I used to play for rippleway in the echo league. My mum wrote to Julian Dicks to ask him to give the trophies out at our presentation. He phoned my house phone and told my mum he couldn't make that day but he arranged to meet us at the stadium and gave us loads of signed bits for the raffle. Shirts balls and things like that. He had pictures with us and all that. Proper legend
I remember Julian Dicks nights out! The Rendezvous, Chelmsford followed by Dukes night club behind it. Top bloke always had time to chat, even brought me a beer once. Back in the day he was the best left back in the country, should have played for England. Having my West Ham season ticket back then I loved watching him play. His cross field balls were inch perfect. The season we stayed up with Hartson & Kitson scoring for fun was fantastic but part of the reason we stayed up was because we had Dicksy and Slav at the back. My favourite Dicks moment was at home to Sheffield Wednesday. Dicksy went in on a tackle on Chris Waddle in the opening minutes, won the ball but put him 6ft up in the air, he didn't want to know after that. JD3 = West Ham Legend
Met him at dukes just as he signed for the bindippers. Spent hour with him . His minder said , ok lads on you go. . Dicks told him to fuck off and went to bar and got the shorts in. As a fan he is what you want in your team.
Love Julian. Still one of the best players I have seen in a West Ham shirt. Easy for people to forget he was actually a great player as well and not just a hardman.
Managed Wivenhoe Town in the Eastern Counties League when the club was on its knees. Much respect for Julian helping out The Dragons in their time of need.
Feel like the abrupt cut After Julian said he'd be pissed with a cigar in his mouth means there was definitely more to his night out which got cut out!
Dicksy...legend...one of my favs...never left anything out there...gave it and took it. Very cultured player, could smash a dead ball. Love how he talks about west ham and upton park, boleyn.
I remember the game v Wimbledon, they came to bully us but the likes of Julian and the boys gave it back. Mad dog Martin Allen scored a fucking beautiful volley winner late on.
One of my first idols! I used to wear my socks half down, shin pads showing and try it the ball as hard as I could. Used to cut my collar off like he did. It’s nice to see he’s as humble and genuine now as he always has been. Rare in football these days ❤️❤️❤️
Painful listen. Screams of ‘we are contractually obligated to have this Brewdog rep push the hard sell of this beer by describing it in wanky terms’. Couldn’t have had a more perfect guest in Dicks to scowl with arms crossed the whole time he tried plugging it! Gotta get that sponsor money but Brewdog should know how artificial it feels.
Looks like thats it for scatman dave? Just left no good bye lol, i dunno if i like they keep rotating the third person, rather have one person who stays, oh well still enjoy the pod
Listening to this and whilst working i keep thinking i'm listening to Michael Caine! Dicksy is a legend and i took my penalties like him, gave someone concussion once in training!
I grew up playing US football and track, and him talking 'bout being tough was the way we played. Trying to teach my oldest boy (football/soccer), the games have changed so much that I find myself at a loss on how to teach him how to play. I try to teach him how to punish oppents, but the refs are so soft now a days.
Although I'm on the side that misses statman dave I guess it's ok if he left the pod but wish the boys will atleast tell us what happened to him or if he left etc. Now it just seems he did something dodgy and was asked to leave and if they just dont mention him it will all go away. I dunno maybe its just me lol
Lads, brilliant podcast but get rid of barman Ryan and Brewdog. Brewdog is a terribly run company plus we don’t want to see adverts for alcohol. Stick to the stories.
Chris Stark just objectively isn’t funny. Ruins every joke Crouchy makes and is way too childish, but it’s like he tries too hard to be Tom Fordyce was actually funny
Julian Dicks, show some respect, learn your history. How dare you say feck off to Spurs when the greatest English footballer, ever! deemed to grace his presence on your little cockle club : Jimmy Greaves spanks you, spanks your club, and for you to forget that? Shame on you.

