Episode notes

Lee Carsley isn’t going quietly into the night. He made some very bold selections and he was rewarded with a resounding 3-0 victory over Greece. Jack Pitt Brooke was in Athens to watch that one.

I, on the other hand, was in my office watching Italy mostly dominate Belgium, though they should have won by more than their single goal. 

We’ve got some interesting scores from around the world, we’ve got news of Claudio Ranieri’s return to Roma and, most importantly, we’ve figured out which pub I went to in Barcelona in 2006. 

Did you know that The Athletic was giving Bluesky a go? Some of our best writers have moved there in the last 48 hours and I’ve cracked and followed them over. You can find me on the link below and hopefully the place will stay nice for at least a week or so.
