Booked and Abandoned episodes
- Mark Oxley A.K.A James MilnerIn our second episode, we set our sights on James Milner… but got ghosted again. Thankfully, local legend Mark Oxley answered the call! From dodgy refs to rugby showdowns, his grassroots adventures are pure chaos. Listen out for a 240-year-old grandfather clock that’s somehow younger than him—and you might even discover a brand-new football position along the way. Expect laughs, baffling decisions, and stories you won’t believe!

37 min - Brenden Child A.K.A Wayne RooneyIn our debut episode, we shot our shot with football legend Wayne Rooney—who promptly ignored us. But fear not! Stepping up in his place was local grassroots icon Brenden Child, who delivered a masterclass in footballing disasters. From snapping his leg (not on purpose), to botching penalties, to scoring goals… just sadly in the wrong net, Brenden’s career is a cautionary tale wrapped in comedy gold. A true grassroots epic, minus the glory.

About Booked and Abandoned
From the publisher's feed
Booked and Abandoned is your ultimate grassroots football podcast, where hosts Andrew and Scott explore the untold stories of the beautiful game at its rawest and most relatable level.
When…
aiming for football legends like David Beckham leads to being ghosted harder than a Sunday league goalkeeper during a penalty shootout, Andrew and Scott turn their attention to the unsung heroes of the pitch—players with more passion than trophies, more grit than glamour, and just the right amount of banter.
With dodgy pitches, dramatic half-time oranges, and tales that range from laugh-out-loud funny to genuinely touching, "Booked and Abandoned" brings you the grassroots football experience in all its unfiltered glory.
This podcast celebrates the love of the game, one story at a time. So grab a cuppa, lace up your boots, and join us for a hilarious, heartfelt, and totally un-Premier League ride.
