Podcasts about Middlesbrough

Originally released for Patreons in April 2025 I hope you enjoy this very special episode. In the 32nd Patreon bonus podcast you join me in Teesside at a location which has served the town of Middlesbrough since 1889. An impressive building which has rose to infamy in recent years for its ghostly inhabitants, most famously that of a man who committed suicide while being held prisoner here. But what would happen when John, Tom and I dared to investigate this place, would we encounter the spirits said to lurk here within the darkness? So join me and let us ask, together, just how haunted is Middlesbrough Town Hall?  Join me for a Newcastle After Dark ghost walk. A small-group ghost walk exploring real locations across Newcastle after hours (running June to September 2026).

They were underestimated all season, with underlying data suggesting they were massively overperforming. They were the forgotten story amongst The Spygate scandal too. But Hull City clinched promotion on a scoring hot day at Wembley against Middlesbrough and are now back amongst the Premier League's elite. Hull City Correspondent Danny MacDonald makes his Planet FPL debut and joins James to discuss his journey as a Tigers fan and their story since relegation in 2017. Discussion also features the owner Acun Ilicali, manager Sergej Jakirovic, the style of the team and who from the squad is ready for the Premier League. Spoiler: Signings will be needed.

With the World Cup imminent, it's no surprise to see a flurry of transfer news. Even Everton are getting in the mix. Matt and Paddy look at the links to Hayden Hackney and the current state of play. Everton want him, he wants Everton, but is there too big a chasm in terms of Middlesbrough's valuation of the player? We also analyse Vitalii Mykolenko's new deal. It's a three-year contract for the left-back - is that the right decision? We finish with thoughts on the Friedkin Group after 18 months at the helm. Do we want to hear more from them? And how ambitious are their plans for the club?

Nottingham Forest have been linked with a move for £20m rated Middlesbrough midfielder Hayden Hackney, although Everton are reportedly leading the chase for the England Under-21 international according to The Athletic. However, Sky Sports and The Guardian say Forest remain keen on a player they tried to buy in January. With that in mind, we speak with the Teeside Gazette's Middlesbrough reporter Craig Johns to learn more about the player. #nffc #nottinghamforest

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is fast approaching, and Thomas Tuchel has finalized his England squad for the tournament. Frank and Eddie analyze some of his selections. Eddie explains that he understands that the inclusion of Henderson, Madueke, and Gordon shows that Tuchel wants a squad that fits his system, but will it work?  The Premier League season wrapped up with Arsenal as champions, Manchester City slipping up again, and Spurs narrowly avoiding relegation at the expense of West Ham. Roland Garros is underway in Paris, with some of the world's top players on both the ATP and WTA tours protesting prize money, but Eddie thinks they're being tone-deaf with some of their complaints.  Plus, Hull beat Middlesbrough in the Championship playoff final following the controversy of 'spygate'. The Enhanced Games failed to deliver many world records, and would you go out of your way to attend a championship parade?

On this week's episode of the Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Chris, and Sids wrap up another chaotic Premier League season… but not before getting distracted by AI-generated football conspiracies, military dolphins, and Declan Rice answering a FaceTime call LIVE on the podcast the morning after his 5am title celebrations.The lads dive into Arsenal finally getting over the line after 22 years of waiting, with an emotional live chat from Declan Rice fresh off the back of the celebrations, plus debate whether guards of honour have officially become the most awkward tradition in football.There's also discussion around Liverpool's uncertain future, Mohamed Salah's comments, Spurs surviving the drop, and the absolute madness surrounding Southampton's playoff controversy.Elsewhere, the pod spirals beautifully into conversations about fake AI football news, Jose Mourinho rumours, and whether anyone can actually trust the internet anymore.

It was a successful end to the 2025-2026 season for several CanMNT players, and none more than Liam Millar, who helped Hull City return to the Premier League after a dramatic promotion final win vs. Middlesbrough.

Alex, Ben and Brendan dive into all other happenings related to Canadians playing abroad, including the upcoming Concacaf Champions Cup final, which will feature CanMNT winger Marcelo Flores, who is hoping to help Tigres UNAL to a big win vs. Toluca, before closing out the show with some talk about the Canadian MLS teams.

It's the final Total Saints Podcast of the season, and unfortunately, there is still only one place to start: the fallout from Southampton's failed Spygate appeal.Martin is joined by Steve Grant, Glen de la Cour and George Rees-Julian to look back on another extraordinary few days at Saints, following the dismissal of the club's appeal against the EFL sanctions and the publication of the Independent Disciplinary Commission's written reasons. The panel discuss the seriousness of the findings, the pressure placed on junior members of staff, the club's handling of the situation, the ongoing FA investigation and the deafening silence from those in positions of leadership.There is also a lengthy discussion about Tonda Eckert's future, whether there is any realistic way back for him, and what Southampton now need to do to begin repairing the damage done to supporters, players, staff, commercial partners and the wider reputation of the club.Attention then turns to the summer ahead. With Saints now preparing for another season in the Championship, the panel look at which players are likely to stay or go, the uncertainty around Daniel Peretz, Aaron Ramsdale and the goalkeeper position, the sellable assets in midfield, and the decisions facing the club over players such as James Bree and Ross Stewart.The team also reflect briefly on Hull City's play-off final win over Middlesbrough, the likely needle when Saints and Boro meet again next season, and what the result said about the play-offs Saints were removed from.There is also time for the final TSP admin of the season, including the Prediction League winners, the signed Atlanta Primus shirt giveaway, Patreon-exclusive merch updates, thanks to our sponsors Steam Town Brewery and Paul Castle Associates, and a farewell to George Rees-Julian as he makes his final TSP appearance before leaving The Echo.

