The Drunken Transfer
An ill-judged Fantasy Premier League podcast, from the mildly-inebriated footballing minds and mouths of Jacob South Klein and Finegas Stockting. New episodes every Gameweek.
Episodes
Fin is here, but not the Fin you were expecting...
For one week only, the South Klein Brothers Grimm, Jacob and Finley, team up to tussle and tangle with the torrid tat that is this tepid FIFA Fantasy World Cup "Competition". Grr.
[Finegas is in Pembrokeshire and is not, in fact, dead.]
What's this? Do my ears deceive me? Jacob is alive! He's re-emerged from his cave, just in time to join Finegas for a second helping of this FIFA Fantasy World Cup disasterclass, oh joy.
You'll be clamouring for the return of Max and Llion (and more broadly speaking, Fantasy Premier League) before you can say the words "Dodgy Davy Klaassen".
WE’RE BACK BABBBBBYYYY!!
After a brief sabattical before the mid-season, we’ve rolled on the World Cup fantasy game. Sans Jacob to provide us with in depth Dutch advice, Fin is joined by Radio Cymru FPL EXPERT (that’s right, expert) and Max Modell to stand in, as Llion walks us through his Welsh/Chelsea/Euro Scorer bias on team selection and Max professes his undying love for the Aryan beauties of Denmark. Tune in for strategy, ...
Nope! The only way is down, as it turns out.
This week: an ever-disgruntled, utterly discombobulated Jacob ends up with egg on Faes and declares war on The People's Republic of Leon Bailey.
Similarly, Fin - on the other hand/boot - is left rapidly falling out of love with his FPL team (if not football, and competitive sport in general), with the boys only consolation being an uncharacteristically solid showing in the latest round o...
TDT goes all Numberwang (it was about time). This week, Jacob finally unleashes his inner Carol Vorderman, whipping out his co... abacus to aid with some Mo Salah statistical wankery.
Elsewhere: Fin doubles down on Arsenal midfielders, and bitterly regrets *not* doubling down on Brighton defenders. Hindsight is 20:20 - with 20 the score to beat after an appaling GW12 showing for the boys last time out.
The only way is up, surely......
Next stop on the Dominic Solanke apology wagon: Here. On this midweek instalment of TDT, the boys discuss the vital decision surrounding captaincy in a Haaland-less week and what to do if there are sizeable City/Arsenal caverns in your team. Fin rues his band of bandaged and suspended FPL assets, as he looks to take his first -8 hit in years, whilst Jacob shows his hand on transfer plans early. And of course, attention is drawn a...
On this latest humdrum episode of the Reece James Self-Flagellation Society: the boys ponder a pretty pedestrian Gameweek 10, before dark drunken thoughts inevitably turn to Gameweeks 11 and 12 (with the latter’s fixture list looking as scarce as the follicles on Pep Guardiola’s scalp).
Will bloody Mitrovic ever be fit again? Will the unbearable Dominic Solanke ever stop making us look stupid? Is Michael Olise the chosen one? [Ye...
It's Groundhog Day, babbbbbyyyy! For the second time this season, Fin hurtles up to an impressive 59K and establishes a 30 point lead over a rueful, Maddison-less Jacob, leading the two to speculate how long it will take him to blow his advantage this time. The duo discuss the dark cloud of the Man City/Arsenal GW12 blank ominously looming on the horizon, whilst Jacob gets a shock when hearing the overall points on the Roll the Spi...
Wham blam. Mourning periods and international break yawning periods have been and gone - FPL is back in full Gareth Bale golf swing, yee haw. On episode ten (TEN) of TDT, Fin attempts to diagnose the Stockholm Syndrome madness of the Dominic Solanke epidemic sweeping through Wildcards the world over, and Jacob authors emotive odes to Marc Guehi and Vieira 2: Electric Boogaloo. Plus: for Gameweek 9, Jacob ponders perhaps the most bo...
CURSE THE GAMEWEEK POSTPONEMENT! Our lovely Episode - GW numbering system is now all outta whack! This is an audio recording of our inaugural Twitter LiveStream episode, recorded half an hour before the GW8 deadline. Listen back to our last-gasp captaincy changes and live reveals of respective Wildcard/Free Hit teams! Follow us at @drunkentransfer for accompanying video! ...
He just can’t stop scoring goals. No, not Josh Sargent - we’re talking about the Erlingbot 3000, of course. Depending on whether you trusted him with the armband or not, GW5 was either a case of Haahahahaland (Jacob) or Haaaaarghland (Fin), with no in-between.
Also on this episode: perturbed by his ever-shrinking minileague lead, Fin’s fickle finger teeters precariously over the Wildcard button. Plus, giddy following his smashing S...
TWO PODS IN A WEEK? In this inaugural mid-week edition of TDT, our star-cross'd FPL lovers chinwag from afar, sparing poor Fin from Jacob's full-frontal fury when Kieffer Moore's name is mentioned (again).
Meanwhile, Jacob wallows in the what-might-have-beens of his Haaland non-captaincy, but takes solace in precious ground gained on Fin in the big/mini-league. Come on Brendan, your number's up.
Rodrigo looks happy and healthy. Kieffer Moore is still an expensive tree. It can only be time for Gameweek 3. Rhyming is fun.
Join Fin and Jacob as they quaff the beer and chew the FPL cud. Featuring all the usual gristly bits, such as Tank Your Rank and Roll The Spice. Other - less fun - podcasts are available.
Bonus content? Bonus content! Here's a scrumptious extra morsel salvaged from the cutting room floor. Before Gameweek 1 got underway, Jacob and Fin indulged each other with their Premier League table predictions, alongside a miscellany of other bold takes (all guaranteed to inflict maximum embarrassment come May).
Strap yourselves in for a light and breezy minisode featuring top goalscorers, first sackings, biggest flops, and... er...
The die has been cast. The teams are 🔒. In an episode of contrasting emotions, Fin wallows in the aftermath of an almighty cock-up, whilst Jacob revels in the glory of his last gasp tinker-in of Norway's finest export.
Plus: we have the debuts of Tank Your Rank and Roll the SPICE, two exciting young features which are being touted to have a promising first season.
BANG. The starting pistol for the season has been fired. In this completely normal episode: a sleep-deprived Jacob has (another) breakdown, and the multitalented Finegas channels both Kevin Keegan and Eric Cantona within a dizzying, mystifying ten-minute spell.
We (...well, Jacob) bought booze this time, baby! Fin and Jacob celebrate the official launch of FPL, discussing the best value options at each price point, their initial drafts and pay tribute to the Premier League's best, most exciting striker: Joe Gelhardt.
Debut episodes rarely/often come better than this. Gearing up for another long season of FPL trials and tribulations, Jacob and Fin run the rule over a (semi...) newly-released set of Premier League fixtures for the 22/23 season. No team is safe from their rubbish opinions.
