Ramble Extra: English excellence & Nutty Butter

Always funny, never dull, The Football Ramble's podcasts won three gongs in the 2009 Soccerlens Awards - Best Football Podcast (Editor's Choice and Readers' Choice) plus Funniest Football Website.

And they also scooped Best EPL Podcast and Funniest Website in the EPL Talk Awards.

Every week, they are lovely enough to produce a special, exclusive extra bit for FourFourTwo.com.

This week, the Ramblers discuss the new English academy of excellence, the lack of excellence in the English team and Pete's new peanut butter-based product.

You'll have to listen to get it.

So why not start listening, open another window and carry on reading too?
