The Football Drop

Will's been away over the weekend and decided to try the local delicacy, by visiting McDonald's in Spain! His mind was absolutely truly blown by the fact they served beer, and energy drinks there, why can't the UK McDonald's do this!?

We talk goalkeeping heroics with Will's son Jack almost single handedly winning a football tournament for his team with not 1 but 2 penalty saves, but sadly came at a cost...

Back as the double act you know best, no not Ant & Dec but Will & Ben! The boys have a little euro update this week, with the likes of Stade Brestois, Girona and Bayer Leverkusen still performing admirably. The Carabao Cup final was on Sunday, and an in-depth look at the performance of both Chelsea & Liverpool. Entertaining game for the neutral, heartbreak for the blues, and joy for the reds...

Ben has finally returned to join Will & ali this week, and Will welcomes his back in the way he knows best, by taking the p*ss! We've had a few changes in managers over the last few days, with potentially more to follow, with Roy Hodgson leaving Crystal Palace and being replaced immediately by Oliver Glasner...

Ben is still absent but on the mend. Ali stands in again providing a very rare well done to Arsenal. You can actually hear the pain in his voice. This week we discuss that Savio deal, the implications it could cause globally, but mostly in Spain, France and England. The shockwaves could be huge. We also discuss the AFCON and Asian Cup finals. The game between Bayern and (champions in wait) Leverkusen...

Ben is unfortunately, but planned, off from the podcast this week, Will was left to his own devices and the IT. It seems to have gone ok so far, let us know your thoughts...

This week Will and Guest host Ali discuss the news, this ranges Profit and Sustainability issues in the January transfer window, Jude Bellingham and that incident playing for Real Madrid against Getafe. The Messi and Ronaldo reunion that didn't happen...

If you're an avid listener, you'll know we strive to be neutral (haha) where possible on the pod, but this special episode allows us to talk all things Arsenal. We had the pleasure to have Akhil Vyas join us on the show this week, one of the youngest ever board members of The Arsenal Supporters Trust...

The magic of the FA Cup is truly alive with one of our local teams Maidstone United travelling to Ipswich, and beating them in their own backyard 2-1 with a fantastic audacious lob goal for the first. Unfortunate scenes however as 1 fan got a little too excited and dramatically fell from the tiered stands, however luckily the fan is all okay and more pride is hurt than anything else! Plus a huge upset down in Newport as Manchester United surprised their hosts with a 4-2 win...

We've got a super special episode for you listeners this week! We're sure you've all watched Sky Sports News at some point, whether it's for transfer news, catch up from the weekends' games, or watching Soccer Saturday and seeing the team bounce around from stadiums all across the country. It's always informative, and sometimes even entertaining with Jeff & the team, or now with Simon & the team...

Will showcases his additional vocabulary throughout this week's episode to Ben & Ali, and just how his partner reacts to it, plus, do you know how to cook a chicken? Will tells us exactly how not to. Racism dominates the chat this week after some ugly scenes from Italy and Serie A with Mike Maignan suffering abuse and walking off the pitch...

The "winter break" as it's called has started this week, so only 5 games to review with the boys, but we have some big news stories including the sad news of Sven and the scenes at both Bolton & Reading over the weekend.

Ben & Will's Friday night stories are shared, plus we discuss our top 10's of the season so far, this week covering defenders...
