    Will Spurs regret betting on De Zerbi?

    After just 44 days in charge, Spurs parted company with Igor Tudor - making him the third manager sacked since last June… with the club just one point above the relegation zone, Roberto De Zerbi has been tasked with saving their season. But is he the right man to stave off the Championship? It’s only been a couple months since his own sensational exit at Marseille, but what actually happened? And after facing down protests in France, sections of the Tottenham fanbase are already voicing their concerns over De Zerbi's very public defence of Mason Greenwood. Gabby and Mark are joined by host of The Fighting C**k Flav Bateman & Marseille based journalist George Boxall. 📩 Got a question?

    Are football's new 'Ultras' a force for good?

    The fan phenomenon of ‘Ultras’ has taken Scotland by storm… TIFO’s, flares and drums - like we’re used to seeing in Europe - popping up everywhere from the Old Firm right down to the 4th division. So can this sub-culture be a force for good in an online sphere dominated by the ‘manosphere’ or is it actually just another mask for something more sinister? Gabby & Mark are joined by Andy Hughes, host of The Crime Agents - who has spent time undercover reporting on football hooliganism in England, and Blair McNally - who has amassed millions of views online documenting Scottish ultras. 📩 Got a question?

    Mo Salah reveals he’ll be leaving Liverpool at the end of this season, Erling Haaland buys one of the last remaining Viking texts in existence & Ben White is back in the England squad for the first time since 2022. And following a Gold rush for Team GB at a sensational World Indoor Championships, 3000m winner Josh Kerr joins us in studio to talk about regaining his title a year after injury, the money he still owed from Michael Johnson's 'Grand Slam Track' and that 'night night' celebration to his rival. 📩 Got a question?

    Ellie Kildunne: "I've won the World Cup, what now?"

    Gabby goes down to the England Rugby training ground ahead of the Women's Six Nations to meet former World Player of the Year Ellie Kildunne and her fellow World Cup winner Jess Breach. The duo scored 11 tries between them at the World Cup before England lifted the trophy at Twickenham in front of the second biggest crowd ever for a World Cup final, men's or women. Ellie was named runner-up at SPOTY, and even tattooed head coach John Mitchell! Now they go again in the Six Nations, with a new captain, fresh faces and a target on their back. How do they get themselves motivated to go again at the Six Nations after that World Cup high? How is Meg Jones settling in as captain? Do they get recognised way more after the summer's success? And has Ellie tattooed any of her team mates? 📩 Got a question?

    How Morocco snatched Senegal's AFCON crown

    It has been like the longest VAR ruling in history… the match finished two months ago, the Africa Cup of Nations trophy was presented, the considerable celebrations and recriminations were complete. And then, just as some last-16 Champions League fixtures were finishing on Tuesday night, a communication dropped from CAF. Senegal had actually forfeited the match by staging their now infamous walk-off and Morocco are AFCON champions via a technicality. But why has this taken so long? Can you really strip a country of a title? And what happens next? Former Sierra Leone captain Steven Caulker and Co Host of the ‘On The Whistle’ podcast, Zayn Naabi both join Gabby and Mark. 📩 Got a question?

    Why were so many English clubs humbled in Champions League?

    Weeks ago we were talking about English dominance in Europe, now just Liverpool and Arsenal make it to the quarter finals of the Champions League. Manchester City, Chelsea, Newcastle and Spurs were dumped out, conceding 28 goals between them in the round of 16… so what happened? Liam Rosenior said his players were tired… but was that ‘dominance’ even there in the first place? Or is the scheduling of English football harming clubs performances in Europe. Meanwhile, Bodo/Glimt were on the verge of a historic Champions League quarter final, with a capitulation in Lisbon seeing their fairytale journey come to an end…Or has it? How did a town with a population that could fit inside the Etihad stadium make it this far? Can other smaller clubs follow suit? And how is this season’s success all Spurs’s fault? Norwegian football expert Lars Sivertsen joins Gabby and Mark. 📩 Got a question?

    Max 'Dow-Mania': How to protect a prodigy?

    What were you doing when you were 16 years and 73 days old?... Max Dowman was last seen gliding across the length of a Premier League pitch, scoring a goal that rewrote history… and maybe even tilted a title race. Max ‘Dowmania’ may be upon us but as the predictable calls start for Dowman to be thrust into England’s World Cup plans for this summer - has football got any better at protecting its prodigious talents? Ex-Arsenal Head of Academy Sports Medicine & Athletic Development between 2012-2021, Des Ryan, joins Gabby and Mark for an insight into Hale End. Plus, was this the best Six Nations ever and are Gabby & Mark coordinating their outfits on purpose now? 📩 Got a question?

    Playing in front of a record 80,000 fans at Twickenham, captaining your country in a World Cup final and winning World Rugby’s Player of the Year… all in a day's work for Sophie De Goede. All that despite returning from a huge ACL injury just one month before the World Cup, Canada crowdfunding to get there, and training against teammates' partners to make up the numbers. Sophie joins Gabby and Mark to talk about where women's rugby goes next.
