Peter Crouch goes through his Premier League contract clause by clause 

Were you surprised by anything you saw in Peter's contract?

"Letting them through, and then last-ditching them for a grand" LMAO! Brilliant!

Love that Crouchy just went and played and accepted that relegation everyone suffers so why not the ppl that were involved with actually relegating the club that affects the city. Top Man.

Couple of improvements to help the podcast out; Create a separate channel for short clips. This will create an extra source of advertising and allows you to use Buzzwords to get in recommended feeds i.e “Peter Crouch too OLD to play for stoke” then add the clip about age clause. Add timestamps to the video for different discussion topics. If people click certain timestamps that interest them the algorithym will likely recommend based on those tags.

Loving this! Keep it going lads. Numbers will fly up sooner rather than later 👍🏻

I think this subject needs to be revisited as there's surely so much more to unravel. It would be nice to hear Crouchy reveal some comparisons such as the Stoke contract vs Liverpool/Tottenham/Portsmouth/whoever. Also unusual conditions of employment or limitations such as not being allowed to ride a motorcycle.

Just stumbled across this podcast and was entertained in the first 5 minutes! Amazing work!

LMAO when he said defenders are lucky they’re on the pitch killed me

Really enjoyed the defender bonus discussion!! Funny and thought-provoking at the same time

One of the most interesting ones you’ve done guys thank you.

Probably then best football podcast out there if I'm honest..crouchy your a legend can I get piece of memorabilia 😆

You need to advertise this more or something. Brilliant lads very funny. Glad I found it.

Love this show. I do miss the 5 Live podcast though.

35 years old is the age that professional players can draw their PFA pensions. My understanding is that by drawing the pension it precludes the former player from only playing on at anything other than a defined level of non-league (semi-pro) football - and associated number of games per week and training sessions are set. Plus due to the nature of their service, hips, knees etc. tend to need attention far earlier than other professions. Peter chose to play on past 35, and accordingly that has to be reflected in his pro contract

The legend of Peter Crouch continues to grow.

Tips for growing this channel: Whatever you did different with this one!! 😂 I’ve listened on spotify many a time and this is the first video that I have ever seen pop up from the channel.

Criminally low numbers on this channel and pod, always back stronger 💪

The frightening lack of eye contact Peter gave Dave worried me. Poor bloke.

Crouchy should tour around english podcast like jackmate true geordi and others to promote this podcast. I used to watch the old on and was suprised it ended. I accidentally got suggested by this today. Happy to hear Peter again.

This is class. No ifs no buts

I can’t believe I’m just finding out there’s visuals for this pod now

Definitely do the rest of the contract!

Where else do we get to see a players contract and go through it😂 class

Love it! Defenders are lucky to be there, thats their bonus!

Listened to The Anfield Wrap this week and Firmino was on a basic 67,000 pw but then in one game he scored and assisted to get his stats to a certain level and got ball park 180,000 that week due to bonuses activated.

Need a part 2.

“I’m bang into fraud….. prevention” 😂😂😂😂

This is top quality content

Are u coming home? "we don't live there anymore" 😂 class!

As a big Stoke fan, I love these podcasts so much. More so today because I've just been dumped, but still... thanks for cheering me up boys

Nice touch getting timo werner on

Crouch , you will always be a legend .

This is my Theory. As it is ever more a team game. Every player should be on a team per season clean sheet bonus, goal bonus, positional bonus etc etc and this should then be divided between the squad on a minutes played basis

Never supported any of Crouchys teams in the Premiership but hes always been one of my all time favourites in the league! Go C3-PO ! LEGEND! 😎😎

Harry redknapps view on goal bonus is quality. What am I paying you 50 grand a week for? To miss? 😂

Last ditch tackle bonus 😂🤣

the pod introduces what can only be called the Fulham-Norwich Clause

Great idea for the podcast lads, top banter and laughs, an easy listen and looking forward to more. As a Spurs fan big Crouchy is the Goat. 🤜🤛💙

Retirement clause likely to be for insurance. If Crouchy signed this (at 35) and then retired a week later, insurance wouldn't pay the remainder of the contract. They are acknowledging both parties accept the basis of the contract being entered into suggests no impending retirement and intention to fulfil full deal

I get all my Pod from the audio version, so I was really hoping I'd see what the Laout was looking like when I stumbled on the recaps, but no... holding the cards close to your chest, I see.

Does Crouchy Always wear his watch half way up his arm lol

Can we get a link to this contract😅

"They're spoiling the sport. You're lucky to be there." 🤣

I went to a music gig in Liverpool on the docks, it was pretty small and Crouch was there and he stood right in front of me, I couldn't see a thing.

I dont get how ypu only got 15k subs.. these podcasts are brilliant and intuitive.

The first big point about agents developing relationships with clubs and whether that can affect how they negotiate for some of their clients is one I've often wondered about. As a West Ham fan it's well known our Chairman has some pet agents he'll use, until recently it seemed he'd take their word on players over proper scouting. But you wonder how many lemons they'll sign to get a better deal on a bigger fish etc.

Speaking as someone who didnt rate crouch when he signed for Liverpool was laughing with the rest however after he broke hes goal drought there he won me over i saw hes quality with the ball i soon begun supporting him then when he signed for spurs he was brilliant there too and i really rated him till the end of hes career and then after hearing him speak in interviews and watching hes documentary you really couldn't find a more decent caring funny person u won me over vlcrouchie and you showed all the haters and put them to shame absolute legend in my eyes 😊😊

So what clauses did they put into Crouchy's contract that the club gave as "sufficient grounds for termination"?

howd they get ramsdale on the pod?

