The Totally Football Show with James Richardson

It’s an eclectic line-up for this episode of the Totally Football Show, with AC Jimbo joined in the pod by James Horncastle, Michael Cox, football finance expert Dr Tom Markham and former Monaco sporting director, Tor-Kristian Karlsen. We begin by wrapping up the events of the international break, with World Cup joy for Denmark, Sweden, Australia and Peru, tears for Ireland and Italy, and - perhaps most shockingly of all - signs of life from England in their two (goalless) glamour friendlies.After that post mortem, we turn our attention to the return of the Premier League, where the North London derby takes centre stage this weekend, hotly followed by the first meeting in a decade for José Mourinho and Rafa Benitez, and, just as excitingly, David Moyes’ debut in the West Ham dugout.Plus: a big Serie A preview; the World Crap; and a requiem for the fax machine.LIVE EVENT NEWS: • Just a fortnight to go until our London live show on Wednesday 29 November, and not that many tickets left, either.

On your all new Totally Football Show, AC Jimbo welcomes James Horncastle, Julien Laurens and Michael Cox to reflect on a goal-tastic opening round of games in the Champions League. City and Spurs recorded impressive results away to Feyenoord and home to Dortmund, but Liverpool’s familiar flaws at the back were all too apparent as they drew 2-2 at home to Sevilla. PSG meanwhile looked all-too-menacing as they crushed Celtic 5-0 in Glasgow.After our comprehensive Euro review, we turn our attention to the Premier League. This weekend sees Arsenal head to Chelsea, Man United take on Everton, and there’s also a rousing return to action for Mr Roy as his makes his bow as Crystal Palace’s latest saviour with the Eagles at home to Southampton.All of this, plus back-shaving, ufology and exciting news for the gloomy folks of the West Midlands.PARISH NOTICES:• we’re delighted to announce our first live show - Totally Football: Live is headed to Birmingham’s Glee club on Wednesday 8 November.
