Massive improvement
Sutton and Savage are great. Everything ticking along smooth and then the woke had to get the box ticking out. Natalie Pike might be the worst radio voice I have ever heard. Talks absolute bollocks and is beyond annoying. We all know why she’s got the job. Aaron Paul is excellent when he comes in. Natalie Pike drops my rating from 4 to 2 stars and it’s not about bashing women as Kelly Cates is an excellent host. Natalie Pike is not. Absolutely brutal in fact.

Get Rid Of Super Moralist Chris Sutton
This guy actually thinks he is morally superior that’s the scary part. As a documented heathen, Western Europeans who think they actually did the world a favor with their empires built from the slave trade in many cases make me want to throw up.

It’s Savage with Savage
Stick with Sutton, Savage and ABB. It’s awful when anyone else does it! Especially Natalie pike

Great legacy, needs a change
Love the 606 show, being US-based now it’s been a comfy lifeline to decent football discussion/opinion. But it needs a change. Robbie Savage isn’t an anchor. Chris works best with someone more able to moderate, and definitely more able to draw unbiased details from callers instead of inflammatory offhands and goading. It deserves 4 stars for what it’s been and what it will be again.

A must listen when your team has won.
Two very funny and quite intelligent gentlemen talk about football

Chris Sutton…

606 has always been great but never better than with Robbie and Chris. Just the right amount of jocularity and hard core football talk. Two veterans who can get along, take the piss, and use their experience to add to the calls. Ernest Ripepi Richmond, Massachusetts USA

Savage & Sutton - Bad combo!
I hoped that combination was only temporary. I have been listening to 606 for 12 years, but I fear my days are numbered. Robbie & Chris are only tolerable if there is someone else there to reign them in. Insufferable together. I find I turn them off before the show is over. Why have a debate show if you only want to tell the callers they are wrong? If callers are not entitled to their opinion, cancel the show altogether. They like to say that Chris "is better than that". Apparently, he is not. I used to think the management was telling the on-air personalities that obnoxious behavior made for good radio, now I think that's just who they are.

Savage
His time has surely run out as a “simple guy done well” type character? Get rid of him please. I can’t stand 606 much longer if he keeps showing up. Anyone else will do.

My favourite podcast
Please tell me Chris and Robbie together is only temporary. Robbie has heart but similar to his football career he is out of his depth unless surrounded by professionals and Chris is not that. Listening to Robbie getting tooth tied and Chris just arguing for the sake of arguing is ruining the experience. Bring back Bruce to keep Chris in line and relegate Robbie back to Sam’s assistant on Sunday please.

bring back chapman
sorry but it gets old listening too Robbie and Chris having a go at each other.. Is this really the best 606 can do!!!! they are fine as pundits but not controlling the show I’m done!

Robbie Savage is great
What he lacks in eloquence he makes up for with enthusiasm and heart. He’s a great role model for many young players and always makes me smile.

Crappy Podcast
Robbie Savage a known cheat & dirty player because he lacked any football talent & being a pundit on football is all you need to know.
Amber DFW_Girl
Most entertaining football pod
ABB & Chris are a great duo and I look forward to Sutton Death each week. The occasionally deranged callers are another highlight and you can’t forget the Peppy Gardio caller or the deluded Arsenal fan. Robby is pretty enjoyable to listen to as well, although his co-presenter varies from week to week making the chemistry not as good as the saturday programme.

Great chat and banter
The last show of the season , fantastic from rob Chris and jason , nice one fellas keeps me running in the gym in Manila

A classic
Always good for a laugh to listen to disgruntled or overjoyed fans. Ian Wright is class and Robbie Savage is funnier than expected.

The banter allows the audience from around the globe to keep up with the true fan experience with this call-in show. Jason and Robbie argue while Kelly and Ian flirt, I love it.
JungleJanners
Top notch
Only football podcast I need! Been a huge fan for a few years now. Thank you from Los Angeles.

It's gone a bit downhill
606 used to be FANTASTIC!! Fletch and Sav used to be such a great team...but Sav and Jason not so much. Some may call the constant bickering between them as "firey" but I call it exhausting. This show should be about the callers...not a running commentary about Robbie's and Jason's disagreements!
Jolly Oli
Savage is below contempt
Robbioe Savage needs to reap what he sows. He represents the "black arts" of football and needs to go live under a rock.

Day wrong
Great content - but the day labels is wrong. Says "Friday" for Saturday's show & "Saturday" for Sunday's...
Will_Palmer_
Can't listen to inane Savage
Had to Unsubscribe when the dull Robbie Savage passed a certain point of stupidity. Sorry Fletch, Wrighty, Kels not your fault. Farewell!

606 Makes My Weekend Complete
Every Saturday and Sunday evening I download this podcast, I throw in my copy of FIFA 13 and I listen the fantastic football debates on 606. I enjoy the new Shandymen segment as well. Love this show!

