The lads are back for an international break catch up to discuss some of the biggest talking points in the Premier League of late. 

Ruben Amorim has finally started his tenure at Manchester United, and what do Jasper and Wilbur think will become of the Portuguese manager? Will he finally light the spark that ignites this United side, or will he go the same way as many of his recent predecessors?

Premier League referee David Coote has been stood down after some controversial footage came to light, which has once again raised questions about the PGMOL and the standard of refereeing in the top flight. As an Arsenal fan, Jasper is a bit quicker to criticise and speculate than WIlbur is. 

Finally, Manchester City's form continues to slide, as their Balon d'Or-winning talisman Rodri watches from the stands. Is this the season that finally ends the historic run for Pep Guardiola's side?

Two months have elapsed in the new Premier League season and the boys are back to assess the situation and give their thoughts on who's hot, who's not and who's just kinda... meh. We've also had a few game weeks to have a look at the new Champions League format, which may not be as bad as Wilbur and Woodson initially feared....

Fate would have it that the boys couldn't quite align their schedules to get together before the season started for 2024/25, but nevertheless we are back to give the 40 Yard Switch predictions for how it will all unfold. From where all the teams will end up on the table to which players and coaches to look out for, we've got you covered.

The OG duo is back! For the first time in many months, WIlbur and Woody and back together for a post-Euros recap. We discuss Spain's deserved win, England's second straight Euro Final loss and all the other teams that impressed or disappointed us. To round out the show, we talk about Gareth Southgate's departure from the England Manager role, and what is next for the Three Lions. 

On the eve of the 2024 UEFA European Championships, Woody is joined sports market expert and Aston Villa fan Liam Hall to discuss how the tournament is going to unfold from start to finish. Who's going to win? Which teams will make a surprise run? Which players are being backed to shine this summer? All of that and more as we prepare to kick off a month of international football action.

After a five-month hiatus we have returned!

Life sometimes can get in the way of things like a sports podcast, especially when the two hosts are not paid to produce it. However, with Jasper now settled in London, a new era of The 40 Yard Switch can begin! For this return episode, Woody is joined by Yannick Hansen, in person for the first time, as we conduct a review of the 2023/24 English Premier League season. We go through all 20 sides, assessing how their season transpired, for better or worse. Then to mark a triumphant reemergence, we put up the fourth iteration of our End of Season Awards, with some picks that may shock you...

Chelsea have struggled for results and consistency of performance all season so far, and their woes continued when they lost 1-0 to Middlesborough in their EFL Cup semi-final first leg. After a decent start to the campaign, Arsenal now have just one win in their last seven and we knocked out of the FA Cup by Liverpool at the weekend. We dissect the issues facing the two clubs and how much worry is justified for both sets of fans, before finishing by discussing the future of the pod as we prepare to be living on opposite sides of the world. 

Happy New Year! We're back for our first episode of 2024 as the congested festive fixture list comes to a close. With the small break in play, it's a good time to present our Mid-Season awards! From best player to break out star, surprising team to biggest flop: we've got it covered.

Nottingham Forrest have sacked Steve Cooper and since replaced him with Nuno Espirito Santo. We discuss why we don't think this was the best decision from their ownership, before going through the newly released fixtures for the Champions League Round of 16. Finally to round out the show we have a general chat about the state of play in the Premier League as we approach the festive period.

The group stages of all three UEFA club competitions have drawn to a close, and will return in the new year. We go through the Champions League groups and discuss how the Premier League teams have faired, as it has been a mixed bag for Manchester City, Arsenal, Newcastle United and Manchester United. Jasper then has a question for Wilbur about how the astronomical spending in the Premier League may be starting to create a more competitive league overall.
