On this week’s episode of the Joy of Football Podcast, Martin and Neil get stuck into the newly promoted teams, and their great starts to the Premier League Season.

Then it's VOICE OF PASSION, and who'd have thought that Neil would take issue with referees... again?

Next, it's Martin's Letter from the Gantry, which is a goodbye and tribute to the legendary Gerry Harrison.

After that, the return of Three of the Best, where youngsters Max Dowman, Rio Ngumoha and Estêvão all have their moments to shine! 

And we finish with Feedback, where Martin and Neil go through some of your comments - including from our recent episode with the one and only John Terry.

On this week’s episode of the Joy of Football Podcast, Martin and Neil start by reflecting on the life of Diogo Jota, and how it has rocked the football world. He will be sorely missed by all.

Next, we have some audience feedback! Some lovely, some calling Neil... Loud. This isn't untrue.

After that it's Martin's Letter from the Gantry, where he reflects on commentating the Premier League Asia Trophy, down the years. Then, Neil's voice of passion is all about the moving of different players, to different continents, at different times, and how this affects different tournaments.

Then it's on to Three of the best, which inevitably comes back round to Diogo, and the impact of his passing on teammates.

Lastly, we have Stoppage Time, where Martin catches us up on the progress of his passion project: "The Greatest Game Never Seen".

We start the show with our usual segment of Three of the Best where Neil talks about the U21 Euros and just how good Harvey Elliott has been, whereas Martin stays In America for his picks; even sharing a conversation he had with former Real Madrid, Manchester City and Juventus defender- Danilo!

Martin's letter from the Gantry follows on from this as he discusses what it is like to commentate in the Lincoln Financial field, with insight into the teams that have played there under his watch!

After this Neil shares his concern around Referee's suggests that penalties and free kicks should be awarded if fouls are committed before a corner comes in?! Winding down in the show we have a fitting 'Over land and sea' segment where the two talk about the increase of match delays due to weather, speculating if this will be a problem in the 2026 World Cup.
We end this week with a stoppage time, Neil Barnett has noticed a trend of managers using water breaks as an opportunity to give tactics to the team and he does not like it!
