While Matt and Nick briefly touch on the international break and the England men's team, (and even then their analysis is mainly about Bukayo Saka's Oyster card), most of their attention is on all things WSL! This includes the Chelsea's Women's side 3-2 win over Real Madrid and their 1-2 victory over Arsenal at the Emirates. The lads also go on to discuss the Fantasy Women's Super League game, which Nick has already started playing, and Matt announces his plans for an FPL Pod VS Tok episode featuring action from the WSL! More details coming soon.

Episode 11 also sees Nick review his Tik-Tok of the Week and this time it's the beautifully groomed FPL Addict who gets the Pod VS Tok treatment.

With Matt wrangling over whether to wildcard or not to wildcard, Nick announces that he is in fact playing this chip in a move that could make or break his season. Will this see him continue to sail up the ranks on a sea of green arrows or is this an act of hubris that will bring Team Pod back into the title race? Stay tuned to this and future episodes listeners to find out!

With the brothers not getting the chance to see any live games ahead of this week's episode, the footie clips in this episode feature some of the more random exchanges between Matt and Nick during the Tooting and Mitcham VS Camberley Town match. This includes them naming different clouds while there was a break in play. However, rest assured, Nick and Dad have since seen Balham FC VS AFC Croydon Athletic so there will be more non-league chat next week!

As always, you can compete against the brothers in the FPL Pod VS Tok mini-league, the code is: jeepsw.

Ahead of the upcoming international break, Matt and Nick look back at how their respective teams performed in game week seven. This leads both of them to talk about the possibility of removing the Egyptian King Mo Salah in an effort to bolster their squad's points scoring potential! The Liverpool chat also sees Nick sing the praises of The Red's second choice goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher, particularly in light of Alisson's hamstring injury!

The brother's wrangling around their under performing premium players also resonates with the question posed last week on FPL Family Podcast which was: "is FPL getting harder?" They discuss this quandary after Matt reviews FPL Family as his Podcast of the Week! Needless to say, Nick is far from impressed when his older brother describes Lee and Sam as FPL's answer to The Incredibles!

On the subject of all things film, Matt and Nick also talk about how the Joker would play FPL and there's more non-league action as Nick recounts his trip with Dad to see AFC Croydon Athletic take on Hythe Town! This includes analysis of Hythe's dominant performance, despite losing to the Rams, and their supporters' efforts to encourage their team, Portsmouth FC style, by ringing a bell at intervals during the game! Of course, Croydon fans described the away support as the "bell end!" This episode also features a few clips from the day!

In what was a more "rambly" episode than usual, the pod finishes with Matt celebrating the 10th anniversary of his and The Inside Left's J-League documentary, Together for the Goal. And before leaving you for another week, here are your deadlines and ways to contact us...

Alongside their weekly dose of FPL chat, Matt and Nick talk about their recent visit to the Imperial Sports Ground where they saw Tooting and Mitcham, (The Terrors), take on Camberley Town. This also prompts talk of some amusing improvised football chants, including the brother's favourite anthem "Comedy Town, what's the score?" Clips from the game, including Matt and Nick's beautiful singing voices, are placed at intervals during the show. Minute 24:30 also sees Matt manifest the Terrors taking a 2-1 lead!

The lads quickly hasten up the football pyramid to the Premier League as Nick reviews Fantasy Premier League powerhouses Holly Shand and FPL Raptor (Ross).

Listeners are then invited to the FPL Pod VS Tok training ground where Matt and Nick review their performances for game week six! This discussion includes thoughts on Crystal Palace's stuttering start to the season, Southhampton's Harwood-Bellis outscoring Arsenal's Saliba and Chris Wood's one in every two goal scoring record.

With this week bringing another victory for Team Tok, Matt's miserable run of form as manager of Team Pod is compounded as an unforced innuendo sees him fall into fits of laughter and Nick is left with the decision to either add to the mirth and chaos or keep the show on track. Spoiler: He does a bit of both!
