Episode 4 of the Oxblogger podcast is out on:

In the latest episode we’re talking about derbies. What are they and who are they? Is it all about location, or is there another magical ingredient that turns a rivalry into something different?

We dig deep into our souls and ask That Wycombe Question – is it a derby? Should we just let it into our hearts? Will we look back on Robinson versus Ainsworth as a golden age of The Middle Age Crisis Derby? Is selling out the car park just a bit too tin pot for us to ever accept it?

Plus of course, we talk about Beating Swindon Easily; that Chris Maguire game, 1996 and all that, poor old Paolo Di Canio’s very public humiliation and Swindon’s commemorative mugs for degenerative mugs. And while we’re at it, we dig into what’s happened to the Reading derby, has too much water passed under the bridge or is it retrievable?

And if that’s not enough; we also cover all the hot topics – one of us is going to Germany pretending to be an Iranian, a new song for Ruben Rodrigues that we’ll all be singing on the terraces soon and what are the services near Gatwick where Chelsea train? All in just 40 minutes.
