PITCH-TALK UNFILTERED 🎙

The podcast series from the authors of Football For Sale where they cut through the noise to discuss real football: the game as it’s lived - unfiltered, honest, necessary. This series inspired the book. Now, it continues the conversation.

LISTEN EXCLUSIVELY ON SPOTIFY

This is not your average football podcast talking about fairytales and rainbows. The authors discuss the greed, corruption and exploitation shaping modern football. They also offer insights into how to navigate a system which is designed to work against you. If you’re the parent of a young player, or you're an aspiring footballer, start here. Click here to follow and listen to the series on Spotify.

We lift the lid on one of football’s most overlooked heroes: free agents. While the spotlight stays fixed on top-tier celebrities and billion-euro transfers, thousands of players in lower leagues are left without contracts, support, or stability. The players training alone, dealing with mental health pressures, and fighting to keep their dreams alive in a system that often forgets them.

Opinions in global football are diverse and often polarising. To succeed, you need to write your own journey, learn to navigate the game, and develop your unique path to the top. This requires self-awareness, adaptability, and the courage to forge your own way in a competitive industry.

Beneath the surface lies a ruthless system driven by profit. From youth academies to elite clubs, every stage is influenced by bad actors, investors, and decision-makers whose priorities often clash with player welfare.

Listen 🎧

We cut through the noise to discuss the real football: the game as it’s actually lived, not the polished 'rainbow & lollipop' PR version FIFA sells to the world. We discuss the industry in detail looking at lower league competitions like Australia’s A-League, with a former professional Australian and European youth footballer.

They've Warned About It For Years. Still, The System Holds.

Football For Sale is the first book to investigate the full scale of exploitation in global football, from trafficked teenagers and ghost agents, to the opaque deals that govern the lower leagues.

Drawing on firsthand accounts, insider testimony, and years of research, it reveals how power and profit move unchecked through the game’s underbelly. But it doesn’t stop there. It outlines the reforms needed to protect players, families, and the future of football itself.

This is not surface-level reporting of a few bad actors. It’s a detailed account of how broken incentives, regulatory failure, and wilful ignorance have created a structure that rewards silence and punishes transparency.

Football For Sale connects the local to the global, from empty promises in academies to untraceable player movements across continents. It’s a necessary read for anyone who still believes the game belongs to the people.

We WARNED YOU

Oct., 2025: The FBI announced arrests of more than 30 individuals in two coordinated criminal probes involving the NBA, insider betting and mafia-backed gambling operations. While most public commentary has fixated on basketball, the implications extend far beyond one league.

The scandal underscores a systemic failure across professional sport and betting markets, one we warned about in our book. Football for Sale was published April 2025.
