Hello, we're Cafe Calcio, AND WE ARE BACK! No, not the awesome cafe on the Crwys Road in Cardiff, but three guys (Chris Dixon, David Stubbs and Chris Roberts) based in London who make a show for http://soundcloud.com/resonance-fm discussing football in the cultural context. It's all a bit of a laugh…
And this is part two of our travelling fans special. Kevin Miles, CEO of @The_FSF has run England Fan Embassies going all the way back to Italia 90, we talk to him about his work, the aims, benefits and logistics of this grand endeavour, put together to serve the travelling fan abroad. We also chat to committed #MUFC Steve Armstrong @sarm0161 (who also writes for the long running United We Stand fanzine) about the privilege of following Utd around not just Europe, but all over the world. A journey that first began in Eindhoven in 1984… ...when he was 13. Presented by @_ChrisDixon_ @OneEyeGrey and @sendvictorious
This is the first of two parts concerning football and the travelling fan. @OneEyeGrey went to #Wolfsburg to see #EFC in the Europa League tie, so we followed him on his journey (well, we called him from the studio) to see what was going on… … and as our second guest pulled out, @sendvictorious and @_ChrisDixon_ filled for time as best they could. We did well. Top work it was.
Jose Mourinho post QPR at home suggested unequivocally, that Chelsea’s home support for a Derby game simply wasn’t loud enough. Was he right?Probably, yes. Atmosphere at Stamford Bridge, like many top level stadia has taken a hit for a number of factors. In this episode we explore those factors, the reasons for them and the changes that need to happen to stop the slide. Featuring City AM Edtior David Hellier @hellierd and @DavidChidgey of the Chelsea Fancast #CFC Presented by @_ChrisDixon_ @OneEyeGrey and @FSF_FairCop
