On this week's show, Stuart Rayner and Leon Wobschall join host Mark Singleston and start off by celebrating the promise shown by Barnsley in their 5-0 thrashing of Luton Town – a result which left them just three points outside of the play-off places. Bradford City had to settle for a point at in-form Bolton Wanderers, enough to move them up to second in the standings and give them confidence going into this weekend's League One clash at home to Exeter City. Following a 2-1 defeat at home to Aston Villa, the panel discuss the growing pressure on Leeds United manager Daniel Farke after seeing his team drop into the bottom three. And the team assess the Steel City derby which ended in a 3-0 win for Sheffield United and what needs to happen next for both the Blades and the Owls going forward. Finally, hopes are high at Middlesbrough after their appointment of Kim Hellberg as Rob Edwards' replacement at the Riverside – does he have what it takes to maintain Boro's good start to the season? And this week sees Stuart choose the team of the week, with Leon singling out the player of the week.

Luton were absolutely hammered at Oakwell as Barnsley smashed five past a side that looked miles off it from the first whistle. Pathetic, outrageous, embarrassing… take your pick. It was one of those days where nothing worked and everything fell apart. A still-fuming Kev is joined by The Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe to break down a horror show of a performance.  The lads go through every messy moment: the early warning signs, the complete loss of control, the shambolic defending and the bizarre post-match interview that only made tempers worse. Where do Town go from here? Has the honeymoon already ended for manager Jack Wilshere? What has to change immediately to avoid this becoming another downward spiral? All that and much more on the longest-running, award-winning Luton Town podcast.

Ron Futcher (born 25 September 1956) is an English former footballer who played as a centre-forward. He was the fourth-highest career scorer of the North American Soccer League and made over 400 appearances in total for nine different English Football League clubs. He was noted for his aerial ability and solid ball control.He began his career at Chester before moving on to Luton Town the following year. He signed with Manchester City in August 1978 but left Maine Road the following year to concentrate on his career in the United States with the Minnesota Kicks. After the club disbanded, he moved on to Portland Timbers and then the Tulsa Roughnecks, winning the Soccer Bowl in 1983. The next year, he returned to England with Barnsley, following a brief spell with Dutch side NAC Breda. He signed with Oldham Athletic in 1985, and then transferred to Bradford City in 1987. He was bought by Port Vale in August 1988 for £35,000. He helped the "Valiants" to win promotion out of the Third Division via the play-offs in 1989. He was sold on to Burnley for £60,000 in November 1989 before moving on to Crewe Alexandra. He announced his retirement the next year after a brief spell in the Conference with Boston United.

On this week's episode Michael brings you some huge career news and once again delves into the lives of his brilliant guests. We're joined by Barnsley midfielder Patrick Kelly, who made his senior international debut on Monday for Northern Ireland. We discuss his time with Coleraine and how he's found the move to England with time at West Ham and Doncaster Rovers before his transfer to The Tykes.Fred Magee MBE reflects on dedicating over half a century to football in this country from his beloved Harland and Wolff Welders to his matchday role with the Irish Football Association and much more.Plus we chat to goalkeeper Nathan Gartside whose heroics helped to send Carrick Rangers to their first Co. Antrim Shield final since 1992/1993 season!

The Town head to Oakwell on Saturday looking for a fourth straight win in Barnsley, and Kev is joined by The Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe to preview a match we sincerely hope will involve actual football after the Rotherham non-event. The boys start by breaking down Barnsley's biggest threats and why this isn't the assignment some Luton fans think it is. From their danger men to the tactical traps the Tykes like to spring, the chaps look at where Jack Wilshere's side must be switched on. Attention then turns to the Hatters: will there be changes, who comes in, and how exactly Luton can hurt Barnsley? The lads debate the key selection calls, the best blueprint for three points and whether this game sparks into life. All this, plus score predictions, fan concerns, optimism checks and a few laughs along the way on the longest running, award winning Luton Town podcast.

On this week's show, host Mark Singleton is joined by Yorkshire Post football writers Stuart Rayner and Leon Wobschall to discuss the latest issues surrounding the Yorkshire football scene. They start in the Premier League and Leeds United and how much cause for concern there should be for their survival following their 3-1 defeat at Nottingham Forest – their fourth loss in five games.The team also look at Doncaster Rovers and their contrasting week in terms of Yorkshire derby results – losing 2-1 at home to Barnsley in the league before rebounding with a 3-1 win over Bradford City in the EFL Trophy. Huddersfield Town produced a 3-1 win over Plymouth Argyle a result which didn't just relieve some of the pressure on manager Lee Grant, but also left them just three points off the play-off places. Earlier this week, the sorry saga of Rob Edwards' departure from Middlesbrough – after just four months at the helm – in order to return to his former club Wolves, left a sour taste in the mouth on Teesside – now it is a question of who will succeed him. Finally, this week, Stuart will pick out his Team of the Week, while Leon hones in on the standout player of the week. 

On this week's show, host Mark Singleton is joined by The YP's chief football writer Stuart Rayner and football reporter Tom Coates. They start by delving into how realistic a relegation battle may be for Sheffield United as they remain rooted in the Championship's  bottom three following back-to-back losses to Derby County and leaders Coventry City. They also cast an eye over any causes for concern there may be for Leeds United following their 3-0 defeat Brighton before looking at the first round of the FA Cup which produced only two Yorkshire winners in Barnsley and Doncaster Rovers. They consider who the forthcoming international break benefits the most out of Yorkshire's 11 Premier League and EFL clubs before picking out a Team of the Week and Player of the Week.

