Little Earthquakes: Rochdale hold Spurs, West Brom suffer after Taxigate and Man United fall afoul of VAR Feb 19, 2018

Show notes

This week brings wonderful drama from the FA Cup courtesy of Rochdale and their manager Keith Hill, a man who in a way is all of our dads, Carlos Carvalhal distracts from a goalless draw with some welcome Police Academy chat and in The Championship Mimin’ Mick McCarthy is gloriously tetchy after the Old Farm Derby.

As well as all this precious gold there’s the novel concept of tackling above the head, some retro Portsmouth organisational slapstick and some sausage-based fun north of the border.

WikiPetes: Man City and Liverpool break records in Europe, Carvalhal returns to Sheffield and Wigan look for another FA Cup upset Feb 15, 2018

Show notes

After a time getting acquainted with Claude Puel’s radiator Riyad Mahrez is ready for FA Cup action, as are Spurs as they head to Rochdale’s obstacle course of a pitch, and Man United hope to cause an upset by finding a way past Huddersfield.

There are special days for Neymar and Kevin Keegan, an expose on the devious Going for Glold tactics of our dear host and a lot of painful, disruptive head turning.

Outspent by Wrexham: The North London derby, victorious Newcastle and penalty drama at Stoke Feb 12, 2018

Show notes

This show features that rarest of beasts; a happy Pete Donaldson, giddy from a Newcastle win and a mutant chicken binge. Not only that, we have the North London Derby, chaos between Stoke and Brighton and more importantly, a penis being seen.

If that isn’t enough there’s also time for revelations about football’s bald illuminati, Tim Sherwood’s surprising sideline and our interest being piqued by the concept of a solution to the “not quite a yellow, not quite a red” problem.

Never kiss a man’s hat Feb 08, 2018

Show notes

The North London Derby looms and will be particularly interesting as diving has now officially been declared fine, Ederson eases Man City’s injury crisis by reinventing himself as a midfielder and David Moyes gets a cheerleader in the form of fun-time Patrice Evra.

We also shine a light on the maudlin nature of Antonio Conte’s current work, discover that fruit may work as an injury treatment and peak behind the curtain to meet playground bully Marcus Speller.

Wanyamarama Feb 05, 2018

Show notes

Jurgen Klopp pops his top at Anfield after more referee related grievances (but luckily Pete’s devised a novel way to improve them once and for all), Arsenal roar back into the title race and the relegation scrap stays determinedly tight.

Elsewhere there’s a welcome return for Ramble (Marcus) favourite Joe the Goal, we make a splash in Vietnam and there are worrying developments in Russia as yet more insects threaten to invade an international football tournament.

100 Broken Windows Feb 01, 2018

Show notes

As another transfer window slams dramatically and confusingly shut we do our best to assess who has done well and what Arsenal were actually planning, Dele Alli shows all the signs of following in the footsteps of many an England great at the World Cup and those resurgent swans of Swansea start to fly up the table.

Within our usual ‘professionality’ there’s also talk of club therapists leaking information to the press, confusion at the gates of Wembley and a delightful airport tantrum.

Newcastle United: The Mike Ashley Years Jan 30, 2018

Show notes

And there you were thinking there'd be no action at St James's Park on Transfer Deadline Day!

As promised in the 12 Rambles of Christmas we’re back to shine a light on Mike Ashley’s reign of errors at Newcastle United, courtesy of competition winner Matt Baker!

There’s the return (and subsequent mugging off) of Kevin Keegan, the Cockney Mafia, Joe Kinnear swearing, a lot, er Alan Pardew also swearing, Alan Pardew head-butting and, of course, POWER DRINKING.

Here’s hoping a great club gets the ownership it deserves soon, but until then, well you've got to laugh haven't you?

Having a giraffe Jan 29, 2018

Show notes

The FA Cup rolls on with a delightful cameo from Shola Ameobi, West Ham fans get angry and we hear more tales of humility from Man of the People Carlos Tevez. Elsewhere Mick McCarthy turns a phrase, Leeds get lost in translation and Marcus gets his hope back.

There’s also time to hear about Luke’s trip to Fratton Park, play a vintage edition of Going for Glold and an honest assessment of Rodney Parade.

Marcus Smeller Jan 25, 2018

Show notes

It’s FA Cup weekend again and Marcus’ soothsmelling nose sniffs a cup upset, the Class of ’92 make some noise to check that nobody has forgotten they were really good and as usual there’s plenty of weasel chat.

As we further survey the footballing land we spy on Chelsea’s transfers shenanigans, yet more woe from the Stadium of Light and, as is only correct, Neil Warnock is heavily involved.

Liberal with the widdle Jan 22, 2018

Show notes

An eventful show as Watford engage in their traditional managerial sacking, Man United and Arsenal engage in the lesser-spotted swap deal and Chelsea for some reason continue their attempts to create a basketball team.

And there’s more! Marcus has a new crush, we learn about Sean Dyche’s seduction techniques, Carlos Tevez gets some bad press and Jim strikes a blow in his ongoing yet previously unmentioned war with Roger Federer.
