The main show is back. Pre-season friendlies have forming on the horizon, there's a Super Cup to be won, and we know the Premier League fixtures, well, until Sky Sports changes them. The World Cup is on, and while the transfer window is in stasis until the knockout rounds begin in earnest, there is a lot to get through.We catch up with all the latest news - a positive update on Boubacar Kamara, Villa's key FIFA appeal, progress on Aston train stations, and more.The Three Points section covers everything from FIFA causing a hotel crisis with a "vacuum of availability" in World Cup host cities to the pitch that caused Boubacar Kamara's injury being under the spotlight.Emery's Clipboard has a World Cup theme and Villa's English player's impact on the Premier League. In the main section of the show, we look at the often forgotten UEFA financial settlement — year two of three — that has not gone away. Most Villa fans understand there is something called PSR that clubs have to navigate. What is less well understood is that UEFA operates its own separate set of rules, and those rules are considerably harder. This is the lens through which everything happening this summer has to be read: the Rogers noise, the Martinez whispers, the quiet on incoming signings.UTVListen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.Check out all the 2026-27 home kit options and new training range, hereBecome a MOMS Member for ad-free & extra shows - MOMS MembershipJoin the show's listener Facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid | Chris Budd - @BUDD_music / Phillip Shaw - @prsgameThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

Did you want to hear all about The Rookie? Well, Lindy probably didn't either but that didn't stop her from listening to the whole thing now did it? No. No it didn't, so hit play boot! I don't love that they call the rookies boots, kinda demeaning especially when Tim is like the main one that does it especially in the later seasons like okay we get it Tim you're such a big strong man with a hero complex who punishes yourself to save everybody or some dumb shit like that okay fine. Anyway we also talk about Everwood coming back, which you can get excited for because it's one of Lindy's favorite tv shows of all time ever created, a completely endless list of possible shows and she picks this one. Like every show that has ever been created, including 300 some odd episodes of Nathan Fillion shows that I've seen all of in the past 60 days and this is what we get. Yikes. What show are we going to do next after Everwood? Maybe we just do a full Nathan pod and do an ep of each of his shows every week, like that one old PSR pod that randomly paired two big shows coming out simultaneously for some reason except we do it with oops all Fillion. Okay enough of this it's like 10pm and I just lost a fight with a nighttime terrorist who thinks sleep is for losers and big dumb idiots (me) so enjoy this nonsense. Learn more about your ad choices.

Seven years after his original appearance on Mental Health News Radio, artist and author Motesem Mansur returns with an update on his life, his art, and the journey from surviving difficult environments to finding stability, purpose, and peace.He shares how leaving unsafe situations transformed his mental health, how becoming an artist-in-residence helped him rebuild his life, and why creating art remains one of the most important ways he regulates his mind and emotions. Together, we talk about autism, schizoaffective disorder, creativity, reality testing, faith, healing, family relationships, and the role that art plays in helping us make sense of our inner worlds.His work can be found through the Intuit Art Museum in Chicago, Illinois, where he donates artwork that is sold to support the museum's mission. Listeners can also learn more about him by searching his name online and exploring his connections with Intuit Art Museum and Sertoma Star Services. This conversation is a reminder that sometimes the biggest transformation isn't becoming someone new. Sometimes it's finally finding a place where you can safely be yourself.Motesem Mansur was born on January 28, 1986, in Chicago, IL. He was diagnosed with autism at the age of three. Motesem developed mental illness at the age of 12. He dropped out of high school at 16 after being diagnosed with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.Motesem chose art and writing after getting his GED at the age of 17. He describes himself as an outsider artist and an independent writer. He draws from fantasy and sometimes surprises people with captivating drawings, with excellent color schemes and details. He compares them to video and computer games. Motesem's writings are informal and told in his own words.He graduated from Sertoma Centre's PSR program in 2012. He was a self published author, but his books are no longer in print. He was a guest speaker for Illinois schools from 2011-17. From 2017-22, Motesem was hospitalized 11 times. Motesem talks about being let go from Project Onward, a studio he worked for from 2010-22."The place was a rat race and a greed game with very low pay, I hated it. The staff didn't know what they were doing. When the studio that I worked for let me go, it was a blessing in disguise. Things got better. I've been out of the psych ward since 2022. I left an unhealthy environment. My mind is clear now, and I donate to charity and volunteer my time instead. I'm glad I left that horrible studio for good,"Nowadays, he lives at Lakefront Nursing Home in Chicago, IL. He donates artwork to the Intuit Art Museum in Chicago. He also volunteers his time to Sertoma Star Services, donating raffle items for events. Motesem still fits in the autism spectrum criteria.Personal website: https://www.artpal.com/moe8628Intuit Art Museum756 N.

