In the 77th edition of the Maple Footy Podcast, I discuss the lead up to the final day of Premier League action and how the top 5 race is the one to watch. Each team between Newcastle, Chelsea, Manchester City, Villa & Forest could all see themselves getting it, but not everyone will! Outside of that, a lot of Canadian Footballing news as there always is! So let's not waste any time and let's talk about it!

It was one of the last weekends for the Premier League this season, and there was a lot to talk about, especially when we're looking at those European places. Some teams dropped points and some gained... Nottingham Forest, Manchester City & Chelsea all dropped points. Aston Villa kept their UCL hopes alive, and Newcastle probably will be the happiest of the bunch. In this episode, we talk almost exclusively about the UCL race as it's brought us with the most talking points. We also chat a bit about our Canadian pals in the MLS, CPL & Europe. So let's chat about it all!

3/4 ways to 100!? Already?? That's wild... but let's chat about more about the prem this season, more specifically matchday 35! Some big matches of course with a good few teams chasing Europe. Villa, Chelsea, Newcastle, Manchester City, and Forest all needing results to get themselves into the UCL next season. That leaves a good little but to talk about when it comes to those teams! With relegation already confirmed and the same with the title that's where it feels like all eyes should be. In Canadian Soccer, the Canadian Championship & the fight for the Voyagers cup is underway. The Whitecaps have found themselves in their first ever Champions Cup final and our CPL boys are still providing great entertainment! So let's talk about it all and more...

In Episode 74 of the Maple Footy Podcast I talk all about this week's happens in Canadian Soccer and of course the English Prem! With the Prem the title has been wrapped up by Liverpool, something we've all known for a while but it's now officially official. The 3 teams have been confirmed relegated as well... Ipswich joins Leicester and Southampton. All that remains is the Champions League spots are still well and truly up for grabs. We also talk about the Canadian Premier League! Lots of matches there to discuss so let's discuss it all!

April 24th, 2025, something special happened inside of BC Place. Count me as someone who is jealous for not being in Vancouver to witness this historic night. So many records on the night, broken. History books were tossed out and rewritten. The Whitecaps recorded their highest attendance of the MLS Era, Brian White climbed their all-timer goalscorer charts to 4th with 65 goals across all competitions & last but not least, Messi has lost to his first-ever Canadian Club. It was truly a perfect night for the Whitecaps, from the fans in the stands to the players on the pitch, and staff on the touchline it was perfect. 2 Goals and NO away goals conceded which is a huge advantage to take into the second leg. It was massive. It was iconic. So let's talk about the Whitecaps' historic start to their season after such a historic night...

Episode 72 of the Maple Footy Podcast is now here, It's crunch time in the Prem while the CPL is just getting started! In the Prem, another team was added to the relegation list. Whilst Liverpool added 3 more points on the course to the Premier League crown. The European race heated up. Villa bested Newcastle, while Chelsea stole one in the dying seconds vs Fulham. Manchester City grabbed a big win as well! In the CPL, it was a great weekend in Canada, with some extremely entertaining games. Vancouver and Cavalry kicked off the weekend with a back match, Ottawa and York had a HIGH-scoring affair. Halifax won in their home opener over Pacific. Forge and Valour played out a cagey 1-1 draw with Valour. But there is still so much to talk about, so let's...

It is a genuine honour and pleasure to have had Noah Jensen on the podcast. He's a player I've absolutely loved watching play for Forge pretty much since the day he arrived in Hamilton. It was amazing to sit down and chat with him about his journey in football, some of his career highs, his idols, what he loves most about Forge & Hamilton and so much more. I have a list written down of guys I want to interview... Noah Jensen was on that listen, so this was simply incredible. A massive thank you to both Noah as well as Forge for letting this happen. Sit back and enjoy!

70 Episodes in... CRAZY! In this episode, I'm taking a look at the second weekend of CPL action, where Forge took on Pacific and left with 3 points. York hosted Halifax in a well-fought contest, and Ottawa offered the first true blowout of the season against Vancouver. But Terran Campbell wrote his name in the history books as he became the first player in league history to net 40. In the English Premier League, Liverpool pulled off a big win against the Hammers, Manchester City turned it around against Palace. The "United Derby" (if that's even a thing) was a one-sided affair. Oh, and Chelsea had another match against Ipswich... did they win? Well there was a lot to chat about so let's talk!
