    Mailbag: Where have all the elite managers gone?

    Mailbag: Where have all the elite managers gone?

    Bayern want the Burnley manager, while Chelsea want the Ipswich, Brentford and Leicester managers. So, where did all the established ‘super coaches’ go? Or are the super clubs just in a right old s**t state and no one wants to be Louis van Gaaled?
    Marcus, Jim and Vish offer their theories on today’s Mailbag. Plus, daft suggestions for a fourth domestic cup competition and a listener asks us for our extremely niche football awards. Most Crimson Red Card of the Season, anyone? Come join us!

    The Preview Show: Manchester United can’t jump

    The Preview Show: Manchester United can’t jump

    What will it take for Man United to beat Man City in this weekend’s FA Cup final? Computer hacking? Marcus, Vish, Jim and Pete genuinely have no answers on today's Ramble. Poor Vish.
    Elsewhere, the lads hail future pub quiz answer Ademola Lookman and Jim makes the case for Steve Bruce taking the Man United job while Pete backs him to go on I’m a Celebrity instead. Vish also argues that pub Sunday roasts are overrated... outrageous!

    Lions Watch: Who should make England's final squad?

    Lions Watch: Who should make England's final squad?

    Gareth Southgate’s provisional squad is out! So, who would we drop for the final 26? Marcus and Luke discuss that on today’s Lions Watch.
    Plus, a listener asks perhaps the biggest question heading into the tournament: how can England get the best out of Phil Foden? Marcus explains why playing Foden and Bellingham together isn’t another Frank Lampard-Steven Gerrard problem. And do we find ourselves agreeing with Paul Merson?!

    Come home José

    Come home José

    José Mourinho, Erik ten Hag and Frank Lampard... they’re just some of the names that Marcus, Luke, Jim and Andy want for the Chelsea job now Mauricio Pochettino has left. But Chelsea also have another HUGE decision to make: do they keep the lemons?
    Elsewhere, there is the small matter of England’s provisional squad for Euro 2024. Plus, the Ramblers bring you news of Scott Carson getting in a fight and a Dutch referee who has been banned for the best reason ever!

    Our 2023/24 Premier League predictions revealed

    Our 2023/24 Premier League predictions revealed

    It’s everyone’s favourite time of the year – the time where we get to show off exactly how much we (don’t) know about football. That’s right, we’re revealing our predictions!
    Which Rambler thought Chelsea would win the league? Who guessed that West Ham would be relegated? And who correctly predicted a moment of “notable mad s***” from the latest Premier League season?\
    Today, Marcus, Luke, Pete and Vish reveal all. And no… the answer to all of those questions is NOT Pete Donaldson.

Simply the best…

…”soccer” podcast going. You will not find another that so expertly mixes absurdity, insight and humor. Your funniest, sharpest friends bantering about the sport, almost every day of the week.

Been listening for about ten years and still laugh out loud and learn something new every episode.

As an American listener can I make a personal request for you guys to do more American accents. Marcus’s impression of your tour booker (“Milwaukee’s nice but it’s not like you gotta go theah”) still makes me lol.

Oh also guys, why the complicated grammatical variations of “what’s good for your club is not necessarily what’s good for the ramble”? It’s simple: “what’s bad for your club is good for the ramble.” Print it on a hoodie and take my money.
