Episode 3126: Mudryk Tests Positive, Lijnders Sacked, US Murph’s 2024, Christmas Party Emails

Tue 17th Dec 2024
Eoin, Ken, Murph and US Murph

“Chelsea Football Club can confirm the Football Association recently contacted our player Mykhailo Mudryk concerning an adverse finding in a routine urine test” – Enzo Maresca’s Shamrock Rovers press conference just got a lot more interesting! Ken looks at the issues around this positive test for Mudryk, the denial, and the possible implications for player and club.

Pep Lijnders has been let go after just 6 months in charge of RB Salzburg, news that will cheer his former boss, Jurgen Klopp.

We maintain a long and rich Second Captains tradition by chatting to US Murph about his favourite moments from 2024.
