Bants Republic LovefootballNG

It’s a wrap on this season of Bants Republic and how better to end than with a roundup of some of the major talking points from the year 2021. We also took the liberty of telling you what to expect from AFCON 2021 or is it 2022? Thank you so much for riding with us this season. We promise to come back bigger and better in 2022. Ciao!

In this episode we had a lifelong Arsenal fan in the studio talk to us about his journey as an Arsenal fan to date. We also tried to dissect that Smith Rowe goal for Arsenal, the Fred-McTominay situation, and our season expectations for both Arsenal and Man United moving forward.

In this episode, the team invites a guest to the studio to discuss the woes which have befallen that mighty football club in the red half of Manchester.

Who would have thought we would see the day when Messi would don the jersey of a football club situated outside Catalonia? Well the time has come and our belts are tightly buckled for the ride.

The stench of the financial rot at Barcelona FC has traveled the ends of the world, so that is no news, but seeing how much PSG and Manchester City are shipping out to acquire new talent, we cannot but wonder do they have the Biblical blood of the lamb on their doorposts which is warding off the spirit of Financial Fair Play from visiting their households?

Also, the countdown to the end of a hugely eventful summer transfer window this season is well and truly on. Should we expect any more surprises?

It's the off-season and preparation for the 2021/2022 football season is in full swing with pre-season matches and transfers.

In this episode we discuss those transfers that have caught our eyes with Giuseppe and Mr Wallywall being overly excited about Man United's business so far.

There's also a sprinkle of Olympics gist in there.

They say all (good) things must come to an end and so was the case with the Euro 2020 which we enjoyed thoroughly. We were sad to see it go but football is a gift that keeps on giving so there is definitely more to look forward to in this beautiful game of ours. 

In this episode of Bants Republic Podcast we had a lengthy debate about racism and hooliganism in football amongst other things, especially as we experienced it in this year's competition.
