Just two weeks into the new Premier League season, and the world’s most competitive league is already giving the #Pondcast team plenty to talk about.

#Pondcast: we’re back whether you wanted us or not
Though it’s literally been just a few weeks since the last episode of Season 3, with the Premier League 2016/17 campaign kicking of in just a few days’ time, it’s time for the return of the #Pondcast for Season 4!

WSOTP pod: how many concussion symptoms am i showing?

Football is back! Well, it actually never left. After all, we’ve had a litany of international matches and MLS league action to keep us entertained all summer and then some. But for most people — myself included — the soccer equivalent of the main course was finally served up over the weekend in the form […]

What a week it was for football. Spain, long the kings of European club and international soccer, was humbled over the course of two nights in Germany. The shock waves of the thorough beatings received by Barcelona and Real Madrid are still reverberating a week later as we head into the return ties in Spain. Meanwhile, the […]
