Football Ramble
The Preview Show: Foreverkusen
It was heartbreak for Aston Villa last night – but at least Matty Cash isn’t in the throes of a zombie apocalypse.
Marcus, Luke, Jim and Andy reflect on Olympiacos’ ascent to Mount Olympus with the Europa Conference League trophy and wonder if Bayer Leverkusen will ever lose again after they broke the European record. There’s also a huge weekend in the title race to get stuck into, Fulham’s owner appearing in a wrestling match, and Nobby Solano’s return to the north-east!
Plus, Wayne Rooney completes his journey to becoming Luke’s all-time favourite Top Bloke. Join us!
