1 minute

Welcome to this week’s Talking the Blues Podcast with George and Andy Costigan. With the international break upon us we spend 20 minutes or so talking about our former players who have retained coaching positions within the club.

We then look at the biggest story to hit football for many a year, the Saudi purchase of Newcastle United. We look at the background of the deal, the morality of it, and what faces the Premier League Board in the weeks ahead.

Finally a short piece on safe standing.

As ever, thanks for listening, all  our podcasts are available on on Spotify and iTunes and many other podcast platforms.
