Jack is joined by Phil to reflect on the weekend's loss to Liverpool. While losing to Liverpool is fairly commonplace for Tottenham, we discuss why the continued poor results and wretched home form are now a cause for major concern. We ask the uncomfortable question: Are Spurs actually too big to go down? We then dive into the psyche of the fanbase and the debate around "purity of ethos" versus winning at all costs. Does a rigid focus on playing a certain way hamper the club's ambition, or is that identity the only thing that matters? Finally, we delve into the Tottenham career of Fabio Paratici, who is reportedly on the verge of a move to Fiorentina. We question whether we will actually feel his loss, and run the rule over the signings made under his stewardship. Theme is Ghost Cat by Gillen Learn more about your ad choices.

Jack reflects off the back of yet another home defeat and defeat to Liverpool - something you'd think we're accustomed to be now, but still the frustration grows. From bad refereeing to questionable decision making from the players - it still felt like a largely uninspiring affair, aside from a rousing ending spearheaded by Richarlison. It needn't be all negatives, but we seriously need to start winning games. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Jack is joined by Billie T to dive back into the shocking performance against Nottingham Forest, lamenting the wheels coming off the previous (minor) upturn in form. We ask if Spurs fans are being too hasty and emotional in calling for Thomas Frank’s head now? Should we stick with him and ride this out, or is it only right that we hold dear to our identity as an attacking side and refuse to compromise? We try to find some positivity amidst the mire of the season, touching on the growing partnership between Xavi Simons and Archie Gray, and why the increased inclusion of the latter shouldn't become a culture war. Billie then answers your questions, discussing the idea of Mohammed Kudus playing a central midfield role to emulate Mousa Dembélé, and which fixture we would choose to play without VAR. Things then get a bit festive as we find out Billie’s all-time favourite Christmas present and his definitive Christmas dinner side. Theme is Ghost Cat by Gillen Learn more about your ad choices.

Jack is joined by Mark Nesbit to discuss the fallout from Tottenham's humbling at the hands of Nottingham Forest. We dive into the "who was to blame" debate between Archie Gray and Guglielmo Vicario, which leads to a wider conversation about the goalkeeper spot. Is it imperative we replace him? And if the backup options aren't good enough either, is this just another sign that the recruitment and talent ID at the club is broken? We discuss whether this is Daniel Levy's legacy playing out before our eyes, and why the Lewis family need to address this sooner rather than later to stop the club sliding into a death spiral. Finally, we get onto Thomas Frank, should he be sacked? Would it be unhealthy to replace another manager so soon, and if we did, who on earth would take over?

After some promising form, a strangely abysmal performance from Spurs at the City ground. Forest fans will no doubt be revelling in this one after the summer's bitter back and forth between the clubs - but once again this felt like the sort of performance that Spurs might have lost, whoever the opposition was.

Jack is joined by Adam Nathan from An Echo of Glory to react to another great night in Europe as Spurs dispatched Slavia Prague. We discuss whether Thomas Frank is finally turning the corner, fuelled by the burgeoning synergy between Xavi Simons and Archie Gray and how pivotal that partnership will be for the rest of the campaign. Conversation then shifts to Mauricio Pochettino, who told the BBC this week that he has "unfinished business" in the Premier League. We ask the big question: would we actually have him back? Is the romanticism worth the risk, or should that door remain closed? Adam then tackles listener questions, including a deep dive into the pros and cons of Pedro Porro... is his attacking output enough to justify the defensive questions?

Jack welcomes Phil back to the pod to bask in the glory of the perfect weekend: a Tottenham win and an Arsenal defeat. We discuss this specific brand of joy, how football dictates our mental health, and the unique "shine" the world takes on when results go our way. We then dive into the performance against Brentford, specifically the 'redemption' of Xavi Simons. Has he finally staked his claim and he absolutely ran the show? Conversation moves to Thomas Frank, his willingness to change his stance on Simons, the newfound aggression in the side, and why we must remember that he is learning on the job. We also touch on a fantastic showing from Archie Gray, look ahead to the Champions League clash with Slavia Prague, and close with a word on Mo Salah’s incendiary comments at Leed and why they make us all the more grateful for the graceful way Sonny bowed out.

