Shutdowns, Fifa and dealing with a general lack of football – Football Weekly

Join the conversation on Facebook, Twitter and email.

We start by discussing the changing face of football in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, before speaking to Sid Lowe, who is currently in lockdown at his Madrid home, and Archie Rhind-Tutt, who is living in Cologne.

We talk to Suzy Wrack about the SheBelieves Cup, Phil Neville and the ongoing rift at the heart of US Soccer, before wrapping up with a few suggestions, sent in by listeners, of how to pass the time without football.

Back on Thursday.

PS: unfortunately our show in London on 23 March has been cancelled. All ticket-holders will be contacted and refunded in due course.

PPS: we’re back in Leeds on 9 April, more details here – we will keep you updated on the status of this show