Matt Price from Right Price Remodeling in Massachusetts targets the specific operational failure of keeping all project knowledge trapped inside the owner's head. Operating out of paranoia that employees might steal tools or steal jobs forces owners to stay on site constantly, leading to 90-hour work weeks and extreme stress.To resolve this friction, Matt introduced a mandatory 15-minute daily standup call with his foreman at 3:15 PM to discuss issues, fixes, and the next day's plan. By utilizing the PSR method, which requires foremen to present three solutions to any problem, Matt successfully removed himself from daily site operations and empowered his crew to turn around bathrooms in just two weeks. Taking total accountability for his business allowed him to finally step off the tools and lead remotely.Links & Resources: Handoff AI: handoff.aiArtificial intelligence software beta-tested by Matt to improve business operations.
PHP Podcast – June 17, 2026 Hosts: Sara Golemon & Holly Schilling | Guests: Paul Reinheimer & Sean Coates Eric and John are still locked in the basement. Sara is literally on a boat in Spain. Normal show, totally normal. Sara Broadcasts from a Harbor in A Coruña Sara is joining this week’s show from a marina in A Coruña, northwest Spain — in the Galicia region, where they speak Galician (not quite Spanish, not quite Portuguese). It’s 1am local time and the boat is visibly rocking on camera. Holly is holding down the fort from Chicago. This is what Sara calls pirate radio, except one of the pirates is actually on a boat. Meet the Guests: Paul Reinheimer & Sean Coates Paul Reinheimer and Sean Coates are PHP veterans from an earlier era — both were closely involved with PHP Architect around 2005–2010, back when Sara was already a PHP core contributor and the community was small enough to fit in one bar. Paul now runs Wonder Proxy, a service that lets you test your website’s behavior from locations around the world (checking GDPR banners, geo-targeted content, checkout flows, etc.), and is also building a startup called StudioWorks — business management software for creative studios, with an invoicing product and a proposals product in development. Sean is based in Montreal and has been spending time at a local hackerspace called Food Lab, where he got pulled into MeshTastic and MeshCore mesh networking, and is now surrounded by vintage computers, including a PDP-11 and five-and-a-quarter-inch floppy disks. The Quarter-Million-Line Commit Paul committed 250,000 lines of code directly to Wonder Proxy’s repo without a PR last week — and he’s not particularly sorry about it. The context: it was a pre-generated SQLite amalgamation file (all of SQLite compiled into a single C file), which Wonder Proxy is now checking in as a pinned static dependency rather than regenerating each build. Paul’s argument is unanswerable: you cannot meaningfully review 250,000 lines of generated C code in a PR. If there’s something malicious in there and you’re good with C, you could hide it in parameterized defines and no one would see it. The right approach, which Paul landed on, was creating a separate package with its own CI — and including the command to regenerate the amalgamation so reviewers can verify the output themselves, not just stare at the diff. Measuring Wrong — Sean’s Rant Sean has been ranting about this for 10–15 years and it hasn’t gotten less true: companies systematically measure things that make them look good and avoid measuring things that make them look bad. A marketing team adds a spin-to-win wheel to the homepage and celebrates their 1% sales increase. Nobody measures how many people found the wheel so obnoxious they immediately left. Cookie and GDPR banners are the same story — they go up, they’re never removed, and the conversion impact is never tracked because nobody wants to report bad news up the chain. Sean’s broader point: an epidemic of motivated measurement is a big part of why the web is as bad as it is. PHP in 2026 vs. PHP Then — What’s Still Working Paul’s honest take: the LAMP stack still works great. In 2004 you could build a productive web application with Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP — and you still can today. The fundamental approach is the same. Having since done Ruby at Stripe and other languages elsewhere, Paul keeps coming back to how much sense the PHP model makes