Welcome back to It Was What It Was, the football history podcast. In this second part of our two-part special on football hooliganism, co-hosts Jonathan Wilson and Rob Draper trace the roots of football violence from the 1890s through to its transformation into organised ‘firms' in the 1960s, 70s and 80s. They discuss the origins of the word ‘hooligan', early crowd disorder and FA crackdowns, and how post-war prosperity, youth subcultures, away travel and ‘taking ends' helped create a new kind of fan conflict. The episode also covers the European and England-team flashpoints of the 1970s and 80s, the political and policing response to the Popplewell Report, with later links to post-Hillsborough reforms and why large-scale hooliganism declined.You can listen to this episode ad-free over on our Patreon - Follow the link here - or go to Patreon.com and search for It Was What It Was.

Welcome to episode #262 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start with our ranked status so far, and where we have improved, and where we are still struggling. There is still a lot to learn in ranked, and we give thoughts on those who vote to forfeit. We think this is a problem with most new players today, who simply don't want to keep playing to improve, and want an easier game to make them feel as if they're actually improving. We then shift towards covering the past CDL weekend, and we have learned a lot from the team's current standings post Major 1. Lots of teams have serious weaknesses in their ability on modes, or players simply not performing. With new amateur players starting for Thieves and KOI, the question becomes do teams at the bottom take similar chances?How are you progressing in ranked so far? Do you know your strengths and weaknesses? When you lose, do you learn from your mistakes and work with your teammate, or do you dashboard? Finally, what are your opinions on the bottom teams, and which teams do you think are in need of a change?  Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

Welcome to episode #261 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off with our CDL overview, as we have some teams in dire situations post major 1, particularly Cloud 9, as its been announced that they have dropped their entire roster. We give our thoughts on this move, and what this means for the future of that CDL spot, as well as any future players who sign to that team. Is it the right move to join that organization, or simply wait for a better offer from the CDL? We then move towards some rumors regarding Modern Warfare 3, in that it may be up for a multiplayer remaster. We discuss the idea of remastered CODs becoming a thing, and if that is where COD needs to go in the future. Finally, we end with talks about the teased Modern Warfare 4, and how there are talks that it is making the correct steps to be a good successor to Black Ops 7's multiplayer experience. We share what we feel next year's COD needs to do to be successful. What are your thoughts on the Cloud 9 situation? Was it a bad move to drop their whole roster? Should new owners come in and take that spot? What do you think of our takes on remastered CODs? Should they come back, or do those old games need to stay in the past? Finally, what do you think Modern Warfare 4 needs to do to be a successful game, and what should it avoid doing? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

For those who have never been to a Call of Duty event, or esports event in general, we give a full breakdown of our experience the entire weekend. From the venue and its organization, to the VIP experience and matches, we leave no stones unturned, and give our unbiased review of the weekend. Along with the experience, we break down the matches. From the winners to the losers, we give our thoughts on the teams that we feel cemented themselves as contenders, and who we feel are in serious need of a change in order to contend, and even be in attendance for Major II. Finally, ranked play is finally out, and we give our first impressions on the experience, where we placed after our placement matches, and what we feel are the strongest points of this year's ranked play system.

Welcome to episode #259 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we give our final thoughts on the CDL's online matches, as we come to the end of the online qualifiers and are now ready for Major 1 in Dallas. We are beyond excited to be attending this event, and we will be sure to give our full breakdown of the experience in next week's episode. We give our opinions on who are gonna be the top teams making it to Sunday, and how this has to be one of the best Major 1 events in a while due to the uncertainty at the top. With no clear #1 team, we're expecting some crazy matches, and hopefully a couple upsets along the way. Finally, we have gotten confirmation that ranked play will be dropping on February 5th, and we cannot be more excited. A big annoyance people have had with the game so far is the long wait for ranked play to drop. We have to look back on the mistakes of last year with ranked, and hope that Treyarch has taken the necessary steps to make this ranked play experience better than last year. What teams did you expect to make a run at Major 1, and which teams surprised you, either positively or negatively? Who do you think is most likely to make a change after the major, and who in your eye is the clear #1 team? Finally, what are your expectations with ranked play?https://discord.gg/9NJYBzbuFollow us:Twitter: ⁠⁠@TheCODCasuals⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠@TheCODCasuals⁠⁠TikTok: ⁠⁠@TheCODCasuals⁠⁠Contact us:Business Inquiries: TheCODCasuals@gmail.com

