    May 23 2025

    This week, we're wrapping up the 2024/25 Premier League season with our End-of-Season Awards episode! From Manager of the Year to Signing of the Season, and the always controversial Premier League Team of the Year (TOTY) — we're breaking it all down.

    Join us as we relive the biggest moments, spotlight the breakout stars, and debate who really deserves the top honors from one of the most dramatic EPL campaigns in recent memory.

  • S2 Episode 33 - Gearing Up For Pre-Season
    May 16 2025

    This week, we're joined by returning guest Ross McNeilly, former coach at Dorking Wanderers and Aldershot, to explore what really happens once the final whistle blows.


    We break down the modern off-season: from post-season tours and player fatigue, to the growing trend of “pre-season before pre-season.” Are clubs overworking their players? Is the off-season becoming a myth? And how can coaches better support recovery while still preparing for the season ahead?

    Whether you’re a player about to head into your off-season or a coach looking for fresh ideas and perspective, this is a must-listen conversation on rest, readiness, and the changing rhythm of the football calendar.

  • S2 Episode 32 - From Xbox to Wembley Way ft. Nathan Owolabi
    May 2 2025

    This week we’re diving into the ultimate Football Manager dream come true. Joined by Nathan Owolabi—a legend of the FM community turned real-life first-team analyst at Bromley FC—we explore how a passion for virtual tactics led to a pitchside role during a National League promotion push. After winning a competition run by Xbox and Football Manager, Nathan made the leap from screen to sideline, and he’s here to share the incredible journey. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to go from gaming to ground-level in professional football, this one’s for you.
