The Half & Half Scarf Football Podcast With Nick & Dom
A non-partizan football discussion Podcast hosted by Nick Bramley & Dom Hanrahan. Two "Men of a Certain Age" with years of experience as fans of the live & televised game in England and around Europe.....
Both long-standing season ticket holders at the Riverside Stadium, Middlesbrough, where we met over a Bovril and a Pie, with Dom also, almost uniquely we guess also being a long-standing season ticket holder at Everton with his daughter, as he lives in the Wirral. But it's not a podcast about Boro or Everton, but about Football
Dom would not be seen dead in a half & half scarf though, rest assured.......
This entertaining weekly Podcast is for ANYONE with a passing interest in football, whether an on the terraces fan, an armchair fan, a fan of the Premier League or the National League and anything in between.
Each week we will discuss and explore all that we think might just be worthy of two "average Joe" football fans giving their time over to consider and discuss - and hopefully entertain, or even annoy you.
Football, is after all a devisive sport of opinions and we LOVE it........
It's not a moaning session, it's not just a hankering for heavy pitches, flying tackles and laced up footballs, but we think that our audience will certainly agree with a lot of the topics we intend to discuss. Either way, we hope that you will be engaged in a thought process that might just keep you entertained.

Welcome to Episode 57 of the Half & Half Scarf Football Podcast with Nick & Dom.
Early spoiler alert if you have been living in a cave or under a rock and don't know the results of the 2 WC Semi-Finals - ha ha.
As the World Cup enters the real business end, we have just 2 games that decide the finalists – (and also the two who will contest the most pointless game in world sport – the laughingly named “Bronze Final"). What is the point of that?????
There were certainly a couple of shocks – well one shock and one shocker!
This is the first time ever that the top 4 nations in the FIFA World Rankings have made the final 4 in ANY World Cup competition. That in itself is amazing, but how did it play out?
We don’t do tactical breakdowns, but as two very experienced match-going fans, we do bring our observations to bear in a podcast discussion and chat which we hope you will find interesting.
France v Spain
The Irresistible Force v The Immovable Object, except that the irresistible force was like an electric vehicle with a flat battery and it never got going.
Was it the exceptional performance of Spain, and let’s face it, they were brilliant – (if also VERY comfortable), or were France genuinely THAT poor and found out as a result?
Is it most likely somewhere in between – and perhaps we will find out in the Final, which Spain cruised though to in second gear.
Who shone, who disappointed, who was invisible and who was in total and utter control throughout?
This was a result that many didn’t see coming, but this is also the third summer in a row that a Spain side has beaten a French side in a senior men’s football tournament – so is it really a surprise?
One thing is certain, the French lost the plot and sulked their way to the Bronze Final in a right strop! I bet they cannot wait.
England v Argentina
Make sure the kids are not listening or watching……
The evening after the night before as we record this special episode, we are still shaking our heads as to how a team with at least some element of threat, if not total control can go from that to less than 12% possession immediately after scoring to immediately after conceding their second Argentinian goal – letting one of the world’s greatest players have the freedom of Atlanta to completely run the show for half an hour?
Baffling and annoying in equal measure.
We reveal a pre-match dark-arts stat that maybe gave a clue as to how they would play and how they would get away with their aggressive tactics.
So, did Argentina come for a game or a fight – their first have disgraceful display would certainly indicate the latter – but after England scored, they concentrated on what they are quite brilliant at – so why not from the start?
At the end of the match, several of the Argentina players unveiled a Malvinas Flag and an incendiary banner, a clear breach of FIFA rules, which usually means sanctions such as match bans. Does ANYONE think that FIFA will issue any to their clear favourites – no chance.
As always, lots to get your teeth into.
What do you think? Are we right, are we wrong, do you have a different view or opinion? If you want to comment or reach out, please do. We would love to hear from you......
We hope that you enjoy this episode more than we enjoyed the game last night.