Pure class and should have played for England. What a legend COYI
Dear Brewdog Brand Manager. Nobody's going to shag your beer.
Wish I could push this comment to the top
Horrendous.
Fast forward the first 8 mins
Rubbish beer

Love Julian. Still one of the best players I have seen in a West Ham shirt. Easy for people to forget he was actually a great player as well and not just a hardman.
Left foot was a sledgehammer, he could hit a freekick and his pen record would be the best in the world if he played now.
one of those guys who you only appreciate if he plays for your club, as a United fan I hated him 😂
Managed Wivenhoe Town in the Eastern Counties League when the club was on its knees. Much respect for Julian helping out The Dragons in their time of need.
Someone send a lost lager to statman dave 😂 all the best Dave!
Worlds longest holiday its seens

Didn't think I'd enjoy this one, but Julian's actually a brilliant guest love the energy!
BEST PODCAST! Peters laugh is …EVERYTHING😀😀😀
what an amazing episode, what a contrast of Julian playing what we then knew as football. great laugh as always

This was really good - JD comes across as a very honest and straight forward person. 👍👍
As a spurs fan I was never a Fan of JD but what an honest decent bloke he comes over as👍🏼

Ngl, I'm not missing Dave one bit
Who's dave? 😅
Who does
Has he been sacked?
Poor Dave, but I agree
You lied. Couldn't wait to mention him
Skip to 8 mins to get past the crap beer pitch
I liked the bit with Crouchy in it
Enjoyed that bar the first 8 and last 8 minutes!
Thank you 👍👍
This, lads, is a beer, and it's going to taste a lot like a beer.
Couldn’t agree more - love the pod but the first 8 minutes is pretty cringe
not old enough to drink beer yet lads?😂
@@Billboswaggings found the salesman's account 😂

