Football Ramble

Marcus, Jim and Pete are here to discuss the weekend’s action, where Man City had enough in the tank to overcome the weaponry of Newcastle United, Arsenal got past a wind-powered Sheffield United and Harry Maguire denied us penalties with his late winner against Norwich. Was this Marcus Speller’s deliberate attempt at black magic-based sabotage? 

Over in the Premier League we zero in on praise for James Ward-Prowse and Danny Ings, while in the Championship Neil Warnock is back with an immediate bang!

We have a global offering for you today, featuring a wonder-assist from Santi Cazorla, Ronaldinho’s latest ambition and the German word known as “Lingerkeg”.

On today’s episode of Greatest Games, in association with The Blizzard, we look back on perhaps the most enjoyable game of the 1994 World Cup, alongside the New York Times’ Rory Smith! 

Despite the fallout from Diego Maradona’s drug ban casting a shadow over their tournament, this enviable Argentina team and cohort of Romanian superstars were probably the tournament’s two best sides. We revel in the chaotic game that unfolded between them, featuring cracking goals from Eastern European football royalty and technical quality that belied the sweltering heat in Pasadena.

Luke, Marcus and Jim are here and Liverpool have finally done it! They had to wait 30 years, and then a little bit more, but it’s becoming increasingly clear that they do not care. Where do they rank among the best Premier League winners of all time? Tune in to find out!

We look back over Chelsea’s win over Man City in what was, fittingly, probably the best game since the restart, look over our favourite moments of the FA Cup so far ahead of its return and indulge in a surprising amount of Coventry chat.

Liverpool breeze past Crystal Palace with a precision bordering on the unnerving, and now find themselves a whisker away from their first Premier League title for 30 years.

Not to be outdone, an Anthony Martial-inspired Man United swipe Sheffield United aside, while Newcastle and Aston Villa duke out a draw and Serie A goes goal mad.

The Premier League ain’t stopping, and neither are we! Jules Breach, Luke Moore and Vithushan Ehantharajah are back with another episode of the Football Ramble, as this festival of summer football continues.

On today’s show, we begin by reflecting on Tottenham’s distinctly underwhelming win over West Ham. Vish was there in the press box and talks us through the procedures involved for the visiting press and the peculiarities of reporting on a turgid game in an empty stadium. We also discuss Brighton’s hard-earned point at Leicester, as the Foxes’ faltering performances before lockdown seem to continue. And, much like two cartoon TV villains returning for yet another season, we celebrate the return of Neil Warnock and ponder Arsenal’s decision to hastily announce David Luiz’s contract extension.

Kate Mason, Andy Brassell and Jim Campbell are here to discuss another frustrating turn of events as some utter prat paid a numpty in a plane to deliberately miss the point of a global push for equality. Ben Mee and Burnley themselves spoke out eloquently and commendably about a bad situation that needs to be addressed. 

In the football itself, Phil Foden shone, a lockdown plus reveals itself as Antonio Conte is now more audible from the sidelines and we give a wave to La Liga conspiracy merchant Gerard Pique. Plus, this just in… WARNOCK RETURNS!

Well, what a weekend of Premier League football that was! Marcus Speller, Pete Donaldson and Vithusan Ehantharajah are here to dissect it all on a brand new episode of the Football Ramble!

Newcastle four-month unbeaten run continued with a win over Sheffield United - though Pete is still reluctant to praise goalscoring machine Joelinton - while Neal Maupay delivered some of that Premier League #narrative we’ve been craving as Brighton beat Arsenal. Elsewhere, we touch on Wolves’ win over West Ham that featured some alarming sounds from Davíd Moyes and round up the latest Championship results, as teams scramble for promotion and Aleksandar Mitrović has grown his wild mane out.

On today's Ramble Meets... episode, Andy Brassell is joined by former Charlton and Wimbledon forward, turned coach, Jason Euell! 

Jason burst onto the scene when he scored a remarkable volley on his Wimbledon debut, before establishing himself as a first-team regular and fan favourite across his eleven years with The Dons and Charlton Athletic. He sits down with Andy to discuss learning his craft in that post-Crazy Gang era at Wimbledon, enjoying his best years at Charlton and his determination to rise through the coaching ranks. He also gives his erudite and engaging thoughts on the opportunities available to black coaches in the game and what can be done to promote much-needed diversity throughout the football hierarchy.

On today’s episode of Greatest Games, in association with The Blizzard, the New York Times’ Tariq Panja joins us to remember one of the most raucous football atmospheres he’s ever experienced, where his laptop “consistently bounced off the table in the press box for the full 120 minutes.” 

Tariq, Marcus and Jonathan reminisce about an error-ridden match where Turkey looked certain to go out as the game unfolded and Croatian pressure started to mount. Drama late in extra-time, a chaotic penalty shoot-out and a frantic battle to get to a European Championship semi-final ensured this was truly a game to remember.

With a full weekend of Premier League fixtures to look forward to, the next few days promise to be full of gloriously unfiltered Barclays action. So join Marcus Speller, Andy Brassell and Luke Moore to discuss it all on today’s episode of The Preview Show, sponsored by Betway!

We look ahead to pivotal fixtures at both ends of the table, as Norwich look for a much-needed win to keep their slim relegation survival hopes alive, while José Mourinho faces his old club with presumably the same air of disdain and resentment he left with. Elsewhere, we give you the lowdown on Chelsea’s latest signing as Timo Werner puts pen to paper, we hear about Kai Havertz getting cheeky on Twitter, and Andy takes on Marcus in a titanic battle on another edition of Luke’s Game!
