    Anybody know any good football podcasts? I listen to Football Weekly and the World Football show on BBC's website, find its a good way to catch on football news I might have missed or wouldn't normally see in the papers. I'd be interested to know of any others that you would recommend.

    The off the ball football section is quite good

    I download 'The Football Show' from Newstalk daily and it has definitely improved my life. It's excellent to listen to on the move, or before going to sleep. I would highly reccomend it.

    I'd recommend the obvious ones but I know a lot of people are in the same boat where they listened to yer Rambles and yer FW's and got sick of them after a while. For example I now have a 6 webpage restraining order on anything Michael Cox does.

    Football weekly is crap when Barry Glendenning isn't on it most of the time.

    Ken Early is a god of the podcasts imo on Second Captains.

    These are the only 2 football ones I listen to really but will definitely look into some suggestions on this thread.

    Guardian Football Weekly
    BBC Five's The World Football show
    Second Captains

    They are the ones I stick with ... Ive tried others but always come back to them.

    The World Football Show is so weird, the callers are a special kind of person that not even 606 can compete with.

    Anything with Ken Early on it needs to be avoided.

    I concur with everything in this post. Please remove yourself from my mind.

    Think Glendenning is a bit of a clown to be honest. Prefer it when he's not there.

    Listen to Football Weekly and Second Captains. Occasionally listen to the Off the Ball football show one. Used to listen to the Football Ramble but got a bit sick of them all trying so hard to be funny all the time.

    Yep, The Big Interview is good.

    The Blizzard is great for the football nerds, some great stories like when East vs. West Germany in the 74 World Cup.

    Football Ramble is just annoying, just lads doing the bantz.

    The Game by the Times is probably better than Football Weekly now, but they only do a review show on a Monday as far as I know.

    Mad Men's Don Draper : What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons.

    He gets less annoying the more I listen to him oddly enough. He was excellent on the one they did after Jose got sacked, nailed it more than any other podcast or article.

    The one downfall of the The Game is it's so London-centric and by extension the EPL compared to the others. The Football Ramble/Football Weekly are almost phoned in at this stage, so formulaic. They tend to improve strangely in international weeeks because they can't say how Arsenal were great or how Aston Villa/Sunderland lost again.

    Not new but Sky's La Liga Weekly is good and for fans of Sid Lowe, the Spanish football podcast where he gets more time than Football Weekly and talk about more than Real/Barca.

    I usually tune in to the Sunday Supplement and if I miss it listen back on the podcast on the sky website.

    Ken said he was begging to be sacked if I remember rightly..which if you ask me is a load of old cobblers...he was trying to get a reaction by questioning the player's professionalism.
