NEW PODCAST: www.sofpodcast.com/2025/09/soun...
VAR messes up yet again, we didn't even make it out of August before the PGMOL's first apology of the season.
Also this week: once is happenstance, twice coincidence, three times is enemy action - what's happening to former Manchester United managers?

We talked on the pod about the lack of VAR (and GLT) in the weekend's FA Cup games and, broadly, how it improved the experience as entertainment
Last night's 3 minute delay to confirm something on-field officials had already allowed proves why
Anyone who says it added even more drama is an idiot

Football hooliganism wasnโt isolated to a particular place - it was was and remains widespread.
But, its roots in hooligan firms in the UK are well-known. The legacy of hooliganism is still felt today.
