Wednesday, 04 February 09, 03:39 PM

A slightly earlier than usual podcast for you this week but fear not, the same low, low quality exists despite only having 6 days to prepare.

In the absence of Tom Thom(p)son I'm joined in studio by OleOle's Harry Hotspur and on the agenda is:

  • The transfer window
  • Robbie Keane's return to Spurs
  • Andrei Arshavin's arrival at Arsenal and why he didn't go to Portsmouth for £25m and pair of trainers
  • Charles Insomnia and his new life at Wigan
  • Luigi's on from Spain to talk managerial firings and Villarreal's slump
  • Premier League predictions which include a look ahead to the North London derby

After a week off we're back. Only because you sent us so many emails and stuff. No, really. Both of you showing such concern really meant a lot to us.

On this week's show:

  • The transfer window - Kaka, Bellamy, De Jong, Palacios and more inflated prices
  • Italy - Gabriele gives us an Italian perspective on the Kaka story plus more about Mourinho
  • Spain - Luigi on Ramon Calderos's resignation and Eto'o's madness
  • Premier League predictions
  • Tom's thoughts on Rafa's rant and contract situation
  • Other stuff (may contain nuts)

The Week in Football - Episode 82

Thursday, 08 January 09, 11:04 AM

Happy new year TWIFers, hope you had a jolly nice festive season and all that came with it.

In this week's show we decided there had been just too much football to catch up with everything so you'll find the following:

  • Our pathetic attempt to catch up with everything
  • Transfer news, rumours and speculation
  • News from Italy with Gabriele
  • A look at the Spanish fixtures for this coming weekend
  • Where are they now?
  • Fantasy Football update
  • Premier League predictions

So enough to ease you gently into a new podcasting year.

And there's more waffle in there too. You can subscribe to The Week in Football using iTunes by clicking here, if you want to subscribe to the RSS feed itself the URL is here, you can download the podcast directly here or you can listen from this page:

The week in football - episode 77

Thursday, 20 November 08, 06:51 AM

Hello all, hope you had a good week in football. My week in football was quite poo, thanks for asking. Defeat for my teams (the one I support and the one I play for) has left me most unhappy with football but this week is a new week and who knows.

Anyway, on to this week's podcast and up for discussion this week are:

  • International friendlies and should clubs be compensated when players are injured on international duty (see: Arsenal + Theo Walcott)
  • What's wrong with Arsenal? Great one week, crap the next.
  • Italian football including this weekend's crunch game between Inter and Juventus
  • A brief look ahead to the Spanish fixtures
  • Premier League review, discussion and predictions
