A Beautiful Pod

Sunday, 14 Jun 2020

From the team that's brought you A Beautiful Game for most of the year, a new hour-long biweekly show where we discuss football even if it isn't being played. 3pm on a Saturday means football, so that's when the show will air, but every episode will also be available as a podcast on the website after its initial release!

In this, the final (for now...) episode of A Beautiful Pod, we preview the return of the Premier League post-Lockdown, discussing how we think teams will fare in the rest of the season and predicting if they'll finish higher, lower or in the same place in the table as they are now. Make sure to let us know on Twitter (@URYNews) if you want the pod to continue!