Welcome to episode #258 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off with the CDL weekend recap, as we draw closer to Major 1 in Dallas. This year has been interesting compared to previous years, as there is no clear top team in the league right now, as this past weekend had some major upsets coming from bottom teams on the resurgence towards top teams. We share our thoughts and reasoning as to why this is, and what this will mean for the major. We then shift to the continued growth of BO7, as recent stats have shown this game has had a strong base of players to start 2026, and BF6 is continuing to drop. We then close with the question of the future of Call of Duty. What will this title need to do in order to stay relevant in the next 5 years, and will it be around in 10-20 years like it already has since its first installment. What are your thoughts on the current top 4 teams in the CDL? Who do you think is going to be the standout team come Major 1, and who will fall short? Do you think BO7 will continue to grow as people take a chance on the game, or is it dead? Finally, what are your thoughts on the future of COD? Will it be around in 10 years or not? If so, what do you think the series needs to do to stay relevant? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

Welcome to episode #257 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off with some talk regarding the new era of the CDL. As Slasher has officially retired, Dashy has now become the most veteran COD player in the CDL currently, and we reflect on how long we have been watching these players, and what the league will look like in the next 5-10 years roster-wise. We then shift to the most recent set of matches, and the big news surrounding LAT and their struggles. The fans and critics are calling for a change, and the question is will that solve their problems? We discuss the situation they are in, and what our opinions are on the team and their potential moves going into Major 1. Finally, we end with some season 1 reloaded talk, as we have a new event going on, along with some fan favorite remasters coming into the map pool, and hopefully into the CDL after major 1. When did you start watching the CDL? Have you seen the shift in players as the years have gone on? What do you think about the Thieves and their current struggles? What should their next move be? What are your first impressions of the new maps in season 1 reloaded?  Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

El cas Cellex i el judici contra els Casuals.

Welcome to episode #256 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off with a talk about the old guard in gaming, and who from the OG era of Call of Duty is still actively playing, from the originals to current day. This is brought up as the conversation shifts to AI in gaming, and how this will more than likely be the most prevalent addition to games in the future, and its role in creating games is what is up for debate. We discuss the main question; Is AI good or bad for gaming, and what needs to be done about its role in creating new games? This no doubt has been used for years, and is becoming more common in games we play like Call of Duty. With season 1 reloaded on the horizon, and ranked play discussions rising as we close in on season 2, we discuss some ideas that we think would make the experience even better. We share our thoughts on what ranked will be like this year, and how we think it'll play compared to previous years.  Do you think there's lots of gamers left from 20 years ago that still play? What do you think about AI in gaming? Is it a good move for developers and publishers to invest heavily in it, or should its use be limited? Finally, what do you think of our suggestions for ranked play this year? Though unlikely much will change, do you feel that anything really needs to? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

Welcome to episode #255 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we finally get our hands on the zombies experience in Black Ops 7! From two people who are the most casual of casual zombies players, we give our initial thoughts on the two maps so far, the story, gameplay, and more! Zombies as a mode  has been in a tough place over the past couple of years, but you can always rely on Treyarch to pull through, and it seems that they have with this year's zombies. Along with this, we cover our experience with the easter egg in 1 map, and what we think Treyarch is trying to do with the “Ashes of the Damned” idea of zombies being an open-world experience. We share our thoughts on if this is where zombies' future lies, as the large, battle-royale-type maps still succeed. We also touch on the end of FaZe Clan, and what this meant to the gaming community, and what lies for the future of the brand. Have you given zombies a chance so far? If so, what do you think of it? Does it compare to previous years, or does it rank a lot higher or lower? What are your opinions on the open-world zombies maps with driving? Do you think this is where zombies should go in the future, or stick to the standard round-based system we have had forever?Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

