Silly sausages: Burnley gub Bournemouth, Man United struggle at home and King Kev speaks out
24 september 2018 · 54 min
Welcome to your cat’s favourite podcast (all will be revealed inside) in which we bask in the glory of Burnley’s lovely weekend and ponder a future that features Aaron Lennon tearing it up for England. It could happen, shut up. Lees meer
Over at Old Trafford something still doesn’t seem quite right but luckily for Jose Mourinho we have a solution, we dream of a night out with Jamie Vardy, Geoff Shreeves gets some long overdue pelters, and there’s a welcome return for Antonio Cassano.

Football: Liverpool have a lovely time, Man City not so much and Burnley need to wake up
20 september 2018 · 45 min
A trio of returns to the Ramble headlines for Daniel Sturridge, Tony Blair and Pete’s former pop-punk outfit One Eyed Willy this week, surprising us as much as anyone else. We look back over some delicious Champions League action, improvise a kind of Neil Warnock fanfic and continue to give Jose Mourinho immense credit. Lees meer
Elsewhere Sven continues to be the gift that keeps on giving, Keggy pops up and there’s more flying food. The last two things are unrelated, but that’s probably temporary.

Pies in the sky: Liverpool pass the Spurs test, Man United impress and Arsenal vanquish Newcastle
17 september 2018 · 46 min
Hello. Us again. We’re here to dissect another excellent weekend of football, discussing who the Messiest goalkeeper in the league is - it’s not Petr Cech - West Ham’s birthday form and Pete’s trip to The Sports Direct Massive Mugdome. Lees meer
We also make the case to add further end of season awards, bask in the glory of Zlatan’s 500th career goal and learn that people are going wild about Hartlepool.

A fruity affair: Big George Weah rides again, Spurs host Liverpool and more pressure for Mourinho
13 september 2018 · 43 min
The Premier League is back after the new-look international break and we’re all fascinated to see if it will be enough to wake up sleepy Harry Kane. There’s much to look forward to: Marcus Rashford hopefully getting a run out, Danny Ings back from a blister, MIKE DEAN. Lees meer
On top of all this there is the welcome and hopefully permanent return to international football for George Weah, a retrospective on the work of the band 5ive and, as ever, some Donaldson gripes.

Ramble Meets...Michael Owen
12 september 2018 · 29 min
Michael Owen crashed on to the scene in May 1997 in a Premier League game for Liverpool against Wimbledon, and marked it with a goal. Obviously. From then on his career was a whirlwind that involved setting international tournaments alight, a move abroad to the biggest club in the world, injuries, and goals. Lots and lots of goals. Lees meer
Marcus caught up with Michael for this latest edition of Ramble Meets... to discuss his career, what it takes to get to the very top, a certain night in St Etienne in the summer of 1998, and how he views his time at Real Madrid.
This episode of Ramble Meets... is available to acast+ subscribers from Wednesday 5th September, and all Football Ramble subscribers a week later from the 12th.
This interview took place at Pro:Direct LDN19 for the launch of Umbro’s Speciali 98 collection, a boot inspired by that night in St. Etienne. To check out the full collection head over to prodirectsoccer.com.

Terrible buses: England fall short, Scotland are undone, and Pete has a bee in his bonnet
10 september 2018 · 50 min
England’s attempts to get the rave on came unstuck against Spain but it doesn’t dampen our enthusiasm for the UEFA Nations League. We get aboard the Fabian Delph hype train, ponder the locations of Gareth Southgate’s waistcoats and generally cut England some slack. Lees meer
Aside from the other notable international action we also reflect on Fort William’s latest gubbing, from Keith, no less, hear tales of Dennis Wise’s manners, and listen in wonder as Pete’s war on phrases continues.

Confusement: The UEFA Nations League begins, England regroup and Denmark make do
6 september 2018 · 48 min
It’s coming home again as England prepare for the inaugural UEFA Nations League campaign, and what a confusing campaign it’ll be if the format is anything to go by. Full disclosure, we’re all for it. If anything it isn’t complicated enough. Lees meer
We talk about England’s renewed spirit, double agents in the Bundesliga and the need for legs, while we also enjoy the musings of Robert Earnshaw and flood the show with Pompey mentions.