Finally, Spurs win a game at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium! Xavi Simons was star of the show as Spurs overcame Thomas Frank's old side at a time when the knives were well and truly out for the Danish manager. Spurs played with more intent and purpose than we've seen in a while (outside of the PSG game) and it paid off - there surely can be no reason to not play Xavi from now on?

Jack is joined by Kish from Lilywhite Lab to try and make sense of the trip to St James' Park. We examine the reaction to the Newcastle game, trying to separate the emotional relief of the result from the rational assessment of the performance. Discussion then turns to the confusing case of Xavi Simons. Is his continued omission a simple struggle to adjust to the Premier League, or a more worrying reflection of a clash with Thomas Frank’s style of play? We also dive into the midfield engine room and ask if it is finally time for Archie Gray to permanently displace Rodrigo Bentancur. Listener questions this week cover the Vicario Debate and whether it's time to upgrade or is the criticism overblown? And we find out who Kish would pick to replace Thomas Frank if the axe ultimately falls. Theme is Ghost Cat by Gillen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Two worldies from Cristian Romero have spared Spurs yet another defeat in the Premier League after a wholly uninspiring performance from Thomas Frank's men.

Jack is joined by Gavin to dissect yet another miserable afternoon in N17 as Tottenham fell to a 2-1 defeat against Fulham. We digest the reality that Spurs have managed just one home win all season, and ask if time is finally up for Thomas Frank. Is he simply unable to handle this level of football, or is it too hasty to pull the trigger? If he does go, who steps in? They look into the potential candidates to replace him and weigh up the pros and cons of another managerial reset. We also touch on the ownership, despite the noise of a boardroom reshuffle, we ask if a leopard can truly change its spots, and discuss what we actually need to see to believe the club isn't entering a death spiral. Finally, we look ahead to Tuesday night’s trip to Newcastle. Is there any hope of a result at St James' Park, or are we destined for another walloping?

Jack is joined by Charlie Parrish to pick the bones out of the 5-3 defeat to PSG. We discuss why, despite the result, there were genuine green shoots of promise in Paris, diving into the stylistic shifts and personnel tweaks Thomas Frank employed, and what this new look means for the rest of the season. We also debate the Xavi Simons situation, is he just taking time to adapt, or is he the latest victim of the club's disjointed squad building? Questions this week cover whether we need to ignore the spectre of Arsenal’s success to truly enjoy Tottenham again, what tracks would feature on Thomas Frank’s Apple playlist, and the morality of passing on Spurs fandom to our children.

Jack is on the mic to react to a breathless 5-3 defeat to PSG in the Champions League. It was a performance that arguably defied the scoreline. Plenty of attacking promise and evidence that Thomas Frank is attempting to be more positive, but ultimately undone by moments of madness at the back and the sheer quality of PSG.

They discuss Randal Kolo Muani’s frustrating injury just as he was starting to find form, and ask whether Richarlison’s time at Spurs should finally be up despite his goal. With fans calling for academy striker Dane Scarlett to be given a real chance, the pair debate whether it’s time to throw him in and see if he’s truly cut out for the Premier League.

What a strange/frustrating/exhilarating match at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium. Two teams who aren't quite sure of how good or bad they are, played out a game that answered little for either set of fans. Just as Richarlison thought he had won it (after a terrible performance from the Brazilian) De Ligt came back and notched an equaliser, which was probably fair on the balance of play. Frank's starting XI and subs have definitely raised a few eyebrows, but at least it wasn't a loss going into the international break. Learn more about your ad choices.

Jack is joined by Gavin to break down Tottenham’s defeat to Aston Villa, a result that laid bare the increasingly cautious nature of Thomas Frank’s side. From the conservative midfield of Palhinha and Bentancur to the lack of attacking spark and Xavi Simons’ quiet display, it was another afternoon where control seemed to take priority over creativity. The pair also question whether Spurs’ struggles come down to tactics or personnel with Tel and Odobert under scrutiny and debate the ongoing concerns around Pape Sarr’s minutes and Vicario’s form.

Tottenham slipped to a 2-1 home defeat against Aston Villa in a flat and frustrating performance at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Questions are now being asked of Thomas Frank’s reserved tactical approach, with his side once again lacking attacking impetus and creativity in the final third.

