Rule The Roost - A Tottenham Hotspur Podcast

Rule The Roost - A Tottenham Hotspur Podcast

Rule the Roost is a Spurs podcast where proper football man-isms meet arthouse pretension. Every Monday, Jack’s joined by a guest to wrestle with whatever state Tottenham are in – from match discussions to transfer talk and identity to existential dread. Thursdays are for Q&As, your chance to ask serious (or not) questions. And after every match, there’s a solo pod recorded on the final whistle: unfiltered, emotional, and usually involving Jack crying about Ledley King (and now Son Heung-min too). If you like your football chat somewhere between pub preacher and quasi-intellectual, you’ll probably get on with this. Expect plenty of pop-culture references too. Up the Spurs.

Son’s Tears, Shark Fears & Yet More Transfer Woes (Q&A)

August 7, 2025 • 72 mins
It’s Thursday Q&A time and The Fighting Cock's Flav returns for a fun packed episode. Opening with that emotional farewell from Sonny, what does it mean for the team, the dressing room, and Spurs’ identity moving forward? Has some of the star factor gone with him? Then it’s onto the transfer window. Another frustrating summer? Maybe. But is it just the usual Levy cycle or are we all guilty of forgetting just how much has already ...

Spurs Win Another Trophy - Paul O Keefe (Q&A)

July 31, 2025 • 79 mins
With Spurs tasting glory once more, this time at the hands or arch-rivals Arsenal in the Hong Kong Festival of Football, spirits were high... almost high enough to put behind us the Morgan Gibbs White saga. But to talk over the deal that never was, Jack is joined by Tottenham's man in the know, Paul O Keefe - who not only dives into the MGW deal, but gives an additional perspective on Levy and the inner workings at Spurs. He also a...

Bloody Marinakis

July 28, 2025 • 58 mins
He may well have scuppered our deal for Morgan Gibbs White, but why haven't Spurs been proactive elsewhere? It feels like the same old story yet again up in ENIC towers.  Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/ruletheroost. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Won't Somebody Think Of The Pigeons? (Q&A)

July 24, 2025 • 81 mins
With the news that club legend Son Heung-min might be leaving, Jack is joined by billie t to discuss why we understand the reasons for that, but why we don't exactly love the idea of it. What's going on with Morgan Gibbs-White, what's the gut feeling? Is it off? We think it might be off. There's been a sack load of questions this week so expect some in-depth discussions on Forest and their owner Marinakis, as well as their increasi...

Built in a Lab

July 21, 2025 • 63 mins
Vuskovic, that's it. That's the description. What on earth are we about to unleash unto the Premier League? Surely we won't be loaning him out. Not that we want to get excited about a 45 minute runout against League One opposition, but he may well be our best player already, say Jack and this week's guest Hunter Godson. It's worth mentioning the Kudus was also really great, and is spoken about at length. Where do they all play, you...

I give my thoughts on his approach to tactics, journalists asking him leading questions about Levy and the club's tendency for cycling through managers and share my take on what he said about k...

New Shiny Thing

June 30, 2025 • 65 mins
Jack is joined by Gavin to discuss the current transfer noises around the club. Romero out? Would we want him out? As annoying as he can be, isn't he still really, really good? Who takes his place? Is Eze now going to Arsenal? That'd be quite annoying... Maybe we'll get Kudus instead?
