Mark Clattenburg, Ian Ladyman, and Gordon Smart are back with another explosive episode of Whistleblowers.

From Clattenburg’s questionable Great North Run “training plan” (Guinness, cupcakes, and all) to a heated debate over whether the Premier League’s “Big Six” even exists anymore. The lads tackle the rise of Newcastle, Aston Villa, and Everton, the financial walls blocking smaller clubs, and why kids today follow Messi and Ronaldo before they follow clubs.

They also dive into the emotional core of football - what loyalty really means, how supporting your team can carry you through life’s hardest moments, and why even a Burnley win can lift spirits in times of struggle.