Happy Gracia: Watford stay perfect, West Ham struggle and Arsenal muddle through
3 september 2018 · 53 min
The sun is shining for Watford as they simultaneously ruffle Spurs’ feathers and give us all a lesson in parenting. At Liverpool, Alisson Becker gives hope of a recall to The Substitute Keeper and Joe Hart knackers himself seeing off Paul Pogba’s silly run up. Lees meer
We have an unsolicited update on Pete’s vendettas where the emails are supposed to be, discover that Phil Neville knows his ice cream and are disappointed to hear of some very unFulhamish behaviour.

Tom Seluk: Newcastle brace themselves, Watford face a test and Jose Mourinho demands respect
30 augustus 2018 · 43 min
The Premier League says ta ta, Yaya, as Mr Toure heads off to Greece with a beautifully unnecessary parting dig from his agent, while across Manchester the Aretha Franklin tributes are starting to become a cause for concern at Hotel Mourinho. Lees meer
Elsewhere, Neil Warnock limbers up to try to cause an upset, Real Madrid send some suspiciously gracious correspondence and Going For Glold has its first full house of the season…

Ramble Meets...Carlos Carvalhal
29 augustus 2018 · 56 min
Across a 35-year career in football, Carlos Carvalhal has gone from a no-nonsense centre-half in his native Portugal to managing Swansea in the Premier League, via spells at Sporting, Besiktas and a 2.5 year stint at Sheffield Wednesday in which his side narrowly missed out on promotion to the Premier League in both his full seasons at the club. Lees meer
As the first working manager to appear in our Ramble Meets... series, Carlos offers his insight in what it takes to be a head coach at the top level in the modern game, how easy it is to spot talent, how to deal with a talented dressing room and much, much more.
This episode of Ramble Meets... is available to acast+ subscribers from Wednesday 22nd August, and all Football Ramble subscribers a week later from the 29th.

Entering the video room: Wolves hold Man City, Arsenal get off the mark, and Richarlison goes for a walk
27 augustus 2018 · 51 min
Hello everyone! Happy Monday! We're back in the saddle and ruminating over the weekend's games, starting with comeback kings Bournemouth and their draw against Everton, followed by a good chinwag about Arsenal's win over a slow-starting West Ham. Lees meer
Also on your all-new Ramble: Wolves roar, Roy Hodgson gets angry and a little big confused over a giant vespidae, Patrick Van Aanholt has a dig, and much, much more.

Engine room: Liverpool host Brighton, Wilshere returns to the Emirates, and Kenedy gets off scot-free
23 augustus 2018 · 44 min
It's Thursday so it must be time for another preview show from The Football Ramble! What ho! Lees meer
This time around, we're casting our eyes across buoyant Brighton's trip to Anfield - can Chris Hughton's United-slayers cause another upset? After that we anticipate Jack Wilshere's return to Arsenal in his capacity as 50% of West Ham's engine room, followed by Newcastle United hosting Chelsea and loads more.
There's also a dramatic Going for Glold and of course a Best Bet to look forward to, so strap yourselves in and get ready to head to Ramble Town. Let's go!

Adult diapers: Man United slip up at Brighton, Chelsea and Arsenal duke out a thriller, and Steve McClaren is up to his old tricks
20 augustus 2018 · 50 min
Here we go again! The Ramble's back for your aural delectation! To kick us off this week, Manchester United slip up on the south coast much to Brighton's delight, and Chelsea squeak past a profligate Arsenal at Stamford Bridge. Lees meer
Elsewhere in the Premier League Watford pick up a lovely result at Burnley, Spurs ease past Fulham, and Luke is particularly animated about West Ham's defending (or lack of it), something that would have undoubtedly won the award for most pathetic backline display of the weekend, had Steve McClaren not got his greasy mitts all over QPR.
There's also time for more WhatsApp goodness, a Fort William FC update and some Big Neville Southall-related activity into the bargain. Yes, sir!

