Host Andrew Misra is joined by a devilish Barney Stephenson, the unflappable yet chatty Lewis Steele and we see the return of in-demand podcasting freelancer Kathryn Batte to spread yet more Humberside propaganda.

We agree that Ronaldo is quite good but don't go over the top with our praise as he apparently got most of his footballing inspiration from Stuart Elliot. Lewis talks through his seventh heaven at the Etihad and Kathryn s...

Host Andrew Misra is joined by a more mature, wiser Barney Stephenson, a stern yet excitable Lewis Steele and we see the return of the beast from the east - Jack Perry.

We dissect Real Madrid's tribulations and assess the potential of Ajax. We take a lot of questions onboard, try to understand the plight of Alexis Sanchez and give our verdict on the attempted rejuvenation of the stagnant German national team.

Host Andrew Misra is joined by the returning no-nonsense Joe Davies, a football boot and glove wielding Kathryn Batte, Barney Stephenson on the eve's eve of his birthday and the dependable grinning force that is Lewis Steele.

Misra spits a few bars at the start, before the panel dissect the Kepa Arrizabasaga and also ponder whether his name would make for a strong Wi-fi password, agree that Lionel Messi is really rather good and sh...

Host Andrew Misra is joined by the returning fresh-faced Jack Perry, a tardy Barney Stephenson and the reliable Lewis Steele.

We reflect on the Champions League and the thrill of the nil nil draw. The upstarts at AC Milan come into our thinking, Lewis displays aptitude for Roman numerals and there's plenty of fan engagement and trivia as ever.

Host Andrew Misra is joined by familiar faces Barney Stephenson and Lewis Steele plus the returning Kieran Ahuja and debutant Kathryn Batte. Plenty of football is discussed: is Sergio Aguero the greatest striker of the Premier League era and if not, who is? The panel manage to reach a unanimous verdict on the third greatest player in the world. They suggest their best squads to never win anything, with some unique suggestions. We ...

The 5WFootball podcast returns after a longer than planned absence with the first episode of 2019! Host Andrew Misra is joined by Jack Perry (no relation to Fred, he claims), a relaxed Lewis Steele and a characteristically dishevelled Barney Stephenson. There's a bit of goal celebration discussion and some Championship chat. There's also a lot of off-pitch stuff too. Things get a bit hairy with the panel offering insight into th...

Host Andrew Misra is joined by no fewer than six guests in a crammed studio for this festive party edition of the podcast! There’s a couple of new faces, a couple of returning faces and, well, some not so new ones... As we move into the season characterised by overindulgence, we start with a look back at a largely bygone era of boozing in football. After Lionel Messi bagged two free kicks in one La Liga game last weekend, we raise...

Andrew Misra is joined by Barney Stephenson, Lewis Steele and guest Alex Brotherton for the third episode of the pod. Continuing our technological progression of the first two episodes, we move into a podcast studio this time out. Swanky.

Andrew Misra is joined by Barney Stephenson and Lewis Steele for the 'post-pilot' episode of the pod. Featuring improved sound quality and a swanky jingle! Hear our bemused reaction to Thiago Motta suggesting a 2-7-2 setup could be the future, which would see the Goalkeeper playing alongside the central midfielders. Aptly located in 'the Diamond', we reflect on rogue formations. We also discuss violence and intimidation in the wak...
