We’re back in your ears and though we were only gone for a short while, the football Gods (Newcastle United) have provided, in the squishy form of Steve Bruce. We react with a range of emotions while also casting an eye over Frank Lampard’s appointment at Stamford Bridge and looking at some of the more interesting transfers we’ve seen so far this summer.There’s also the usual stuff like Mark McGhee’s Bitcoin side hustle, Pascal Chimbonda’s summer adventures and Pete’s sumo wrestling related travel adventures. Join us on 5th August for the start of Football Ramble Daily. Keep an eye on our socials in the meantime for all the info— see you soon!Email us here: show@thefootballramble.com***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.
