Jim, Pete and The Bacon Boy are back with some more fat-chewing Tuesday chat™ as we draw comparisons between the mixed fortunes of Aston Villa and Newcastle, both of whom are struggling to scale previous heights. And, wait, why has Jason Tindall joined Creed?

Elsewhere, we pour deserved scorn on FIFA’s ludicrous report into Saudi Arabia’s 2034 World Cup bid - one that has deemed the risk of human rights violations as “medium” - and celebrate some lovely chaos from the FA Cup second round. Plus, we decide who needs something the least from tonight’s pair of relegation six-pointers.
