  • Are Chelsea Anywhere Near Champions League Level?
    This week on Whistleblowers, Gordon Smart is joined by Mark Clattenburg and, in a change to our usual programming, the man who asked Ian Ladyman to be his best man, Andy Dillon, takes the reigns. From newsroom chaos and Gordon’s surreal dinner with Pele to unforgettable nights at Upton Park and the reality of West Ham’s London Stadium. There’s discussion on Chelsea and whether Graham Potter’s time at Stamford Bridge has left lasting scars, plus a look at what fans really expect from their clubs.  Later, David Bentley and Graham Stack drop in with tales from their careers and reveal how ex-pros are stepping into the boxing ring to raise money for charity.

  • John Obi Mikel, Chelsea and The Racist Allegation That Could’ve Ruined My Life
    This week on Whistleblowers, Gordon Smart, Ian Ladyman, and Mark Clattenburg kick off by discussing ideas to reform Scottish football and analyse whether relegation playoffs would impact the Premier League. Clattenburg discusses his darkest period as an official when he was accused of racism by Chelsea - a story that shook the game and nearly ended his career. The lads also tackle American owners’ attitudes to relegation, forgotten fans in league reform, and Ian shares a personal grudge story about David Moyes that still lingers today.

  • Ange Postecoglou: Can ‘Angeball’ Survive The Marinakis Machine at Nottingham Forest?
    Nottingham Forest in chaos. Nuno’s sacking, agent power, and Ange Postecoglou’s bold arrival under Evangelos Maranakis.  Then we discuss as Ryan Giggs is once again missing from the Hall of Fame. Should off-field allegations keep one of the Premier League’s finest ever out? Before Scarlett Douglas joins the panel to talk Arsenal’s frustrations, Arteta’s future and how American fans live and breathe the Premier League - from tailgates to Messi in Miami.

  • Inside Craig Bellamy’s Most Outrageous Moment
    This week Gordon Smart, Ian Ladyman and Mark Clattenburg dig into the state of modern football fandom, asking why supporters are leaving games early and whether TV kick-off times and rising prices are pushing genuine fans away.  Alongside the debate, the stories take centre stage. Clattenburg recalls the day a Rob Lee goal left him covered in filth (literally poo) at St James’ Park, and the unforgettable moment Craig Bellamy grabbed his balls after a red card. Ian Ladyman opens up about the article that ended his friendship with David Platt and the heated player confrontations that come with his reporting.  The trio also share their first memories of walking into a stadium, the magic of seeing the pitch, and what makes football culture so unique.  Whistleblowers | Football From The Inside Out Hosts: Gordon Smart, Mark Clattenburg and Ian Ladyman Producer: Henry Williams Executive Producer: Jamie East Researcher: William Colledge Booker: Ashley Whitt Video Editor: Luke Shelley Content Editor: Joseph Palmer Production Manager: Vittoria Cecchini  Social Handles: X: @blowerspod Instagram: whistleblowerspod TikTok: whistleblowerspodcast Email: [email protected] A Daily Mail Podcast.

  • Inside the Isak Transfer Fallout: Fan Reactions, Dressing Room Splits & Gordon’s Instagram Story
    This week on Whistleblowers, we kick off with Clattenburg’s chaotic Great North Run preparations, recall Gordon’s past as the voice of Greggs, and a sharp chat about AI killing football media jobs. Daily Mail’s Nathan Salt joins to give us the inside line on Manchester United - including a wild tale of the club threatening to “hunt him down” over a leaked debut story.  From there, we unpack why three ex-United managers lost jobs in the same week, and even hear the story of Jose Mourinho getting a haircut surrounded by adoring fans. We also dive deep into player power and loyalty - the fallout from Isak’s Liverpool move, Anthony Gordon’s farewell post, and what it all means for Newcastle fans. Plus, a heated discussion on whether clubs are truly backing managers like Rúben Amorim, or just leaving them to front the PR battles.
