Football Ramble

Join Dotun Adebayo, Andy Brassell and David Cartlidge for the first of our On The Continent Transfer Specials, coming at you every week here on the Ramble feed!

We get stuck into Barcelona's underlying problems as they jostle for Robert Lewandowski's signature, while Romelu Lukaku's back in Italy for more Intertainment. There's also a rundown of impressive Premier League additions, as Sven Botman joins Newcastle and Leeds snag the impressive Marc Roca.

We'll be back with another OTC Transfer Special next week. Got a question for us? Ask away! @FootballRamble

Today, we’re giving the definitive lowdown on football’s spiritual home: stadiums. What makes a stadium special? What’s the world’s steepest stand? And how exactly can Pete Donaldson improve everyone’s viewing experience? Control of the undersoil heating, that’s how.

Marcus, Vish and Pete tackle those questions, some stadium history, and much more in today’s Guide!

What’s this, a new Ramble?! Damn right - join Marcus, Vish and Pete as we sail those calm, off-season waters.

We’ve got some transfer business to tend to, as Sadio Mané puts his feet up and Pep takes Kalvin Phillips under his wing. Elsewhere, Gareth Bale heads stateside to cement a six-month legacy, while Kevin Keegan’s hosting a charity event in Sunderland. What could possibly go wrong?

We're back with another of our favourite episodes from last season over on Football Ramble Presents. Today, it's the turn of our weekly women's football show, Upfront!

Back in December, our hosts Flo Lloyd-Hughes, Rachel O'Sullivan and Chloe Morgan sat down for a conversation about sexuality, openness and acceptance within women's football. They also speak to Arsenal's Katie McCabe and Aston Villa's Ruesha Littlejohn, one of the game's most celebrated couples, about unapologetic openness and using their platform for good.

Why do so many of us obsess about football? Why do we do this to ourselves when it can cause so much pain? Well, we're here to help! Kind of. Welcome to The Football Ramble's Guide To!

This summer, different Ramblers will be here to walk you through the sublime and the ridiculous from our beautiful game. Today, Jim, Luke and Pete discuss the twelve hardest yards in sport: penalties. Join us as we look into their historical origins, revel in the psychodrama and reminisce about the time Arsenal took the absolute piss.

What should we talk about next? We'd love to get stuck in to some of your suggestions; email us: @FootballRamble or tweet us @FootballRamble.

Andy's back with a hugely important episode of At The Match, as he travels to Łódź in Poland to see Ukraine's second 'home game' since the Russian invasion in February.

He walks through crowds of vibrant local supporters with British-Ukrainian journalist Andrew Todos, who reflects on a hugely difficult period for the national team. We also hear a fevered home support cheer on Oleksandr Petrakov's men, who came away with a point after a ludicrous James Collins opener.

We're back with two bags of souvenir Bulgarian pottery for another trip down memory lane as Kate, Luke and Pete kick off with the 2015/16 season - dilly ding, dilly dong!

The Iceland horror show came and went, the Champions League served up its best season ever and the Ramble became Football Ramble Daily. After that, we welcomed our new cohort to Ramble HQ and, following a Film Club-filled lockdown, we came roaring back with over 500 episodes of glorious nonsense. Oh yeah, and England got good again!

Join Marcus, Jim and Vish for the first of two episodes celebrating fifteen years of the wee Ramble!

We take a trip through the first few years of the show and football history more broadly, as the lads took a ramshackle production from Luke's kitchen to the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and onto a studio Pete had access to. In that time, Pep Guardiola became a manager, the legend of Keggy was born and Donaldson drunkenly bought two pianos.

We'll be back tomorrow with Part Two. Thanks for all your support over the last fifteen years - here's to the next fifteen!

Over the next few weeks, we're bringing you some of our favourite Football Ramble Presents episodes from this season!

Back in November, Andy went to a rain-soaked Barcelona as a new-look Barça took on Benfica in their first Champions League game of the Xavi era! Despite the reduced capacity, Andy said it was one of the best atmospheres he'd ever experienced at the Nou Camp. He also chatted with GOAL's Rik Sharma for the inside track on Barcelona's recent struggles and their hopes for Xavi.  

We'll be showcasing a range of shows from across the Ramble universe over the summer before we come roaring back for the new season in August!