to him. The longevity is the feature, not a bug. Wonder Proxy’s web app — built in server-side Swift using the Hummingbird framework — returns pages in under 50 milliseconds almost always and under 30 most of the time, with almost no client-side JavaScript. Server round trips are fast. The web doesn’t have to be seven seconds. Swift Concurrency and What PHP Could Learn Sara asked Sean — who has used Swift on the server for StudioWorks — what he’d want to see in PHP’s threading model. His answer: anything the compiler can enforce beats anything you have to remember yourself. Swift’s concurrency model has the compiler reject code that would allow a thread to trample on a sendable object after it’s been sent off. You find out about threading mistakes at compile time, not when corrupt data shows up in production. Sean’s verdict: an early warning system for threading problems is 10,000 times more valuable than discovering them too late. PHP’s async/await path is cooperative task switching (not true threading), which avoids some of these issues but can still deadlock if someone forgets to hand off control. Composer, require_once, and Supply Chain Security The chat raised whether anyone still uses require_once in the PSR-4 world. Sara’s answer: PHP.net does — it doesn’t use Composer at all, because the site needs to be framework and library agnostic. Grep for require_once across typical vendor dependencies and you’ll find around 100 instances still in the wild, mostly inside packages like Doctrine. The supply chain security conversation from there: Composer’s lock file pins to specific hashes, which is what you want — but a lot of projects don’t commit their lock file, and pinning to a version tag isn’t enough because tags can be updated if someone takes over a GitHub account. To really be safe, pin to a specific commit hash. It’s a pain to maintain, but it’s much harder to fake. The PHP Foundation — The Biggest Change in PHP Paul called out the PHP Foundation as the single biggest change in PHP since he and Sean were actively involved. Having an organization that can receive money from individual supporters and use it to fund core PHP work has been talked about since before PHP had package management. The foundation now has over 1,000 individual supporters — including Rasmus Lerdorf himself, which Sara found funny. Paul and Wonder Proxy support it financially; Wonder Proxy also holds a private Packagist account as an indirect way to fund Composer development. Sara works directly with the foundation on PHP core. Elizabeth Barron (from last week’s show) is doing exceptional work moving it forward. PHP.net Redesign and the Dark Mode Problem Sara copped to a php.net rabbit hole: she tried to implement dark mode for the site and succeeded everywhere except code samples. PHP’s built-in highlight_string() function has hard-coded colors that assume a light background, and there’s no way to override them. Sara wrote the patch to make the colors configurable at the internals level, then realized it should actually be a separate PHP project, then lost track of caring about it because it became yak shaving. On the redesign side: the foundation ran a competition to redesign the releases page (the per-version page with changelogs and download links), and the results look much better. The downloads page has been getting more beginner-friendly content — how to actually get PHP running, not just a reference manual. There are homepage mockups being iterated on as well. What Talk Would You Give? Sara asked both guests what conference talk they’d give if they were speaking today. Paul: marketing for developers. Too many developers believe “if you build it, they will come,” and AI is making this worse — the barrier to shipping something that looks professional has dropped so far that the noise floor is rising fast. Hollywood knows to spend as much on marketing as on production. Paul doesn’t claim to be good at marketing, but he thinks someone should be giving this talk at every developer conference. Sean: reliable deployment and supply chain integrity — specifically how to actually control the path from git to production without sneaking in vulnerabilities. Containers have helped, but there’s still a lot of infrastructure that fetches things at build or request time that is genuinely dangerous. PHP Tek 2027 The PHP Tek 2027 website is live at phptek.io.

