The Football Ramble’s Guide To… Number Nines

Did somebody call for a Tuesday treat? European finalists Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United continued to provide us with performances worthy of a European trophy as they fell to home defeats against Crystal Palace and - checks notes - West Ham United - respectively. Marcus, Jim, Pete & Vish dig their heels into that, plus Fulham have finally opened their swimming pool! Marcus is still waiting for his invite... can we assume it got lost in the post?

We’re in Glasgow! Marcus, Jim, Vish and Pete retreat to their man cave to discuss one of the busiest football weekends we’ve had in quite a while - but not before we rate some of Newcastle’s legendary nightlife spots from our weekend jolly. It turns out we weren’t the only show in town this weekend after Newcastle pushed Chelsea aside, and Arsenal were spurred on by Trent Alexander-Arnold getting booed at Anfield. Turns out you can indeed walk alone. Plus, we get through an array of bicycle kicks, from the heights of MLS to a listener concussing himself and breaking a few ribs in his back garden.

Marcus, Luke and Andy wave Tottenham and Man United into the Europa League final with a simple question: does the fact that one of these basket cases will qualify for the Champions League make a mockery of the Europa League? And what needs to be done to address the imbalance in the Conference League?   Elsewhere, we explore the unique reasons behind players becoming club legends and after a certain humdinger earlier this week, we try to work out the ingredients for a perfect game of football. Plus, could Nottingham Forest’s unique brand of football suit them in a potential European campaign?  Our live tour is happening THIS WEEK!

Well, would you look at that - Gareth Southgate’s version of Manchester United made it to the Europa League final, where they’ll face Ange’s boys after their own unusually composed performance. Marcus, Vish, Jim and Pete pick through that confusing conclusion and look ahead to some spicy weekend action on today’s blockbuster Preview Show! We wonder if Newcastle can get the job done against Chelsea, welcome in the Championship play-offs and plot the rest of Kevin De Bruyne’s career as he transitions from silky Brentford midfielder to setting up a bakery.

Marcus and Luke bid farewell to Arsenal’s Champions League challenge after a game that summed up their entire season: impressive and eye-catching in places, but missing that final... oomph.  Speaking of oomph, the lads praise a deadly PSG performance and wonder if they’ll finally reach the top of their mountain, 13 years after they begun the climb. Just Inter to overcome now, lads…  Our tour starts THIS WEEK! Get your tickets now before it's too late: https://footballramblelive.com.
