In this week's Left Field, Wogan and Allen limp towards the new football season. The spend the first half asking if pre-season tonkings matter, if Gareth Bale should learn Spanish and if Arsenal are subject to a voodoo curse, before debuting new segment Crystal Ball as they make predictions ahead of the Football League season kick-off. Just give us football, man. Then in the usual second half of not football, there's Ireland out-capitulating England in the cricket at Lord's, very wet Formula 1, Sergio Garcia being a dope, Jeremy Lin being sad, and a Top Four of young overachievers – despite Wogan's best attempts to introduce it wrong.
