Hello, this is international football commentator Derek Ray, and you're listening to the Ranks FC podcast.

Hello, Ranks Squad and welcome to Ranks FC.

It's your favourite transatlantic football podcast back again for another week.

My name's Jack Collins and I'll be your host today and join me across the water in San Diego, Mr. Dean Jones. How you doing, mate? Hello, mate. Yeah, I'm very good. I'm especially good, Jack, because it's your ranking this

week. And I feel a bit bad about it because when it comes to this pod, you basically do everything,

right? You host it, you produce it, you sort out guests, you pay the bills, you do everything.

And I just turn up basically when you tell me to and do like rankings or talk about transfers.

So I appreciate you for even putting up with me.

But today, you proposed that this show, along with a couple of others, I thought, do you know what?

This one just jumped at me.

I thought, I really, really like it, but I don't think I can do it.

I think this is a Jack Collins production.

So it is basically the Jack Collins show today.

And I think it's a really good hook.

I think it's a good show because it's the sort of thing that everybody can then take into the workplace or take into school or take to the pub and have an informed opinion when you start chatting about who the best team around is right now.

Like this is what ranks is all about. Like this is what Ranks is all about.

Like this is about like carrying on normal conversations that you have in day-to-day life with

your mate, but giving you some fuel and ammunition to win those arguments.

Yeah, I mean, look, it would be a very, very boring show if it was just me for four hours

a week, yabbering on.

So I think four hours a show i reckon

you'll be doing mate i don't think you'll keep it to an hour someone needs to shut me up so it's important
