  • Last gasp Iron
    Mar 27 2026

    Episode 53 of Season 4 sees Barra joined by Becky Wustrack, Ben Maidment and Dylan Whitbread to react to yet another dramatic late moment for Scunthorpe United, as the Iron rescued a point against league leaders Rochdale


    Beestin came off the bench to grab the equaliser in a game that was shaped by goalkeeping errors at both ends, and the panel discuss whether this latest late goal is a sign of resilience or a habit of making things harder than they need to be.


    Off the pitch, there’s movement in the squad as Leo Farrell returns to parent club Barnsley FC, while the Iron bring back in-form Dec Howe as they look to solve their attacking issues.


    Attention then turns to the weekend trip to face play-off hopefuls FC Halifax Town, with a big travelling support expected despite it not quite being a derby.

    We’re also joined by Luke Walsh in our Spy in the Camp segment to get the opposition view ahead of the Halifax clash.

  • Rolling on to Rochdale
    Mar 24 2026

    Episode 52 of Season 4 sees Barra joined by Marco Puliga and Gareth Holden to react to yet another dramatic comeback for Scunthorpe United, as the Iron came from behind to beat Braintree Town FC with a last-minute winner.


    After a nightmare start that saw the Iron go 1–0 down inside two minutes, the lads discuss the resilience, the chaos, and the growing habit of leaving it late — as Scunthorpe move 12 points clear inside the playoffs.


    There’s also reaction to manager Andy Butler revealing in his post-match interview that the players listen to the podcast — which may or may not explain the dramatic nature of recent performances.


    We’re joined by Char, host of the Absolutely EFL and Absolutely Non-League Show, for our Spy in the Camp segment, before looking ahead to a huge Tuesday night clash with league leaders Rochdale AFC — who also left it late at the weekend.


    Plus, there’s the latest FPL update, a round-up of the National League, and plenty more discussion along the way.

    Episode 50 of Season 4 sees Barra joined by Marco Puliga to break down a dramatic Community Day victory for Scunthorpe United, as the Iron left it late to secure all three points against Altrincham FC.


    The lads discuss the big talking points from the game, including a standout performance from Joe Starbuck, the continued impact of Pat Jones, and some of the ongoing questions around the defence.


    Attention then turns to Tuesday night’s huge away trip as the Iron travel all the way to Cornwall to face Truro City FC. Barra and Marco preview the game and what the team will need to do to come away with a result and we give our predictions as sponsored by the Unity group.


    There’s also the latest FPL update, where Marco is now dangerously close to finishing bottom of the league and facing next season’s forfeit — potentially appearing as the mascot for the opening game.