The conversation turns to new arrival Xavi Simons, what makes him such an exciting signing, and how his interviews reveal a mature young player ready to carry on the legacy of Son Heung-min’s number 7 shirt. Jack and Iain also look ahead to transfer deadline day. Who Spurs need, who they’d like to see, and what it all means for the season ahead. Finally, Iain talks about his own project, Poddenham Podspur – a podcast about Spurs podcasts. What began as a tongue-in-cheek idea has grown into something far more meaningful.

Tottenham have tasted defeat in the Premier League for the fist time under Thomas Frank after a hugely disappointing performance against Bournemouth at White Hart Lane. Not even the pre-match unveiling of Xavi Simons could inspire this Tottenham team to victory as they registered just one shot on target across the entire match. The international break curse lives on. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Tottenham look set to pull off the most unlikely deal of the summer, bringing in Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig in a move agreed overnight. Most fans woke up to the news this morning and the reaction has been nothing short of delight. Jack is joined by Kish from Lilywhite Lab to discuss why this is a genuine statement signing. It’s the star factor Spurs have been craving all summer and a huge lift after the collapse of the Eze deal. We break down what makes Simons such an exciting addition, how his positivity and ambition fit perfectly into this Spurs project, and the impact he could have on the pitch alongside the likes of Sarr, Kudus and Solanke. You can hear more from Kish on the Lilywhite Lounge podcast and follow him across YouTube, TikTok and everywhere else at Lilywhite Lab. Theme tune is ‘Ghost Cat’ by Gillen.

In part two of our special with The Athletic’s Dan Kilpatrick , Jack puts your questions to him in a wide-ranging Q&A. Dan reflects on whether he misses the “tier one” status of being a Spurs beat reporter, shares the story behind his most accurate piece of transfer news, and talks about how his final exchange with Ange Postecoglou might have influenced his reporting. He also gives his verdict on Ange’s reaction to “Clowngate,” discusses Daniel Levy’s relationship with the media compared with fan protests, and considers whether Vinai Venkatesham will make a difference at Tottenham. Other listener questions cover which Spurs manager he most enjoyed interviewing and whether he regrets leaving the beat just as Thomas Frank arrived. Part one of this conversation looked back on Dan’s time covering Spurs; this second half is all about your questions and his candid answers. The show’s theme tune is Ghost Cat by Gillen.

In the first of a two-part special, Jack sits down with Dan Kilpatrick , now an editor at The Athletic , to look back on his years covering Tottenham as a beat journalist. They discuss how the job changed as Spurs grew into a modern superclub, how the wider football media landscape evolved over the past decade, and what it was like reporting during the Mauricio Pochettino era — including an anecdote about a chance encounter with Poch and Jesús Pérez in Russia . Dan also reflects on Daniel Levy’s deep involvement in all areas of the club , whether it’s ultimately damaging, and shares his impressions of both Ange Postecoglou and Thomas Frank . Part two — where Dan answers your questions — will be out soon. For now, enjoy part one of this deep dive into Tottenham Hotspur with one of the most familiar faces in Spurs journalism.

Jack is joined by Phil in the wake of Tottenham’s 2-0 win over Manchester City to reflect on why things feel so different under Thomas Frank. With the era of Lloris, Kane and Son now firmly in the past, it feels like the stage is set for a new generation of players to become the figureheads of the club. We dig into the brilliance of Pape Matar Sarr, his outstanding start to the season and why he still isn’t quite being spoken of as one of the very best young midfielders in Europe. Joao Palhinha’s arrival has brought a new level of steel to Spurs’ midfield, giving freedom to the likes of Sarr and Bentancur to flourish. There’s also chat about the Eberechi Eze deal that never was, whether his allegiance to Arsenal softens the blow, and the continuing frustration around how Spurs operate in the market. A weekend of positives, but as ever, still plenty to chew over. The show’s theme is Ghost Cat by Gillen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Spurs went to the Etihad and came away with yet another win over Manchester City. Brennan Johnson opened the scoring before João Palhinha capitalised on a mistake to double the lead and secure another clean sheet. Jack talks through a huge afternoon for Tottenham, with Mohammed Kudus once again producing a memorable performance in attack and Pape Matar Sarr running the midfield in a man of the match display that continues his outstanding start to the season. Palhinha’s arrival has already transformed the side, adding the kind of defensive steel that allows those around him to flourish, while Thomas Frank’s tactical set up frustrated City and gave Spurs the platform to strike. It is another big step forward for Tottenham in the Premier League and a result that could have a lasting impact on the season ahead. Learn more about your ad choices.

