About this episode

What were we all worried about?! The European Super League is written off just 48 hours after it began, with the English clubs offering all the remorse of a captured Bond villain. Daft little tournament, silly owners, etc… 


Marcus, Vish and Pete are here to celebrate the fans’ victory, but stress the need for further action in a bid to improve football for everyone – not just the elite. We also bid farewell to Ed Woodward, praise the actions of Jordan Henderson and Pep Guardiola and try to work out where the game goes from here. Oh, and rumours are already linking José Mourinho to the Celtic job, so there’s that.
