| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the TIFO football podcast. I'm Joe Devine and I'm now joined by Alex Stewart. Hi. |
| 0:11.3 | Seb Stapford-Blaw. Hello, Joe. We're going to be discussing a few different things today. We're going to start with 10 minutes on FIFA's stance. FIFA's new stance in the form of a statement. |
| 0:23.1 | That's my favourite kind of stance when it's a statement. |
| 0:25.9 | FIFA have been responding to the rumours that, you know, |
| 0:29.1 | discussions around a new European Super League are revolving around the big clubs |
| 0:33.5 | by saying that any player involved or any club, sorry, any club or player involved in such |
| 0:38.7 | competition, blah, blah, blah, would not be allowed to participate in competition organized by FIFA. |
| 0:43.3 | So they're World Cup and Euros ban, basically, which is quite a big thing. |

| 1:28.0 | the athletic that eclipses all of those things. And I want it more than I want anything else in |
| 1:34.4 | my life. For me, it's the long form. So this morning, before we started recording, I had a |
| 1:40.6 | reader Jack Lang's excellent interview with Sandra, who's one of my favourite Tottenham players of the last few decades. |
| 1:47.5 | Absolutely. |
| 1:48.0 | The career didn't quite pan out the way it was supposed to, |
| 1:50.3 | but Jack catches his fondness for, his lasting fondness for Spurs really nicely, |
| 1:54.9 | and it was a lovely way to start a Friday. |
| 1:57.1 | I don't know about you guys, but people can't touch me. |
