Dads In The Box

The international break is done. Can we have the Premier League back now? ⚽🍺
This week on Dads in the Box, Craig, Carl and Rich review England’s latest games with Stocks Up & Stocks Down, before asking Who’s Hot and Who’s Not?
Then we’re picking our three greatest Premier League moments ever 🏆 and tackling a question that caused plenty of debate: if your club were an international team, who would they be? 🌍
There’s also the latest on Manchester City, our FPL update, and a look ahead to the Premier League’s return.
🍺 Plus What’s in the Glass? and What You Wearing?

⚖️ We get stuck into the latest developments surrounding Manchester City’s financial charges. With reports that the majority of the alleged breaches have been proven, City maintaining their innocence and an appeal process ahead, we ask what happens now — and what could it mean for City and the Premier League?
🏴 Then it’s England. After a chaotic 3–2 defeat to Spain at Wembley, we look at who impressed, whose stock has fallen and which players are pushing hardest for an England place.
🦁 Three Lions, Three Opinions. We have our say on some controversial opinions about England before we tackle another club-v-country argument: do you want your club’s stars playing 90 minutes for England, or wrapped in bubble wrap and sent home? 😂

Who makes the greatest Premier League XI of all time? ⚽🐐

Craig, Carl and Rich have each picked their ultimatestarting XI from the Premier League era — plus a four-man bench — and it’s time to defend those selections.

Some absolute legends are going to miss out, some bignames are going to divide opinion, and we’re fairly certain nobody is going to agree. 😂

But before the arguments begin… 🍺What’s in the Glass? gets an Oktoberfest twist this week with a German treat.

⚽ We pick through another eventful weekend of Premier League football and the biggest talking points.

📊 FPL returns as we assess the latest triumphs, disasters, transfer dilemmas and what we’re thinking ahead of the next Gameweek.

🐐 And then it’s time for the main event — our All-Time Premier League XI.

Three dads. Three teams. Plenty of disagreements.

🍺 Another week, another round in the box.

This week, Craig brings a bit of local flavour to What’s in the Glass?, before the dads tackle a very special edition of What You Wearing? 👀

Then it’s onto the football.

⚽ We pick through all the big talking points from the weekend’s results.

📊 The FPL Round-Up returns as we look at the heroes, the disasters, the transfers we’re already regretting and what comes next.❤️

And for this week’s main feature, we go back to where it all started: why do we support the clubs we support?

Craig and Carl explain how they ended up following Manchester United, Rich tells the story behind his Chelsea allegiance, and we get into the people, players and moments that turned three kids into three football-obsessed dads. Because you can change your FPL team every week…but you’re stuck with your football club for life.

Three dads. Three clubs. A few beers. Plenty of opinions.

Football. FPL. Beers. Mates. Questionable opinions.

In this Dads in the Box special, Craig, Carl and Rich take a closer look at the career of Xabi Alonso — from one of the classiest midfielders of his generation to one of football’s most exciting young managers.

We look back at his playing days, his journey into management and what made his time at Bayer Leverkusen so impressive, before turning our attention to Chelsea.
What will Alonso bring to Stamford Bridge? Why is there so much excitement around Chelsea right now? And is the hype justified, or are we getting carried away far too early?

You might want to get comfortable for this one… 🍺

The summer transfer window is done, so Craig, Carl and Rich are going club by club through all 20 Premier League teams to rate their summer business.

Who smashed the window? Who spent an absolute fortune and somehow got worse? Which signings are we jealous of? And which clubs have left us wondering what the hell they were doing?

We work through the league alphabetically, looking at the big arrivals, departures and money spent before handing out our Dads in the Box transfer-window ratings.

And because it’s still Dads in the Box, we’ve got all the usual nonsense too…

🍺 What’s in the Glass? — another beer gets put to the test.
👕 What You Wearing? — the mystery shirts are back.
🎯 Carl’s Duds — it’s in there somewhere… but who ends up staring down the barrel this week?

It’s a Transfer Special, it’s a long one, and things inevitably go off track along the way.

Episode 3 of Dads in the Box has landed!
Craig, Carl and Rich are back to round up another week of football, FPL and questionable decision-making.
We kick off with the biggest football stories of the week before finding out What’s in the Glass? 🍺
Then it’s time for the FPL GW2 fallout. Who delivered, who’s already testing our patience, and are we making sensible early-season moves or falling into the classic FPL knee-jerk trap?
Carl’s Duds is also back for another attack — but who’ll be staring down the end of the barrel this week? 🎯
Then we tackle a slightly different football question: if you could invite any five people from football history to your ultimate dinner party, who would make the cut? Craig, Carl and Rich reveal their guests, explain their choices and work out what sort of chaos might unfold around the table.
Plus, we get stuck into the latest transfer business and look ahead to another week of Premier League and FPL action.

Episode 2 of Dads in the Box is here!
This week, Craig, Carl and Rich look back at the opening weekend of the Premier League and the damage it’s already done to our carefully planned FPL teams. We talk early transfers, knee-jerks and who’s already regretting their decisions.
Away from FPL, we round up the latest Premier League transfer business before the first appearance of Carl’s Duds.
We also get stuck into the new Premier League rule changes, before turning our attention to FIFA president Gianni Infantino — his recent antics, the growing criticism around his leadership and whether there’s another side to the argument.
And, of course, What’s in the Glass? returns.

The Premier League is back, and the Dads in the Box are making their predictions for the season ahead.

In Episode 1, we kick things off with What’s in the Glass, featuring a popular choice from Craig, before getting into our Premier League predictions — the good, the bad and probably a few we’ll regret.

We reveal our top six, pick the three teams we think are heading down, and run through our final FPL squads ahead of the new season.

Three dads. Plenty of football. Plenty of opinions. Let’s see how badly these predictions age. ⚽🍺
