Will 17 MINUTES define Kinsky & Tudor at Spurs? Mar 12, 2026

Show notes

17 minutes was all it took for Igor Tudor to sub off Antonín Kinský on his Champions League debut after two mistakes and three goals conceded. Subbing a keeper is unheard of… so was Tudor right to make the change? Or with Spurs fans serenading Mauricio Pochettino on a plane - is it off with Tudor's head?

Then on Wednesday night, goalies also made the limelight... Filip Jörgensen’s mistake started Chelsea’s collapse to PSG, Gianluigi Donnarumma's penalty save just might keep Man City in it and Thibaut Courtois' assist!

Former Spurs, Liverpool, Villa and Blackburn goalkeeper Brad Friedel joins Gabby.

And later - just 12 days before the start of the Women’s AFCON, it has been postponed. And the only reason given? “Unforseen circumstances”.

The Guardian’s African Football Specialist Osasu Obayiuwana reacts.

Wales rugby... What crisis? Mar 10, 2026

Show notes

There’s been a lot of soul searching in England after the Six Nations disaster continued with their first ever loss to Italy. But for the team sitting one below them in the table, the problems run even deeper.

Wales were ranked top in the world in 2019, but now they have only won 2 of their last 26 matches. It’s so bad financially that one of four professional clubs will be cut.

So how did it get to this stage? Has football stolen the limelight after the 2016 Euro success? And what do Wales need to get back to their former glory? Wales’ most capped captain, Sam Warburton, joins us.

Plus Gabby and Mark chat about Wrexham and the success of their Hollywood ownersafter they came so close to beating Chelsea in the FA Cup.

Did England push Six Nations panic button? Mar 04, 2026

Show notes

It’s crunch time for England in the Six Nations this weekend. If they go from Grand Slam hopes to losing to Italy… it doesn’t bear thinking about.

Steve Borthwick has gone bold with 9 changes - very uncharacteristic for the man who worships consistency.

So is this Borthwick officially pushing the panic button? And could a mid-week visit from Thomas Tuchel help push them over the line? Gabby is joined by the Presenter of The Good, The Bad & The Rugby podcast, Alex Payne.

And later - what’s it like to set up a whole new football team from scratch and be ready to play in the top league straight away? We’ll be joined by manager Nick Cushing, who left the Man City Women and New York City Men to build Denver Summit.

Will US-Iran conflict derail Trump's World Cup? Mar 03, 2026

Show notes

War in the Middle East has cast a new shadow over the World Cup this summer. This is a human tragedy first and foremost but questions are being asked about the impact on the world’s most watched sporting event.

Could we see Iran pull out of the tournament? And is Gianni Infantino regretting his bromance with President Trump?

Plus, Gabby and Mark chat about Leeds manager Daniel Farke's red card and whether he runs like a butterfly, and why West Ham's Adama Traore has been banned from lifting weights.

Are World Cup fans in danger after Mexico cartel violence? Feb 27, 2026

Show notes

The recent killing of Mexican drug lord ‘El Mencho’ has caused unrest and cartel violence across the country. Guadalajara - one of Mexico’s host cities in this summer’s World Cup - was one of the worst affected.

So what state are we left in, just months away from the tournament? Should fans be worried about the threat of cartel violence? And with ICE and President Trump ever present in the U.S. - should more questions be asked of their hosting? Gabby and Mark are joined by The Athletic’s Adam Crafton.

Plus, we look back at the best bits from The Sports Agents this week - do England need a makeover after their Six Nations collapse? And how did Netflix's Drive To Survive grow Formula One's fan base by hundreds of millions, where three in four new fans are female?

Drive To Survive transformed F1 - how did they do it? Feb 26, 2026

Show notes

If we had a penny for every time we’ve spoken about Drive To Survive on this show, we would be rich. Formula One's Netflix series is the golden example of how to grow a sport by making it cool again.

F1’s global fan base has reportedly grown by hundreds of millions since Drive To Survive launched in 2019, and three in four new fans are female. So as Season 8 airs, has any other sports audience ever grown as fast and changed as much as F1, thanks to Drive To Survive?

Gabby and Mark are joined by two men at the heart of Drive To Survive and the F1 Movie with Brad Pitt: Executive Producer and Chief Broadcasting Officer of Formula 1, Ian Holmes, and motorsport journalist, Will Buxton, who also hosts Global’s F1 podcast, Up To Speed.

Plus Gabby and Mark discuss the Champions League and our quest to get Gabby to Bodo/Glimt, Harry Brook's century at the T20 World Cup, and Gabby's crossover with... Peppa Pig.

Do England need a makeover after Six Nations collapse? Feb 23, 2026

Show notes

Just two weeks ago it was a completely different story for England at the Six Nations. From undefeated in 12 games and to two losses on the bounce.

Spare a thought for the England fans who bought tickets to the final weekend in Paris, thinking it would be a Grand Slam decider…

But are we all overreacting? Do England need to change to avoid the unthinkable against Italy? And what does this mean in the build up to next year’s World Cup? Gabby and Mark are joined by ex-England rugby player David Flatman.

Plus, we reflect on the best moments of the Winter Olympics and are Spurs in trouble?

Is Russia's ban from world sport over? Feb 20, 2026

Show notes

Russian and Belarusian athletes will be allowed to represent their countries at the upcoming Winter Paralympics. For the first time since 2014, since Russia’s state-sponsored doping programme and the war with Ukraine, we will see the Russian flag and potentially hear the anthem.

Ukrainian officials are boycotting, but FIFA President, Gianni Infantino, has also recently said he wants to lift football’s ban on Russia.

This all comes after Ukrainian skeleton athlete, Vladyslav Heraskevych, was disqualified from the Winter Olympics for wearing a helmet showing Ukrainians killed in the war.

So, is this the beginning of something? Could we see Russia compete at the LA Summer Olympics in 2028? Or even the World Cup? Mark and Gabby speak to The Athletic's Matt Slater.

Plus, we look back at the best bits on The Sports Agents this week, from welcoming double Winter Olympic gold medallist Matt Weston, to discussing abuse in football with former England striker Emile Heskey.
