It's Row Zed, not Row Z. At Fulham we used to sing "When the ball hits your head and you sit in row zed, that's Zamora!"

[TheBomber]

Ha! I love when Nick said “Row Zee; as in Row Z?” and the presenter didn’t even catch what he was saying.

[MrSotero]

Jason usually hates doing these types of interviews because they tend to get repetitive, but you can tell he had a lot of fun on this one.

[matthewslater]

the clip of Ted having a panic attack while Jason is mumbling his way through the dummy question hahaha

[alexpaul]

As apparent with Nick’s “Row Zed?” question, I bet they would have been a lot more familiar with these terms coming from an actual British person since they’re used to hearing it said the British way

[IAmConorr]

"A Treble" is three major trophies. "THE Treble" is your domestic league, UCL and the highest other domestic cup.

should've asked Jason to define the Offside Rule - that's what Ted is most known for not grasping the meaning...

Although I understand pea roller and dummy run I'd say they're raley used in British football terminology. There are so much better ones he could have used such as - man on, one-two, whip it in, rabona, man-up/mark-up, have a pop/dig, scuff a shot, knock on, hit the woodwork, a screamer etc

[SamButler]

I think bottles might occasionally still get thrown; they don't let you have the cap when you buy a bottle

[manavsandhu]

The interviewer hardly knows the answers himself

[matriquess]

"treble is kinda of the same as hat trick"

for fuck sake HAUEHAUEHUA

[rishabhpb]

Nick's looking great! Or maybe just the effect of how different they've made Nate look now

[ReidGameX]

As an American looking in, my favorite term is "fluffed his lines" ... such a great, old phrase.

[Phleanix]

"has no interest" in football.
That explains the West Ham shirt then. 🤣🤣🤣

[jamesherbie]

I'm a football fan and I've never heard of a pea roller. A daisy cutter maybe

[danhodson]

"Row Zee as in row Zed?"
"I can't give you any clues on this one..." ....what?? Where did they get this interviewer from?

[RegalEase]

Dummy run? It's just a run, whether it's played or not. A dummy itself is what the Beard said.

[joshg]

I love how Brendan takes offense at not getting one.

[sharpshooter]

Treble is three trophies, correct (so technically, three domestic trophies would count or three trophies could count). But unless it's the UCL, League Title and Major Domestic Cup, I wouldn't be going around claiming my team won the "treble" (and I'd say majority of fans would think the same).

[PhilVillagerOffical]

I love how Coach Beard is just the actor
