You've been emailing in from far and wide requesting some matches, so we're taking on two of our fans today, Paul from England and Joe from the USA. Indeed it's a three player game, so a whole new set of tactics for Aidan and Adam to argue about. Tune in to see how we get on! If you want to have a game against us, or have any thoughts at all let us know by emailing fulltuckpodcast@gmail.com We'll probably be taking a break next week as Adam enjoys his honeymoon and Aidan enjoys his whirlwind visit of the UK. If we get 10 minutes at some point to record we might give you an extra bonus episode but we'll be back as usual on 30th July for our usual bits and bobs!
