About This Podcast
SACKED! is a high-concept football show that takes listeners behind the scenes of the Premier League — where power, pressure and politics collide.
Hosted by former Sunday Supplement presenter and founder of AMG Global Neil Ashton, SACKED! is set in the Owner’s Box of the fictional Crisis Club FC and features weekly guests including managers, former players, CEOs, sporting directors and leading journalists.
Each week the real stories behind football’s biggest decisions are discussed — the sackings, battles for survival, and what it’s like to win and lose at the highest level of the world’s most watched sport.
Each week the agenda features Crisis Club FC, Sackology and the Press Conference — where Neil and his guests are grilled by the most demanding people of all: The Fans.
Smart, dramatic and brutally honest, SACKED! is football told from the top down.
New episodes weekly.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
