The end of the Championship season is near and there is a strong sense of pressure amongst the top sides pushing for a return to the Premier League...or would they rather stay put? Well based on some results in particular, it's really hard to tell. One of those bizarre results came at a huge cost for Leeds, as they made the Friday evening journey t…

An exciting weekend full of cup action, surprising results and plenty of VAR controversy (as per usual). This past weekend's action saw both Glasgow clubs in Scottish Cup action, with Rangers getting the job done in 90 minutes against Hearts winning 2-0. Celtic however were taken the distance by Aberdeen, who equalized twice on the brink of full ti…

A weekend of Derbies...oh boy this is going to be fun. That's right! This past weekend's action was packed Derby Day fever, featuring the East Anglian derby in the Championship between Norwich & Ipswich, The Glasgow derby in the cinch Premiership between Celtic & Rangers and the North-West derby Premier League clash between Man United & Liverpool. …

Happy Easter to you all football fans! We made it through the final wave of the internationals and here we are to embrace the final stages of the football season, the period that proves to be decisive for us all for our beloved clubs. It proved to be a not so Good Friday for Cardiff fans after producing a below par performance against Sunderland an…

Just one more international break! However this this time of the season can prove to be a blessing for some football fans, especially those who's clubs have not been performing to their best or that their country has already guaranteed their spot at the EUROs in June and/or both...well long story short, let's just say Fennan may not feel the same a…

Dramatic late goals, three horse race for the title, playoff scraps and a relegation battle between at least six teams...these are what makes the Championship the best league in the world. Speaking of the Championship, Cardiff have been flying high as of late and that didn't stop this past weekend when the Bluebirds produced a roaring comeback to b…

We may have overdone it with our "Winter break"...sorry guys! A lot has taken place over the past month, but it certainly gave us a lot to talk about. After a underwhelming deadline day, it has proved costly for Brendan Rodgers and Celtic, surrendering top spot to their Glasgow rivals Rangers. However with Rangers suffering a 2-1 defeat on the week…

This episode is only what I can describe as "therapeutic" for both Fennan and Mayhem, who both had a lot to say this week as they both reached their boiling points in regards to ownership of football clubs. In the wake of the horrific scenes we witnessed at Reading this past week, we strongly acknowledge during this episode that we may come across …

We're half way through the January transfer window and based off of the amount of activity that has taken place so far, it goes to show that this period really isn't easy for teams to add much needed reinforcements, especially with the Asian Cup and AFCON competitions simultaneously ongoing. This transfer window has proved to be frustrating for May…

Happy 2024 everyone! The festive period is over and the new year has begun, which is seen as a crucial time of the football season for some. The January transfer market is open for teams to explore much needed reinforcements, however they never come around easy at this time of year and will cost clubs a pretty penny to lure in prized assets from el…

The festive season is here! The time of the year where we get to put our feet up, spend time with our loved ones, enjoy a few drinks and plenty of food. However the the biggest thing that we look forward to the most...plenty of football! Mayhem had plenty to vent and get off his chest in this week's episode, as Celtic have not had the best the time…

No more international breaks until March, thank god! The festive period is upon us and the time of the year where things start to heat up on the football calendar, with plenty of action in store for us all. Celtic endured a tough week back from the internationals, drawing 1-1 to Motherwell in the league and then suffered a 2-0 defeat away to Lazio …

Just one more international break to get through after this week and we're free until next year, but let's not worry about that too much. As much as we can show our acknowledgement for our countries, it's club football that we truly admire. Starting off with Chelsea taking the main headlines again as they produced an entertaining spectacle at Stamf…

You just knew VAR was going to have it's name in one episode this season, but based on the outcome of games this week, it was too hard to ignore. VAR was the complete centre of chaos for some big games this week, including Arsenal's 1-0 defeat against Newcastle and Monday night's clash between London rivals Chelsea and Tottenham, which saw Spurs fi…

What a cruel and dark time it is to be a United fan. After crumbling against the Manchester rivals yet again, it truly shows that the club feels completely fragmented from top to bottom and ultimately all of the toxicity amongst the fans is by all means still directed towards the Glazers, but some heads are now turning towards Erik Ten Haag and the…

Uh oh we have another one! Sandro Tonali has been banned for 10 months for breaching betting rules. The 23-year old will not be eligible to play again until August and will be unavailable to feature at Euro 2024 next summer should Italy qualify. After Scotland's fantastic achievement of qualifying for Euro 2024, Celtic returned to club football act…

Champions League never fails to live up to expectations, but it certainly does hurt when your team end up on the wrong side of a dramatic result. Unfortunately that was the case with Celtic who hosted Lazio at a packed out Celtic Park and under the lights - paradise purely in it's perfect element. The hosts broke the deadlock through Kyogo Furuhash…

Holy Moley! Michael Beale's time at Rangers has come to an end after 10 months in charge and off the back of a 3-1 home defeat to Aberdeen, which leaves Rangers 3rd in the cinch Premiership table. Frank Lampard has been heavily linked to be Beale's successor. Celtic left it late against Motherwell but managed to come away with all three points than…

Ange Postecoglu got his first taste of a North London derby this past week as Spurs and Arsenal produced an entertaining spectacle, resulting in a 2-2 draw at the Emirates. De Zerbi's Brighton are flying high and continue to thrive under the Italian despite selling key players over the last year, the recruitment team are proving to be pivotable wit…

It's been far too long...but a long time coming! After suffering defeat in their last four South Wales derbies, Erol Bulut's Bluebirds finally overcame their biggest rivals, Swansea with a 2-0 victory in their Saturday night encounter in the Welsh capital. Cardiff kept good times rolling, following up with a 3-2 home win against a strong Coventry s…

