    Do England need a makeover after Six Nations collapse?

    Just two weeks ago it was a completely different story for England at the Six Nations. From undefeated in 12 games and to two losses on the bounce. Spare a thought for the England fans who bought tickets to the final weekend in Paris, thinking it would be a Grand Slam decider… But are we all overreacting? Do England need to change to avoid the unthinkable against Italy? And what does this mean in the build up to next year’s World Cup? Gabby and Mark are joined by ex-England rugby player David Flatman. Plus, we reflect on the best moments of the Winter Olympics and are Spurs in trouble? 📩 Got a question?

  2. Is Russia's ban from world sport over?

    Is Russia's ban from world sport over?

    Russian and Belarusian athletes will be allowed to represent their countries at the upcoming Winter Paralympics. For the first time since 2014, since Russia’s state-sponsored doping programme and the war with Ukraine, we will see the Russian flag and potentially hear the anthem. Ukrainian officials are boycotting, but FIFA President, Gianni Infantino, has also recently said he wants to lift football’s ban on Russia. This all comes after Ukrainian skeleton athlete, Vladyslav Heraskevych, was disqualified from the Winter Olympics for wearing a helmet showing Ukrainians killed in the war. So, is this the beginning of something? Could we see Russia compete at the LA Summer Olympics in 2028? Or even the World Cup? Mark and Gabby speak to The Athletic's Matt Slater. Plus, we look back at the best bits on The Sports Agents this week, from welcoming double Winter Olympic gold medallist Matt Weston, to discussing abuse in football with former England striker Emile Heskey. 📩 Got a question?

    From Vinicius Jr to grassroots: how can football stop abuse?

    In the Champions League this week Real Madrid's Vinicius Junior stopped the match after alleged racial abuse by Gianluca Prestianni. Prestianni denies it ever happened. Today Gabby and Mark discuss the fall out from the incident. And later they're joined by former England striker Emile Heskey who’s launching the Football Safety App to help fight abuse in football and make it easier to report. All that, plus what it's like being a dad of two sons hoping to follow in his footsteps. Gabby and Mark also ask whether Mikel Arteta should keep his job if Arsenal do bottle it, following their draw at Wolves. 📩 Got a question?

    Is the Winter Olympics better than the Summer Olympics?

    It was 3 golds for Team GB at the Winter Olympics over the weekend! That’s a new record… And the man who won two of them, Matt Weston, joins Gabby and Mark today. This is coming from a country that doesn’t even have a skeleton track to train on! How are Team GB punching above their weight? And are the Winter Olympics giving the Summer Olympics a run for their money?

    Auld Enemy & Grand Slam Stakes: can Scotland stop England?

    What a week we’ve had here on The Sports Agents, from penis-gate, to Winter Olympics heartbreak and Premier League managers getting sacked. This weekend sees Scotland host the Auld enemy at Murrayfield as they take on England for the Calcutta Cup. Love might not be in the air north of the border, but there were remnants in the studio - as Gabby welcomed her husband and former Scottish winger Kenny Logan onto the show. England’s Six Nations title charge, mounting pressure on Scotland head coach Gregor Townsend, and what does Valentine's Day look like in the Logan household? 📩 Got a question?

    Frank out, Dyche gone, Tuchel commits - Are football's power brokers panicking?

    It’s been a busy 48 hours since our last show… Spurs decided to sack head coach Thomas Frank after just 8 months in charge. How right Frank was when he told us on this show: “If I ever got the offer from a bigger club and I decided to go there, it would probably not make my life better”. And at about midnight on Wednesday night news broke that Nottingham Forest had sacked their third manager this season, Sean Dyche, after just 114 days in the job. At this rate, maybe only Thomas Tuchel will still be in a job until 2028? Mark is joined by The Athletic’s Tottenham Reporter, Jay Harris, and the former Liverpool & Chelsea Managing Director, and Aston Villa CEO, Christian Purslow, who is also the co-host of The Football Boardroom podcast with Henry Winter. 📩 Got a question?

    'Penis-gate' & Should Lindsey Vonn have dared to ski?

    So far the Winter Olympics have been incredible, awe-inspiring and down-right bizarre. From reports of penis injections in order to ‘fly further’, to the heartbreak of 41-year-old skiing icon Lindsey Vonn, who crashed out at 60 mph after just 13 seconds. Gabby and Mark are joined by former Olympic skier Chemmy Alcott and CNN sports anchor Amanda Davies, who are out in Italy. All that plus Mark and Gabby interview 2026’s answer to Torville and Dean - Lilah Fear and Lewis Gibson - who’ve been dancing to none other than the Spice Girls. Plus we chat about a sopping wet Six Nations, the Man United fan who might finally cut his hair, the Super Bowl, and why Mark's being compared to Bad Bunny. 📩 Got a question?