Everton have been ordered by a Premier League Independent Disciplinary Commission to pay nearly £40 million in compensation and interest to Burnley following a legal claim over Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR) breaches. Host Ian Croll is joined by the Liverpool Echo's Everton FC correspondent Joe Thomas to break down a decision that the club has branded "fundamentally flawed in both law and fact." Burnley's case relies on the legal principle of 'loss of chance,' arguing that if Everton's point deduction had been applied during the 2021/22 season, the Blues would have been relegated and the Clarets would have stayed up. The club has already launched an official appeal, warning that this sets a "dangerous and unworkable precedent for English football." Ian and Joe discuss what this massive ruling means for the club's finances, how The Friedkin Group (TFG) is responding, and why the club insists this won't trigger any future PSR sanctions. What are your thoughts on this breaking news? Drop a comment below!
A bumper two-parter this week. Firstly, Matt and Patric look at the recent ruling that means Everton will have to pay £40m to Burnley over their PSR breaches in recent years. Is the ruling fair? And why are the Blues fuming? Rob then joins the conversation for the second part, as we look at the new contract for Vitalii Mykolenko and interest in Hayden Hackney.

Spurs stayed up so what does it actually mean for the money? Welcome to The Auditors, the new OSoS series on the financial side of Tottenham. In this first episode, Jim is joined by Nick (Corporate Finance) and Ben (Finance Professional) for a clear-eyed look at what survival actually buys us, financially. They walk through PSR and the new Squad Cost Ratio, where Spurs' headroom sits now (around 54% versus the relegation alternative of 93%), why the headline rise in costs was largely out of the club's control, and the gap between £100m–£230m of theoretical PSR room and the actual cash in the bank. Then the wider picture: how parachute payments would have softened but not solved a relegation, why West Ham are in genuine trouble, the truth about the Macquarie loan and ENIC's £100m capital injection, and the figurehead question hanging over Vinai, Charrington and the Lewis family's separate statements. Two more episodes of The Auditors follow: modelling the actual summer budget, and how to spend it within the constraint.

Aston Villa are Europa League winners. Three-nil against SC Freiburg on a rain-soaked Wednesday night in Istanbul, that ended in the early hours with a trophy cabinet that finally has something new in it.This post-mortem covers what actually happened — and what it means. From Youri Tielemans' opening volley, which settled every nerve in the ground the moment it hit the corner of the net, to a second-half of focused control. Three picture-perfect strikes. A goalkeeper who broke a finger in the warm-up and played on regardless. A fanbase that spent two seasons fluent in PSR and amortisation getting to remember what football is actually for.The show also gets into the detail: the jeopardy that never quite materialised, the Freiburg threat that had been flagged and was effectively nullified, and the moments where the game could have tilted differently — and didn't. There's a longer conversation about what winning a second major European trophy does to the meaning of the first one, why this squad's achievement is more improbable than it looks on paper, and what the summer now looks like through a completely different lens.Thirty years is a long time to wait. Istanbul was worth it.UTVCover photo courtesy of Paul StringerListen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.Become a MOMS Member for ad-free & extra shows - MOMS MembershipJoin the show's listener Facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid | Chris Budd - @BUDD_music / Phillip Shaw - @prsgameThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

