A dirty rip of one of Will Ferrell's lesser-known films has found its way into Pete's grubby hands, meaning Luke and Jim have no choice but to dissect this very average (but also quite fun) football flick. It's Ferrell deep into his Anchorman era, surely it's a tap-in, right? Right?!We follow an anxious father who takes over his son's football team to prove himself to his competitive dad. Expect coffee to be employed as a narrative technique, some quite blatant Italian stereotypes, phantom commentators, and one genuinely standout performance (which Luke is overly complimentary of).Get your Football Ramble x Admiral kit here.Find us on Bluesky, X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and email us here: show@footballramble.com.Sign up to the Football Ramble Patreon for ad-free shows for just $5 per month: https://www.patreon.com/footballramble.***Please take the time to rate us on your podcast app. It means a great deal to the show and will make it easier for other potential listeners to find us.

In keeping with the ongoing transfer window shenanigans, we're unveiling another summer signing of our own: Jamie Carragher's on the pod! Admittedly it's a one-day loan from some other show you've probably never heard of, but lovely to have Jamie all the same.He joins Luke and Jim to look ahead to an intriguing Premier League season featuring a boatload of new managers, a few OAPs at Chelsea and some tentative worries about Andoni Iraola's Liverpool.We also get to the bottom of those rumours about Jamie having an Everton tattoo and the time Arsène Wenger tried to coax him into publicly supporting FIFA!Get your Football Ramble x Admiral kit here.Find us on Bluesky, X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and email us here: show@footballramble.com.Sign up to the Football Ramble Patreon for ad-free shows for just $5 per month: https://www.patreon.com/footballramble.***Please take the time to rate us on your podcast app. It means a great deal to the show and will make it easier for other potential listeners to find us.

It appears that Gianni Infantino's own hubris has been the weakness in FIFA's Death Star. After a quite ridiculous week of events, FIFA's plan to sell off stakes in the World Cup has self-destructed in their own faces and big Gianni's now fighting for his future.Pete, Luke & Jim are here to throw more fuel on that fire. Plus, Chelsea are given a mere flick on the wrist for their cheating, an update on Pete quitting energy drinks, and a cashier gets a run out against Bayern Munich.Get your Football Ramble x Admiral kit here.Find us on Bluesky, X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and email us here: show@footballramble.com.Sign up to the Football Ramble Patreon for ad-free shows for just $5 per month: https://www.patreon.com/footballramble.***Please take the time to rate us on your podcast app. It means a great deal to the show and will make it easier for other potential listeners to find us.

Please listeners, allow Pete Donaldson this time to grieve the loss of the Wham! hoodie-wearing, handshake-gazumping, limelight-stealing LEGEND that is Jason Tindall.He's joined by Jim and Vish to react to Jason and Eddie Howe's departure from Newcastle. But before that, Gianni Infantino comes up with a plan to decimate the soul of football... again. Plus, Pete proposes privatising the United Nations, Barry Scott is found alive, and the Scouse Bagpuss signs for Tranmere.Get your Football Ramble x Admiral kit here.Find us on Bluesky, X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and email us here: show@footballramble.com.Sign up to the Football Ramble Patreon for ad-free shows for just $5 per month: https://www.patreon.com/footballramble.***Please take the time to rate us on your podcast app. It means a great deal to the show and will make it easier for other potential listeners to find us.

That's right, folks: Pete's broken into the abandoned Blockbuster on the seafront and grabbed another harrowing selection of football films for the other lads to hatewatch and you to enjoy! First up, the autobiographical tale of German PoW turned Manchester City goalkeeper, Bert Trautmann.Straight out the gate, Pete's heart sunk at the prospect of authentic, intimate on-screen love – though it is spiced up by plenty of forward rolls and extensive wartime anti-German sentiment. It Was A Different Time™, of course.It's basically a two-hour version of Heartbeat with some diving goalkeepers and offensive accents. But, worryingly, it's actually… decent?!
