Episode 2626: Zippin Up My Boots, Goin Back To My Roots
Roy Hodgson’s triumphant return to Crystal Palace seemed like the comeback story of the season – until now. Leeds, despairing of progressive 21st century project-football, appear poised to go back to basics with Sam Allardyce… and we cannot wait.
Jon Mackenzie of Tifo Football joins us to chart Leeds’ strange journey from Bielsa to Big Sam.
We also talk about the TV punditry legacy of Graeme Souness and why, despite disagreeing with nearly everything he said, Ken simply could not stop watching him.
Plus there’s Klopp’s hamstring, IShowSpeed and the news that our Euro 88 t-shirts are back in stock at secondcaptains.com/shop
