    Elsewhere, Luke makes the case for Sam Allardyce’s Bolton to return to the Premier League, Marcus shares his plans to stop time-wasting and Jim invents a new strange managerial version of Capture the Flag. It’s the Mailbag!

  • It was heartbreak for Aston Villa last night – but at least Matty Cash isn’t in the throes of a zombie apocalypse.


    Marcus, Luke, Jim and Andy reflect on Olympiacos’ ascent to Mount Olympus with the Europa Conference League trophy and wonder if Bayer Leverkusen will ever lose again after they broke the European record. There’s also a huge weekend in the title race to get stuck into, Fulham’s owner appearing in a wrestling match, and Nobby Solano’s return to the north-east!

  • Marcus and Luke are back with the second edition of Lions Watch before Euro 2024! This week, they react to the news that a creaky Harry Maguire might be even more creaky come June: that’s because he reportedly won’t be fit for the FA Cup final.


    After the battle between England’s young midfielders on Monday night left people clamouring for Adam Wharton, Marcus and Luke debate who joins Rice and Bellingham in midfield – and why it might be time for Southgate to (gasp) experiment a little bit. Plus, it’s Michael Owen’s turn on The Take Thermometer! I wonder how he got on

  • Real Madrid did it AGAIN! They beat Bayern Munich 2-1 and it was all thanks to that man Joselu. Well, and Manuel Neuer’s slippery hands.


    Marcus and Vish react to a vintage Champions League semi-final at the Bernabeu and try to figure out where Harry Kane can go next to win a trophy. Plus, does Vish want Thomas Tuchel at Man United?

  • Marcus Speller’s Aunty is giddy: an Englishman is going to win the Champions League! He’s joined by Luke, Andy and Vish to celebrate Dortmund returning to Wembley for a Champions League final and try to decide how to make things better for PSG. Should we let them in the Premier League?


    Elsewhere, Marcus shows some concern for Casemiro after his recent form and the Ramble community officially nails its colours to the Erik ten Hag Mast, as the lads hope he will stay at Man United for another season. Plus, what’s next for David The Ferryman Moyes, after it was announced that his time at West Ham is coming to an end.

  • Found out. Finished podcast. Marcus, Jim and Vish are frauds.


    We’re back to look over a jam-packed weekend! Ipswich are back in the Premier League, while Jamie Vardy’s daughter tells 30,000 people to f**k off. 


    Meanwhile, was thrashings galore in the Premier League, with Sheffield United and West Ham kindly providing some end-of-season vouchers. Plus, we hear Roy Keane’s stare, the lads speculate how the Premier League will mug Burnley off in the most ridiculous way possible, and Marcus tips a 37-year-old National League player for the England squad. It’s getting out of hand now.

  • Are penalties really a lottery? Is it harder to play against 10 men? Should a goalkeeper never be beaten at their near post? Today, Marcus, Jim and Vish are on hand to debunk some of the biggest myths in football.


    Elsewhere, they debate whether one-club men are a thing of the past and which players Man United definitely SHOULD sign this summer (for the good of the Ramble, of course). Plus, Vish pitches for a new cooking show with Bukayo Saka and Giorgio Chiellini.

  • Vish has always said this: Australians are unpredictable. You simply do not know where you stand with ‘em.


    And that was the same for most of Spurs’ XI last night in yet another defeat at Stamford Bridge. Marcus, Jim, ACAB Brassell and the V2 Rocket himself discuss a huge night for both clubs that left Son Heung-Min and Pierre Emile-Hojbjerg shoving each other and Mauricio Pochettino signing an XL bully.


    Plus, Graeme Souness chucks another opinion out from his conservatory, Andy takes on the Old Bill in Greece, and Big Dunc tells the Inverness board he's staying. Plus, HUGE revelations that Vish had a certain Luke Aaron Moore muted on Twitter until very recently. Stay tuned.

  • The road to Euro 2024 starts TODAY! Marcus and Luke are back with their third ever series of Lions Watch, where you’ll find everything you need to know about the England men’s national team – and plenty you don’t.


    Today, England are officially favourites: so, how do we feel about it? Plus, Luke argues why it’s time to fire the Eric Dier signal and Marcus shares his worries about a robot serving the squad at their resort in Germany. Could be espionage, could be Sammy Lee inside a metal box.

  • An old money derby in the Champions League semi-final, it doesn’t get more grand than that, eh? Today, Marcus, Jim, Vish and Andy are here to speculate what Jude Bellingham said to Harry Kane and analyse Kane’s new penalty technique ahead of the Euros.


    Elsewhere, Jim compares Howard Webb and Michael Owen to a South American dictator and Vish compares Man United to car boot sale. Plus, the Ramblers award Jamie Vardy goal of the season for smashing the ball into the roof of an empty net.

  • Boo? Yeah, boo. Luke was amongst the confused boo boys at Spurs yesterday after a first half full of promise and a second half full of Cristian Romero taking matters into his own hands left them point-less against that pesky Arsenal.


    He joins Marcus and Jim to react to a huge day for the Gunners and Anne Hathaway – plus, Everton get past their one big blob of problem to stay in the Premier League for another season, Erik ten Hag marvels at his sand house, and Jamie Vardy in Lethal Weapon.

  • The Premier League is the biggest cash cow in football – for better and for worse. So how can a spending cap work? A listener asks Marcus, Luke and Andy about the ripple effects – plus, favourite stadium entrances (including an escalator, yes please), a debate that’s dividing the Football Ramble Discord, and a question from Kathmandu in Nepal!

  • Did anyone see Kyle Walker lay an egg last night? Well, Jim Campbell did and he tells Marcus, Luke and Andy why he thinks it’s a good omen for Arsenal.


    Elsewhere, we ask: was Man City’s win so comfortable that it might encourage Oasis to get back together? Plus, Marcus questions whether Anne Hathaway is a fraud and Luke gives us exclusive insider information on why Matt Ritchie has been training for his Large Goods Vehicle licence.

  • As Liverpool found out, all the romantic farewell narrative in the world can’t stop a freshly tracksuit-bottomed Sean Dyche delivering a hammer blow to your title chances. And what a performance from that new lad, Daniel Calvert-Lewin!


    Marcus and Luke give their takes on a dismal night for Liverpool which needed a calm slot into the bottom corner, but instead got Darwin NĂșñez desperately smashing the ball into Jordan Pickford’s meaty thighs. Elsewhere, Erik ten Hag serves up smiley faces covered in chocolate sauce (again), there's an unwelcome reminder of Paul Jewell’s jewel, and we have live reports from Pete Donaldson on Jason Tindall Watch at Selhurst Park.

  • Marcus is calling for more corruption from officials after VAR correctly ruled out Coventry’s winner against Man United. At least the result means Erik ten Hag might keep his Job. So there is something for us all to enjoy.


    Elsewhere, Marcus, Jim and Pete investigate another huge conspiracy after hearing rumours that the VAR official in the Everton vs Forest game was a HUGE Football Ramble fan. Speaking of which, who invited José Mourinho to watch Liverpool play at Craven Cottage?

  • Pep Guardiola arrived at Manchester City almost 8 years ago. A reign that started with sacking Joe Hart has turned into one the most impactful managerial careers in Premier League history. Today, Marcus, Andy and Luke assess how Pep has revolutionised the English game.


    Elsewhere, Luke explains we it is a joke that the player of the season is being awarded already. Plus, the Ramblers re-call some of their favourite mass celebrations and assess what food would be best to fire out of a T-shirt gun. It’s another classic Mailbag!
