    A tricky time for VAR? How well does AI know the hosts?
    Dec 23 2025

    A wonderful episode to end the year. We talk VAR after a tough weekend for the officials and we ask Co-Pilot about the hosts. How much does AI know?

    A huge thank you to all of our guests in 2025. We will be back in 2026 with a fresh new look and even more wonderful guests!

  • Is football in crisis? Is the Cobblers v Peterborough a terrible derby?

    Is football in crisis? Is the Cobblers v Peterborough a terrible derby?
    Dec 16 2025

    This week we discuss all the big refereeing discussion points. Is football in crisis and how do we improve the discipline within it? How long can football absorb the discipline issues within it and the constant barrage of 'discussion' from the media?

    Is the NENE derby a terrible derby? And was Kevin Nolan right to call the Cobblers' red card 'ridiculous?'

    Join us once again for some fine refereeing debate on the number 1 refereeing podcast!
