About this episode

Welcome back to another episode fished out of The Football Ramble archives!


This time around: the torrid tales of Gigi Becali reach a dramatic end, Sven putting his name forward for every single management job and a Breakfast XI. Plus, there’s entries into the Dean Windass Hall of Fame for Peter Shilton, Mark Hateley, and Mark Hateley’s greedy haircut.


Oh, and a Geordie punched a horse…
