On Route One today with @iainmacintosh.bsky.social... 🤔 Will West Ham fans ever be happy again? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Is Harry Kane given enough credit with @sebsb.bsky.social. ⚽️ Plus All the Premier League action in review. Audio only today, but normal video service resumes TOMORROW! 🎧 podfollow.com/1823912083

And if ghouling on other people's miserable football teams is what floats your boat, perhaps you'll like my new FM Classic series where I try not to break Everton. Episode 11 is here. trackrecordmedia.org/2025/09/22/f...

Sacking Graham Potter won't solve West Ham's problems. They need real change at the top of the club. That's leading ROUTE ONE today, but we've also got @sebsb.bsky.social on Harry Kane and the usual full Euro round-up. You can listen here: pod.fo/e/32f3b7

When The Athletic bought Muddy Knees Media, they bought everything it owned, including the drinks globe. It now sits in one of their meeting rooms and, alas, it sits empty. The funny thing about office drinks globes though is that they're fun to use at Xmas, but a cry for help at all other times.

Unfortunately there won't be a ROUTE ONE Youtube video today because we've got some sort of lurgie in the house (It can't be Covid again, I've already had it six times...) The pod will be released as normal, but I regret to inform you that the work experience boy is sleeping on the job again.

Guardiola playing low-possession sufferball in own penalty area = Mourinho’s ultimate triumph

This Sunderland side should not be in any sort of relegation conversation unless that conversation is about how Sunderland aren’t going to get relegated.

That is such a silly red card. Sunderland were in control of this one. Massive lifeline for a very flat Villa side.

You could say that about the other team

I remain astonished that Chelsea can spend over a billion quid and still not have a top class goalkeeper.

I’ll repost this now as I fear it will be completely out of date at some point tomorrow when they hire Nuno.

At the risk of tempting fate, that little window of a transitioning Liverpool being a bit vulnerable at the back really has closed now, hasn’t it?

That is an absolutely ridiculous goal. He’s a defensive midfielder, for the love of God, he has no right to do something like that.

A Merseyside manager has been sacked halfway through the first season of FM Classic on Track Record, but which one, Chris Kamara? Episode Ten is here and frankly I'm astonished it's lasted so long. trackrecordmedia.org/2025/09/19/f...

If you've never listened to ROUTE ONE, today's a fine day to start.

On today’s episode of Route One with @iainmacintosh.bsky.social we asked whether Amorim is DOOMED at Man United. Adrian Clarke joined us to build up to Arsenal vs Manchester City. ALL the build up to the Merseyside Derby. 🔗 www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNGf... 🔗 podfollow.com/1823912083

On Route One today with @iainmacintosh.bsky.social 🔴 We asked @knoxharrington.bsky.social if Everton can stop the time bandit Reds on Saturday. 🦢 Looked back on a tough night in South Wales for Big Ange. 🍿 Build up to Newcastle vs Barca. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_cX... podfollow.com/1823912083

We're looking ahead to the Merseyside derby on ROUTE ONE today because I don't know how Everton will cope with Liverpool and their late goals. @knoxharrington.bsky.social joins me for a chat. Listen: pod.fo/e/32cfe7 Watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_cX...

Yesterday, I played out a routine 2-0 win at Middlesbrough for my FM Classic Everton story, went to make a cup of tea and returned to find that it had crashed. Today I replayed the fixture. Same team, same tactics. And this happened... Gutted. trackrecordmedia.org/2025/09/15/f...

Got a couple of mins before kick off? Check out @dannykellywords.bsky.social in uncompromising form on VAR and why it just isn't working. trackrecordmedia.org/2025/09/17/i...

The new ROUTE ONE is here and we're all very excited about this Jose Mourinho to Benfica story. @nickmiller79.bsky.social tells us more. And we've got all the news you can imagine. And some you can't. LISTEN: pod.fo/e/32c539 WATCH: www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6nq...

🆕 Here is the first episode of our new video series 'NOT NOW BILBO'. ⬇️ The question is, who is @iainmacintosh.bsky.social talking to? Let us know in the comments (wrong answers only).

The new ROUTE ONE is over here, talking Champions League and other such stuff with help from @tomwfootball.bsky.social and @jackpittbrooke.bsky.social Listen here: pod.fo/e/32b9ec Watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gumk... This was all filmed while my dog, Bilbo Waggins, wandered around on set

What are West Ham? I don't get the long term plan over there. I'm not sure I get the short term plan either. What's going on? trackrecordmedia.org/2025/09/16/w...

Can anyone stop PSG in the Champions League? We've got @tomwfootball.bsky.social on ROUTE ONE today discussing that. We've also got @jackpittbrooke.bsky.social weighing up Spurs' chances of survival. pod.fo/e/32b9ec

Just found the new work experience boy sleeping on the job. Gen Z, man. So entitled.

