S4 E28 - Mighty Maidstone & Top 10's - Midfielders
Explicit content warning
01/31/24 • 44 min
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.
Some big news coming from several clubs over the weekend, with the shock announcement from Liverpool FC and Jurgen Klopp, plus Xavi and Barcelona too.
Ben will be sadly taking a break for a few weeks from the podcast whilst he undergoes his operation after this weeks' episode, but Ali Campbell will be stepping in, making his predictions, and finishing our Top 10's of the season so far. This week brings you the Top 10's Midfielders which include CDM and CM, but not the traditional number 10 position.

FDP Special - Rob Jones; Sky Sports
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. But, have you ever wondered just how it all works behind the scenes? What do the reporters endure throughout the day, how do they know when it's going to be their turn to be live on screen, when they're in the studio presenting, and some huge breaking news story unfolds, how is that all communicated?
Well, Rob Jones, the Sky Sports legend joins us this week to share exactly what happens behind the scenes, and shares his awesome career and how from a young age knew he wanted to get into Sports Journalism, and just how hard he has worked to get to where he is, and the sheer joy of doing what he does for a career. Plus he shares a few mishap stories along the way for you!
Honestly, it's a fascinating episode, absolutely loved this one and we know you all will too!

FDP Special - Akhil Vyas; Arsenal Supporters Trust
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. Akhil tells us all about the role AST plays in the running of Arsenal FC, the dynamic and relationship with previously Red & White Holdings and subsequently KSE (Kroenke Sports Entertainment), and his particular role.
Akhil also shares some of his most painful memories of being a Gooner, like the '06 UEFA Champions League final defeat to Barcelona or the horrific 6-0 demolition by Chelsea on Arsene Wenger's 1000th game in charge, and how he see's the team now with players like Saka and Martinelli flourishing.
Arsenal fans, you're going to love this!
