Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola kick off with the latest Americans Abroad headlines. Ricardo Pepi is back from injury and back to doing Ricardo Pepi things -smashing in golazos for PSV - while Tyler Adams also made a welcome return for Bournemouth (07:47).

Join Matthew Brennan, Ben Symes and David Wilson as they delve into the biggest stories this week in the world of Irish football. On this week's episode, the trio chat about Nathan Collins' form with Brentford, and who could be in with a shout of getting into the defensive positions in March's squad for Czechia. Is Andrew Omobamidele's new found form at Strasbourg going to catapult him into the picture, or what about James Abankwah's strong displays for Watford in the English Championship? With the game coming ever closer, who is going to partner Troy Parrott up top, will it be Chiedozie Ogbene? And what is the latest on Evan Ferguson's injury woe at Roma? There is a healthy discussion around Jack Moylan and whether he could be in a squad, and also is there room for a Sinclair Armstrong? Matthew regales the excellence of fan favourite David 'Didzy' McGoldrick and what could have been. After Minister for Sport Patrick O'Donovan's comments after the Louth derby, the lads get into why Irish football fan culture is so important and why it is changing. And there is an update as to why the violence in Mexico is something worth keeping an eye on ahead of this summer's World Cup.

Welcome back to It Was What It Was, the football history podcast. In this second part of our two-part special on football hooliganism, co-hosts Jonathan Wilson and Rob Draper trace the roots of football violence from the 1890s through to its transformation into organised ‘firms’ in the 1960s, 70s and 80s. They discuss the origins of the word ‘hooligan’, early crowd disorder and FA crackdowns, and how post-war prosperity, youth subcultures, away travel and ‘taking ends’ helped create a new kind of fan conflict. The episode also covers the European and England-team flashpoints of the 1970s and 80s, the political and policing response to the Popplewell Report, with later links to post-Hillsborough reforms and why large-scale hooliganism declined.

Welcome back to The Fan Debate, brought to you by Sky Bet. Football finance expert Kieran Maguire returns for another Price of Football special, joining Jamie Carragher, Wayne Rooney and some of the biggest fan channels in the country to break down one of the most controversial areas of the modern game. We begin with an update on Manchester City’s 115 charges, as Kieran explains where things stand and what could happen next, while City fan Luke shares his frustration at how long the case has dragged on. The focus then shifts to supporters, with rising ticket prices and concerns around the matchday experience. Are clubs turning their backs on fans? Kieran also highlights Aston Villa as the next club potentially at financial risk, and we discuss what that could mean. The debate extends to soaring World Cup ticket prices and the introduction of SCR rules, which could reshape how Premier League clubs operate. Has money taken over football, and where does the game go from here?

A nice light, noncontroversial one to kick off today’s Mailbag: are multi-club ownership models a necessary evil in modern football, or a blight on the game’s very essence? Marcus, Luke and Vish tackle that one first, before diving into some of the lighter questions you’ve chucked us over the last week. What are some nice bits about modern football? Where would we choose to finish our own career? And who’s got the best ‘bang average career, exceptional individual moment’ in football history?

We look at it flying off the shelves and what that might mean for the club's finances.

Welcome to It Was What It Was, the football history podcast. In this first part of a two-part special on football hooliganism, co-hosts Jonathan Wilson and Rob Draper are joined by special guest Cass Pennant - former West Ham United Inter City Firm member who later became an author and film producer. They discuss director Ian Stuttard (known as “Butch”) and his 1985 groundbreaking documentary 'Hooligan', which challenged the stereotype of hooligans. Cass explains how Stuttard earned access by spending months with the ICF without a camera, building trust, and later filming from inside the action. The episode also covers the Thatcher-era context, the film’s controversial release and its wider impact on how 'firms' were understood. We finish the episode with Cass reflecting on Stuttard’s wider documentary career, their later partnership in a production company, and Stuttard’s lasting legacy. Join us next week for the history of football hooliganism. You can listen to this episode ad-free over on our Patreon - Follow the link here - or go to Patreon.com and search for It Was What It Was.

Thomas Frank has officially been sacked by Tottenham — but is the problem bigger than just the manager? The Cooligans break down what’s really going wrong at Spurs, debate who should replace Frank, and question whether any coach can fix the deeper issues at the club. Then Austin FC striker Brandon Vazquez joins the show to discuss his ACL recovery, the moment he realized his World Cup dream might be in jeopardy, his experience playing in Liga MX, and the story behind his iconic Superman celebration. Plus, the boys wrap things up by giving their best and worst picks from the 2026 MLS kit reveal.

Thomas Frank is out at Tottenham, and Mauricio Pochettino has quickly emerged as one of the bookmakers’ favorites to replace him. Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola break down the timing of the Spurs vacancy and whether it could have any impact on the USMNT head coach as the World Cup approaches. Tim Weah’s standout season is under the microscope following Roberto De Zerbi’s exit from Marseille. The crew also digs into the secret behind Pellegrino Matarazzo’s nine-game unbeaten run at Real Sociedad, the returns of Tyler Adams and Christian Pulisic from injury, and why Antonee “Jedi” Robinson has suddenly found himself on the bench at Fulham. Plus, San Diego advances in the Concacaf Champions Cup and faces a stern next-round test - and with the 2026 MLS season just 10 days away, the guys debate the best and worst jersey releases.
