  • Why Footballers Eat THIS Before Kick-Off (It’s Not What You Think!)

    Why Footballers Eat THIS Before Kick-Off (It’s Not What You Think!)
    Dec 7 2025
    We’re back from FC United! ⚽️ In this episode of Kicking Back, we unpack a proper grassroots football day out - from the atmosphere and fans to what makes non-league football feel so raw, honest, and important. Proper football - no frills, all heart. ❤️

    Things spiral quickly as we build a combined five-a-side team - but made entirely out of takeaway meals. Debates are had, questionable selections are justified, and certain iconic orders cause serious disagreement. 🍕🍔🔥

    Millie then reveals the surprising pre-match meal footballers love (yes, really) as we chat routines, superstitions, and how food choices before kick-off are often a lot less glamorous than you’d expect. 🍽️⚽️

    We round things off with an absolutely catastrophic game of Draw The Baller, where confidence is sky-high, artistic ability is rock-bottom, and guessing skills somehow get worse as the game goes on! 🎨😭
