December 03, 2015 13:22 - 45 minutes - 36.5 MB

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink is set to leave League One leaders Burton Albion to take up the vacant managers position at Queens Park Rangers. We ask, is it the right move for him and the Hoops? Ashley Wilkinson, Burton Albion reporter for the Burton Mail also gives us his thoughts on what it means for the Brewers.   After Dean Smith made the decision to swap the Banks's Stadium for life with the Bees, we also wonder what's in store for the ex Walsall boss at Brentford. Joseph Masi from the Exp...

October 12, 2015 22:03 - 1 hour - 59 MB

As our special month of themed shows continues, the boys take a trip to one of England's most historic footballing cities, Nottingham.

September 09, 2015 13:32 - 57 minutes - 46.7 MB

May 20, 2015 01:21 - 49 minutes - 45.1 MB

Wembley awaits!

Episode 155 - Final day drama

May 06, 2015 10:21 - 1 hour - 56.5 MB

It's all over for another year. The final weekend of the Football League season saw the usual mix of blood, sweat and tears, not to mention the odd pitch invasion or two (including one with a man on a mobility scooter). The boys are back together in London to look back over an incredible weekend.   MK Dons clinched the final automatic promotion spot in League One with a 5-1 drubbing of Yeovil on Sunday lunchtime at Stadiummk, whilst Preston slipped to a shock 1-0 defeat at Colchester.

Mini Episode: Millwall sack Ian Holloway

March 11, 2015 14:44 - 24 minutes - 22.2 MB

The curse strikes again. Less than twelve hours after recording our latest show, another Football League manager has bitten the bullet. This time the axe has fallen on Ian Holloway, who has been sacked by Millwall following Saturday's 4-1 defeat at home to Norwich.   The Lions sit 23rd in the Championship table after five defeats from their last six games, a run which has left them eight points from safety and staring relegation to League One in the face.   David Cameron Walker catches u...

Episode 150 - Ten games from glory

March 10, 2015 14:28 - 59 minutes - 54.9 MB

With just ten games of the season remaining, the Championship promotion race looks set to be one of the most exciting of all time, with the top five clubs separated by just one single point. Incredible.   In fact eight clubs still realistically have their eyes on a place in the Premier League next season, including Steve McClaren's Derby County, who blew a 2-0 lead in injury time against Birmingham at the iPro on Saturday, dropping two valuable points in the process.   The boys catch up ...

... and it's LIVE! The boys are back with a bumper live podcast, recorded this weekend down at the ABAX Stadium, aka London Road, home of Peterborough United.   The Posh have been in the headlines following the sacking of their manager Darren Ferguson last Saturday.

February 18, 2015 11:29 - 55 minutes - 51.4 MB

January 21, 2015 13:03 - 55 minutes - 44.4 MB

Wolves beat Blackpool 2-0 at Molineux last weekend to make it an impressive five wins from their last six Championship games. However, that run has been completely overshadowed by the sad news last week that their former chairman Sir Jack Hayward had passed away in Florida, aged 91. Hayward owned his boyhood club for seventeen years and pumped in £70 million of his own cash, which helped them finally clinch promotion to the Premier League back in 2003.   The boys discuss his life and legac...

Documentary: Football and the Great War

December 22, 2014 16:49 - 45 minutes - 42.1 MB

On Christmas Eve 1914, all went quiet on the Western Front. The screaming stopped. The rifles relented. The brutality and bloodshed were broken up. British and German troops laid down their weapons and walked out of their trenches. They shook hands, they exchanged gifts and they played football.   But one hundred years on from the Christmas Truce, what do we know about the footballers that went to war? Those that swapped standing side by side on the field of play, for fighting side by side...

After thirteen consecutive years of Championship football, Ipswich Town fans are starting to dream. The Tractor Boys completed an unbeaten November with a last gasp 1-0 win at Charlton on Saturday (their fourth win in five games), which has lifted them into the automatic promotion places.

Despite the absence of the suspended Ross McCormack, could they make it four home wins in a row against the Tangerin...

September 03, 2014 10:29 - 50 minutes - 46.3 MB

Despite the season being less than a month old, it's already chaos at Leeds United.   Following four defeats and four red cards in August, head coach David Hockaday was sacked, just seventy days after taking over at Elland Road. Their 2-1 Capital One Cup defeat by neighbours Bradford last week was the final straw, as Hockaday became the second boss fired in just four months by new 'president' Massimo Cellino.   In this special, we speak to Leon Wobschall, football writer at the Yorkshire...
