Football Ramble

With Declan Rice’s move to Arsenal FINALLY confirmed, Luke goes back into the archives to bring you his Ramble Meets interview episode with the man himself back in 2019.

Rice gives a great insight into his personality, as he talks about being a professional footballer, how he interprets his own position, and some of the many sacrifices he made when he was growing up to not only succeed, but now become the most expensive English player of all time. So join Luke and Declan and enjoy!

The World Cup is still brilliant, but it’s got its problems. And yet the issues we face today aren’t as confusing and downright obscene as those faced by the thirteen teams who competed in the first ever World Cup.

There was - we stress - some truly outrageous moments. Teams and fans missed their steamboats there, brawls erupted on the pitches and in the stands, kings picked some of the teams and a defeat in the final incited a literal military coup.

Marcus, Luke, Andy and Pete are your insightful tour guides!

Chloe and Rachel bring you a very special episode of Upfront ahead of the World Cup next Thursday! Our guest today - Carly Telford - has been to not one, not two, but THREE World Cups! So who better to tell us about how to prepare for a major tournament?

Chloe and Rachel sit down with Carly for a fascinating pod, where Carly reveals her formative conversation with the Lionesses No.1 Mary Earps, how England really prepare their goalkeepers for penalty shootouts, and why Sarina Wiegman is less of a harsh taskmaster than you might think!

Today, we welcome you to another of our Patreon mini-series: The Five Hive! Every Sunday, we debated our favourite fives - from football's best villains, to stadiums we want to visit.
