He’s dead, Vish

Marcus, Andy, Luke and Vish are here with some consoling words for our Welsh brethren, after their Euros journey fell at the final hurdle last night. Here’s hoping they triumph in their next Penalty Competition™. Elsewhere, England let the handbrake off and nabbed a draw against Belgium - might be worth putting the handbrake back on, as it turns out. Plus, Georgia get to showcase their incredible bread selection at the Euros for the first time and Vish dredges up some dead Scotsmen to inspire them ahead of their summer escapades.

Dr Feelgood Factor

England may have lost to Brazil but you can’t create the feelgood factor without having a bad moment first, right? Today, Marcus, Jim, Vish and Pete hold onto that hope and book Kobbie Mainoo a seat on the plane after seeing that one turn in the second half. Oooft. Elsewhere, the lads take heart in realising France are now sh*t after they lost to Germany and James McFadden vows never to return to Amsterdam after Scotland got gubbed by the Netherlands.

Mailbag: Has Gareth Southgate been a success for England?

The narrative that has been created around Southgate is one of squandered opportunities and an inability to match tactics against the elite in Europe. Is that fair? Would a penalty shootout win against Italy have changed everything? Marcus, Andy and Vish explore that on today’s show. Elsewhere, Vish makes his case for Brazil as the defining international team in football history. Plus, could Bagpipes be the new Vuvuzela?

The Boffin's Premier League

Kobbie Mainoo is the latest addition to Gareth’s Governors so naturally, Marcus is swinging from the chandelier. Before that however, the boffins at the Premier League are forcing Marcus, Luke, Jim and Vish to wade through an annoying amount of admin after Nottingham Forest’s points deduction. Maybe that’s the real deterrent?

Concerning… Elsewhere, Luke tells Marcus, Vish and Pete that he thinks Man United vs Liverpool was the barn-burner of the season. However, he also reveals that it wasn’t even the most exciting thing to happen this weekend after he had a bust up on X with Matt Le Tissier’s daughter-in-law.

Marcus, Luke and Jim whizz round the best moments from last night’s European Battle of the Banter, as plenty of English sides impressed and Anthony Taylor delivered the best mugging off you’ll ever see from a ref. We then look ahead to this weekend’s FA Cup quarter-finals, as Man City face a beleaguered Newcastle and Man Utd face a lawsuit from their own staff.

Ramble Reacts: Chelsea win and Poch goes for dinner

Chelsea delivered a huge blow to Newcastle’s ambitions for the rest of the season – and a huge blow to Andy Brassell’s hopes of watching them play the runners-up from the Slovenian top-flight next season in the Europa Conference League. And that’s all coming from what could have been the real True Geordie, Pete Donaldson. Andy joins Pete to react to Chelsea’s 3-2 win over an increasingly beleaguered Newcastle, who Pete describes with probably the most unflattering simile in the history of football analysis. The lads discuss a chaotic game where Cole Palmer dazzled again, Mykhailo Mudryk thankfully didn’t offer out another fan again, and Mauricio Pochettino didn’t cancel dinner with his wife again. Plus, an unexpected appearance from Adam Sandler… Follow us on [Twitter] (https://twitter.com/FootballRamble) , [Instagram] (https://www.instagram.com/footballramble/) , [TikTok] (https://www.tiktok.com/@footballramble?lang=en) and [YouTube] (https://www.youtube.com/user/FootballRamble/videos) , and email us here: [show@footballramble.com] (mailto:show@footballramble.com) .

The Preview Show: Three of your five meats a day

It’s Manchester derby weekend! And there’s one question on everyone’s lips here at the Ramble: will a pie be thrown? Marcus, Luke and Andy talk about those stunning scenes at the Edinburgh derby and ask whether Erik Ten Hag should really be asking for an apology from Fulham’s TikTok account. Luke and Andy lock horns over the Paul Pogba ban and then over Jack’s Encyclopaedia, where there is perhaps the most unexpected winning answer in Ramble history. David Icke is all we’re saying.

Ramble Reacts: Casemiro's crucial bonce

We have our FA Cup quarter-final lineup! And – oh no – Pete sees who Newcastle have drawn while recording the show. But which better Ramble shoulder to cry on than Luke’s? Pete and Luke reflect on a laboured victory for Manchester United that kept them in the hat and another night of Antony being the most predictable winger in the world. Luke also celebrates the return of Normal Bloke Wayne Rooney to our screens and Mark Clattenburg’s roll-neck gets a VAR replay of its own. Plus, why Liverpool’s Jayden Danns’ Eurovision background means he’s destined for stardom – and there’s a shocking revelation about the identity of Luke’s father. Join us!

Small Donny energy

After last night’s FA Cup action, we’re one step closer to Pete spending a load of money so he can watch Newcastle lose to Man City at Wembley. Today, Marcus, Pete, Jim and Andy take a moment to enjoy that fact before debating whether Leicester edging out Bournemouth 1-0 really classes as a cupset. Elsewhere, the lads get excited for Wayne Rooney’s punditry debut, Pete launches a new career as a self-help guru, and Marcus explains why we might not know who gets relegated from the Premier League until June.
