  • The Joy of Football, celebrating the greatest sport in the world.

    Join Neil Barnett (former Chelsea touch-liner announcer and football journalist) alongside 'The Voice' of the Premier League Martin Tyler (former SKY Sports Main Commentator) as they celebrate the greatest addiction in the World!

    On The Joy of Football, we discuss, not only the joy, but also the issues - no matter how obscure. Every week we select our 'Three of the Best' players, Martin gives us his 'Letter from the Gantry' on his football topic for the week, and Neil shares his 'Voice of Passion' on another. And that's just scratching the surface.

    So join us in celebrating the greatest addiction in the World: Football!
