The Ramble: We’re off to JLingz FC

Stak
About this episode

In an absolutely seismic pre-season friendly, Man United beat up Arsenal on the pitch - while Arsenal fans in the stands beat up each other. Ahh, soccer.


Marcus, Jim and Pete thoroughly cover that, try to smuggle some Lionel Messi shirts out of Miami, book trials at JLingz FC and buy a hearse.
