Podcast Series Football Ramble

Someone pass Nobby Solano his trumpet, because Newcastle are heading to Wembley! Jim, Luke and Vish react to last night’s Carabao semi-final and a spending spree on deadline day!

We discuss Sky’s coverage and why it suddenly resembles a Zoom call sales conference, before turning to the very best of the pettiness from João Live Laugh Love Cancelo. Luke also explains his firm belief that Arsenal will let the Premier League slip through their fingers on the final day and we look forward to Jonjo Shelvs turning the ship around tonight for Nottingham Forest! If he’s let into the stadium, that is…

Prometheus Ancelotti Playing

Prometheus Ancelotti

Poor old Gabriel Clarke. After a tricky World Cup with all of that Thomas Tuchel nonsense, the last thing he needed was an angry Argentinian venting his frustrations at him. A quiet day at the office it was not though as Manchester United sank to defeat at the Metropolitano. Vish gives his thoughts on Lisandro Martínez's post-match comments, while Marcus and David offer their much-needed support. Plus, Vish tells us how to shallow-fry schnitzel in avocado oil, and will Pep Guardiola take his trousers off at the Etihad? Get your Football Ramble x Admiral kit here.

Mailbag: Are football's financial rules fair? Playing

Mailbag: Are football's financial rules fair?

Welcome to the Mailbag Moral Maze. A listener has got in touch regarding an inconvenient truth: Man City might be guilty as sin, but the Premier League's financial regulations are far from perfect. What can be done? Marcus, Jim and Luke answer that hefty question and plenty of other less hefty ones, including our genuine, non-poetic thoughts on the Great Autumn International Break, whether Thomas Tuchel remains the right manager to take England to major tournament glory, and the question that no one's asking about the Man City charges apart from the man himself: what will happen to Brother Brendy's 2014 Premier League medal?
