The Football Ramble's Guide To... Jamie ...

Stak
About this episode

Imagine your loudmouth mate left your hometown, became one of the Premier League’s most fearsome strikers and secured a Premier League title, an FA Cup triumph and a Ballon d’Or nomination. Well, no need - Jamie Vardy did just that.


Marcus, Andy, Luke and Jim get the party started with a look back over a phenomenal journey of grit, determination and shithousery. From gradually making a name for himself in non-league football to a foiled move to a club in Ibiza - Pacha, probably - his earlier years were a relentless, brutal lesson in goalscoring. And, after a slow start to the Premier League after a record-breaking move to Leicester, him and his motley crew of pirates went on to become modern day icons of English football.