Low percentage: Cardiff host Newcastle, Arsenal face another test, and Fulham head to Spurs
16 augustus 2018 · 44 min
It's almost the weekend which means it must be time for yet another preview show! And boy oh boy are there some games to sink our teeth into (there always are to be fair, because that's how football works). Lees meer
First up, Fulham head to Wembley to face Spurs and attempt to exorcise their Crystal Palace-related demons, and we ruminate on when those north Londoners are ever going to be in their new home. After that we applaud Mike Ashley's attempt to save the great British high street before taking a look at their appointment in Cardiff, before wondering if anyone is ever going to cut Unai Emery some slack.
There's also all your usual favourites, including emails, Going 4 Glold and lots more. To get involved, it's show@thefootballramble.com. Love you!

Arterial Routes: Man City and Liverpool off to a flyer, Bielsa's boys do the business, and willy waving at Wembley
13 augustus 2018 · 47 min
The Premier League is up and running, and so are Man City and Liverpool - both of whom recorded eye-catching wins against Arsenal and West Ham respectively. Elsewhere there's chat about a hard day at the office for Fulham, and a look at Wolves' point against Everton. Lees meer
As the Marcelo Bielsa era gets up and running, we wax lyrical about the effect the big Argentinian is having at Elland Road, and also find time to lament yet more poor behaviour from a Newcastle fan, this time at the Home of Football.

Jose's Judgement: United raise the curtain against Leicester, Emery makes his Arsenal bow, and West Ham's new boys head to Anfield
9 augustus 2018 · 48 min
It's the first Preview Show of the season! Huzzah! Lees meer
And what's more, there's plenty of football to sink our teeth into. First up, Manchester United host Leicester City at Old Trafford, which will undoubtedly give Jose Mourinho something to moan about.
Elsewhere across the weekend, there's an Arsenal face off against champions Man City in a stern test of Unai Emery's credentials, West Ham take a trip north to Liverpool, and Southampton host Burnley.
Obviously, there's plenty of the usual combi boiler chat as the listeners slowly start to get involved, more nonsense from the enigmatic Pete Donaldson, and a welcome return for Going For Glold. Don't miss it!

School's back in: Pep and City pick up another trophy, Sarri doesn't know his size, and Warnock's back in the big time
6 augustus 2018 · 51 min
Hello again friends, we're back and bloody excited for the new season! Lees meer
And there's plenty to get our teeth into as well - Pep Guardiola's Man City outwit Chelsea in the Community Shield, but we're still a way away from the full Sarrification of those Blues. There's also transfer news a go-go, particularly at Liverpool, and Jose Mourinho seems to be on a one-man mission to undermine everything at Old Trafford.
Meanwhile, the Championship is back with a bang, and Pete spends quite a bit of time comparing the show to a big bouncy castle. A tortured analogy, and probably not the last one you'll hear from him this season, let's be honest.

Ramble Meets... Matt Taylor
1 augustus 2018 · 48 min
In a football career spanning 19 years and counting, Matt Taylor has just about seen it all. From breaking into Luton Town's first team as a 17 year old, to achieving promotion to the Premier League twice with Portsmouth and West Ham, he is now a player/coach at Swindon Town. Lees meer
In this exclusive interview with The Football Ramble, Matt talks to Luke about his early experiences as a footballer looking to break through and start his career, what it was like scoring spectacular goals in the Premier League, what advice he gives to young players starting out at Swindon, and how, at the peak of his powers, he came very close to signing for Spurs.

Alongside that we look over an impressive, surgical win from France, enjoy a dig from Fabio Capello and learn to ‘drink more responsibility’. Needless to say, Cristiano has the last laugh.

It’s on! It’s happened! England were good! 1966! Scones! Bank holidays!

On top of this we look at Belgium’s controlled demolition of Panama, Sweden and South Korea going through the motions, and the opinions of a certain Diego Maradona.

Injuries. Every World Cup has them. Nobody likes them but they’re simply a part of the game. Sometimes their impact can define a nation’s tournament, while the panic over the loss of a key man can all be for nothing after a Lazarus-like recovery.
Here we look at the effects of injuries to David Beckham, Franco Baresi and Neymar, via the usual nonsense of rubbing photos to cure a broken foot, Jim’s recently discovered internal udders and Barry “Basher” Davies.
