FIFA World Cup 2026

This time around on Ramble Meets, Luke spends an hour with Paul Watson, author, traveller and football coach whose experiences have seen him set up a football league on the tiny Pacific island of Pohnpei, run a professional club in Mongolia, and also take responsibility for organising the CONIFA World Football Cup, a tournament for states, minorities, stateless peoples and regions unrecognised by FIFA. In this revealing interview, Paul recounts tales of a life less ordinary travelling around the world on his footballing mission, the characters he's met along the way, and what the future holds for his many projects. To purchase Paul's book about his time in Micronesia (and we heartily recommend you do!), search for Up Pohnpei! in all good bookshops. ***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Good day! You join us for some best bits of the 2010/11 season, where we arrive at a cornerstone of Ramble lore: Richard Keys & Andy Gray. We join them in Midlife Crisis Corner on MNF to see if they can work their way around the interactive screen and discern if penalties are now easier. Richard. Elsewhere there’s a Fulhamish tale from Craven Cottage about mum’s relaxation day, smooth moves from Robbie ‘The Pale Murderer’ Keane and an update from Diego Corner. The first of many, we assume.

Could Mike Ashley finally be about to sell Newcastle United? Rumours suggest it may be the case, but one of our number isn’t so sure. Where other rumours are concerned, Man United get all Moby as their class of ’99 turn it on at Old Trafford, and there are whisperings of a return to football for Big Weng. Poor old Sunderland suffer yet more heartache after another Wembley loss, while Charlton, Mike Dean’s Tranmere and Celtic are in dreamland. There’s also a look ahead to the Europa League final and a special mention for one Chris Wondolowski.

There’s barely any football happening but we don’t even care, there’s still room to talk about possible double agent Petr Cech, Rushin’ Ray Parlour and the hugely exciting prospect of Mike Dean stealing the show from the Wembley stands as his beloved Tranmere take on Newport County.

In an unprecedented crossing of the football podcast streams, Football Weekly's Max Rushden talks to Luke about how the other half do it, how he came to be the host of one of the biggest football shows in the UK, and what it was really like to present Soccer AM with people constantly screaming 'BRING BACK LOVEJOY' at him out of car windows every day.

As the dust and ticker tape settles on the domestic season it’s Man City that have won it all. A comprehensive gubbing of Watford leaves us equal parts impressed and terrified for the future, though it turns out that Newcastle United have also won some silverware this season, if you’re a bit sloppy with the details, which clearly we are. Peering around the rest of the game we discover that the guy with the bell is no longer the worst Portsmouth fan, that Tony Pulis’ usefulness has come to an end at Middlesbrough and that Cardiff Metropolitan University FC are a name to look out for in Europe next season.

She is instantly recognisable for her work on Super Sunday, The Debate and the PDC World Darts Championship. Here, in this exclusive interview, she tells Luke about her path into broadcasting from making her own 'radio shows' on her stereo at home as a kid to co-hosting national shows on talkSPORT, how she deals with criticism from both colleagues and internet trolls, and what it's like to work in an industry that is still very much a man's world. ***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

There was to be no twist at the weekend and Man City retain the title, while Liverpool finish second with a points haul that would have seen them as champions in any season but this or last. It’s been scintillating stuff and it’s been a pleasure bringing you our thoughts on it throughout the season. And now for some goodbyes. Goodbye to Neil Warnock, gone from the Premier League, never to return, goodbye to Chris Hughton, who did just enough to keep Brighton up, and goodbye to Yaya Toure… we think. It’s far from goodbye from us though, with the FA Cup, play-offs, Champions League and all the usual nonsense to come.

Our ruddy, giddy auntie Nora Bennett! What a week in the Champions League, with turnarounds, late goals, quick thinking ball boys, crying managers and more drama than we realistically have time to explore. Over in the Premier League, can Brighton stand firm in The Battle of the Amex as Man City come looking for the title? Can Liverpool dispatch Wolves just in case they can? Can Watford and West Ham overshadow it all in the battle for 10th. No, they can’t, but that’s fine. This show is sponsored by bet365.

A strange weekend of football as Liverpool keep it up but Spurs, Arsenal and Man United all implode to various degrees, in what will surely become known as The Season Where Nobody Seemed That Bothered About Finishing Third or Fourth. The Premier League also says goodbye to Neil Warnock and his fancy new stance, various play-offs take shape and we speculate on the behind-closed-doors character of Delia Smith.

