Max Rushden is joined by Barry Glendenning, Elis James and Mark Langdon to discuss the weekend’s football action.

Starting in the Premier League with the biggest ding-dong of the weekend, the pod wonders whether either Liverpool or Tottenham will get any closer to Manchester City next season. Moving on to Arsenal’s rampant performance against Everton, there are encouraging signs the transfer window may end up a net positive for Arsène Wenger.

Moving through the rest of the Premier League fixtures, the pod discusses Raheem Sterling’s miss, and whether it’s any worse than those of Rosenthal and Iwelumo and which minor celebrity they’d prefer to be barracked by from the sidelines.

We get Elis’s thoughts on his beloved, beleaguered Swansea before moving to the Football League, and the news that both Leeds and Bradford have let managers go in the hunt for promotion.

We talk to Sid Lowe, who’s stuck in the mountains on his way back from the Asturian derby, Archie Rhind-Tutt gives us the latest on the Bundesliga, and Max and Barry invite you into their boulangerie and piazza, respectively.

Back on Thursday!
