The week in football

Good evening fans of the week in football. This week's podcast is truly action packed, let me tell you.

• We have discussion of the Carling Cup final and the horrific injury suffered by Arsenal's Eduardo
• In Spain Luigi tells us why and how Barcelona are just two points behind Real Madrid now
• Gabriele in Italy tells us all about the homo-erotic Catania goal celebrations
• Plus we meet Tom Thom(p)son's replacement Paul Paulson as we preview this week's Premier League action

Hello all, and by all I mean Trevor. I know he's the only one who ever reads this blog. And I don't even know anyone called Trevor.

Anyway, just to give you a rundown on what's in this weeks "The week in football".

• A chat with Teo who's in Ghana for the ACN. We talk about the football, the players, and what the experience has been like for him over there covering the tournament for OleOle.
• Gabriele tells us about controversy surrounding Roma's win last weekend and a player who once kicked a balboy up the arse
• From Spain Luigi talks about Valencia manager Ronald Koeman receiving the dreaded 'pañolada' from the home fans. How long can he last in the job after they got beaten by lowly Almeria?
• Tom Thom(p)son and I go over your emails, chat about the format of the Champions League and proposed restrictions on the 'big leagues', discuss the week's Premier League results (Tom is not a happy camper due to Liverpool being a bit crap) and we look ahead to this weekend's fixtures and make our predictions.

As always we're more than happy to hear from you so feel free to comment here or email podcast@oleole.com

Cheers,

John Johson 

As well as all your usual favourite stuff (quiet, you) this week I'll be talking to Phil Hay from the Yorkshire Evening Post about what's happened to Leeds United.

How is a club that was contesting the semi-finals of the Champions League only 6 years ago now on the brink of relegation to League 1 and what does the future hold for them with the threat of administration looming large?

Find out on The Week in Football this Thursday.

In this week's podcast we'll be talking about the title race in Spain, Italian football and whether or not Serie A will be more competitive next season, there'll be more Premiership predictions (and this time Tom Thom(p)son will try not to lose like the big loser he is), we'll review the Champions League semi-finals, there's good news for Longford Town and hopefully we'll be talking to someone about the MLS.

Tune in tomorrow and don't forget if you have a question or a comment then you can email podcast@oleole.com or leave a comment here.
