Football Is Fixable, Alright?! ·

2026/09/28

This week Dan and James take aim at one of football’s biggest governing bodies: UEFA. And, naturally, we’re asking the important question — is UEFA secretly an evil organisation plotting the downfall of football?From cramming the football calendar with increasingly glorified international friendlies to constantly finding new ways to give the richest clubs even more money, Dan and James investigate whether UEFA is actually making football better… or making it harder to enjoy. Is there simply too

This week Dan and James head to Italy to fix Serie A — once the undisputed home of some of the best footballers, biggest clubs and most iconic teams in world football.So what went wrong? How did Italy go from having the league everyone wanted to watch to playing catch-up with the Premier League and Europe’s other big leagues? And, more importantly, what needs to change to get Serie A back where it belongs? From outdated stadiums and falling behind financially to an increasingly worrying reliance

2026/09/14

This week, Dan and James tackle one of English football’s BIGGEST debates: was the Premier League really better back in the day, or are we just looking through nostalgia-tinted glasses?We head back to the ’90s and early 2000s to ask: was that truly ‘peak Premier League’ — better football, classier players and iconic kits — or is the modern game more competitive than ever?

4. Fixing… Premature Predictulations

Football Is Fixable, Alright?! ·

2026/09/07

The season has barely started, but apparently we already know everything. Dan and James take aim at the football world’s obsession with premature predictions — who’s winning the league, who’s getting top four, who’s getting relegated and, somehow, which managers are getting sacked before September is even over. A few games in and everyone suddenly thinks they’re Mystic Meg. But how useful are these predictions when there are still 30-odd games to play? It’s time to fix football’s obsession with

Football Is Fixable, Alright?! ·

2026/08/31

The transfer market has officially lost the plot.Dan and James try to make sense of the endless rumours, “exclusive” updates and increasingly creative versions of the truth. With journalists, agents, clubs and fans all playing their part in spreading stories, it’s at risk of becoming more dramatic than the football itself! Is transfer news journalism, guesswork, or just everyone making stuff up and hoping nobody notices? It’s time to fix the transfer market madness. Alright?! #premierleague

Football Is Fixable, Alright?! ·

2026/08/24

This week, Dan and James take a look at the FA’s unprecedented number of new laws, guidelines and generally confusing attempts to fix football. From more VAR to substitutions, time-wasting to whatever else has been deemed a crisis. Are these changes actually making the game better — or are they just making football harder to understand and referee?It’s time to fix the rules that are supposedly fixing the rules, alright?! #football #premierleague #var #fa Learn more about your ad choices.

2026/08/17

Season 4 is here, and with Ces nowhere to be seen, Dan and James have wasted no time seizing complete control. Whether Ces’ absence turns out to be a blessing or a disaster remains to be seen, but for now the new regime is getting straight to work by trying to fix football’s most shameless players. From badge-kissing heroes to agents leaking transfer rumours and players suddenly discovering they’ve “always dreamed” of playing somewhere else, we’re asking whether there’s anything wrong with being a

The World Cup is up and running, and we’re already asking the big questions. Why is diving still not punished? When did attending a match become so expensive?

2026/06/08

The World Cup is finally upon us! Yet the usual fever that spreads throughout the world feels a little more subdued this year. Could there be an issue with the host nations? Maybe pre-tournament fatigue from the expected number of games, as well as late kick-off times? Or perhaps problems around FIFA themselves and their money-driven methods to make the game more commercially lucrative. The boys tackle the final boss of FIFA in a FIF,A?! vs FIFA match, and sort out the biggest tournament in human

37. Fixing... Tuchel's England Squad

Football Is Fixable, Alright?! ·

2026/05/28

With the announcement of England's World Cup squad, the boys tackle the topic about Tuchel's choices. Are his decisions deluded, or is he being bold? Is he petrified from the pressure, or is he unfazed by the fans? Coming from a country that's won four World Cups, will this new outlook be what England finally needs to get over the line? We've seen bigger bottlers in the past go on and win the premierleague, so maybe we do have a chance afterall... alright?!#worldcup #england #fifa

2026/05/18

Keeper crowding has become a staple in every corner kick this season. It's become so common that referees are becoming seemingly numb to the many rugby tackles, shirt pulling and shoving that happen every single time. While chaos may be a ladder to some, it is time for the boys to tackle this topic and get rid of madness in the box, once and for all... alright?!Learn more about your ad choices.

2026/05/06

I'm sure we're all a bit sick of the age old argument of "too many games", but we've decided to reopen the debate! Since the last few months, James changed his views on players playing too many games, and this definitely definitely has nothing to do with Arsenal being involved in multiple tournaments and having to play more games now! Can he change Ces's mind? Probably not, but he can try... alright?!#premierleague #ucl #cl #arsenal #psg #mancity #manchesterunited Learn more about your ad

34. Fixing... Incorrect Player of the Year Nominations

Football Is Fixable, Alright?! ·

2026/04/28

Isn't it strange how football seems insistent on rewarding individuals, rather than focusing on the collective team? Considering it's a team sport, why are there so many individual accolades? And don't get us started on the people you all believe should win Player of the Year! The boys this week use stats, achievements and football science to give the true answer of who should win. You may have been wrong before, but now you've been corrected... alright?! #premierleague #Arsenal #manchesterunited

Who do you support? Do you support them through thick and thin, during the good times and the bad? Are you open about being a glory hunter? Is your local club important to you?

2026/04/11

In this week’s Easter special, the boys tackle one of football’s most overlooked issues… Christians. Have you noticed how players called Christian seem to suffer from some of football’s biggest issues? From experiencing inconsistent performances to having to live up to impossible expectations, Dan and James ask whether it’s coincidence… or something deeper… Redemption is a big ask, but miracles can happen, alright?!

31. Fixing... Cheating Chelsea

Football Is Fixable, Alright?! ·

2026/03/30

How did they get away with it?? Chelsea were fined a measly £10.75m for financial doping during an incredibly successful period for them, and made a lot of money in that time, but does the punishment fit the crime? The boys take a punt at fixing the whole punishment system, and find ways to deter other clubs from doing this in future. It's unlikely to fix Man City in time, but we can still try... alright?!Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

2026/03/16

We're here again, having to fix tribalism and hatred within football. In this week's episode, Dan speaks with rationality as he explains how people can bring their own violent thoughts to the game and bring the sport into disrepute - Ces argues the case that most football fans are wrong to hate their rivals to the point of wishing relegation on them - and James claims that he would pick Viktor Gyokeres and Bukayo Saka over Prime Messi and R9. That sounds ridiculous, but you still have to listen to

Football Is Fixable, Alright?! ·

2026/03/02

Is there really an Arsenal agenda? Surely no one other than Spurs fans hates the Gunners? What's so hateful about the insufferably privileged fanbase? What's so grating about Arteta's obscure lightbulb speech and introducing Win the dog? Why would anyone be opposed to a club that endlessly praises themselves for winning a little gold trophy that nobody else cares about?
