Week 22 in the prem is over! So there's only one thing left to do before we say goodbye... we gotta discuss it! Chelsea and Manchester City got themselves back to winning ways. Arsenal blew a 2-0 lead, and Liverpool left it extremely late. Each of the bottom four all failed to capitalize on each other's misery and so of the middle pack of, Fulham, Aston Villa, and Bournemouth all continued to impress.

Episode 53! Matchday 21... the midweek matches! These last couple of weeks have been chaotic in the prem, and that, of course, did not change with this match day either. Lots of dropped points at the top for everyone not named Arsenal and Newcastle! And even more points were dropped at the bottom of the table. Which is not good at all during this last half the season! So it offers a lot to talk about... so let's talk!

2024 is over and with it means we need to do a recap as everyone does this time of year! Canada enjoyed a great year in football, whether it was our men's Copa run, our women having to fight controversy, the CPL enjoying a great year, Canadians in league play found lot so of success too. It was a great year and I've got so much to talk about. 11 pages of notes, 5618 words, and an hour & 18 minutes. So let's talk about it, let's talk about 2024.

Well, we're now through the season and the table feels like it's really shaped out. We know who's in the thick of the relegation battle, who's chasing Europe and who could be lifting the trophy at the end of it all. A lot of teams at the top dropped points, where mid to low-level teams got some massive points! So let's talk about it!

Halfway throught the 2024/25 season... where'd all the time go? They grow up so friggin fast! But it's the first day of the year and the 50th episode of the Maple Footy Podcast! It was a big week for Liverpool as they destroyed West Ham, Chelsea continued to be stuck in the trenches but not quite as bad as Manchester United. There was a load of draws as well but still even those brought big results and big performances! So let's talk about it...

Week 18 of the prem... nearly halfway through the season and my only question is... HOW? It feels like we just started but now the boxing day fixtures have been played and there's still loads to talk about. Wolves with a big win, Forest continue to impress, Villa stumble thanks to a red card that probably shouldn't have been. Chelsea suffer just their 3rd loss of the season, Manchester City and Manchester United continue their poor runs of form. Liverpool still sit pretty at the top of the table. So let's discuss it all!

Week 17 of the prem and it's the last one before Christmas! It feels like some teams were the stars on top of the tree while others perhaps got a lump of coal. No game showed this more than Tottenham and Liverpool, a gulf in class between two sides. Then there are teams like Nottingham Forest, Bournemouth, and Villa who continued their great seasons with great results. Opposite of that both Manchesters and Leicester had some days at the office. Chelsea also faltered whilst Aresnal made up some ground in the title race... so let's talk about it!

Week 16 is over and in the books! Liverpool and Fulham entertained everyone! Chelsea racked up a big win and find themselves in the title race! Arsenal faltered again. Ipswich got themselves a massive win. Wolves and Saints both parted ways with their managers, they'll hope that'll get their seasons back on track. The Machester derby also took place, turns out Manchester is red. There's a lot to talk about... so lets!
