Our 2026 World Cup Predictions

Wait, are they the good guys? | 2026 FIFA World Cup

Egypt were on the cusp of an era-defining result, but then… Argentina gonna Argentina. Marcus, Luke and Vish try to work out if the good guys won that outrageous match out in ATL or if THE ENTIRE TOURNAMENT IS MASSIVELY RIGGED. In less goal-happy matters, Charlie lost out to the Chocolate Factory and so Switzerland’s quest to stink out the latter stages continues. Plus, some Mariah Carey-based mind games from Thomas Tuchel leave Tony Baz utterly bemused. Get your Football Ramble x Admiral kit here [https://footballramblestore.com/].

An "official" FIFA World Cup "flesh spot" | 2026 FIFA World Cup

Cristiano Ronaldo is out of the World Cup! A lesson to everybody that we all get to a point in life where we simply become nothing more than a nuisance to everyone around us. Cristiano, it's time to call it a day old son. Marcus, Vish & Pete are here to dwell on the downfall of one of football's all-time great players. Plus, the frankly baffling situation that arose from Folarin Balogun's red card against Bosnia, and an "official" FIFA World Cup "flesh spot" as Peter so eloquently put it.

England sink the Azteca | 2026 FIFA World Cup

The Azteca, one of football's mystic powers, has been conquered by Thomas Tuchel and his merry band of fine England men. Today, Marcus, Luke and Vish are here alongside their giddy aunts to relive last night’s action. It was a joyous evening where Jude Bellingham went full Zinedine Zidane and Harry Kane went full Darren Cann. Jump in, the water’s warm.

England vs Mexico Preview: Tuchel is activated | 2026 FIFA World Cup

After a long 40 years, England are heading back to the Azteca! Has anyone mentioned the altitude yet? On today’s preview show, Marcus and Vish are on hand to discuss team selection, game approach and little tumescence-assisting blue pills. Plus, we've got questions about the security measures around England’s hotel and gravitational time dilation in high-up places. Could Tommy Tuchel’s lads be facing a team of Benjamin Buttons?

Two-footed giraffes, The Greatest Showman and Norwegian brown cheese | 2026 FIFA World Cup

Paraguay put in a generational display of housery in their loss to France last night. It was one for real anarchists to enjoy (aka Pete Donaldson). Marcus, Vish and Pete wonder whether France should be concerned at all after this game. We also say goodbye to our old friend Jesse Marsch after Canada's loss to Morocco. Plus, Donny brings a very special gift for the lads to enjoy. Get your Football Ramble x Admiral kit here [https://footballramblestore.com/].