And even more animals than that are invoked to describe Reading's loss to Barnsley, which saw the Royals plummet back into the relegation zone. The boys pay particular attention to the defensive mistakes that cost the team this week, and wonder how things could be improved.

‘He fired three shots at him, two of which took effect in the head and spine, and he fell to the ground...'  On a spring morning in 1888, an enraged labourer stormed into his workplace, a brickworks, with a small revolver. Striding decisively towards William Berridge - the foreman who had fired him just hours ago - the man fired three shots into Berridge's leg, head and torso. By midday, he's in a cell, charged with intent to kill. But how was this violent crime prosecuted?   In part two, Jen and David are looking at another shooting which took place in Barnsley, just weeks apart from the murder of Eileen Burke. They compare how the criminal justice system handled these two cases, reflecting on the role of class in sentencing and punishment.  Discover the details for yourself in the episode's Case Files - a collection of all the key newspaper reports - available to browse for free on Findmypast: www.findmypast.co.uk/wasjusticeserved  Was justice served?

‘He found the child dead and saw Dr Burke drop the revolver on the hearthrug and stagger to the side of the room, where he lay down on a seat...'  On a cold February night, in a Barnsley pub, an unimaginable tragedy took place. Inebriated on expensive champagne, a local doctor waved a revolver around wildly. As his terrified wife fled the room to get help, a bullet rang through the air. Its target: their 9-year-old daughter Eileen. What could explain this horrific act? How did the courts – and the community – respond in the wake of such a crime?  In the first episode of this two-part special, Jen and David look at one of the ‘Barnsley Murders' - two shootings that took place just weeks apart - and reflect on the impact of social class on its verdict. In part two, they'll be turning their attention towards a shockingly similar crime with a very different outcome.  Discover the details for yourself in the episode's Case Files - a collection of all the key newspaper reports - available to browse for free on Findmypast: www.findmypast.co.uk/wasjusticeserved  Was justice served?

In the summer of 1849, Patrick O'Connor, a prosperous London customs officer, vanished without warning. His trail ended in a quiet Bermondsey house, home to Frederick and Maria Manning—a married couple bound to him by secrets and suspicion. When O'Connor's body was found buried beneath their kitchen floor, whispers of greed, betrayal, and hidden passions spread across London.

Archie, Dan, Mark and Tom unpack a chaotic — and ultimately deeply disappointing — opening day at Home Park, as Argyle fall to a 3–1 defeat to Barnsley. Disallowed goals, defensive horror shows, and a nightmare debut for Wiredu all feature in a performance that raised more questions than answers.There's tactical chat, referee gripes, and a look at what the substitutions did (or didn't) change.In Part 2, the panel reflect on what the result might tell us about the season ahead — including the state of the squad, the need for signings, and the importance of the next few games.They also share thoughts on the recent Fans' Forum and look ahead to next week's trip to Bolton — where, off the pitch, we'll come up against plenty of familiar faces. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Archie, Chris and Mark get together a matter of minutes after the Lionesses' penalty victory for the penultimate pre-season Pilgrims Podcast.Special guest Aaron Cusack provides deep insight in a review of the Bristol City friendly defeat and what Argyle should look to continue, and what perhaps they need to develop, for the League One season ahead.Thoughts then inevitably turn to player recruitment and the need for a number 9 — unless a superstar is already in there somewhere, of course…Part 2 explores the shape and size of the squad as a whole, thoughts and expectations for the season ahead, and perhaps the worst ideas ever recorded for 48 hours in Britain's Ocean City. There is doom, there is outrageous positivity; it's that time of the year though, isn't it?Bring on Barnsley. COYG. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Our guest for this episode is the hilarious actor and social media star Clara Batten! We talk about everything from writing books and kickstarting your career to what it's like to have dinner with Boris Johnson. Clara tells us how she makes her brilliant reaction videos, and what the people she's reacting to make of them. We discuss how she got banned and then unbanned from Instagram, and how her comedy has helped her return to acting after a 20 year break. We also talk about Clara's desert island drinks, her exciting new project with a close personal friend of ours, and we play a quick round of Wine Game. To finish, there are some superb Scummy Mummy Confessions, and Helen rounds everything off nicely by spectacularly insulting our guest. You can follow Clara on the socials @clara_batten_.

313: Ellie's Dad - life lessons, a quiz, and some "jokes" What are the lyrics to Happy Birthday? What is the correct term for male swimwear? Who is Jennifer Lopez? Ellie's Dad knows the answer to none of these questions, and we are here to mock him for it. Yes, it's a Father's Day Special as Jim returns to the podcast. We discuss Crystal Palace's FA cup win, aka the best day of his life. He shares the number one nugget of wisdom he's learned after 78 years on the planet, and Ellie comes up with a new plan to monetise him in his old age. There are some quiz questions, and Confessions involving a Turkish airport, two clothes steamers, and the Virgin Mary. Listen right to the end for a classic Dad joke. Trigger warning: this episode includes several instances of Jim singing, plus an impression of Joe McElderry by Ellie. If you have been affected by any of the singing on this podcast, we can only apologise. Ellie's Dad isn't on social media. But you can follow him around at our gigs. WE ARE ON OUR!
