  • Underwhelming England head to Serbia + dream debuts in the WSL
    Sep 8 2025

    Jimbo's got Matt Davies-Adams, Michael Cox and Tom Williams alongside him to run the rule over a busy weekend of international qualifiers and WSL action.


    England's 2-0 victory over Andorra at Villa Park was perhaps predictably drab, but it was goals galore elsewhere and records broken for the likes of Spain, Belgium and the Netherlands - not to mention emotional scenes in Buenos Aires after Lionel Messi's last match on home soil with Argentina.


    There's a chance to reflect on the news that broke late on Thursday that Daniel Levy is to leave Tottenham after nearly 25 years as the league’s longest-serving executive chairman.


    And the brand new WSL season got underway in some style with Chelsea continuing their remarkable unbeaten run, Olivia Smith scoring a banger on her Emirates debut - and Ornella Vignola bagging a hat-trick on her debut at Anfield in the Merseyside derby!


    We've got epic away days, BBQs, sinkholes and Italy actually looking good in a World Cup qualifier for once...


    Produced by Charlie Jones and Lucy Oliva.

    • PART 1: World Cup qualifiers round up (00.50)

    • PART 2: England 2-0 Andorra (18.30)

  • Totally Extra: the rise and fall of Colombia in the 90s
    Sep 6 2025

    Jimbo welcomes Duncan Alexander, Felipe Cardenas and Luis Miguel Echegaray to discuss one of the great forgotten sides of the last three decades - the Colombia team of the early 90s.


    Led by Carlos Valderrama and sprinkled with the antics of goalkeeper Rene Higuita, Colombia captured the affections of many neutrals at Italia 90 and an iconic 5-0 win in Argentina saw them installed amongst the favourites for USA 94.


    Amid the backdrop of death threats from the cartels, a side featuring Asprilla and Rincon were eliminated early with Andres Escobar tragically murdered 10 days after scoring a crucial own goal. Not the only Escobar in this remarkable story.


    Produced by Charlie Jones and Lucy Oliva.


    RUNNING ORDER:

    • PART 1a: The best hamburger in Atlanta and Duncan’s quiz question (02.30)

    • PART 1b: Big Colombian football anniversaries (07.30)