Welcome to episode #254 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off with how season 1 has been coming along for us so far, and how we have been avoiding burnout in this game. Every year we see people play nonstop at the beginning of the year, only to then fall off towards the end of the year and barely play. With the support multiplayer has gotten and with ranked play rumored to be coming in season 2, we share our opinions on why we haven't felt burned out, and what we are looking forward to working on when ranked is released. Finally, we close with a discussion around the challengers scene for competitive COD. Many new names are surfacing, and people are claiming that some of these players are the next superstars in the CDL. We give our thoughts on challengers right now, the growth it's been experiencing, and if we think some of these players will make their debut this season. What are your thoughts on COD burnout? Do you usually experience it, and if not, what do you do to keep yourself busy playing? Are you staying motivated knowing that ranked play is coming out? Finally, what do you think about the next class of professional players? Will we see these top amateurs make their debut this year, or will they have to wait? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

Welcome to episode #253 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we dive into some breaking news regarding the future of Call of Duty. As stated by Activision, Call of Duty will no longer do back to back releases for the same developer/series, meaning we will return to the original formula of developers alternating years in the hopes of a more developed game. This begs the question though if they should have COD on a two-year release cycle. What are the benefits of this move, and what are the challenges they would face? Along with this, we discuss a leaked rumor regarding the state of next year's COD title, and things are not looking good so far. We share our thoughts on what has been rumored, and what is the best path for COD going forward so Activision can hold up to their statement of “we will deliver, and overdeliver, on those expectations going forward.” Finally, we close with our CDL review as we go into the winter break, and share our thoughts on where each team stands currently. What do you think of the move back to alternating years for developers for COD? Do you think this will lend itself into more successful development cycles and produce better games, or is there a bigger issue that needs to be resolved? What do you think of the “MW4” rumors? Finally, what are your biggest takeaways from the first two weekends of the CDL?  Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

Welcome to episode #252 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we break down the first official week of the CDL for Black Ops 7, and we are thrilled to finally have it here. After a few pre-season matches that we covered in past episodes, we finally get to see where most of the teams stand as of now. We break down the matches, who were the stars to look out for, and which teams we feel are already in danger. This is the most competitive year we have had in the CDL, and performing well early in the season is a must. Along with the CDL, the new sniper rule of 2 lives with a sniper per SnD match has been used, and we give our thoughts on this ridiculous rule, and why we should just have snipers in like every other weapon. Finally, we close with our first impressions of the new season 1 maps, and which ones we hope will make it into competitive. Did you get to watch the first week of matches? If so, what are your initial takeaways? Who are your top teams, and who do you feel is going to surf the bottom of the standings? Finally, what are your first impressions on the new season 1 maps and weapons? Did they deliver, or was it underwhelming? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

Welcome to episode #251 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we are just on the cusp of the CDL beginning, and we got another taste of the competition leading into this season with the Kaysan LAN Showdown with the top teams. Though only the top 4 teams were invited, it was a good showcase of where each team stands right before the start of the professional season. We give our early predictions on the top teams for major 1, and also some updates that may be impacting the CDL map pool. With some fan-favorite maps returning in season 1, along with new weapons and buffs/nerfs to weapons, we have a lot to unpack for the beginning of the year on a competitive and casual level. Finally, we end with some news that Nintendo is getting into the Call of Duty market, and will be supporting COD within the next couple years. Which teams from the top 4 to you think are going to be the frontrunners going into the start of the year? What are your first impressions of the season 1 roadmap? Are you looking forward to the new maps and guns coming, or is it more of the same? Finally, what do you think about Nintendo supporting Call of Duty?

