Episode Notes

Paul Sampson has done it again. With the most important game of the season on the line, he's packed his bags for Paris. Typical.

Step forward Wynney - no longer of The Nags Head, and ready to fill the void as he slowly recovers. But can two arch rivals really set aside their history? In this episode Steve and Wynney attempt to clear the air - tackling Brian Marshall's player outreach, being barred from the Oak, providing intel on the Nags Head, and the lingering question on everyone's lips: is there a way back for Wynney?

Plus: a recap of the end of season livestream, emotional Premier League farewells, Hull's promotion to the big time, and calls for the Champions League final to be free-to-air.

Cole Palmer, Harry Maguire, Mo Salah and David Beckham all feature in another packed edition of your favourite footballing podcast.

VAR. XG. Inverted wing backs. The game has well and truly gone. Via his very own podcast, Steve Bracknall, Sunday league assistant manager and viral sensation will bring it back.

Direct from the dressing room of his team, Royal Oak FC, Steve is joined by gaffer Paul Sampson and physio Bob the Bucket. Every episode, they’ll make sense of all the week’s footballing news and bring you updates from the Oak…
