The Preview Show: Football’s back already, Matt Doherty looks set to join Spurs, and Gareth Barry hangs up the boots

Six days after the last one ended, the next football season’s grand opening is somehow already upon us! Yes, we look ahead now to the Community Shield on today’s episode of The Preview Show, sponsored by Betway.

Kate, Luke and Vish then celebrate Gareth Barry’s hugely impressive career after his retirement announcement, before wondering what exactly Matt Doherty would bring to Tottenham’s defence. And wait with baited breath as Kate faces her first challenger since being crowned the current Luke's Game champion!

On next week's edition of The Topics, we want to know: with Tom Hardy voicing the new Spurs documentary, which famous person would you have voicing a series on your club and why? Email show@footballrambledaily.com or tweet us using #RambleTopics