This was our first taste of competitive for Black Ops 7, and from the outset, we know this is going to be a great year for competitive overall. We cover some of the big takeaways from the weekend's matches, and who are the teams to be looking out for the most. Though this is not even part of the CDL and is only pre-season, it still gives us insight into how these teams practice has been, and who will be looking good going into Major 1. Along with this, we cover the season 1 roadmap, which has lots of new and remastered maps that'll most likely make their way into ranked play and the CDL. We break down all aspects of the roadmap for multiplayer and zombies, and how this is the start Black Ops 7 needs to succeed.  Did you end up watching this pre-season event? What do you think of watching Black Ops 7 competitively? Who do you think are gonna be the top teams going into Major 1?

Welcome to episode #249 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we break down one of the worst campaigns not just in COD history, but in our eyes, even in our time as gamers. Though Black Ops 7 has been a great game on the multiplayer side, the game has received severe backlash for this campaign that seems to not do anything that has made COD campaigns great in the past. From the campaign being online, having no pause feature, poor characters and story, and open world levels, we share our thoughts on each part of the story that has been criticized. We also go into what may have led to this campaign being so poor, and what this means for the future of Call of Duty campaigns. Did you play the campaign? If so, what were your thoughts on it? Do you agree with our assessment of it, and did we leave anything out you feel was important? What do you think they need to do moving forward with campaigns? Do we need a new storyline, or should it be scrapped altogether? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

The Casuals discuss the classic thanksgiving movie Planes, Trains, and Automobiles (1987).

Welcome to episode #248 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!Black Ops 7 is officially here! In our first episode of the new title, we give our first impressions at launch on the multiplayer experience. From the outset, we discuss the current perception of the game by the rest of the community, and discuss where we agree and disagree. From the maps, to how modes play so far, gunplay, gun variety, changes made and more, we leave it all on the table and get honest with our first impressions. There are some changes we would like to see, but with Treyarch's track record so far with this game and listening to the community, we seem to be in for a great year of COD. Along with this, we end on some exciting news regarding the CDL, and the wait for the season to start has gotten much shorter with a kickoff event coming in just two weeks!

Strap in for our final episode this season, as we do our full breakdown on Black Ops 6 for our end of year review! We leave no stones unturned with this review, covering every aspect of the game, with a heavy emphasis on multiplayer. This was a difficult year for COD, and we share our thoughts on what were this game's strong points, and where it fell short. For many people, this game did not live up to the hype that was surrounding it at first, and with Black Ops 7 releasing this Friday, we discuss if this game will be remembered in a positive light as the years go on, or will it be remembered as a failure of a COD title? How will you remember Black Ops 6? Do you agree with our assessment of the game? What was your experience with the game during the year, and how does it stack up compared to the CODs of the past few years? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

The Casuals discuss Book of Life (2014) and Coco (2017) movies surrounding Dia de Muertos.

Welcome to episode #246 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off by talking about advancements in gaming, and where the future of it lies. Will handheld gaming ever be replaced by VR as the main way to game, and is there anything coming down the line? We then get into the news that BO7 has confirmed the remastered launch maps, as well as when to be expecting future releases. This comes after rumors of the game coming out earlier than expected, as well as the continuing debate over BF6 vs. BO7. Along with this, we got to watch the Halo World Championship, which concludes the HCS and competitive Halo for the near future. There have been talks about Halo pros switching to COD, and some like Formal, potentially making a run at a 3rd FPS title. We share our thoughts on if these players will end up in the CDL, or if Halo can make a big comeback with their newly announced Halo Campaign Evolved.  Do you do any VR gaming? If so, what's your experience with it like? Do you see it as a potential replacement, or do you think that handheld gaming can never be overthrown? What are your impressions on the maps Treyarch has chosen to remaster? Do you think there are any ones missing? Finally, let us know about the future of Halo, and what do they need to do in order to rebuild that fanbase, competitive scene, and continue to rival Sony? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.