There has been concern in the comments section that the FM Classic Everton story has been, thus far, too successful. Well, here's some good news... trackrecordmedia.org/2025/09/15/f...

The new ROUTE ONE is asking @mixedknuts.bsky.social if there's anything in Amorim's claim that Utd are improving and Chris Jacks if Rangers can recover... Listen: pod.fo/e/32afb7 Watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zO0l... Read: trackrecordmedia.org/2025/09/15/s...

Thanks for the show, guys! I was born and raised in the Fergie time and, poor me, has to stick to this crazy, deflating-my-damned-soul-club. While I read everywhere dooming news about Amorims eleven, it was nice to hear a few not-all-is-rubbish-facts in your show! Thanks for that!

If anyone heard any erroneous information about the Europa League on the podcast today, congratulations! That was a test to see if you were listening and you've won 100 imaginary points. (All fixed now, all my fault and I am an idiot)

Ruben Amorim says Man Utd are getting better. Has he actually got a point? We asked @mixedknuts.bsky.social what he thinks. Can Russell Martin turn Rangers around after another terrible weekend? Rangers Review's Chris Jack isn’t convinced. And nor are we. Listen here: pod.fo/e/32afb7

Route One’s attempts to find a younger audience on TikTok derailed by my insistence on a John Charles reference in today’s show.

Can Ruben Amorim outwit Pep on Sunday? We're speaking to @andymitten.bsky.social on the big weekend preview. We've also got @sebsb.bsky.social on the Bundesliga and all the other stuff, inclduing my utter disgust at an 8pm Saturday kick-off.... pod.fo/e/329942

Here’s your big @routeonepod.bsky.social weekend preview. We’ve got @andymitten.bsky.social on Man Utd, @sebsb.bsky.social on Germany and everything else you need ahead of massive weekend of football. pod.fo/e/329942

Arsenal <should> beat Nottingham Forest, right? Why does it feel like such a banana skin? @adrianjclarke.bsky.social joins me on ROUTE ONE to discuss. And what sort of state are Southampton in ahead of the derby clash with Portsmouth? George Rees-Julian is in too pod.fo/e/328e4a

I would be fine with 60 minute games as long as the clock stopped when the ball went out of play.

Absolutely delighted to welcome @afhstewart.bsky.social to Track Record with this beautiful love letter to the original Command & Conquer. trackrecordmedia.org/2025/09/11/d...

The new ROUTE ONE is live and the video version has just pipped the audio version to the finish line, so you can watch here, now with added @adrianjclarke.bsky.social and George Rees-Julian. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kssl...

Amid a backdrop of political unrest in America and Gianni Infantino’s personal quest to ruin football, @dannybkelly.bsky.social peers beyond the negatives to see that the beautiful game itself will always endure. Read it here. ⬇️ trackrecordmedia.org/2025/09/10/t...

Well, we certainly didn't expect <that> from England. @adrianjclarke.bsky.social is on ROUTE ONE to explain what just happened. Norway are in incredible form, so we've got @kasperwikestad.bsky.social in to tell us more. And there's all the usual stuff too, so have a listen. pod.fo/e/3283df

Are you hankering for a taste of what's on today's episode of Route One with @iainmacintosh.bsky.social? Hanker no longer. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Adrian Clarke on England. 🇳🇴 @kasperwikestad.bsky.social on Norway. 🌍 All the international action. Listen: podfollow.com/1823912083 Watch: www.youtube.com/@routeonefoo...

The new video edition of ROUTE ONE is live, the last to feature the background NPC plant, alas. I was made promises about furniture delivery that were not honoured. Anyway. Here it is. Forest, USMNT, all the results. Some gurning. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAEI...

The new episode of FM Classic is here and I've had just about enough of Erwin Koeman's shit. trackrecordmedia.org/2025/09/09/f...

🔜 Coming soon on Route One with @iainmacintosh.bsky.social ➡️ Nuno’s exit dissected by @mattdaviesadams.bsky.social ➡️ Mike Zimmerman Poch’s struggles Stateside ➡️ Did Leverkusen nail it with Hjulmand? 🔗 podfollow.com/1823912083 🔗 www.youtube.com/@routeonefoo...

Nuno out, Ange in, what’s going on at Forest @mattdaviesadams.bsky.social And, while we’re at it, what’s going on with the USMNT @mikezimmermann.bsky.social? Plus, all the results and news you need, plus some that you don't. Here’s ROUTE ONE... pod.fo/e/3278e6

I really wouldn't want to be the Nottingham Forest manager who follows Nuno. The 'recent success' bar has been set too high. I think I'd quite like to be the Nottingham Forest manager who follows Ange though... (and that's not a dig at Ange, I just think this is going to be a really hard job now)

ROUTE ONE is now available on YouTube and you can watch it right here. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQcE...
