Ramble Reacts: The Cherries beat the sea slugs

Bournemouth beat Southampton 3-1, which means Southampton are still languishing near the bottom of the table. Just how Luke likes it…


Today, he and Jim take a look at Southampton and question how much time Russell Martin has left in the job. Graham Potter loitering in the Sky studio like a vulture probably isn't helping. Speaking of which, Luke explains which Sky presenter is a “poor man’s Gary Cotterill”. A damning comparison!

    Is that… a half fit Harry Kane trundling up the pitch? Oh YES! International football is back and England face Greece tonight!Marcus, Pete and Andy celebrate with wedding cake in the post (Marcus wishes), a sprinkling of David Beckham nostalgia, and some angry reviews of Andrés Iniesta’s vineyard to finish. Plus, Pete’s verdict on some wild fits in the French squad. Better than Harry Maguire’s ‘man accused of insider training’ chic, I suppose.

But football hooliganism didn’t disappear. This series digs deeper – beyond the tabloid articles, beyond the stereotypes – to understand what first attracts people to this subculture and why it’s forced its way back into our society in 2024.Today, you’ll hear Episode 1: Kicking Off. Subscribe at https://lnk.to/englishdisease or search 'The English Disease' to listen to Episode 2 and 3 right now. New episodes drop every Tuesday throughout October.Extraordinary sporting stories that really matter. From Stak, this is Legacy.
  • Timmy ten Hag

    38:22|
    Well, it looks like Erik Ten Hag has bought himself a bit of time following one of the dullest games the Premier League has ever seen. In other words, exactly what the big man needed.But in better news for the Dutchman, Ten Hag wasn't the biggest bald fraud at Villa Park on Sunday. Nope, that honour would go to his ballboy doppelgänger who we're calling Timmy (what's a grown man doing in that role anyway?).Marcus, Jim and Pete are here to dissect all the rest of the Premier League action before the real football starts this week.

  • Mailbag: Is it okay for fans to leave early?

    42:50|
    After the Emirates began to empty out despite Arsenal’s 2-0 lead over PSG, should fans who leave early be called out for their disloyalty? Or should we all just stop whining about it? Luke, Andy, and Vish tackle one of football’s big taboos.Elsewhere, with the old guard of managers almost completely gone (just you left now, Dychey), have managerial mind games become a thing of the past?Plus, why are more players returning to their old clubs and what are our favourite football noises? No, Gary Neville’s orgasm doesn’t count...Find us on X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and email us here: show@footballramble.com.Sign up to the Football Ramble Patreon for ad-free shows for just $5 per month: https://www.patreon.com/footballramble.***Please take the time to rate us on your podcast app. It means a great deal to the show and will make it easier for other potential listeners to find us.

    Arsenal could only manage a 2-0 win at home to PSG. Pathetic. Today, Pete, Vish and Jim (mainly Pete) are here to question why Arsenal weren’t able to despatch this new woke incarnation of PSG by at least four goals, like the mighty Newcastle did last season.Elsewhere, Pete questions whether everyone in the world named Nuri Şahin is extremely handsome. Plus, Charlie Kane appears to have been sourcing some new brand deals for Harry.
