Football Ramble
Koeman vs Bergwijn
•
Koeman vs Bergwijn, Gordon Ramsay vs Jeremy Clarkson and – the derby of Europe – England vs Finland. Marcus, Luke and Jim are back to talk about all the biggest clashes you can possibly think of.
We decide who’s right, who’s wrong, and who’s got their balls out in the continuing standoff between Ronald Koeman and former Spurs man, Steven Bergwijn.
Plus, the president of a club in Italy makes a dramatic contribution from a helicopter. But by the way… can I have a piece of that egg? And we're not talking about Lee Carsley.
