Sound of Football Podcast 245 - Maximum disrespect

There are two main subjects on this week's podcast, united by the common theme or respect and what it really means.

Firstly there's the fallout from that Messi/Suarez penalty and why so many people got hot under the collar about it. A moment of genius or a slap in the face? Can something be both things?

More controversially, for fans of English football at least, are the supposed plans to shake up the FA Cup — plans that include moving to a more continental style tournament with midweek fixtures and the end of replays. For many this shows a complete lack of respect for the oldest tournament in the world. Are they right or should the competition move with the times?

Graham, Terry and Jan add their own opinions to these polarised debates, including an earth shattering proposal for the future of the much-maligned League Cup.
