Football Ramble

Whisper it: Leicester City are on the verge of another title. If they play as well as they did last night in their next 31 games, it’s theirs for the taking!

Marcus, Andy and Jim are here with reaction to Leicester’s dismantling of Leeds Utd, who looked a bit more nervous and tentative than in recent games. We also look over Fulham’s first win of the season against fellow relegation strugglers West Brom, while Chelsea’s fourth-choice goalkeeper Petr Cech is keeping it all business. We also look ahead to tonight as, away from the Champions League, AFC Wimbledon return to Plough Lane after their 29-year wait - glorious!

Each Premier League match seems to be falling into one of two categories: ‘chaotic goal-fest’ or ‘tedious, dull nonsense’. Join Jules, Luke and Pete on today’s episode as we sort through this weekend’s games.

Southampton’s annihilation of Aston Villa certainly fits into the former category, as free-kick extraordinaire James Ward-Prowse showed his class. Man United vs Arsenal, though a great win for the Gunners, was a decidedly torrid affair. We get into those, plus Newcastle’s win over Everton and Mick McCarthy’s new gig, in an action-packed edition of the Football Ramble!

Join Marcus, Luke and Andy for another jam-packed edition of The Preview Show, sponsored by Betway! This weekend, we’ve got a shedload of games to look forward to.

José Mourinho was his usual diplomatic self after Spurs’ surprise loss to Royal Antwerp, while Arsenal had a much easier time against plucky Dundalk. This weekend, they take on Man United without any of the usual pomp and circumstance, while Aston Villa host an in-form Southampton - come join us!

Marcus Rashford can do it all! Last night, he took a break from his admirable social activism to knock a quick hat-trick past RB Leipzig in the Champions League. Marcus, Pete and Andy are here to look over an impressive United performance that was overshadowed by another sartorial swerve from Leipzig coach, Julian Nagelsmann.

Elsewhere, Chelsea return from Krasnodar with three points and a first goal for Hakim Ziyech as Roman Abramovich watched on. We also speculate what’s next for Jack Wilshere and hear of some truly bizarre match preparation from lower down the pyramid.

On today's episode of the Ramble, Kate, Jim and Andy are back to look over another night of impressive European performances.

We kick things off with chat about how a strikerless Man City despatched Marseille and an injury-stricken Liverpool beat FC Midtjylland. We also look over the FA’s new diversity code that aims to improve representation in the higher echelons of English football. 

Meanwhile, Barcelona president Josep Bartomeu leaves in a typically understated fashion - by apparently signing up to both a European Super League and an expanded Club World Cup. Classy…

In this time of crisis, we all need a man of the people to stand up for what's right. Step forward, Mike Ashley.

Marcus, Vish and Luke are here with reaction to his one-man crusade against the recent pay-per-view proposals, as well as some truly outstanding camera work up at Inverness Caledonian Thistle. There’s also some football to look over, as Spurs look to be mounting a serious title challenge after Son Heung-min and Harry Kane teamed up again, while West Brom and Brighton shared the spoils down at The Amex. Oh, and Vish unveils some more bizarre Aussie slang - join us!

After Ajax stuck thirteen past VVV Venlo and stole most of the Premier League’s goals, Jules, Jim and Pete are here to pick up the pieces on today’s episode of the Ramble! 

We start off with praise for Southampton’s hugely impressive performance as they brought Everton’s unbeaten run to an end, while Man City struggled again as they were held by West Ham. We also look over another barnstorming Leeds win, with pianist Patrick Bamford among the goals, before bricklayer-turned-Newcastle trialist Florent Indalecio reminds us it’s important to dream once in a while.

The Premier League’s coming over the hill, which can only mean one thing - it’s time for The Preview Show, sponsored by Betway! Kate, Luke and Jim are here to blast through an intriguing round of fixtures, as Man United host Chelsea and Arsenal head to Leicester on the back of a lacklustre European performance.

We also wonder what’s going on at Sheffield United as they search far and wide for a goalscorer, and the Luke’s Game lineal champion defends her crown!

After Liverpool stood strong in Amsterdam and Man City swept aside Porto, Kate, Pete and Andy settle in for another roundup of Champions League action on this glorious Thursday. We then look over Mesut Özil’s omission from Arsenal’s Premier League squad and wonder how a player of such undisputed talent has ended up in his position. 

We also even have time for some glorious shithousery over in Valencia, as a well-placed mariachi band continue to snap at the heels of the club’s owners.

The Champions League can do funny things to a team, it really can. Exhibit A: Chelsea secured their first clean sheet under Frank Lampard! Marcus, Pete and Vish are here to celebrate this momentous occasion on today’s episode of the Ramble.

Man United also impressed last night, beating a wholly underwhelming PSG in their own back yard. We run the rule over that, throw our totally sincere support behind the Super European Premier League Battle Royale and receive a musical blessing from Pelé himself. Vamos!
