Very expensive bay leaf

The Totally Football Show with James Richardson

Jimbo welcomes Michael Cox, Duncan Alexander and Dominic Fifield into the Totally pod as the Premier League returns with a fascinating fixture list.

Ranieri returns to the Premier League, Vieira goes back to Arsenal and Newcastle host Spurs with Steve Bruce set to take charge for his thousandth game and possibly his last at St James Park. We spare a thought for a manager who doesn’t get much – if any – respect. And is Harry Kane’s value falling?

Brentford take on Chelsea in a West London derby. Is it time for Timo to be Romelu’s regular partner in attack?

We venture into the Isthmian League and remember that Glenn Hoddle was very good at football.

Plus meeting footballers in real life and the issues facing the door-to-door fishmonger.