Get rid of Johnny Vaughan
Show is fantastic except when the obnoxious Vaughan is on
UphillBattle17
Good stuff.
Not intended to provide deep insight. The goal of the podcast is to provide some minor debate and hear the opinions of other fans. And it does that.
S so Fresh N Double O P
Excellent until.......
For all your football analysis and match reviews this is it. A true fans perspective. (Keep that ridiculous Johnny Vaughn off the air.....he knows nothing about football and doesnt care to have a football show)
Reality now
Brilliant
Best EPL podcast for the fans, by the fans. Chappers and Doc Savage, man of bronze are my favorite punditry team out. Always worth the listen.
LukEASYch
Only listen if you bleed english leagues like me
Arsenal fan from the states here great podcast and insight of the beautiful game about the best English leagues in the world such as barclays premier league, championship, league 1 , league 2, plus FA cup, carling cup, and europa cup and bonus talk from the uefa champions league if English teams are still in it

Savage needs help
Usually quite good but Robbie Savage should not be allowed to do shows by himself, not exactly full of insight. Needs to have chapman or Fletcher. Jason Roberts is a better option than Savage.

Love it
But I can't seem to get last sundays episode to show up

Where are the football shows? Update please.

Alan parry
Parry is horrible Alan green & Robbie are great
Tom s new Mexico
As smart as a bag of rocks
To paraphrase Robbie Savage, "I'm a football player and you're not, so I'm always right no matter how stupid my point of view appears to be." Poor Chappers and poor Nigel Clough they must both have the patience of a Saint.

Love 606
i live in the US... 606 is the best way to follow the premiership from abroad!

Green
Alan green is a tool and his comments on the cups every week is getting quite boring not to mention such words as DROSS and mickey mouse
Neil scullyn
The best football podcast you can find
An excellent podcast directly from England covering the English Premier League with recent news and commentary, with excellent guests and even better hosts. Alan Green is amazing! I highly suggest trying this podcast if you even remotely follow Soccer/Football.

Issssssssssssssssssssssy!
Where did you go? Who is going to read my texts, e-mails and tweets? Alan Green? Hmph. Are you coming back, Issy? Or have you been taken away a captive on Danny Baker's pirate ship? God speed. Oh, and "parlay". Remember that. "Parlay". I watched a couple of movies, and it's supposed to do something to pirates. I don't know what. I think it's a card game. When you're having trouble with pirates, I think you're supposed to try to distract them. I don't know if this works, but, I mean, you're supposed to try to punch sharks in the nose too, but I've never tried to go and do that. Anyway, I think you have to say it like a question, like, "Parlay?" Good luck.

I can't get enough of my 606 fix.Alan Green is anti City so its hard to listen to him but Tim, Spoony, Danny and the lovely Issy are brilliant. Footie show for footie mad people like me. If you haven't listened to it try Danny Baker's tuesday night show its hilarious.

Great Stuff
...and thats coming from an american. This is a very funny show and I like the other stuff they do, such as "100 Broken Bones" and "Has a footballer ever appeared to you in a dream?" This may be unpatriotic, but English callers are so much more entertaining than American callers, theres not so much "Um...." and awkward pauses that you get here in the states. Very entertaining!
AnAmericanEagle
Keeps us in touch with the beautiful game....
...If your and missing it and overseas.....by which I mean God's game and your 5 hours behind the action....this is most definately the place to be. There is nothing else to compare, especially now Danny Baker is back. This is Football, not soccer...listen to the passion it stirs, the seriousness of it all, and of course the nonsense of it! Its Great!!!
i say,i say,i say
No love for lovejoy..
Always enjoy Alan Green but Tim lovejoy is an amateur and rarely speaks with any authority,sounds like a guy they just dragged in from the streets.Lovejoy?would rather have the antiques dealer!!!!
Dogsbreath
Wonderful
Great pod, but is there any way to get the whole. unfiltered shebangey-bang? If anyone at BBC is listening, there is one American who would love the whole show. Thanks. and keep up the great work!

True fans expressing passion for the game
The 606 phone-in is the best football show on radio, bar none. Hosted by the BBC's own commentators and presenters, 606 features views and opinions of true football fanatics the world over. While it focuses mainly on the English Premier League, it has a true international flavor with coverage of major European and international games.

Can some one please fix this?
It's a great show, I rely on it for all my footie news (as an ex-pat Brit in the USA). The hosts are excellent - Alan Green particularly (Ray Stubbs is a bit dour) - and ask what are sometimes difficult questions about the game. Why, though, is either the BBC are Apple (iTunes) making such a mess of this download? In the past 3 weeks file sizes have ranged from 80+ MB to todays, over 100MB. It's typical that this has gone wrong at the climax to the Premiership and the European Cup (not to mention the great race for the Championship/relegation issues etc). Can someone please make sure this pod cast is returned to its reliable, small size (an average 14MB) and won't continue to take several hours to download?

Very enjoyable
Humor, passion, insight. This podcast has all of that and more. Seems they don't play the whole show though.
EnzoDR
Great Show
606 is a FANTASTIC show. It is the main reason I use iTunes and got Sirius. Every football fan should listen to this show.
