    The Drop In: Ian Holloway and finding the fun in football

    The Drop In: Ian Holloway and finding the fun in football

    “Sacked in the morning? Don’t think so.”
    Ian Holloway has so many famous one-liners that there are two entire books just of his quotes. But there’s more to him than those soundbites.
    Kate sits down with the former Crystal Palace, QPR and Blackpool manager to discuss how he’s brought up three deaf children, how that’s informed his management in incredible ways, and his view of the chaotic relegation scrap this season!

    Carnival season is here! That’s right, it’s Ronaldinho’s birthday…

    The Ramble: Don’t back down Mitrović

    The Ramble: Don’t back down Mitrović

    “Don’t back down, double down”. Aleksandar Mitrović appears to have been following the advice of Limmy this weekend. Was the incident even that bad? Chris Sutton thinks it was, so we probably have to disagree.
    Today Marcus, Vish, Jim and Pete relive a weekend in which football seemed to malfunction and the end result was glorious chaos. Vish questions whether an Arsenal-supporting AI bot has taken over Antonio Conte and we hoot with delight at the thought of Roy Hodgson returning to his Selhurst Park nest. We're also concerned for Fizzer now that the Kim Kardashian curse could be coming to Miami. You don’t want to miss this.

TurkishDLight ,

One of the best podcasts around

Fantastic for years, still going strong. Loving the new daily episodes.

Davescott94 ,

Should change the name.

As stand alone shows the new format is ok. But for some inexplicable reason the 4 original lads which we all enjoyed listening to on he same show, have decided to “freshen it up”.... that would have been fine if you had kept at least 1 or 2 shows in the original format. I presume this was Luke’s idea, because he is so ‘woke’ he could not live with himself in the old format haha. All joking aside guys, it wasn’t broken.
