We’re a podcast about Sheffield United F.C. - find us on Twitter @Tufty_Club We mostly talk about the Blades and football stuff, but often go off on a tangent about loads of other things. These side-ramblings are usually about music, travel, beer and UK culture, but recent tangents have also included how baggy 90s clothing was, the British weather, and model villages. Something for everyone.
