Just ten more sleeps until the Premier League returns! But which top flight club has the most on the line this season?Pete, Luke & Jim tuck into that, and also a speciality dish cooked up by a Premier League manager - but who would do it best?

Only one place for Pete, Jim and Luke to start. Who had the better weekend: Luke and Jim screaming their heads off at Oasis, or Pete getting heartburn after excessive prosecco at a bottomless brunch? Answers on a postcard.There is time for some football post-Oasis though, as Son Heung-min calls time on an esteemed Spurs career and Aaron Ramsdale helps to rearrange the deck chairs on the Tynetanic. Plus, Callum Wilson stops taking the piss out of West Ham long enough to sign for them and proper football returns! Russell Martin’s already having a proper moan about it.Please fill out Stak's listener survey!

It's official: Alexander Isak has been labelled "a rat". But surely there needs to be a new animal for the Newcastle United fanbase? Pete, Luke and Jim Bernie Campbell are on the case...The lads discuss Spurs winning the first North London derby outside the UK (with thanks to Frontier Pets) and Man United's new hire, who fittingly seems to be an FBI agent from a screwball comedy. Meanwhile, Wayne Rooney begins hatching a plan to bring down High Performance's Tom Brady. Mr. Brady, you ever heard of Walkabout?**15% off Football Ramble Patreon annual subscriptions until the end of August!**Sign up for ad-free shows, bonus content every Wednesday and access to our Discord for $51 a year or $5 a month: https://www.patreon.com/footballramble.Find us on Bluesky, X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and email us here: show@footballramble.com.***Please take the time to rate us on your podcast app. It means a great deal to the show and will make it easier for other potential listeners to find us.

Man United have copied Newcastle’s homework and narrowed their striker options down to Ollie Watkins and Benjamin Šeško. That means Pete, Luke and Jim have to confront the terrifying prospect that they might actually have a decent season, as unlikely as that still sounds…We also get an update on the terrible situations at Sheffield Wednesday and Morecambe, while David Moyes becomes the unlikely head of the Everton tourist board and Joško Gvardiol’s pre-season training involves wielding a semi-automatic in the Croatian woods. Plus, Erik ten Hag remains adamant that Granit Xhaka won’t leave Bayer Leverkusen - cue the Benny Hill theme #herewego.Sign up to the Football Ramble Patreon for ad-free shows, extended Wednesday episodes, access to our Discord and early access to tickets and merch for just $5 per month: https://www.patreon.com/footballramble.***Please take the time to rate us on your podcast app. It means a great deal to the show and will make it easier for other potential listeners to find us.

Pete, Luke and Jim are back to officially plinth Sarina Wiegman on today's Mailbag! Plus, do we think Thomas Frank will tame the Spurs madhouse? Should there be a Premier League squad cap to stop Chelsea's puppy farming? And what would Pete do to Les Ferdinand in the confines of his shed?Your suggestions on that last one are very welcome...

It’s a historic eeeeeaasaaay for Pete, Luke and Jim today after England retain their Euros crown with a clutch win over Spain. We revel in some era-defining performances from Sarina Wiegman, Chloe Kelly, Lucy Bronze and the rest of those effing heroes.Elsewhere, Arsenal finally complete the signing of Viktor Gyökeres, Pep turns down the India job (sort of) and Evangelos Marinakis convinces Morgan Gibbs-White to stay at Forest - presumably at gun point. Plus, rejoice: pre season tours are here!

Luke, Jim and David are here for a Friday frot! And while there might be no football, there are plenty of worried Geordies because Alexander Isak is being a hot mess – but fear not everyone, Alan Shearer is on the case...Elsewhere, in the loveliest of lovely old jobs, Jack Grealish has been linked with Napoli after someone drove him down the Amalfi Coast – it might be tenuous but we don't care. Plus, a listener tells us about Chelsea's team of magicians and there's the small matter of the Lionesses vs Spain on Sunday!For Upfront's full preview of that game on Saturday, click here to listen and subscribe!Find us on Bluesky, X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and email us here: show@footballramble.com.Sign up to the Football Ramble Patreon for ad-free shows, extended Wednesday episodes, access to our Discord and early access to tickets and merch for just $5 per month: https://www.patreon.com/footballramble.***Please take the time to rate us on your podcast app. It means a great deal to the show and will make it easier for other potential listeners to find us.
