    Roger and Grant are back with a bumper Goal/Own Goal packed full of sharp takes, laughs, and the occasional existential sigh. From fiery Scottish football chaos to Fulham’s admirable fight against Arsenal, the lads cover it all — with detours into baseball brilliance, darts drama, and a cheeky OnlyFans scandal that has Roger lost for words. Expect passionate debate on fan boycotts, Ange’s downfall, AI’s economic bubble, and the creeping influence of Saudi money in global sport. Thoughtful, hilarious, and utterly unfiltered — it’s GOG at its best: sport, business, absurdity, and humanity, all colliding beautifully.

    AYNE 743 - The Confessional: Danny Townsend

    In Episode 3 of The Confessional, Roger Mitchell sits down with Danny Townsend. Ex-pro footballer, former A-League commissioner, and now CEO of Surge, Saudi Arabia’s sports investment powerhouse. A candid exploration of leadership, sacrifice, and conviction, Townsend opens up about the personal costs behind global success, including what it means to ask forgiveness from family, and the lessons learned when loyalty isn’t returned. He reflects on the “A-League Grand Final deal” that turned him into a lightning rod and how surviving that shaped his philosophy on governance, courage, and accountability. From building a global sports tech company to steering the Saudi sports revolution, Townsend reveals how resilience, risk-taking, and purpose drive him forward. This isn’t gossip or glory. It’s an unfiltered study of ambition, integrity, and belief in progress. Sponsored by Pedal Labs.
