Love him for his irreverent sarcasm or hate him for covering one of the most competitive footie leagues, whilst enjoying the Italian experience, James Richardson will no longer be seen on these shores hosting Gazzetta Football Italia on GolTV. Richardson has been a long-time fixture in the Anglophile coverage of Italian soccer. Fortunately, you can still hear him on the Guardian Football Weekly Podcast. If you haven't had a chance to check it out, definitely give it a listen, if not for Richardson, then for the lads (and lady) they have on the show, some of whom put out The Fiver.

Och, aye, I'm goon tae the fitba . . . Money doesn't buy you class in Edinburgh, apparently, as the Lithuanian businessman Vladimir Romanov gets on Hearts supporters tits. [Sporting Life]
The upcoming highlight for the second half of the Red Devils' season could be Henrik Larsson's arrival at Old Trafford. Will Sir Lord Alex fancy giving the smooth Swede a run-out against Lille? Hard to see him not doing so. [Manchester Evening News]

1) The Guardian podcast rocks. It's the only one I know with European-wide coverage, and pundits who all know what they're on about.
2) Jose must have had his knuckles rapped by Chelsea's lawyers. Most uncharacteristic.
3) Larsson! So excited, even if I sort of wish he was still at Barca.
Have you listened to the Times Podcast? It's not bad; mostly EPL stuff, but decent craic

I've tried the Times Podcast a few times. It's pretty good, although sometimes it lodges in an obscure area of the EPL and I lose interest.
Happy holidays to you too!
