason bring together all the info you need to stay up to date with the latest on the ‘Beautiful Game.’ Although the podcast is backed by worldwide TV giant ESPN, it lacks some of the fire or passion offered by the other pods.
Websites/Blogs:
Anymore these days the U.S. is producing top notch talent with the likes of Clint Dempsey, Maurice Edu & Carlos Bocanegra, but it’s hard to keep track of everyone. Yanks-Abroad has info on every American footballer overseas located conveniently on one site.
Christopher Harris (a.k.a. The Gaffer) started this little blog 4 years ago and is now the #1 Premiere League blog on the planet. It’s fun, corky and informative
No list of this kind would be complete without including the World’s governing body of football, Fifa. The website itself is visually pleasing but leaves a bit of a bland taste in your mouth after reading some of the articles.
I.LOVE.FOOTYTUBE. If you don’t have a subscription to Setanta or Sky Sports, Footy provides you with the latest video highlights and all of the goals from the major football leagues.
Channel 4’s official site for everything regarding Serie A.
Twitter Accounts:
Bonus:
Firefox extension that gives you live, up-to-date scores for the day’s matches of all the teams and leagues you decide to follow.
Pretty cool Facebook application that allows you to show your colors, view statistics and discuss the game with others.