Thoroughly enjoying the post Dave era
8:15 to the pod…
Looks like thats it for scatman dave? Just left no good bye lol, i dunno if i like they keep rotating the third person, rather have one person who stays, oh well still enjoy the pod
Where’s Notorious S.I.D?
Can that stark lad not even open a beer? 😂😂😂
Chris having a mare of a start to this one.
Never expected JD to sound like that. Was expecting BrikTop
Listening to this and whilst working i keep thinking i'm listening to Michael Caine! Dicksy is a legend and i took my penalties like him, gave someone concussion once in training!
Is matey having a wind up with the beer turnout? “It’s peachy, might get a bit grapefruity, nice aurora on the nose. 😂
Makes me want to fall asleep and cut my ears off at the same time due to pure cringe. Impressive.
Hipster ipa wankers
Aye, we want a lager not some potpourri shite
Top top player in his day
I love how your all talking about reconnecting via some 4A your reading from. From the heart❤! Love the pod
Is Statman genuinely gone? Not mad at the decision, just strange they’ve never addressed it, if so.
Those awkward 20+ moments when Julian Dicks can't say the word penalty properly and Pete and Chris want to laugh but it's Julian Dicks 🤣
Its his bristol accent ffs. Does every accent have to me home counties for you.?🙄
@@soccer1970-f5fI lived in Bristol for years and never met anyone who couldn't say penalty
penatie
@@soccer1970-f5f triggered much?
Timestamp please didnt catch it haha
quality lads, great stories!
Ryan does look a bit like Statman Dave in Witness Protection.
Love the comments about Upton Park, makes me think of Highfield Road at Coventry, if you happen to see this, did Crouchy ever play at Highfield Road?
Yes he did
Coventry vs Portsmouth at Highfield Road 22nd September 2001
2. 0 to coventry
crouch started for pompey
It makes my blood run cold thinking we once had Dicks and Ruddock as Centre Backs at Liverpool. It scares the crap out of me just thinking about it.🤣
They scared the hell out of Eric Cantona too.
Something about Julian Dicks calling it Flight Stimulator
Like Starky’s flight simulator, was this pod done in real time because Crouchy looked absolutely hammered come the end😂
I grew up playing US football and track, and him talking 'bout being tough was the way we played. Trying to teach my oldest boy (football/soccer), the games have changed so much that I find myself at a loss on how to teach him how to play. I try to teach him how to punish oppents, but the refs are so soft now a days.
00:34 in Crouchy's already annoyed by being interrupted by Chris😂
Have you fired statman?
What happened to stat man dave?
56:10 - "Kann you do that on your stimulator?"
17:55 that'd be why pep and sir alex are the greatest managers of all time. actual coaching.
Quality Episode gents ⚽️🙂💙
I want to see Roy Keane and Dicks on pundit duty together
Let’s just fast forward past that rubbish with the beer at the beginning and crack on with the pod shall we
They'll swap to some video app instead of youtube next.....
Top man, Julian. Lovely bloke....... I just wouldn't like to have played on the right wing for Spurs or Man United 30 years ago!
A 45 minute advert.....wow, they must be giving you some serious cash.
Jamesie, Murphy and Nash are 3 quality hurling analysts in fairness to OTB
Although I'm on the side that misses statman dave I guess it's ok if he left the pod but wish the boys will atleast tell us what happened to him or if he left etc. Now it just seems he did something dodgy and was asked to leave and if they just dont mention him it will all go away. I dunno maybe its just me lol
Think it was just a zero personality and cringe banter thing tbh
If the notorious S.I.D replaces stat man permanently the pod is back to great days before moving.
He might have a Bristolian accent but he is West Ham through and through
He (Julian) should start a podcast with Edd Balls called ‘Dick and Balls’
Chris asks some really DAFT questions! 🤐
Yeah, like can you speak to animals
Why the hate for Dave? Hes a good lad
Crouchy has been hitting it hard
A team game….same In all leagues… as well as Sunday league with yo mates. 100 % all the time. This is why we love football 😁
Isn't it weird that some support one player obsessively?
Adress statman Dave lads!!!!!
no need everyone is happy he's gone
@@Billboswaggingsnot everyone
Guys, get some desk mics 🤷🏻♂️
My grandson was a plasterer and he went on to come a pilot with a well known Airline.
Cool.. good on him
Every person he ever met he told to 'fuck off'......lovely chap.
did you wave your imaginary yellow/rainbow card at the screen, to register your modern day offence.?😂
@@soccer1970-f5f Nope.
Statman Dave was alright don’t get why people hate on the guy when they’ve never met him this is what’s wrong with the world
Nice guy but he didn’t have the banter required. Can’t keep someone because they’re a nice guy, just ask The Beatles.
For violating my ears with nonsensical laughter every 30 seconds
Great see jd but certain djs should stick what know
You guys should have at least acknowledged SMD. Really poor from you guys. Thought you had a bit of class about you lads
Where is Dave ?
And how much a can is it.
Should have been arrested for that tackle on David rush
Great ep, one think I picked up on though is I don’t think Julian likes animals
Brilliant
I always wondered why Dicksy came back a bit bigger than he left.
Definitely didn't give away a corner from a penalty
Is Chris super imposed from the 1980s just a load of pixels
notorious S.I.D where u gone bro?
Dave is gone guys forget about him. Sad that there no SID, I don’t acc know this fella who’s on tbf
Wheres Stat man dave lately lads?
Somewhere else thankfully
Dicks was part of the fattest Liverpool team ever. Roy Evans didn't want him because of his off the field refuelling regime
where is statman dave these days? Also Chris, wtf is that coat
Steve Smith (cricketer) has a story about his careers advisors giving the OK to focus on cricket full time
Tbh, not the best guest you've had; nothing against the guy, just sayin'....
Tough player
Bit of a dull one this week
Julian really gives me 90s English football vibes 😂
Because he’s a footballer from the 90s mate
@@Podders1991 WAS HE?!?!
@@SHRWM Yeah mate. Weird comment.
Will Schofield be getting in touch with a mate he has lost touch with? Or just via lawyers.
Good one
Poor guest today, swearing every couple of words has a personality of plain digestive. Only episode over the years years I haven't enjoyed 😕
Yeah he's just old school for the sake of it isn't he?
Lads, brilliant podcast but get rid of barman Ryan and Brewdog. Brewdog is a terribly run company plus we don’t want to see adverts for alcohol. Stick to the stories.
Lads, come to sydney don’t be parched
Chris with his noncey little teeth
Thank fuck the beer bore ryan got bailed, him and statman boring the shit out of a bar full somewhere still though.
Chris Stark just objectively isn’t funny. Ruins every joke Crouchy makes and is way too childish, but it’s like he tries too hard to be
Tom Fordyce was actually funny
Julian has no respect for hipsters
Who has. ?
The fastest shot in history is 135.5mph
Was that a penalty though?
Penaty
Don’t understand these hard men still acting hard. Not enjoyable to listen to
Surely if you are hard you
Stay hard for life.

Bless ya. Lol "how dare you tell spuds to fuck off" are you for real. Tosser
His nickname wasn't 'terminator', it was 'dick'
Bring dave back and get rid of that other guy. All he does is get in the way of interviews. With crouchie and the guests
need to sack that guy of at the start hes so boring
Who, the beer guy? He works for Brewdog....
@@adamtench4447 yea thats kinda obvious...
Did it really need all the beer bullshit? Longest advert ever!