Jack is joined by John (aka Lilywhite Rose) for this week’s Thursday Q&A, where the frustration of the collapsed Eberechi Eze deal takes centre stage. With Arsenal swooping in at the last minute, was this another case of Daniel Levy’s drawn-out negotiations costing Tottenham, or is there any comfort to be found in missing out? John brings his expertise on Spurs’ academy to the table, discussing the progress of Alfie Devine and Jamie Donley and whether either could have played a role in solving Tottenham’s need for a number 10. Listener questions also spark debate on Luca Williams Barnett, Arsenal’s Max Dowman, and the best young talent John has ever seen come through the Spurs academy.

Jack is joined by Lara to look back on Tottenham’s opening day win over Burnley, where Richarlison lit up Thomas Frank’s debut with two superb goals including an outrageous bicycle kick. Mohammed Kudus was equally impressive, pulling the strings in midfield and combining brilliantly with Richarlison to give Spurs a new attacking edge. We also dive into the latest twists in the transfer market, from the rollercoaster pursuit of Eberechi Eze with Oliver Glasner insisting he is staying put at Palace, to Spurs’ ambitious chase for Savinho at Manchester City.

Spurs returned to Premier League action under new manager Thomas Frank in stunning fashion with a 3-0 victory over Burnley. Scott Parker’s side were praised for their defensive solidity in the Championship, but the Premier League is a different story. Tottenham are now without Harry Kane and Son Heung-min, yet may already have a couple of new heroes in their ranks. Mohammed Kudus and Richarlison combined brilliantly for two impressive goals, including an absolute worldie from the Brazilian, before Brennan Johnson sealed the win with a neat finish.

They also discuss what Eberechi Eze could bring if Spurs complete the signing. James answers listener questions on his career, Danny Kelly’s cooking and whether he has ever made an Arsenal fan cry.

With the new season fast approaching, we take a hard look at Tottenham’s squad depth and where the concerns really lie. Is there any point still getting angry about the way Daniel Levy and ENIC run the club, or is this simply who they are? We also talk through Harry Kane’s “exclusive” interview on the Spurs website and why it was such an odd move from the club, even if it didn’t exactly wind us up. We also look ahead to the UEFA Super Cup final against PSG and why there’s every reason to stay hopeful, even with the odds stacked against us.

Opening with that emotional farewell from Sonny, what does it mean for the team, the dressing room, and Spurs’ identity moving forward? Has some of the star factor gone with him? Then it’s onto the transfer window. Another frustrating summer? Maybe. But is it just the usual Levy cycle or are we all guilty of forgetting just how much has already been spent? Plus, Flav fields your questions, including: – Would he rather swim with sharks or eat a fermented one? – Which Sonny goal does he wish he’d scored and how would he celebrate it? – And... has he finally sent out those Patreon badges?

After nearly a decade of brilliance, Son Heung-min has officially announced his departure from Tottenham Hotspur. Jack is joined by Gavin to pay tribute to one of the greatest players to ever wear the lilywhite shirt. We revisit the emotional farewell in Seoul and reflect on the unforgettable highs of his Spurs career. From that solo goal against Burnley and running past half the Chelsea team at Wembley, to lifting the Europa League as club captain. We also dive into his iconic partnership with Harry Kane, the records they smashed, and the legacy they leave behind. Plus, we read your favourite Son memories and stories, an overwhelming outpouring of love for one of the all-time Spurs greats. Cheers Son's crying - I'm crying - you're crying.

These episodes are all about those matches that live on in the collective psyche of THFC.

In Episode 1, friend of the show Tom Foins joins Jack to relive that unforgettable night in 2010 when Gareth Bale absolutely ruined Maicon, Spurs were in dreamland playing one of Europe's biggest off the park.

Tottenham Hotspur were hammered 5-1 at Anfield as Liverpool sealed the Premier League title in emphatic style. Despite taking an early lead through a scrappy Dominic Solanke goal, Spurs were soon overwhelmed by strikes from Luis Díaz, Alexis Mac Allister, Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah, and an unfortunate own goal from Destiny Udogie. It might have been a dead rubber for Spurs, but it still stings.

The chat inevitably drifts towards you know who – would bringing Pochettino back be the right move or just another example of the club clinging to the past? There’s also a look at how Spurs are treated differently to Arsenal in the media, and why those double standards seem to persist.

