This week we step away from the pitch and dive into the world behind the football clubs we love. Evangelos Marinakis takes centre stage as we unpack his rise from Greek shipping tycoon to football power player at Olympiacos and Nottingham Forest. We talk through his legal battles, fiery controversies, and the polarising figure he’s become across European football.

From there, the conversation shifts to us as fans — how vulnerable we are to the decisions our clubs make, and how often we find ourselves swept up in ownership dramas, shady dealings, and questionable ethics that we never signed up for. What responsibility do clubs owe to their supporters, and what power do we really have when things go wrong?

It’s a deeper, left-field pod during the international break — less about the scores, more about the structures that shape the game we love.
