🏆🏅PLEASE VOTE FOR US -BEST PODCAST - PREMIER LEAGUE! - https://footballcontentawards.com/voting

On this week’s episode of the Joy of Football Podcast, Martin and Neil start with Comparisons, where they discuss a range of different Premier League strikers.

Next is ‘We Need to Talk About', all centred on the potential return of Strikers as a mainstay of teams, and also La Liga. 

Then it’s Letter from the Gantry, where Martin recalls the ONLY time he’s ever forgotten his notes for a match! How did he get away with that one?

After that is our usual Three of the Best, featuring Neil telling the story of the ‘Curse of Benfica’!


And we finish with a quick Stoppage Time that doubles as a Weather Report.