Tottenham have just lost 4-2 to Wolves, their 17th league defeat of the season and now sit 15th in the Premier League table. In any other season, this kind of form could potentially have them in the thick of a relegation battle. Shocking stuff for a club of this size, and for a side that’s never been relegated from the Premier League. Jack is joined by screenwriter Charlie Brafman to make sense of the chaos. A long-time admirer of Ange Postecoglou, Charlie offers his take on why we should have some compassion when discussing the Aussie manager and whether there's any world he could stay or if the rot has gone too deep.

Jack welcomes Phil back to the show to go over last night again, and to look ahead at where Spurs go from here. Ange Postecoglou has once again found himself in a weird spot with the fans – or maybe not, depending on who you ask. He’s claiming there’s no issue, but his comments in today’s pre-Southampton presser suggest otherwise, with talk of falling out of love with football because of VAR. Is this really the message we want to be hearing from the manager? Is something deeper going on? We get into the increasingly toxic atmosphere around the club, what it says about the direction we're heading in, and whether it's time to start moving on from the “NameBall” era of managers. Is it too much to ask for someone who’s simply flexible and willing to work with the players at his disposal? Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/ruletheroost . Hosted on Acast.

Jack welcomes a man who needs no introduction (Ricky from Lads Anonymous/The Fighting Cock) back to the podcast to delve fully into international break listlessness. Were we expecting Ange to be sacked? Should he be sacked? What are our and your thoughts on Djed Spence's appearance on Rio's podcast? Cristian Romero and selling at the 'right time'...and while we're on centre backs, we say goodbye to Jan and Toby. Buckle up, it's a longy but it's a goody.

With no Premier League action to stress over, Jack is joined by presenter, producer and Bring Your Own Blockbuster co-host Ben Haines for a special Rule the Roost x BYOB crossover episode. The pair look back on a heartwarming afternoon at White Hart Lane as Spurs legends rolled back the years against AC Milan. There’s plenty of nostalgia, a few tears, and even a car park run-in with Ledley King that Ben won’t forget in a hurry. Then, in true BYOB style, Jack and Ben dive into the cinematic ‘classic’ Goal! The Dream Begins (2005). Why did they cast someone who can’t play football to star in a football film? That soundtrack. That dodgy nurse's outfit. And, was the game better back then, or are we just all a bit too online now?

Tottenham’s season is reaching a crucial point, and Jack is joined by Bardi from The Extra Inch to break it all down. Spurs battled back to salvage a 2-2 draw against Bournemouth at the weekend, why did it feel so underwhelming - and did it put you off Iraola? We also discuss Kevin Danso’s injury and what it says about the balance between Ange Postecoglou’s high-intensity methods and Tottenham’s ongoing fitness concerns. With a make-or-break second leg against AZ Alkmaar looming, we look ahead to a huge night in Europe. Can Spurs turn it around, and what’s at stake for Postecoglou if they don’t? Plus, we assess the growing debate over Spurs’ injury record and whether there’s a deeper issue at play.

In Tottenham's first real test of pre-season, Ange Postecoglou's men didn't look great. Despite a rocket from Pedro Porro and a bright second half from Lucas Bergvall, Spurs looked uninspiring at best. Defensively suspect, and lacking any real invention or focal point upfront. It may only be a friendly, but it's still somewhat concerning. Let's hope they get some business done soon. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/ruletheroost . Hosted on Acast.

It was a weird evening for Spurs fans, as they knew that a result for Tottenham would all but hand the title to Arsenal. It was a no win situation, and it has caused countless arguments over the past couple of days. Spurs showed that they could be flexible and play well, but ultimately, it just wasn't enough.

Jack and Phil pick over the bones of the weekend's footballing action, starting with Aston Villa strengthening their grip on fourth place...and despite what this means for Tottenham's Champions League hopes, it takes Arsenal further away from winning the league, and, so, the lads can't help but celebrate. Speaking of celebrations, Tottenham's Women's team is also in the FA Cup final for the first time in their history, so Wembley awaits. Finally, the pair to move onto the men's debacle at St James Park, in what is annoyingly now becoming our annual battering in Newcastle. Is Ange right to write-off the top four, is this having an impact on the players? What is going wrong for Spurs at the moment with their indifferent form? James Maddison, Destiny Udogie, Yves Bissouma, all have put in questionable performances of late. Timo Werner, who once represented great value for money, is now also looking like he could be an awful move for the club. Plenty to discuss, enjoy!

