  • Short and Very Sweet

    Excellent pod summarising the previous weekend games; delivered by two of the best and most knowledgable in the women’s game.

    There’s no substitute for experience and expertise.

    I listen to Rachel and Sophie on numerous pods where they appear separately but together they make a great team.

    World Cup pod was great and so pleased they have continued to deliver this season.

    Give it a listen!