PHP Podcast – April 30, 2026 Hosts: Eric Van Johnson & John Congdon Another fun episode of the PHP Podcast! Here’s what we covered: The Drone Slayer Strikes Eric and John wrapped up a Padres game at beautiful Petco Park in downtown San Diego — and things got weird on the way out. A rogue drone started buzzing around a busy intersection, lingering on a guy on a scooter, before making a fateful attempt to fly in front of Eric’s car. It did not make it. The controller came running out, Eric kept driving, and John has already dubbed him “the drone slayer.” Eric still hasn’t looked at whether his wife’s car got scratched, which feels like the bravest choice of all. Baseball Week Never Ends The reason today’s episode started an hour early? Baseball. John’s week was wall-to-wall: a Tuesday night little league game, the Padres game with Eric on Wednesday, practice Thursday night, the playoff draft reveal Friday, a little league game Saturday, and another Padres game Sunday. Eric pointed out John was wearing his own last name on a jersey to a Padres game, which opened up a whole sidebar on why anyone buys a $200 jersey with a player’s name on it when players change teams every two years anyway. Walking Pneumonia and the Power of the Right Antibiotic John’s week was also scrambled because his son had been diagnosed with regular pneumonia — but after not getting better, a second doctor visit revealed it was actually atypical (walking) pneumonia, which requires a completely different antibiotic. Once on the correct medication, his son bounced back almost immediately. The kid had been pushing himself trying to feel well enough for sixth grade camp, but there’s really no faking it with the wrong treatment. The Archie Situation — AI Standups Gone Sideways Eric has had a rough stretch after Anthropic shut down OpenClaw, the platform that powered their internal Discord bot Archie (a.k.a. Alfred). Archie had been running daily team standups, generating weekly summaries, letting team members tag it with updates throughout the day, and even setting reminders. Everyone got spoiled by it. Since then, attempts to migrate to Ollama — both locally and through the web service — have been plagued by slow response times and dropped messages. Eric is close to pulling the plug and going back to the old manual method, and he’s not happy about it. Claude SSH’d Into Eric’s Server and Fixed Everything For weeks, Eric had been fighting a broken Postiz Docker container — a self-hosted social media scheduling tool he uses to post across platforms. After updates broke it and multiple attempts at a fresh install still left it broken, he dropped the problem in Claude’s lap and explained the whole situation. Claude asked for permission to SSH into the remote server on Eric’s Tailscale network, and Eric said sure. Thirty minutes later, Claude had identified the culprit — a Temporal workflow engine losing its configuration on restart — wrote a fix script, configured the service to reconfigure properly on boot, and even set up a cron job to restart the container on reboot. Eric’s still trying to find that chat to review exactly what it did, but the service is running. GitHub is Getting Hammered by AI Agents GitHub has had a rough patch of outages, and the numbers tell the story: 20 million new repos per month, 1.4 billion commits, 90 million pull requests — with a dramatic spike right at the start of 2026. Part of the culprit? AI agents being unleashed on codebases to automatically open pull requests from backlog tickets. Eric has a client doing exactly this, and while it sounds impressive from the owner’s perspective (“look at all this work getting done!”), the developers on the ground report that a high percentage of those AI-generated PRs require significant human correction before they’re anywhere close to mergeable. The comparison to Reddit’s early explosion — and the one engineer who basically didn’t sleep for two years — felt pretty apt. The GitHub Security Vulnerability Nobody Talked About As if the outages weren’t enough, GitHub quietly disclosed a serious security vulnerability: a specially crafted git push — using malformed options in the push metadata — could allow arbitrary code execution on GitHub’s own servers. Eric had to dig to find the blog post because GitHub was not exactly shouting about it. To their credit, they state that their investigation found no evidence the vulnerability was ever exploited in the wild. But knowing that a specific sequence of bytes in a git push could have handed someone the keys to GitHub’s servers is genuinely unsettling. The Creator of Ghosty Is Leaving GitHub Mitchell Hashimoto — creator of the Ghostty terminal and formerly of HashiCorp — announced he’s leaving GitHub, where he’s been a user since 2008 (user #1299). This comes shortly after the Zig programming language made the same move, also citing reliability concerns. Eric was mildly skeptical of the “announcing I’m leaving” genre of posts, pointing out that GitHub doesn’t especially need your permission to stop using it. Notably, Hashimoto’s post doesn’t say what he plans to use instead. John joined GitHub in 2009, which led to a fun live expedition through his commit history — turns out he got serious about coding right around July 2013, roughly when DiegoDev landed its first client. Update Composer. Like, Right Now. PHP developers tend to set Composer up and forget about it — but there’s been a serious security vulnerability patched in a recent release that you absolutely want. The fix is simple: just run composer self-update. It updates in place and keeps a rollback copy in case anything breaks. While you’re at it, if you have global Composer packages installed, run composer global update to catch those too. Eric noted that Composer should really warn you when you’re significantly behind versions, the way Claude Code does. Until it does, just make a habit of it. Linux Kernel Exploit — Patch Your Servers A CVE was shared in the phparch Discord that affects Ubuntu, Amazon Linux, and Red Hat: a Linux kernel exploit that lets an attacker gain root access with a remarkably small payload — around 732 bytes targeting setuid. It’s a good reminder that the old sysadmin badge of honor (“my server has 5-year uptime, never rebooted”) is the wrong mentality now.

