Smouldering Champions League embers
The Champos is back with a clang, as Jesse Lingard gifted those Young Boys a victory minutes from time. It was actually reminiscent of a game from last season Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said he never wanted to happen again. Damn it all. Marcus, Jim and Andy also look over a solid victory for Chelsea and an absolute cakewalk for Bayern Munich over in Barcelona. Demba Ba also announces his retirement and we finally come up with a name for our new Agony Aunt section - ropey jingle included.Search ‘Football Ramble’ on social media to find us, and email us here: show@footballramble.com.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

A friend of mine watched a stream

Ronaldo was there, too.Jules, Luke and Pete discuss a jam-packed weekend of football nonsense, as Man United get off to a flyer with Ronaldo, while Patrick Vieira does one over Spurs – again – and Mo Salah hits 100. There’s also a special José Mourinho milestone, another footballer’s obsession with custard, and a Dutch footballer suffers a truly bizarre injury after… eating a carrot.Search ‘Football Ramble’ on social media to find us, and email us here: show@footballramble.com.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Quick pint of Tennent's, Timo?
Marcus, Andy and Vish assess the state of play after England's set of qualifiers ended with a 1-1 draw in Poland. Another Harry Kane goal, a lack of subs and surrendering a lead - same old story, perhaps?Elsewhere, Wales and Northern Ireland just about kept themselves in the hunt with a couple of clean sheets and Italy finally won a game. We also hear more of Vish's bizarre takeaway habits and FIFA's version of The Avengers starts to take shape - it seems John Terry is, indeed, inevitable.Search ‘Football Ramble’ on social media to find us, and email us here: show@footballramble.com.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Daft little penalty, silly unbeaten record
Jules, Jim and Pete round up a weekend of international football, with Gareth's gang back picking up another serene Wembley win thanks to Executive Vibes Director, Jesse Lingard.More of the same also occurred across Europe, with Italy *still* unbeaten and Gareth Bale *still* doing the business for Wales. The same can't be said of South America, mind, as four of Argentina's squad were detained mid-game by Brazilian officials! Turns out a fair few people do actually watch them in the Premier League...Search ‘Football Ramble’ on social media to find us, and email us here: show@footballramble.com.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.
