Booked and Abandoned is your ultimate grassroots football podcast, where hosts Andrew and Scott explore the untold stories of the beautiful game at its rawest and most relatable level.

When aiming for football legends like David Beckham leads to being ghosted harder than a Sunday league goalkeeper during a penalty shootout, Andrew and Scott turn their attention to the unsung heroes of the pitch—players with more passion than trophies, more grit than glamour, and just the right amount of banter.

With dodgy pitches, dramatic half-time oranges, and tales that range from laugh-out-loud funny to genuinely touching, "Booked and Abandoned" brings you the grassroots football experience in all its unfiltered glory.

This podcast celebrates the love of the game, one story at a time. So grab a cuppa, lace up your boots, and join us for a hilarious, heartfelt, and totally un-Premier League ride.

    This week we’re joined by Katherine Patmore, a women’s football legend who’s come full circle.

    From school footy to social teams at Oratia & Waitemata, to the competitive grind with West Coast Rangers… and now back where it all began.

    We get into the real side of the game, the football, the drinks, the hangovers, and the friendships that keep you coming back.

    And of course… how much does your game actually resemble Sam Kerr after a couple?

    Bob Lenarduzzi ghosted us… so we went global anyway.

    So instead we have Brad Aylwin, from football to ice hockey to pro downhill skiing (yeah, seriously)… and somehow back to football again.

    A few scars, plenty of stories, and proof the game never really lets you go.

    So we’ve gone young, still gets asked for ID young, this week’s guest is Callum Roberson, just 19 and already playing men’s first team football for Ellerslie AFC, after senior minutes with Franklin United, Mosgiel AFC and Matamata, and as a bonus he is another goal keeper!