#994 | Ed and Jamie discuss how English football's huge revenues still produce widespread losses, driven by an arms race in wages and transfer fees. They compare crises elsewhere (French TV rights falling about 80% amid PSG's dominance and conflicts of interest) and note the growth of multi-club ownership and private equity, including Sixth Street's move into Sunderland Women and the broader rise of MCOs. Reviewing 2024/25 accounts, they highlight Chelsea's staggering losses (about £262m pre-tax and cited as closer to £350m for UEFA), reliance on self-deals, and the difficulty of reaching UEFA break-even targets. Arsenal are financially solid but with limited headroom; Liverpool's big summer spend raises future squad-cost risks; City is discussed cautiously pending the 115 charges. They cover Premier League–EFL revenue-sharing tensions and the limits of new squad-cost rules and an independent regulator and touch on Newcastle's stadium sale, Spurs' rising costs, Villa's UEFA constraints, and FIFA World Cup ticket pricing controversies in the US. 00:00 Intro 00:30 Liverpool/PSG 02:50 French Football Crisis 05:51 MCOs, Private Equity and Women's Football 08:11 Premier League Club Finances Overview 15:08 Arsenal and Liverpool 21:31 PSR & Squad Cost Rules 25:38 EFL Revenue Sharing & Sustainability 35:51 Man City and 115 Charges 39:31 Tottenham and Aston Villa 46:42 World Cup 2026: Tickets, Costs & FIFA If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

In this episode, Tom Fox welcomes former Wall Street trader Joseph De Gregorio, who was federally convicted and now applies a “compliance rebuild” methodology to demonstrate genuine remediation under legal scrutiny. This is Part 1 of a two-part podcast series. Using the Matthew Bowyer illegal sports betting case, Joseph explains the federal pre-sentence interview and pre-sentence report (PSR) process, emphasizing that the probation officer's credibility assessment and PSR narrative heavily influence sentencing and downstream treatment across the federal system. He describes submitting a 3,500-word personal narrative before the PSR interview, which was attached in full and cited by the judge as mitigation, resulting in a one-year-and-a-day sentence rather than the government's four-year request. Joseph maps DOJ's seven corporate compliance program dimensions to individuals via a personal compliance manual, independent accountability structure, credentialed education, verifiable monitoring, documented transparency, voluntary discipline actions, and a post-sentencing continuous improvement plan centered on victims-first accountability.

They unpack his non-committal comments on Eddie Howe's future, what “buy well, sell well” really means for Isak, Tonali, Bruno and Livramento, and how the St James' Park lease move actually impacts PSR and summer spending.