Incredible scenes on the end of Lionel Messi’s foot at the Camp Nou have left us as giddy as a certain anchor’s aunt. We look back at the setbacks that Liverpool and Spurs faced in Europe, rate Ajax’s chances of winning the damn thing and also wonder if Brendan Rodgers might be the crucial element in deciding where the Premier League title parks itself come the end of the season. Along the way we speculate on the behind the scenes history of the Scholes family, wonder if time is running out for Andros Townsend to prove Marcus right and probably use the word “effluvia” too much.

In this latest episode of Ramble Meets..., Luke talks to Chief Football Commentator at ITV and talkSPORT Sam Matterface. Sam delivers spectacular insight into what it's like to be a commentator at the top level, from what preparation he does before a big game to how hospital radio, Portsmouth's promotion season, and being the youngest restaurant manager in McDonald's history helped him on his way. In addition to that, he tells us what he's looking for in a co-commentator, what the inside of his commentary box looks like, and why he will never again describe a shot on goal as 'fifty two parts water, one part orange squash'.

We drag ourselves out of the sick bay despite our various ailments - stomach upsets, bronchitis, Townsenditis - to look over a fascinating weekend of football in which Leeds and Marcelo Bielsa took centre stage. What. A. Ruck. It’s exactly what we will not pretend we don’t want to see. We also look at David De Gea and his latest inopportune out of body experience, imagine what a deadly combination Ashley Barnes and Jamie Vardy would have been at school and learn of Andre Santos’ new life as a restauranteur.

Right, it's Easter Monday, but football waits for no-one and so we're back in the studio ruminating on what's been happening on this, the holiest of weekends. Obviously Man City and Liverpool both won, the latter partly thanks to Sean Morrison's back, but don't forget, Everton also dished out a hiding. Mr Solskjaer is obviously absolutely fuming about it.

It’s Good Fryday and for our final egg we have the Egg Royale, the Golden Goose Egg, a smooth, notorious player who was well and truly laid, pro-teen with squad selection and at one time the toast of the nation.

WOW! Spurs and Man City serve up one of the maddest, most entertaining games in recent memory and as if that wasn’t enough we get to see them do it all again on Sunday. Liverpool had a calmer time of it but have to be wary of Neil Warnock’s slightly resurgent Cardiff, while Man United look like the party might be over. Again. Elsewhere Andros Townsend infiltrates our dreams, there’s confusion about Ed the Duck and tabard etiquette, while yet more doctors get in touch.

We keep the series rolling with a most decorated egg. Vialli starred for teams like Juvhentus and Shellsea, becoming player manager at the batter when Ruud Gullit got the egg-sac.

The Scotch egg himself! Free kicks were his eggy bread and butter, his passing ostretched defences and his volleys left goalkeepers pickled. In one of football’s most unexp-egg-ted swan songs he became a Liverpool eggular at the age of 35. And yes swans lay eggs.

Liverpool keep doing the business and though Shay Given may have barely looked up from his dinner when Mo Salah scored one of the goals of the season, we couldn’t believe our luck. We also found time to despair at Everton’s performance against Fulham, find that a discussion on aspect ratio and frame rates leads to an explanation of how Newcastle are programmed, and enjoy some innovative product placement from West Ham’s owners.

The weekend ahead sees many a potential thigh rubber, but is it Liverpool vs Chelsea? Burnley vs Cardiff? Sean Dyche vs Neil Warnock? It’ll probably be all of them. As well as looking forward, we look back over recent Champions League ding dongs, including harking back to Liverpool and Chelsea’s drab beef of yesteryear, via yet more football food fights and a worrying spread of potential misinformation from a rogue Jim.

When most people think of the Leeds United side of this era they think of the reckless whisk assessment that led to their ultimately devastating financial irr-egg-ularities, but it was an enjoyable ride up to then. Their two-egged Champions League semi-final against Valencia, in which most of the squad shaved their heads, was the peak of this ride, and we’re here to reminisce about the hatching of their audacious European plan.

Bulgaria’s Yordan Letchkov poached one of the most memorable goals in the sizzling heat of USA ’94 to put himself into World (Egg) Cup yolk-lore. But there was more to the man than that iconic moment, with a surprisingly well documented leggacy at Hamburg, a clash with John Toshack and a political career with its fair share of eggnomony.

International football is back! There could be very exciting times ahead for the home nations aside from poor Northern Ireland, who have a draw Michael O’Neill called “very cruel”. England have an exciting crop of players coming through, Scotland look as strong as they have in years and Wales could do well if Ryan Giggs has got time to be around and coach them.

The FA Cup quarter finals are over and they were full of late goals, VAR controversy and sort-of-but-not-quite cupsets, the Championship had an outfield player in goal, and in the Premier League Javier Hernandez’s impressive under-the-radar goal return justified the West Ham spend that everyone’s jealous of.