Welcome to Episode 56 of the Half & Half Scarf Football Podcast with Nick & Dom.
Early spoiler alert if you have been living in a cave or under a rock and don't know the results of the 4 games - we share the winners early - ha ha.
As the World Cup enters the final run-in and we have 4 games that decide the semi-finalists on the road to ultimate glory, we discuss whether over the course of the Quarter Finals, the cream has risen to the top or whether all four games on different levels were just a bit meh?
This is the first time since 1990 that all four winners of the Quarter Finals have been former winners of the trophy, and it is VERY unusual, (if not unique - we are not sure), that the four nations who are the top 4 in the current FIFA Men's World Rankings are also the 4 semi-finalists after this latest round of fixtures.
So, we can assume that they will have served up some brilliant games and excitement for us then......
Well, with skin in the game, the England game was a challenging watch, and therefore on one level, worthy of our attention, but in terms of QUALITY - not so much.
We discuss our views as two match-going football fans who watch a LOT of football, and in headline form, here is our assessment:
Morocco v France - The Ultimate Disappointment
Spain v Belgium - Predictable & A Bit Dull
England v Norway - A Strange Game on a Number of Levels
Argentina v Switzerland - Turned on a Stupid Player Decision
Once we have shared our thoughts on the games, we ask things like:
Who would England rather have met next - Argentina, Spain or France?
Who do we think will make the Final?
Can France even be stopped?
If Argentina fully turn up across the board, are they a more complete team than France?
Who has staked a claim to start for England in the SF?
Why are FIFA STILL a bunch of thieving b***tards?
As always, lots to get your teeth into. What do you think? Are we right, are we wrong, do you have a different view or opinion?
If you want to comment or reach out, please do. We would love to hear from you......
We hope that you enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it.

Welcome to Episode 55 of The Half & Half Scarf Football Podcast with Nick & Dom.
As the World Cup continues, we have just completed the Round of 16 and as two match going football fans, we share our observations on all eight games.
Some crackers and a couple of absolute snooze-fests, but we both agree that we are now at the business end of the tournament and the jeopardy is real.
Before getting into it - a quick thanks to all of those who have recently joined our Podcast audiences - with over 2,000 new downloads in the last two days alone - maybe our posts on the whole FIFA / Trump / Balogun affair helped - they certainly struck a chord with over 200,000 impressions and loads of comments and engagement - thanks again.
So, the Round of 16 - 8 games to decide who makes the Quarter Finals and gets to be just two steps away from a World Cup Final - and potential glory.
No technical reviews, no tactics, no detailed match analysis, just things that us match-going football fans notice and that we want to share with you - our viewers and listeners.....
Morocco v Canada - The Inevitable End Result
France v Paraguay - Beauty & The Beast
Norway v Brazil - One to Enjoy
Mexico v England - One for the Ages
Spain v Portugal - Dull, Dull, Dull.....
USA v Belgium - Justice Served with a Smile
Argentina v Egypt - An Absolute Classic
Switzerland v Columbia - Thank God There Was No Extra Time
We also have a lame Dad joke that might just make you laugh out loud!
Lots to get your teeth into. What do you think? Are we right, are we wrong, do you have a different view or opinion?
If you want to comment or reach out, please do. We would love to hear from you......

Welcome to Episode 53 of The Half & Half Scarf Football Podcast with Nick & Dom.
Following the release of Episode 52 yesterday, in which we discussed the logistics, merits and otherwise of the 48 team structure, 72 games to get rid of 16 teams, (12 or 13 of whom were very predictable before a ball was kicked) and everything around the format of the group stages, including letting 8 teams who finished THIRD go though, on this episode, we focus on the on field and off field football matters by way of some observations……
SO, TWO EPISODES – RELEASED BACK-TO-BACK.
Don’t forget to check out BOTH!
On Episode 53, what are we covering?
Why Neil Warnock will be “loving it” with the type of goals being scored
What he definitely would not be loving?
Is the standard, speed and flexibility of refereeing and general officiating something that the Premier League could learn from?
Same with VAR and offside decisions – why are they so much quicker and better (in general) than we are used to in England? There are some odd exceptions – like England dodging a bullet against Ghana for example.
Will Arsenal suffer next season if we adopt the refreshing “no grappling” at corners approach?
Stuttering penalties – just NO!
What are the 5 (at least) tell-tale signs of “soccer” not football fans being in the ascendancy in stadiums, and what do we think we should do to them?
Our view on hydration breaks – why not, everyone else has an opinion
The Emma Hayes Chalkboard in the Kitchen
Why Donald Trump is nowhere to be seen, and hopefully won’t attend the Final
Infantino v Beckham – who is the most shameless and why?
Scottish Fans v English Fans
And More…….
We did cover our concerns on the Americanisation of Football all the way back on Episode 3 of the podcast back in August 2025, and sadly we were very insightful and correct with many of our concerns – just use the same links and search by episode number if you fancy hearing or seeing our insights on that too.
Lots to get your teeth into. What do you think? Are we right, are we wrong, do you have a different view or opinion?

