RUNNING ORDER

  • Topic 1 - The Youth of Today - It’s been a good week and season for youngsters playing football. In the FA Cup so far we’ve seen outstanding performances from Billy Gilmour, Eddie Nketiah, and Liverpool’s youngsters early on. So we thought we should celebrate the youth of today by picking out ones that have lit up the season so far (04.50)
  • Topic 2 - International Women's Day - We give a nod to inspirational women in football we might not know about they could be board members, coaches, refs, or even a player that has done something outstanding
    (15.50)
  • Topic 3 -  World Book Day - We imagine footballers as book characters and for bonus points, whether any footballers have interesting connections to books  (27.40)
  • AOB - Formiga, Soccer Aid, and world without Wolves (36.10)
