Critic Rating
Self-confessed sports geeks Elis James and Colin Murray are here to serve up the juiciest tales from the world of sports – think epic rivalries, scrappy underdogs, and the wildest comebacks and you’re in the right ball park. Thought you knew the story? Think again. From top-secret training sessions to dressing room dust-ups, join Colin & Elis as they dive into the greatest sporting stories of all time (and probably get a yellow card for simulation!). Blood? Sweat? Tears? Sport has it all. And that’s why we love it.

"It’s hard to convey how hilarious this was, so you’re just going to have to listen. The show really pushes the idea that there will be revelations about their subjects, but really, you’re listening for the fun. And, with these two at the helm, there’s a lot of that."

"Just in time for the Euros, Elis James and Colin Murray start their sporting heroes podcast with the 20th anniversary of Wayne Rooney’s Euro debut. Their fact-packed commentary is enthusiastic and they have plenty of empathy for Rooney’s first outing as a youngster tackling press conferences and tabloids."
