Not sunny in Philadelphia | 2026 FIFA World Cup

Give spidercam citizenship | 2026 FIFA World Cup

ENGLAND ARE THROUGH TO THE LAST FOUR! For just the fourth time in England's history, we have a men's World Cup semi-final to rub our thighs about. Luke and Vish join Pete – who's come painted as a roundabout for the occasion – to unpack another rollercoaster night and another Jude Bellingham masterclass. Is he already England's greatest ever tournament player? We also discuss Thomas Tuchel's post-match interview, revoke Alexander Sørloth's Norwegian citizenship, and try to get our heads around Breel Embolo's monumental headloss as Switzerland fall to Argentina. Which neatly leads Pete onto some rather direct questions about the Falklands. Join us the morning after the night before!

At our Witsel’s end | 2026 FIFA World Cup

You’re fighting for your life in a World Cup knockout…. Spain are banging down the door and the pressure’s on… And you turn to unemployed 37-year-old, Axel Witsel. Yeah, cheers Belgium, thanks for coming. Pete, David and Luke bid farewell to our Belgian brethren after unfortunate injuries left them looking like Pete’s over 50’s vets side. We also roll out another Spanish inquisition and look ahead to tonight, where England face both i) a determined Norway side and ii) loads of alligators with sweaty bums. Plus, some actually genuinely breaking news from Pete about a new series in the works… Get your Football Ramble x Admiral kit here [https://footballramblestore.com/].

The Hartlepool Flymo Massacre | 2026 FIFA World Cup

France had a beautiful day as they eased past Morocco to reach the semi-finals of the World Cup. Can anyone stop them? Pete, Luke and David reflect on last night’s football on today’s Ramble. Elsewhere, Dan Burn has been doing some big, beautiful backflips. Could owning sheep help teams win the World Cup? Plus, Luke and David question whether Pete really owns a chainsaw.

Mailbag: Has the 48-team World Cup been a success? | 2026 FIFA World Cup

With dozens of hours of sleep lost to the sheer chaos of the World Cup schedule over the past month, perhaps a one night break from the football wasn’t the worst thing in the world. And now we’re well rested, it seems like the ideal time to reflect on some of the joy, heartbreak, and downright bafflement the World Cup has offered us so far. Marcus, Luke & Vish are here to answer your World Cup Mailbag questions ahead of the quarter-finals kicking off tonight!

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/].