Ander Iturralde da la bienvenida a Rafa Pastrana y José Pérez para analizar todo lo ocurrido en el fin de semana final, la jornada 38, de la Premier League 2025-2026... Comenzando por el definitorio triunfo del Tottenham sobre el Everton para lograr su agónica salvación; a costa de un West Ham que ganó con rotundidad al Leeds pero fue demasiado poco, demasiado tarde en una temporada que ha supuesto su primer descenso en 15 años; mientras que veintidos han sido los años desde el último título de liga del Arsenal y tras ganar al Crystal Palace pudieron llevar a cabo la ceremonia del levantamiento del trofeo; al Manchester City, por su parte, le vimos perder contra el Aston Villa en una tarde de despedir a leyendas del club como jugadores y también su entrenador; algo que también hizo el Liverpool (de momento no del entrenador) en su empate final con el Brentford; algo por lo que tuvo que pasar el Bournemouth, empatar, contra el Nottingham Forest para no darse así ninguno de los tres resultados que necesitaba el equipo de Andoni Iraola para clasificar a la Champions; algo que debió saber casi igual de dulce, clasificarse para la Europa League, para el Sunderland tras una épica victoria final sobre el Chelsea; así como el Brighton cayó ante el Manchester United (de un Bruno Fernandes de récord) y a la Conference League; algo que ni siquieran podían alcanzar ni Fulham ni Newcastle pero fue el equipo de Marco Silva quien ganó; cosa que ni Burnley ni Wolverhampton pudieron hacer en su batalla por no terminar último de la Premier League; competición a la que asciende el Hull City tras ganar al Middlesbrough en la final del play-off y el Bolton, en la división, al Stockport; y mucho más.Apoya que Alineación Indebida pueda prosperar, accede a todo nuestro contenido premium y a nuestro server de Discord suscribiéndote por tan sólo 1.00$/1.00€ en: https://www.patreon.com/posts/159149217Además...

The relegation battle goes down to the final day of the season, and will Spurs do enough to stay ahead of West Ham and maintain their Premier League status? And the 'Spygate' punishment is in, should Middlesbrough feel very lucky to find themselves back in the Championship playoffs at the expense of Southampton?  Pep Guardiola's time at Manchester City has come to an end, with Enzo Maresca set to take charge at the Etihad, and Frank and Eddie look ahead to the next couple of seasons to predict who might be challenging for silverware over the next 5 years.

Welcome to Episode 379 of the Total Saints Podcast, your home for all things Southampton Football Club.Martin Starke is joined by Steve Grant, Glen de la Cour and Alfie House to look back on a dramatic few days for Saints, both on and off the pitch.This week, the panel begins with the story nobody expected to be discussing: Spygate. Middlesbrough accused Southampton of spying on a training session at their Rockliffe Park base, before the EFL confirmed that Saints had been charged with breaches of its regulations. The panel discuss what is currently known, how Saints may respond, whether the club are likely to contest the charge, and what kind of punishment could follow.Then it's on to the play-off semi-final itself, as Saints somehow left the Riverside with a 0-0 draw after a brutal first half against Middlesbrough. Boro dominated the opening 45 minutes, registering 17 shots while Saints failed to have one of their own, but Southampton stood firm thanks to some huge defensive moments from Taylor Harwood-Bellis, Nathan Wood, James Bree and Daniel Peretz.The second half brought a much-improved Saints performance, helped by the introduction of Ross Stewart and Shea Charles. The panel discuss why the first half went so badly, whether Flynn Downes' return helped or hindered the balance, the struggles of Caspar Jander and Finn Azaz, and whether Kim Hellberg's side may have already played their best football of the tie.There is also a look ahead to Tuesday night at St Mary's, where Saints will need one more big performance to keep the unbeaten league run going and book a place at Wembley. The panel give their score predictions and discuss the importance of the atmosphere, the coach arrival, and turning the fallout from the week into a proper siege mentality.Plus, there is a reminder for patrons in the Bobby Stokes, James Beattie, Francis Benali and Mick Channon tiers to complete the Patreon merch form by May 20th so the end-of-season exclusive merch packages can be prepared.We'll be back on Wednesday night at 7pm to react to the second leg.

In the end they had a four-point cushion, but Newport County certainly put their fans through wringer in avoiding relegation from the Football League. Two consecutive wins - for the first time this season, and both coming from behind - ensured their survival. How's that for grit and determination? But how can the club avoid another fight for survival next season? And will manager Christian Fuchs be around to build on his early promise?One goal was all that separated Wrexham from the Championship play-offs. They had their chances to beat Middlesbrough in the final game of the season, but the unrelenting rise up the divisions has come to a stop... for now. Is it inevitable, given the ambitions of the owners, that the club will reach the Premier League within the next three seasons?And after Sam brought down the curtain on a 20-year playing career on Saturday, he talks us through the emotions of his final appearance as a professional footballer...and how a 92-year-old Burnley fan made sure he was at Gillingham to say goodbye to his favourite player for the last time. It's "garden centres and school runs" for him now.
