From the boardroom to the locker rooms, sport catches imagination like little else. In this podcast we talk to the men and women, who make the big decisions and those who make the big plays to find where sport is; and, importantly, where it is going. We do so, for the only eyes that matter: those of the fan!

Season 8 Episode 10. Grant binge‑watches 24 hours of Masters coverage as Rory hangs on to claim back‑to‑back green jackets. From there he and Roger jump to Arsenal’s title nerves, German ultras nicking and burning flags, Infantino’s tone‑deaf World Cup cash‑grab, and why real, messy fan culture and lower‑league chaos still feel infinitely more honest than the leveraged “sport as asset class” fantasy. Along the way: Marie‑Louise Eta makes history as the first woman to take charge of a men’s team in any of Europe’s top five leagues, and an Italian prank call goes wrong. It’s Goal/Own Goal.
