    The World Cup group stage is heating up — and we've got a LOT to cover. Canada smash six past Qatar, the Netherlands destroy Sam's dark horse Sweden 5-1, Yamal scores on his return as Spain hammer Saudi Arabia 4-0, and Cape Verde's Vozinha continues his fairytale. Plus today's fixtures: Messi, Haaland and Mbappé all back on the pitch. We preview England vs Ghana tomorrow night, answer two listener questions about Man City's Premier League chances, and pick through the newly released 2026/27 fixtures — including the Manchester derby in September and Liverpool vs City in October.

  • The World Cup is Here!

    The World Cup is Here!
    Jun 14 2026

    The World Cup is three days old and it's already completely lost its mind. Mexico's opener produced a record THREE red cards. The USA tore Paraguay apart 4-1 in the best 45 minutes American football has ever seen — then lost Pulisic to a calf injury at half-time. Vinícius Jr pulled off a wonder goal to rescue Brazil against a Morocco side who looked every bit as dangerous as they did in 2022. Scotland scored their first World Cup goal in 28 years. And Australia delivered the shock of the tournament with a 2-0 dismantling of Türkiye that nobody saw coming.

    Chris and Sam react to all eight matches, pick apart the weekend's standout fixtures — including Netherlands vs Japan and Ivory Coast vs Ecuador — and then lock in their official tournament predictions on the scoreboard. Winner, Golden Boot, dark horse, biggest flop, player of the tournament, England's finish and more. All on the record. No take-backs. No VAR reviews.

    Plus: England have landed in Kansas City, Tuchel says they're "in the tunnel" now, and Croatia are three days away. The summer starts here.

    New episodes throughout the World Cup. Next up: England vs Croatia Reaction Pod, dropping after Wednesday's opener.

  • We are back!

    We are back!
    Jan 13 2026
    A fresh year and a fresh microphone disaster. After losing the first twenty minutes of recording, Chris and Sam go again with a packed roundup. They break down Michael Carrick’s arrival at Manchester United, what Steve Holland brings to the set up, and how the Manchester derby could shape the week ahead. There’s chat on City’s new signing Semenyo, transfer rumours, England left back debates, and a no holding back look at Blackburn and Blackpool’s recent form. The lads wrap up with what’s next on the fixture list and a bit of family football chaos from over Christmas.
