About this episode

The hosts discuss the new Leeds United away kit, Ethan Ampadu's contract, and the club's summer transfer plans.

James, Darragh and Rocco are back for a summer catch-up - and despite "nothing happening," there's plenty to chew over. We kick off with the new Adidas 26/27 away kit (Rocco's not sold on the navy shorts), the historic trefoil logo and Leeds moving up Adidas' premium tier, before getting stuck into Paraag Marathe's annual address and what it tells us about how the 49ers are running the club. Then the big one: Ethan Ampadu's new four-year deal, no relegation clause, and why locking down the captain so early is the biggest statement Leeds could make this summer. The boys debate Farke's future, the transfer targets doing the rounds (Diomande, Harry Wilson and the never-ending goalkeeper search), who's likely to leave, and whether Gnonto could be another one that gets away. Plus: Rocco's off to Mexico for Uruguay v Spain at the World Cup, a genius (or daft?) idea for fixing extra time, why Karl Darlow might just be the answer in goal, and a lovely Rafinha tribute to Liam Cooper to finish.
