S4 E38 - Football vs Rugby

Season 4, Ep. 38

It's international break again, and it feels like it has been a long while since the last round which is nice. This week we talk the rugby vs football debate, an in-depth chat around Ben White's decision to not be considered for England. Why does Will say "Commando" in an American accent. Leicester got a points deduction too from the Premier League, plus Mike Ashley sulks with Newcastle because they won't sell their shirts to him. Haha.