Jack reacts to Tottenham's exit from the FA Cup at the hands of Manchester City in what was a pretty weird game. Felt like Spurs never really got going, which is unlike your typical Ange Postecoglou team performance. Manchester City are of course the treble winners and are managed by Pep Guardiola, but is it wrong to have hoped that we might have given a little bit more to this one? Several players just weren't at it, and despite holding them off for long periods, we didn't create enough of our own opportunities. Timo Werner was crying out for service, but Dejan Kulusevski just couldn't get the ball to him. The biggest talking point has to be City's winner, which was a clear foul on the goalkeeper Vicario.

Do they deserve more recognition? The conversation then pivots to Giovani Lo Celso, who's making waves after being on the fringes for a while. Could he be on his way to becoming a regular starter and causing a selection headache for manager Ange Postecoglou?

This week, we have a special guest, Sky Sports' Jamie Weir, joining us to dissect all things Spurs. Buckle up because we have a lot to get through! In this episode, we're breaking down Tottenham's recent victory against Crystal Palace. The lads have made a promising start to the season, currently perched at the top of the Premier League. But the burning question is, can they maintain this early form, or will their lack of squad depth come back to haunt them? We're diving straight into the squad depth issue, particularly the gap between players like Destiny Udogie and Ben Davies. But amidst the concerns, we'll explore whether Ange Postecoglou has built a system that can handle a few changes and avoid catastrophe. One of the standout features of this season has been Son Heung-min's performance as the captain. He's not only leading by example but also fostering a great atmosphere in the dressing room. We'll discuss what makes him such a great leader. Looking ahead, we have a crucial clash against Chelsea to preview. And there's the return of a familiar face to White Hart Lane in Mauricio Pochettino. Should the fans give him a warm welcome or express their frustrations? Lastly, we can't forget about Harry Kane, who's tearing it up at Bayern Munich. We'll talk about his incredible form and why Spurs supporters should be pleased for their former talisman.

Dan provides insights into how the decision was made, and the potential impact on Tottenham's season. They also touch on possible candidates to replace Conte as the next manager, and what the future may hold for the club. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/ruletheroost . Hosted on Acast.

Jack is delighted to be joined by Sky Sports' Jamie Weir, fresh from a visit to Harry Redknapp's house. They mull over that now infamous press conference from Antonio Conte, and ponder where the club goes from here.

Ritch Grove is back, and he's angry...or, at least he was. Now that the dust has settled on that EXPLOSIVE Antonio Conte press conference, does he feel any differently about about what was said? If Spurs do go on to sack him, where do we go from here? With Daniel Levy still in charge, will it be much of the same? Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/ruletheroost . Hosted on Acast.

Jack dives straight in to reflect upon Tottenham's 1-1 draw with West Ham. It's five games unbeaten so far this season for Spurs, but this one felt pretty disappointing. The lack of urgency on display from Spurs so far this season feels like it's starting to catch up with us a bit. What's going wrong? Is it time to drop Son? Should Kane stop playing the number 10 role so often and just get on the end of some of Perisic's delightful crosses? Whatever the case, we've gone away to Stamford Bridge and to West Ham and not lost either, there's something to be positive about. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/ruletheroost .

It wasn't pretty, but Spurs have another three points on the board. Forest pressed hard, but couldn't make their home advantage count as Harry Kane scored two goals for the visitors. Antonio Conte's tactics may start raising a few eyebrows if they carry on this way, but equally, if they're getting results, who are we to say? Another poor performance for Son, with Richarlison once again impressing in his cameo, will no doubt make for a very difficult decision for Conte in the coming weeks.

Fresh off the back of another Manchester mauling, we lament on the glimmers of hope in an otherwise horrible result at the Etihad. Is Soldado awful? Is Mason the second coming of Hoddle? Should we sack Pochettino already? All this will be answered, as well as a brief look ahead to our Europa League midweek fixture. We welcome back our old pal Taylor, one half of Taylor and Besty, to chat Newcastle, namely their money fixated owners that hire cockney wideboy managers, sell their best players and replace them with mediocre talent.

