The Preview Show: What about Lee Chappy?
25 April 2025 - 1 hour 3 minsWith Jamie Vardy's exit confirmed, there's only one question on Marcus, Luke and Pete's lips today... what's next for his lookalike?
It's FA Cup semi-final weekend! The lads look ahead to two huge showdowns at Wembley. But there's also plenty of excitement (and excrement) down in non-league. Just listen and it'll all make sense...

Daniel Farke? Scarper
When it comes to bears, if it's brown, lay down. If it's black, fight back. If it's white, goodnight. And if it's a Daniel Farke Care Bear? Marcus, Pete, Jim and Vish issue their advice on that, try to stamp sexy shoulders out of the game, crown Liverpool Sporting de Club Set Piece, and launch Pete's brand new TV show in Moldova. There's also an unwelcome visit from the Spirit of the Game at Burnley, who continues to haunt us, and Vish makes the case for Jordan Pickford's save being the best in Premier League history. Let him cook. Find us on Bluesky, X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and email us here: [email protected].

Jack's Encyclopaedia: Goal involvement kings, Thomas Frank's rare wins, and City's European darlings
After a meeting of the Ramble intercontinental senate, it's been decreed that the Ehantharajah Empire has simply been too powerful in the My Biddy Aunt arena of late, so a game of Jack's Encyclopaedia is the task this week. The belt is up for grabs with Marcus taking on Vish. Jim's on the whistle for this one. Find us on Bluesky, X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and email us here: [email protected].

The Preview Show: Leave the rat alone
It's the weekend everybody! And we've got a chocker Fri, Sat and Sun full of football goodness. Arsenal host Chelsea in the big one on Sunday. As both sides prepare for it, John Terry asks once again: "Why am I not the Chelsea manager?" There are probably a few reasons for that, JT. Marcus, Jim and Vish preview that. Plus, Ryan Yates attempts to calm his ravenous sausage dog, André Onana eyes a return to Manchester United, and we all gather to celebrate a decade of Gianni Infantino at FIFA. Ten more years!

What about the Champions League
On a night where Vinícius Júnior didn't need to answer to anyone, he did anyway with a brilliantly taken winner against Benfica. The dance goes on. Pete and Luke are joined by David Cartlidge to look back on the action across Europe last night – including further depressing scenes on both sides at the Bernabéu, as David explains. José Mourinho behaves like a prat too, of course. We also unpack perhaps the worst red card decision in recent memory in Juventus vs Galatasaray. Poor lovely Lloyd Kelly!

The LinkedIn Derby
Those Qarabağ boys didn't go down without a fight! Newcastle already had one foot in the round of 16, which allowed Eddie Howe to give Nick Woltemade a run out in midfield. It wasn't pretty, but I guess it kind of worked? Pete tells Marcus and Jim why Newcastle need to be patient with big Nick. Plus, Bodø/Glimt deliver a huge shock as they knock Sporting Clube de Inter Milan out of the Champions League, Joe Hart becomes a coach for a day, and Snoop Dogg leaves a stench in the Swansea City tunnel.

Mailbag: Can multi-club ownership be defended?
A nice light, noncontroversial one to kick off today’s Mailbag: are multi-club ownership models a necessary evil in modern football, or a blight on the game’s very essence? Marcus, Luke and Vish tackle that one first, before diving into some of the lighter questions you’ve chucked us over the last week. What are some nice bits about modern football? Where would we choose to finish our own career? And who’s got the best ‘bang average career, exceptional individual moment’ in football history?
