My Biddy Aunt: Last-minute legends

Nottingham Forest fans and Ange Postecoglou are just some of the people we currently feel sorry for. Unfortunately, for Evangelos Marinakis he's not on the list...

Today, Marcus, Vish and Jim share their thoughts on the increasingly toxic situation at Nottingham Forest. Plus, Enzo Maresca is forced to ask his team for a very basic request and we give The Flintstones an unreasonable amount of airtime.

The Preview Show: Flintstones cops

Marcus, Luke and Jim are back to gorge on more Champions League delights! And the entire history of Eric Dier's penalty record is the perfect place to start for Marcus...

Luke wonders whether last night's draw in Monaco is further evidence that this is Man City's level now, while Jim is left absolutely stunned by the new 'Roy-kini' at Dublin Fashion Week. There's also time to give Newcastle their dues after a 4-0 thumping in Belgium which had nothing at all to do with the First World War, and Scotland's Ballon d'Or representative goes rogue. Join us!

Penthony Gordon

Liverpool have lost two games in a row. Today, Vish isn't calling it a crisis but he does tell Marcus and Jim that he knows of a Premier League manager that could fix all of their problems.

Elsewhere, José Mourinho returned to Stamford Bridge and blew a kiss to our very own Marcus Speller. Plus, Erling Haaland is being uncharacteristically wholesome. We're not happy about it...

The Altruistic One

Things are going from really, really bad at Manchester United to somehow dramatically worse. So, is it time for old Jim Ratcliffe to bin off the second manager of his tenure and wave goodbye to Ruben Amorim?

Marcus, Luke & Jim give their rather robust thoughts on that. Plus, what next for Graham Potter after his miserable spell at West Ham?

And given it's a Tuesday, we've got a little Brucey bonus for you. Consider it a treat from us.

Mailbag: Should Manchester United sack Ruben Amorim?

Plucky Crystal Palace are the only side still unbeaten in the Premier League. Today, Marcus, Luke, Jim and Pete give them their long overdue flowers.

Arsenal also get their flowers for winning a battle at St James' Park. Plus, we ring the Saturday sacking alarm as Graham Potter leaves West Ham and we learn what Jonjo Shelvey is up to these days.

Is that the Saturday sacking music?

It's a game of Jack's Encyclopaedia for the history books: if Luke wins out against Marcus today, then he'll become the first ever unified belt holder in Football Ramble quizzing history. It's a big old day for the Luke Nation!

He's already the My Biddy Aunt lineal champ, but can he strip the Jack's Encyclopaedia belt from Marcus' grasp? Pete's refereeing this bout. Let's be having ya!

Jack’s Encyclopaedia: Ballon d'Or winners, Spaniards, and Europa League managers

The first week of the Europa League is done and dusted. Highlights included Aston Villa finally getting a win and the Nice eagle getting blasted in the face by a sprinkler.

Today, Marcus, Luke and Pete mull over that before Donny throws down the gauntlet for Arsenal to finally get a win at St James’ Park. We also question whether Mark Clattenburg really did throw a boot at José Mourinho.

The Preview Show: Tutankhamun’s soul patch

There's nothing quite like a can of Carabao to help us digest a night of football which saw four Premier League behemoths gobble up their lower-league opposition.

Pete tells Luke and Jim why he's interested in a machine that takes control of the nervous system and ingests those delicious Carabaos for you. He also explains why he's in trouble thanks to a colony of woodworms. There's some football talk too, promise...

Inside Luke's Pantry

Despite scoring, last night should probably be considered a bad night for Hugo Ekitike. Do you think the fact that Pete has written a new chant for him will make him feel better today? Donny performs his masterpiece for Marcus and Luke.

Elsewhere, Lamine Yamal's dad joins an illustrious club of mental football fathers. Plus, the Palm Trees take on the Tricky Trees tonight!
