The Preview Show: No Palace, no party

Tell you what, there’s nothing quite like playoff limbs™ - even if Sunderland’s Dan Ballard struggled to get his shirt off after netting a 120th minute-winner. Marcus, Jim, Luke and Vish check in with the latest after another dramatic night in the Championship! We also celebrate the best collab we’ve seen in modern football: Brazil x Carlo Ancelotti - but why now? And will he be a success? Plus, Jose Mourinho’s reign of terror continues, Wayne Lineker pushes Arne Slot’s classy demeanour to breaking point and don’t worry, Man United fans: Sir Jim’s having a BBQ!   We’re still on tour!

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 into that and celebrate Fulham finally opening their swimming pool! Marcus is still waiting for his invite... We’re going on tour!

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.