Is the podcast still on BBC sounds or back on Spotify?? Also, why are the episodes so short now 🧐

Is this the whole pod??

I would love to hear a podcast of your time at LFC

To reach 100 tackles/interceptions as a bonus for defenders or clearances, blocks, duels won, recoveries. Could work.

Good on crouchy

Goal line clearance bonus or block a guaranteed goal bonus.

could actually listen to crouchy all day

254k veiws in a week with 22.5 subs is massive 👏👏👏🔥👏⚽

I'd be interested to know if 35 Years Old Retirement age clause was in Crouches previous contract with Stoke. Could easily of been a copy of your original contract amended with updated dates, but they forgot to take the 35 Year Old retirement clause out. I used to put contracts together as part of my job. Majority of new contracts are amended Cut n Paste jobs from previous contracts.

Only found out about this podcast it's brilliant yous should try advertise it a bit more do tubes golf channel or Ben foster ones yous should have way more subs

You guys are gold. Tummy ache from laughing.

Striker's goal bonus is a bit a joke isn't it 😂As Roy Keane would put it "That's their job"

Full backs will be on assist bonuses now for sure! Crouch would love to play with Trent.

Why is there a printer in the pub?

'Normal Retirement Age' is probably a term relating to Crouchy's footballer's pension. He probably would have been entitled to it from age 35, despite continuing to play.

'lucky to be there' i love winding defenders up. my favourite is when they pat each other on the backside for hoofing a ball out of play. LOL

Defenders getting bonus for scoring goals from corners or set pieces??

What a guy Crouchy is !

Imagine the contracts now days

Do players also pay the Agent as I understand that the clubs pay the Agent?

Something like a "rate of arial duels won"-clause would make sense for central defenders or defensive midfielders. Like if you win 65% or more of your arial duels, you get a bonus.

Crouchy is hilarious 🤣🤣

Bonuses for XG's ..... never .... player like Adama Traore would be raking in huge bonuses without ever scoring.

James Tavernier at Rangers had 18 goals last season and 19 the season before that and he’s a right back , surely he’s got to have a goal bonus … fuck scoring that many and not getting the rewards ….. I’ll just hang back here and punt the ball up to midfield !

Can someone tell me why that other bloke was replaced with this dave fella?

How many actual sweet times did you need to be told that clean sheet bonus for defenders = goal bonus for attackers Putting the ball in the net is the hardest part of the game and will always reap the greatest rewards

That guy speaking sounds like the dude from radio 1 with scott mills

I'm going to Turkey Monday. I'm going to go to as many Internet cafes as possible, put this podcast on RU-vid and leave #PassThePod

you can laugh all you can but in retail, store managers get bonus for having stationary under control!! i got in trouble once for ordering too many pens for a meeting :D it was part of KPI

I’m rocking my Chelsea jumper when I sign 🤣

What a ledge crouch is

commenting to increase the algorithm and get more views for the lads

The way wages are structured must be as FFP nearly killed off the R's ........got to keep it real 🤘🕊

I am sure managers/ coaches know about bonuses.I head stories in papers where players where remove from squad because if they played 1 more game they would get a big bonus. Weren't there story about Barcelona player that didn't get played because he was about to get bonus for games played?

Bonuses are redundant. The only way it works is if the base salary is reduced to a nub and then the player earns their salary on a game-by-game basis. Obviously, this doesn't work as it is a function of how many games you play. If you don't play, you don't get paid. Players are paid so much that they should have deductions instead of bonuses for not fulfilling certain strategic goals.

When Jon Arne Rise's payslip got leaked, his, as a defender had a win bonus. Which I think is the only bonus that should be in a contract. Win and you all get paid, lose and you get nothing. No selfishness or individual goals to work towards. Bonuses are stupid anyway. Strikers are signed to score, attacking midfielders to create chances, wingers to take people on create chances. Defensive mids to break up play and defenders to win headers and tackle. Literally getting extra money for what you are already paid to do.

Best podcast on the planet 🤣🤣🤣🤣

"You're lucky to be there", lol, keep being you Crouchy

Watch half way up his arm n that 😅

Not enough details.

😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 this is gold 🤩

Damn! Was looking forward to frauding crouchy. Guess I'll return my stilts I bought back from the shop first thing in the morning and the long trench coat too!

Chris I’m very familiar with footballers contracts and as Crouchy kept saying (despite you not listening) Ive never seen a defenders or defensive midfielders contracts that included a goals scored bonus. Nor have I seen one that had a “clean sheets” bonus. Goalkeepers contracts do however normally include a clean sheets bonus, which is ridiculous when you consider that the teams overall performance has far more influence over the goals conceded than the goalkeepers individual performance. “Modern” statistical stuff such as Opta stats and goals expected for/against vs actual seems to be largely ignored this far...

last ditch tackle bonus should be enforced by UEFA and FIFA for fun 🤣

Just yesterday I was about to google about player contracts and what they look like and this morning on youtube I see this.

I liked the video before watching it, anyone else done that?

"Fulfilling your role bonus" hahaha sounds like every job bonus I've ever had, some weird algorithm that no one understands and is basically what your boss says you are going to get

What is the bonus for the defender ? Crouchy: Being there Top lad😂

Does crouchy like stat man Dave?

draft excluder bonus!!!!!

clean sheet bonus for keepers? and center backs? does this happen? championship manager has me ruined :P
