About this episode
Grant and Roger discuss the implications of LIV Golf and the financial landscape of football management.
Grant’s racing the clock to make a tee time at Sunningdale, but first he and Roger pull apart the future of LIV and Saudi money: Neom’s burning cash, the tallest‑building curse is flashing red, and suddenly golf’s easy money era doesn’t look so easy. From there it’s London in flames — Clear Lake buzzword merchants, Spurs hiring a “lead psychologist” on LinkedIn, Karen Brady discovering that nobody gets out of football’s C‑suite alive, and why West Ham’s brutal honesty is buying them goodwill while Chelsea drown in management‑speak. Its Goal/Own Goal, brought to you by Lockeroom.
