Football Ramble
Bald fraud
•
The Premier League vs Man City began yesterday. And while Lionel Hutz is still reading out the charges, we thought we better try and get our heads around what it all means.
Marcus, Vish and Andy discuss the biggest legal standoff since Wagatha Christie and look ahead to Aston Villa beginning their tax evasion tour of Europe with a game against Young Boys on the 3G. Just mind where you leave your backpacks behind the goals, lads.
