Hi everyone!

In August's episode of "Aches & Games monthly" we go football crazy, with a face-off between Rematch and FC25 for our SubClub and inspired by the lionesses and the women's Euros in general. But fear not and footy-phobics - we also talk gigs, games and general gibberish as we go through what else we've been doing, watching and playing this month.
