May 12, 2020 12/05/2020 - Playing For Reason
This week we discuss more options and suggested law changes that could come into place should the season resume.

Clubs are set to vote on playing at neutral venues and resuming the remaining fixtures behind closed doors.
The news breaking from this is that bottom half clubs are wanting relegation to be scrapped, does this take away the reasoning behind restarting the season?
We discuss all of this and also the return of football in Germany, could other countries be following suit and observing how they pull it off?

May 05, 2020 05/05/2020 - A New Newcastle?
This week we are joined by Newcastle supporter Chris Hinton.
We discuss the takeover deal for his beloved club Newcastle and get his thoughts and opinions on how he feels about the whole situation.

We also, of course, discuss more possibilities regarding 'Project Restart' and how the league can be resumed.
Chris takes on our Home & Away challenge, how will he get on? Can he knock our Champion & fierce rival Dean Proud from his top spot?
We do appreciate each and every listen we receive. So it would be great if you could show your support by giving us a review on the platform you listen to us on, it would really mean a lot and help the show grow even more.
We run competitions, play games and have lots of fun whilst trying to stick to the topic of football!

Do get in touch on Facebook or Twitter if you would like to come on the show or just get involved with us!

April 28, 2020 28/04/2020 - Who Wins On Sporting Merit?
We've had the news that the Dutch League Eredivisie has been deemed null & void, no champions, relegation or even promotion for the league below.
What does this mean for other European leagues, will we see the same plan executed here in England?
UEFA have announced they would allow entry into their competitions based on sporting merit, what does that even mean!?

We also take a look at the league table based on points per game average, is this the best way to conclude the season if the games weren't to continue?
Finally, we take part in a Premier League 'Who wants to be a millionaire' and my gosh, it is broken!

We go through the recent news following the meeting with the Premier League that happened on Friday.
Will the league look to continue without the fans involved?
What does it mean for players that are due to join other clubs?
Teams like Spurs having a fully fit squad again, their challenge for Champions League looks better than ever.

We also take part in some quizzes to see if we can put our football knowledge to the test!

We go through each team and then build our own, who has the best team?
Will Kane be on the move when the window opens?

April 07, 2020 07/04/2020 - The WORST Team Of The Season
Last week we built an all-time Premier League XI.
This week, we're building the worst team of the season so far (Depending if this season actually ends)

We take a look at players that haven't had the best of times this season. It could be a goal drought, a poor big money signing or even a costly injury that could have caused a dip in their usual performances. NO ONE IS SAFE, that's for sure!

We also change things up with our 'Who Am I?' - Think you can still guess correctly, get in touch!

Next week we will be asking listeners to send in their dream 5-a-side team from current Premier League players BUT you can only pick one player from a team. So if you want Salah, you can't have Mane for example.
Get in touch and take part, we might even read yours out on the show!

March 31, 2020 31/03/2020 - The Best Ever Premier League XI
This week, still without football, we reached out to some listeners on our social media pages asking for people to send it their all-time Premier League XI.
We go through each team submitted and discuss their strong & weak areas
Then we task ourselves to build a team of our own but we can only use the players that were submitted by the listeners, so we are limited for options.

With many arguments between James & Matt as to who deserves their place, we finally come to an agreement and submit our final team.

March 24, 2020 24/03/2020 - The Alphabet Of Football
We're still without football and it hurts a lot.
We talk about people's attempts to get their football fix such as Fifa cups, Marble World Cups & also the effort clubs are going to on social media to keep the fans engaged.
Once we've discussed all of that, we take each other on head to head in a game. (Things may get heated)
Grab a pen and paper and join in too! See if you can beat our score.

March 17, 2020 17/03/2020 - Bringing Football Back
With the outbreak of you know what, we are in a sticky situation when it comes to supporting our teams and watching the titans clash in the leagues.
So with that, James & Matt discuss the impact that the virus has had on football right at the top of the game and also all the way down to the lower leagues.
We discuss possible outcomes in which the retrospective governing bodies may elect to go with and the repercussions that those decisions may have going forwards.
We do, however, feel we have come up with a solution in which all clubs will be happy with and also could be the idea that is put forwards by the people with the power!