Discrimination in football is an ugly truth. Whether or not your choose to accept or acknowledge its existence, it’s there, and it needs to be tackled head on. Inclusion in football, no matter the club, is something we’re extremely passionate about, and rather than spend time discussing the matter between ourselves, we decided to discuss the matter openly with some special guests. Branching out and using a professional recording studio to conduct the interviews, we spoke to the following people: Troy Townsend - Education and Development Manager for KickItOut. Louise Englefield - Director of Football Vs Homophobia. Anwar Uddin - Diversity and Campaigns Manager for the Football Supporters’ Federation. Simon Kuper - Financial Times Journalist and author. We asked no leading questions, and we advised our guests of no prior agendas. What you hear is exactly what we asked, unedited and honest. Thank you to each and every one of them for taking part. Together, we can make football a more welcome environment for everybody involved. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/ruletheroost . Hosted on Acast.

Eriksen is good, Sandro is funny and Sherwood is still a laughing stock. We discuss who might come in to manage the side this summer, and take in to account recent developments at Manchester United. Because he's done the past two opposition interviews alone, Bains does a Lamela and doesn't show for this weeks, leaving Jack to discuss footballing giants Stoke City alone, so I think that makes us even.

Tunnel slouching, Vertonghen and Lloris leaving, Barça ban effects on Tottenham all looked at also. Sunderland soon, so we had Gareth from Wise Men Say back on, who given where his club are and how they're playing, was probably more downcast and depressed then we are, which is really fucking saying something.

Dnipro comeback, Cardiff win, Soldado goal - all summed up in the most Rule The Roost fashion possible. We then talked Chelsea with Joe and Freddie, who are both fans of that particular club. We talked about their players, manager and likelihood to win the league. We didn't question their morals as much though, sadly. Freddie gave us a painful story about Jermaine Jenas stealing his university girlfriend with 50" televisions and we mention a manager of a certain formerly Woolwich based club in the same sentence as Operation Yew Tree more times than is advisable. We had a breakdown about modern football to ourselves, discussed the Karl Pilkington iTunes review, talked about Jack's 30th birthday and the message he left on Raj's answerphone at 3am one morning pretending to be irate Northerner 'Barry' - althewhile forgetting about the miracle of caller ID.Long and enjoyable this (that's what she said).

We didn’t record a Hull podcast, mainly because we didn’t want to. We’re not even sorry, to be honest. We’re back now though, brushing over two bad results in record time, literally doing our best not to delve in to the games past reading the scores out. Joined again by friends of the show and our favourite Everton fans going, Si and Bally from the NSNO Podcast are back on the line helping us discuss everything we possibly can, apart from the football. The usual tactical nonsense and higher-brow discussion wasn’t even attempted, as topics ranged from the sublime to the salacious. Expect in-jokes from the previous show and plenty of what ‘lads’ would call ‘banter’. Jack has a new tehTrunk video out, so watch it on YouTube.

In our second episode in as many days, and quite possibly, although not entirely confirmed, last before the New Year, we responded to some Redknapp talk from feedback received regarding the Villas-Boas special. We also had a word on Sherwood and his first public interview since the announcement was made yesterday. There was also a short preview of West-Ham in the cup. Moving back to some form of Rule The Roost normality though, we spoke to Southampton fan and owner of the SaintsWeb, Steve Grant. Brushing off any and all jealousy toward their flourishing season and apparent stability, we asked about their youth system, Marcelo Bielsa inspired coach and how scared they were of us now given the circumstances.

Tactics, team selection, substitutions and more, we did our best to answer the various questions the season thus far has thrown at us. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/ruletheroost .

With the transfer window blissfully closed and international football causing an unwelcome break in premier league action, host Jack and editor Raj, alongside SpursStatMan's own 'Head Of Opposition Scouting' Rob Brown, took the opportunity to have a closer look at our own club. A frighteningly busy window has caused not only concerns over our ability to adapt and gel going forwards, but also the suitability of our current tactical outlook. Giving the new boys a once over, saying goodbye to Bale and pushing our tactical nous to its limits, we did our best to second guess the rest of the season.

Whilst also taking an extremely brief look back at wins against Dinamo Tblisi and Swansea, the focus was heavily on the Emirates. Unlike most encounters between fans of both sides, expect intelligent debate, probing questions about each others club and plenty of well aimed digs wherever possible.
