    Blackpool: Going Home

    Blackpool was the scene of our first ever Who Are Ya episode, where we joined an Anti-Oyston protest march. Thanks to the hard work, dedication and persistence of Blackpool FC supporters, they Oystons have at long last been ousted.  Nearly two years after we recorded the first Who Are Ya, we joined the Blackpool fans again - as the Bloomfield Road turnstiles welcomed back so many old friends. Here is a short episode, where they tell us in their own words, what it means to be going home. Twitter: @WhoAreYaPod We'd love you to share this episode however you can.

    Football and Tragedy

    This episode is different from our usual club-focussed approach as we explore football’s relationship with tragedy. The history of football has unfortunately been littered with tragic events, but has football changed how it deals with death? Can football be a force for good in dealing with grief, or has the media turned death into spectacle?

    SS Lazio: Ultra Blues

    Ben flies to Rome in the latest episode of Who Are Ya to see Lazio in action. After the game, every time he tells people about his football experience, it always gets the same response. "That's the team with the fascist links?" Instead of sitting there and nodding along, Ben set out to learn more around the elephant in the room of I Biancocelesti, and ask Lazio fans Who Are Ya?

    Fleetwood Town: Fish Out Of Water

    In the summer of 2017, we went to Blackpool to document their struggles. Now though, we’re at another Fylde coast club with a very different story.  Fleetwood Town’s rise through the leagues has been an incredible journey and brought joy to a town that sorely needed it.  Tuesday nights, freezing cold winds, and a football club on the up. We ask Fleetwood Town... Who Are Ya?
