10 Men, No Subs... We Asked Fans to Trial for Royal Oak

Available for over a year

The new season has kicked off. Unfortunately for Steve, Paul and Bob there's a recruitment crisis, with Spooner stuck in Ireland and only 9 players on the pitch for the Oak. Luckily, loyal viewers have sent in their videos for the lads to review - is there a hidden gem in the pile of video tapes? Or will they need to delve into the free agent market and look again at Wynney? In a jam-packed episode, the lads discuss Thursday night premieres on YouTube, Mike Dean's unique approach to refereeing, Carrick and Man United's current run of form, and who they'd come back as if reincarnated. Kevin Keegan, Elvis Presley and Andi Peters all feature as the Royal Oak march on... You can also watch the YouTube premiere of each episode on the Game’s Gone channel, every Thursday at 7pm with Bob and Steve in the live chat (Paul is at Padel). VAR. XG. Inverted wing backs. The game has well and truly gone. Via his very own podcast, Steve Bracknall, Sunday league assistant manager and viral sensation will bring it back. Direct from the dressing room of his team, Royal Oak FC, Steve is joined by gaffer Paul Sampson and physio Bob the Bucket. Every episode, they’ll make sense of all the week’s footballing news and bring you updates from the Oak… Send your questions and voice notes to steve@bbc.co.uk or via whatsapp 0800 7831997 Marching on, together as one.
