Football Ramble

The finale is here! And Pete brings perhaps the best episode of the lot for you today. We pick things up at the start of April, where barns were burning everywhere, Nottingham Forest’s X admin was setting fire to bridges everywhere, and the Premier League approached its exciting conclusion. And don’t forget some memorable s**thousery overseas – from suspicious activity in Hungary’s U14s league, to a Dutch referee officiating a game and then lifting the title for one of the teams. All that and much more on today’s final Football Ramble Best Of 2023/24! We're back on stage and tickets are out NOW!

Before you listen to this episode, we want to set one thing straight: despite Pete’s accusations, Marcus does not smoke crack cocaine. All right? All right. Marcus, Jim and Pete catch up with the world of club football and quickly remember why Harry Redknapp definitely still records Match of the Day on his YouView box. The FA continue their hunt for the next England manager, with Eddie Howe now taking centre stage – Marcus, though, still thinks they’ll hold out for Pep Guardiola!

We’ve had Sven, Capello, McClaren and Hodgson come before him - so how will we remember Gareth Southgate? Marcus, Luke and Andy wonder why the English public keep saying the same things about England over the years, and whether winning a tournament would actually change anything. Elsewhere in less soul-searching, heartfelt matters, we work out who we’d support if/when England get knocked out and decide which country has the best food to be armed with going into battle.

It’s business time. And up yours, England are still in the mix. Marcus, Luke and Jim are joined by Andy – fresh back from Germany – to preview the knockouts and discuss our favourites for the tournament now we know what (the incredibly unbalanced) draw looks like. Plus, Gareth Southgate is to blame for bad Guinness, Anthony Gordon flies over the handlebars of his bike rather than down the wing, and there’s mosquitoes in the Germany camp and – wait for it – Italian spies up Stuttgart's TV tower.

Goodbye to the group stages! And it finished with a magnificent day for Georgia, a terrible day for António Silva, and a reminder for Pete Donaldson that Cenk Tosun exists. Pete, Jim and Vish discuss the final round of group stage sparring before the knockouts, with a sensational display from Georgia who are rapidly becoming our favourite team.

Somehow, England have finished top of their group. And somehow, they’re in the best side of the draw. The plan worked! Marcus, Luke, Vish and Pete react to a drab 0-0 that saw no big changes from the previous game and leaves them thinking there are bigger problems with England’s front line. At least we can cling to Anthony Gordon and Cole Palmer. Oh, and we can still enjoy a nice glass of Budweiser with Geoff Hurst, of course.
