With the start of the football season just 9 days away, and Ken’s return imminent, we have a special treat as we play our chat about the biggest arrival to English football in this summer’s transfer window, Erling Haaland, with his fellow country-man Lars Sivertsen, friend of the show John Brewin, and of course our Ken. It’s from our very enjoyable packed out live show in the EartH Theatre in London a few weeks back.

England are through to the last four of the Euros thanks to a thrilling quarter-final win over Spain after extra-time last night. Katie Whyatt of the Athletic tells us about how excited the nation is getting, and also why a lack of diversity in the squad and in the first team could make that positive impact more difficult to harness.

There’s also Ken-adone, Grand Designs in Abu Dhabi, an Up For The Match bombshell, and Frances Murphy’s TV Guide for the sporting weekend.