For this episode the Exocast team are joined by Dr Matthew Kenworthy from the University of Leiden, The Netherlands. Matt's work focuses on strange transit events and the search for new ways to better process data. Matt started his career in the instrumentation lab and we dive into that transition to more remote hands-off research. We talk about his work with the assassin, sorry ASASSN, network and the search for weird dips, and then what the future of instrumentation holds for our search for planets in the universe. In addition, as always we ask our guest to adopt an exoplanet into our Exocast family with Matt choosing PSR 1829-10 – listen in to find out why and if it exists at all!? Matt is a British astronomer who did his PhD at the University of Cambridge after an undergrad at Oxford, he then held postdocs at Steward Observatory at the University of Arizona, and then at the University of Cincinnati then back at Steward as an instrument scientist, however he has been working and living in the Netherlands for the over a decade as a professor at the Leiden Observatory.

A matinee showing on location at Prairie Sky Recovery Centre in Leipzig, Saskatchewan. This condensed episode was a powerful, extended live recording from inside the hallowed halls of PSR, where the atmosphere of hope and transformation was undeniable. Staff members shared their passion and commitment to helping others rebuild their lives, while several alumni courageously opened up about their journeys through addiction and into recovery. Their stories highlighted not only the struggles they've overcome but also the strength and support they found within the facility. Throughout the episode, it was clear that this place is more than just a treatment center—it's a community that fosters positivity, growth, addiction, recovery and second chances.
Is the magic finally wearing off for Eddie Howe at St James' Park? Following a devastating week that saw Newcastle United crashed out of the Champions League by Barcelona and beaten twice in one season by local rivals Sunderland, we ask the tough questions about the Magpies' sudden slump. With 22 points dropped from winning positions and a squad that looks "stale," is it time for a change in the dugout, or is PSR to blame for a "shambolic" summer of recruitment?In this episode, Angelina Kelly is joined by social host Olly Clink and Newcastle content creator Jack Cunningham to dissect the fallout from the Tyne-Wear derby. They debate whether Howe's loyalty to the "old guard" is hindering progress and discuss sensational claims that Cesc Fabregas could be the man to bring modern, technical football to Tyneside. Plus, the team reacts to the CEO David Hopkinson's 2030 Premier League title target—is it ambitious planning or just nonsense?YouTube: @talkSPORT X: @talkSPORT & @talkSPORT2 Instagram: @talkSPORTProduced by: Daniel Kane Edited by: Daniel Kane Hosted on Acast.

#989 | Ed and Jamie discuss a Premier League settlement with Chelsea over £47 million worth of undisclosed, off-book payments to players, agents and third parties from 20011–2018, involving names including Samuel Eto'o, Eden Hazard and David Luiz. The £10m fine and suspended transfer/youth-player bans show inconsistent rule enforcement versus PSR points deductions for clubs like Everton and could weaken the Premier League's position in Manchester City's case, while signalling cooperation and ownership change can reduce sporting sanctions. It's incredibly lenient. There's an examination of how a Gulf-wide conflict has driven crude oil from about $65 to ~$105, pressuring INEOS' thin-margin, highly leveraged petrochemicals business, potentially delaying or complicating refinancing at INEOS and United amid reduced prospects of Fed interest rate cuts. The conversation finishes on the potential impact around United's new stadium in a high-rate, high-cost environment. 00:00 Introduction 03:09 Chelsea's Off-Book Payments 07:09 Premier League's Lenient Penalty 17:45 Implications for Man City's Case 20:23 The Abramovich Fund 22:15 War in the Gulf and Oil Price Shock 28:33 Impact on United's Refinancing and Ownership 32:43 New Stadium Challenges If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

Arsenal's financial results are in — and the numbers tell a story.In Episode 174, we break down the club's 2025 revenue surge, Champions League impact, sponsorship growth and wage structure, asking what it really means for Arsenal's trajectory. Is this sustainable growth? How does the new financial model affect future transfer windows? And with PSR gone and a new system incoming, what does the summer actually look like?We also debate the controversial 3.9% ticket price rise and the introduction of the A+ category for Champions League knockout games. With merchandise flying off the shelves and revenues climbing, is this smart business — or bad faith? Where should the balance sit between global growth and protecting match-going fans?From there, attention turns to Europe. The Champions League draw looms, with Arsenal facing either Atalanta or Bayer Leverkusen. We react to a chaotic knockout night, assess the possible paths ahead, and discuss what really matters at this stage of the competition — league phase fatigue or knockout mentality?Part two shifts to football matters on the pitch.We analyse squad dynamics ahead of Chelsea:– The left wing debate and whether Saka moves wide again– Ødegaard's role and match sharpness– Hincapié vs Calafiori at left-back– Defensive structure and late-game control– What Chelsea might change after recent stumblesIs this a statement opportunity?

