Chapter 1: What thrilling moments did the footballers provide this weekend?
Be happy when the sun shines, everybody. Welcome to the Football Ramble. Drama in the relegation battle and madness at Rochdale. It's Monday, 27th of April. I'm Marcus Speller. I'm Luke Moore. And I'm Venetian Apparajah. And just like that, the weekend was over. But don't worry, another one is on the horizon.
We have got a magnificent Monday for you here at the Football Ramble, and it's all down to those professional footballers that did their stuff on the weekend. Thanks to them. Once again, we thank them. Without them, this show wouldn't be half as good.
We should clap for them, really. Bang your saucepans. I'll tell you what, everyone listen to the ramble. Tonight at 8 o'clock, we'll get out onto the doorstep. There you go. We'll bang our saucepans for the professional footballers. Yes. Maybe 7.55 so you don't miss United-Brentford. Oh yeah, true, yeah. Because they deserve the claps as well.
They do. They'll get the claps at the end of the game.
So two sets of claps.
8pm on a Monday and then about 10pm also on a Monday I think we should give footballers all the extra money that the nurses earn because they do their shift and they give the money to the footballers I think they should be given nurses they get a nurse each and if you're really good you score the winner you get a consultant surgeon not in the Samir Nasri way when he did that tweet but just get to do what you want
We're not footballers. Don't tip nurses, tip footballers. Yeah, absolutely. Right, first of all, a reminder that we are hosting a huge watch-along for England's first World Cup game. We're taking over Forty Foot Brewery in North London on Wednesday, 17th of June for England versus Croatia. There will be massive outdoor screens. There'll be indoor screens as well, I'm led to believe.
Exclusive merch, top-tier food, live pre-match chat, and our brand-new World Cup lager, My Fizzy Aunt. It'll be pouring all night tonight. hopefully down most of your throats, with your consent. No, dent this chair.

Chapter 2: What are the concerns surrounding Tottenham's Premier League future?
Gaza will be there.

So just don't delay, because we'd love to see you there. We'll also have our own separate Ramble resale site. Yes. For just half a minute. Yeah, exactly. You can come and watch.
Just outside Blackhorse Road tube station, I will be touting. Are you coming, Vish, by the way? I am coming, yeah. Is he? He didn't come to the photo shoot, did he? He didn't need to. He's a man for the main event.
It's day one of the Oval Test, so I'll be coming from South London to North London. So you'll be on the source all day? I'm working. Well, I'll ask the question. Half the day. LAUGHTER Just ask the question.
I don't want to hear all that shit. Exactly. Bugger off.
All right. It's going to be great, though. And we'll do a little ramble before the game.
Whatever you want, a sing-along, a ramble-along, we'll do it. Yeah, not a sing-along. Strip along the lot.

Chapter 3: What surprising incidents occurred during the FA Cup semi-finals?
Did you...
I'll do Sir Jimmy Savile as well if you want that oh yeah you're going to take it there what a great Monday morning Rory's fuming look at him he's rubbing his eyes he can't believe what's happening people are going did you not see what happened on the Premier League there was FA Cup semi-finals get on with it let's do it well we will let's start with the Premier League
relegation Nottingham Forest got us underway in terms of relegation run-ins and battles and so on on Friday night and my goodness I don't think anybody saw that coming 5-0 they beat Sunderland at the Stadium of Light Sunderland who have been so good defensively all season shipped five goals at home when Sunderland themselves have like a number of other teams
hopes for European football next season. For Forest to turn up and bash them 5-0. Four goals in 21st half minutes. I mean, it was Brentford versus Ten Hag's Manchester United-esque, Luke Moore. It was quite something.
Nice reference. Man United thinking, how are we getting straight out of that?
Just lest we forget for tonight's game.
Two marriages ago. You're going that far back. It was an incredible performance in the first half, particularly from Forrest. He started with a pretty fortunate goal. A goal I hadn't ever really seen before.
Yeah.
Where he tries to head the ball back across the goal. It comes off of Trae Hoom's head, bless him, and goes into the far corner. Lovely. But I didn't really recover from that. No. And, you know, Forrest were kind of marginal favourites going into this game, which surprised me a little bit.

Chapter 4: How did York City remind us of the love for football?
I can understand that not being given. But as you say, there is motion towards the ball. I understand he didn't mean to do it, but he has done it.
Chapter 5: What were the highlights from the Premier League matches this weekend?
And it is a massively affected the play.
I also like the idea that reading between the lines of that reason given for not giving the hand ball is the idea that grappling's always been part of football. It's bullshit. I looked up the laws of the game and not one mention of grapple or grappling anywhere in the documents. Don't give me that fucking bollocks. What about gripple? No, I didn't check for gripple.
So I wouldn't be surprised if when they were coming up... It's the lowest of our ticket prices, isn't it?
is this about Liverpool always playing a midday on Saturday can't enforce that surely what that reads to me is someone put well we can't put grabbing because then that'll be a foul thesaurus grabbing grappling that'll do people will forget about that he's turned to be upside down he can't honestly you just can't say that the way the game is officiated that we've seen every single week this season that's not a handball it's bizarre was David Moyes when he spoke about this post-match thinking I don't want to get a fine here
He was very reasonable.
I mean, that was absolutely, it's gone, it's gone, um, essentially for us. Yeah. Or no, sorry. No, against them. Sorry, yeah. He did use the management stamp, so it depends which hat he's got on. Current job. Yeah, it's gone against us and it doesn't matter now. We're not getting relegated. Who gives a shit?
Yeah, probably. Well, the actual quote was, I'm amazed that that's not been given as a penalty kick. It would have been harsh on them, but I'm amazed.
It's not going to be harsh. It wouldn't have been harsh on them.
It's a bananas decision. Now, some might argue, though, that Everton got away with one when Jordan Pickford clattered into, was it Castellanos, I think it was, earlier in the game.