Welcome to Episode 52 of The Half & Half Scarf Football Podcast with Nick & Dom.
Two match-going fans, two teams, never on the same scarf – and as we have the World Cup in full swing, we have a special treat for our listeners & viewers. Not one episode this week, but TWO EPISODES – RELEASED BACK-TO-BACK……
Episode 52 released today looks at the whole World Cup Group Stage – 72 games to lose 16 teams, with at least 12, possibly 13 of them being predictable departures before a ball has been kicked. And yes, given the group they were in, Scotland would be included in that 12 o 13.
On Episode 53, released tomorrow we share our on field and off field observations from a footballing perspective. We really have this covered and hope that you will enjoy the two episodes…..
So, Episode 52, what are we covering?
Well, as mentioned, has it all been just some glorified waste of time to cover global football inclusiveness, inviting nations with ZERO chance of progress, clearly designed to just tick a box and get us to the knockout phase with the usual teams involved?
Are 72 matches to reduce the competition to the round of 32 simply madness and overkill?
We think there are 3, maybe 4 surprises in total?
What are they and surely this doesn’t justify the extended 48 team formula
Is the Round of 32 even that exciting, or are we all really waiting for the business end of the last 16 onwards?
9 out of the 10 African Nations qualified for the round of 32. What does that say about the state of the game on the African continent?
Conversely, the Middle East had 5 representatives here and every one of them failed to qualify. Whilst we appreciate that the region has a lot bigger issues than football quality to consider, what does that say about the legacy of the Qatar 2022 World Cup and also the domestic Saudi Arabia football project – not a lot that is positive…..
Why letting 8 third placed teams through (just to make up the numbers) is a joke, and why the process was inherently unfair on the likes of Scotland who played their last group game early. Were later group games given a clear advantage?
Would England have fared any better than Scotland in the same group?
Why Norway have treated the competition with a lack of respect, and finally…..
Who do we think is going to win the tournament based on early form and performance?
We did cover how bad Gianni Infantino is for the game and how we would have thought it impossible to compare unfavourably to Sepp Blatter on Episode 16 of the podcast back in October 2025 – just use the same links and search by episode number if you fancy hearing or seeing our earlier insights on that too.
Lots to get your teeth into. What do you think? Are we right, are we wrong, do you have a different view or opinion?
If you want to comment or reach out, please do. We would love to hear from you......
We hope that you enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it.

Welcome to Episode 51 of the Half & Half Scarf Football Podcast with Nick & Dom.
It's still early summer, the World Cup has just kicked off but the early summer Managerial Merry-Go-Round has already started revolving - and it will only get quicker as the summer evolves and we approach the start of the new season across the Premier League, The Championship, League One & League Two, and what about at Rangers too?
As Boro fans, we have a certain view on the sacking (yesterday at the time of recording) of Rob Edwards at Wolves.
How it happened, why we have zero sympathy, what might be next for the ultimate football narcissist, including what he is bound to say at any future press conference - and does he need to buy a Road Atlas with some of his pay-off money?
Where should he go next - we have a view......
What the hell are Leicester thinking in even talking to Russell Martin. Seriously, what are they doing?
What will happen at Ipswich, Fulham and Man City and is there even a vacancy at Crystal Palace?
In the Championship, welcome back Tony Mowbray, but please keep your hands off one of Boro's assets.
Is Chris Wilder already at Defcon 6 with the sacking of his long-term Assistant, Alan Knill?
Will John Mousinho still be at Pompey for the first game of next season?
Do Chris Davies at Birmingham and even Kim Hellberg at Boro HAVE to have a big summer and a great start to next season?
And how many permanent Watford Managers will there be in the 2026/27 season? What would you put £10.00 on?
We also discuss some League One and League Two clubs as well as the status of Danny Rohl at Rangers. Is he on his way out before the longest day of the summer is upon us?
