Be our football ranks.

Hello and welcome to be our football ranks, your favourite football podcast, live and direct from London in these troubled times.

My name is Jack Collins and I will be your host today.

And joining me as ever the twin turbo engines of this podcast, Two of the finest minds in football journalism.

Firstly, Mr Sam Thai.

Hello, mate.

How are you?

Not too bad, mate.

And yourself?
