episode 24: S4 E24 - Cups, Transfers & Top 10's - Strikers


Will & Ben are joined again by Ali Campbell this week, discussing pending transfers like Eric Dier to Bayern, Jesse Lingard eyeing up a move to Barcelona (seriously, he's offered himself to them) plus a review of some of the FA Cup clashes and upsets, where the mighty Maidstone Utd are through to the 4th Round!

We couldn't do this episode without discussing Arsenal's poor form, as they continue to struggle infront of goal, and Ben ends up going on a huge rant after seemingly being...

episode 22: S4 E22 - Ikea Meatballs Changed My Life


It's that awkward time of the year, where some have fizzy heads, some are sick of the sight of their loved ones, but everybody has no clue what day of the week it is!

It's 27th of December, and FDP are back for a Christmas review of the games, the fixtures, and most importantly, the boys' Christmas'!

Most shockingly though, Will's never experienced Ikea's world famous meatballs, I know, "HOW?!" I hear you all ask, it's crazy but it's true!

episode 20: S4 E20 - Fulham Score For Fun


It's a double game week this week, which Will intelligently says twice. Some freak scores, Fulham banging in goals for fun after clearly listening to FDP over the last few weeks and listening to Will say they can't score goals or he doesn't see where the goals will come from. Manchester United fail to impress again, Bournemouth on the rise, Newcastle stutter, and Chelsea live up to their reputation of "what Chelsea will turn up" yet again...

We give you the run down of all the Premier League action too with Manchester City vs Liverpool kicking off a great weekend of football...

episode 17: S4 E17 - Everton


It's international break week which usually makes Will & Ben scratch around for content, however we have had shock waves throughout the Premier League this week as Everton are handed the biggest points deduction in EPL history as they failed to adhere to FFP rules. Is 10 pts too harsh? What about Manchester City and their 115 breaches? Plus we have an in-depth roundup of the euro leagues, WSL & Saudi Pro League...