The Summer transfer window is now closed! It has certainly been a transfer window to remember as we saw some of the biggest names in world football make big moves to new clubs...or just to Saudi Arabia. After what has been an unconvincing start to Brendan Rodgers' second spell at the Celtic helm, the pressure was certainly eased after coming out on…

Football is a game that is nothing but filled with surprises. To put it into more specific terms, a wise man once said "Sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe s**t." With the Premier League season well underway, we have had plenty to catch up on and to discuss from this past weekend. Darwin Nunez came off the bench to to score a brace to give 10 man…

Football is back and so are we! Still a week to go until the Premier League campaign kicks off, but we still had lots to enjoy from this past weekend from the Sky Bet Championship, League 1, League 2 and cinch Premiership. Fennan & Mayhem are back in the Booth after a few weeks off during the summer to bring to you the premiere of Season 3, catchin…

Our time off didn't last, we just had to come back to share our thoughts on the transfer window news so far...and whack in a quiz in the mean time of course! Fennan, Mayhem and Cam come together in the Booth to share their opinions on the transfer business conducted so far and Gondor returns as our quizmaster for this weeks' quiz. Follow The Footba…

It's not all rain and sunshine for Celtic fans as Brendan Rodgers has officially become Celtic's new manager, replacing Ange Postecoglu. Opinions are divided amongst the Green Brigade, but how will Brendan fair during his second spell in charge? Fennan, Mayhem and Cam round up in the Booth for one last time for this season to share their thoughts o…

What a huge week it’s been for Man City and West Ham fans. We’re pretty sure the celebrations are continuing as we speak…we know Jack Grealish is. Pep Guardiola firmly cemented his name in the managers hall of fame after Man City sealed the treble this past Saturday, lifting the Champions League trophy in Istanbul after a 1-0 victory against a resi…

After two successful years full of glory and silverware, Ange Postecoglu bids farewell to Celtic as he takes his next step in his managerial career, becoming Tottenham's new manager, also making him the first Australian to manage in the Premier League. Cardiff also announced their new manager in Erol Bulut, two weeks after it was announced that Sab…

After what has been a breath-taking season full of highs and lows for all, the Premier League campaign has finally come to an end...but it wasn't a happy ending for some fans. Everton experienced final day delight and relief after coming away with a 1-0 victory against Bournemouth in front of a packed out Goodison Park to retain their Premier Leagu…

They done it again! Man City are crowned Premier League champions and have more silverware in their sights when they meet rivals, Man United in the F.A Cup final and Inter Milan in the Champions League final, which would be a historic treble winning season for the Citizens and a season that has not been achieved since Man United's 1999 season. The …

The end of the football season is rapidly approaching, but with that comes plenty of spectacles to look forward to in the next few weeks...well except for Arsenal fans. The Gunners sealed their fate in conceding the Premier League title to Man City after suffering a brutal 3-0 home defeat to Brighton. Southampton made their relegation to the Champi…

We’re now into the month of May, the time where we start to see the drawing of the curtains to the football season. However there is nothing set in stone as of yet in the Premier League. With Man City and Arsenal still chasing the title, Liverpool putting late pressure on Man United for a top four finish and Southampton on the brink of relegation, …

After being on a week hiatus there was a lot football for us to catch up on, but the big question which is on most/every football fans' mind right now: Are Arsenal still in with a chance of winning the title? After dropping points to the likes of Liverpool, West Ham, and Southampton over the last two weeks, Arsenal inevitably surrendered their plac…

Well you could feel it coming, but the cracks are now really starting to show for Arsenal. For the second week running, Arsenal drop points from a 2-0 lead this time against West Ham to potentially hand Manchester City an advantage in the title race after Erling Haaland equalled Mo Salah’s record of 32 goals in a 38-game Premier League season durin…

There's always a strong hint of excitement when Easter weekend comes around.

Celtic were in action on Saturday in a particular fixture that we have seen to become…

After enduring international football for the last fortnight, we finally got that exciting feeling of having club football back in our lives...well at least for some football fans. The biggest news that came out of this past weekends' action was seeing Graham Potter and Brendan Rodgers both leave their roles as head coach at Chelsea and Leicester r…

It's that time of the football season where club football takes a pause for a fortnight and our attentions are turned to watching our countries in action. The qualification campaign for EURO 2024 was underway this past week. Scotland got themselves off to bright start with a 3-0 victory against Cyprus at Hampden Park, but Spain and Norway are waiti…

The fight for survival in the Championship took another strange twist...as did the weather at the New York Stadium as we saw Rotherham's game against Cardiff was abandoned at the beginning of the second half due to a heavy downfall of rain, bringing the match a sudden halt and ultimately brought the fixture to a close. This raised plenty of frustra…

The race for the top four took another exquisite and bizarre turn this past week as Arsenal and Man City were the only two sides within the top four to pick up victories. Despite crashing out of the Champions League to Milan midweek, Tottenham got themselves back to winning ways with a 3-1 home victory against Nottingham Forest in a season that has…

Wow oh wow. We certainly witnessed some incredible footballing spectacles this past week, with Liverpool producing the biggest headline of them all with a remarkable 7-0 thrashing over bitter rivals Man United and not only significantly boosting their hopes of finishing in the top four but also made history as this was Man United's heaviest defeat …

Celtic retain the Scottish League Cup (Viaplay Cup) after coming out on top against fiercest rivals Rangers 2-1 in a thrilling spectacle at Hampden Park.