Leicester City and the Premier League are both appealing the verdict over the club's Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) breach as the battle between the two takes another twist. City were deducted six points after an independent commission found them to be in breach of PSR for the 23-24 season. However, that decision has not been accepted by either side. While City are appealing to reduce the punishment, the Premier League have released a statement saying they too will appeal as they believe the sanction is not strong enough.

With Aston Villa dealing with a mounting midfield injury list and a January window shaped more by constraint than ambition, this main show takes stock of where things actually are. Not where fans would like them to be. Not where narratives suggest they should be.The transfer window assessment is framed through damage limitation, PSR pressure, squad balance, and the reality that replacing key midfielders mid-season is close to impossible.That context feeds directly into the on-pitch discussion, starting with a battling draw away at Bournemouth. Down bodies, short of control, and under pressure for long spells, Villa scrapped for a point that looked more valuable the longer the game went on. It wasn't fluent. It wasn't comfortable. But it was resilient.The Bournemouth game is treated as a stress test rather than a failure. A measure of how this Villa side copes when structure is disrupted and energy has to replace cohesion. There's frustration, but also recognition that these are the moments that define whether a team stays competitive through adversity.This isn't a side pushing on right now. It's a side needing to hold the line.UTVGet a Great NordVPN DealGet a cracking deal on NordVPN with four months FREE & a 30 days money-back guarantee here: nordvpn.com/momsGET AD-FREE SHOWS and JOIN MATCH CLUBGet ad-free shows and extra shows, and join My Old Man Said's 24/7 Villa community, Match Club.For more details and to become a member, click here: Become a MOMS MemberJoin the show's listener facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid Chris Budd - @BUDD_musicPhillip Shaw - @prsgameMy Old Man Said - https://www.myoldmansaid.comThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

We get into Romero's Instagram post and whether “disgrace” was a translation issue or another not-so-subtle dig at the people running Spurs. From a historically dead January window to PSR reality, loan market weirdness, and why the club feels completely directionless, we ask the big one: did we actually try and fail, or just choose not to act? Plus: how much slack does Frank get when the squad is held together with tape, and does the lack of signings quietly buy him time? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Out went Arnaud Kalimuendo, Douglas Luiz and Oleksandr Zinchenko with Stefan Ortega, Luca Netz and Lorenzo Lucca arriving.

Newcastle's season is at a crossroads, and Ed and Olly dive deep into it all. They break down the Aston Villa defeat with full positives-and-negatives (Miley's emergence, Botman's resurgence, and a blunt forward line), ask hard questions about Eddie Howe's tactics and striker isolation, and debate whether this campaign can still be classed as a “success.”They unpack January transfer limbo, PSR confusion after the Isak sale, and the growing injury list with Bruno and Joelinton doubts. Then it's all eyes on Paris: detailed PSG preview, Champions League permutations (what a win, draw, or defeat actually means), and how Newcastle can approach their biggest away test under Howe with a playoff place already secured.Plus: Patreon questions on FFP, missing out on Europe, and whether Howe's training-ground plans are translating on matchdays, and a fun quiz on the players who've worn both Newcastle and PSG colours.--------------JOIN OUR PATREON for so much moreFollow us on Twitter/X @nufcblogcastPlease consider giving us a good review if you enjoy what you hear!See all our episodes here - https://shows.acast.com/nufcblogcast Hosted on Acast.
