Pol Ballus was watching Barcelona in the Copa del Rey, we’ve got Lisa Nandy from The Athletic FC and…erm…a bit of an announcement… Presenter: Iain Macintosh With: James Pearce, Jay Harris, Pol Ballus, Lisa Nandy Producer: Si Watts Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Newcastle are on their way to Wembley (and are Leeds on their way to the Premier League?)
    Feb 5 2025
    Any concerns that Newcastle would bottle their chance of a trip to Wembley proved extremely wide of the mark. They tore into Arsenal and thoroughly deserved their 2-0 victory. George Caulkin was there and he is happy, James McNicholas was there and he is rather less so. We had Beren Cross watching Leeds win again, Dermot Corrigan saw Real Madrid get a fright at Leganes and James Pearce joins us to discuss Liverpool’s transfer window. Listen here.

  • Have Man City spent wisely (and do Real Madrid have a point?)
    Feb 4 2025

They bought four players in the window, but will they be enough to prevent Pep Guardiola’s empire from crumbling? Rory Smith thinks not And Real Madrid have complained very loudly about VAR “manipulating” the game against them. Thomas Hill Lopez Menchero is here to tell us if they have a point. Plus we’ve got news from all of the big games around Europe too. Presenter: Iain Macintosh With: Si Watts, Tomas Hill Lopez-Menchero Producer: Si Watts Learn more about your ad choices.
