Turnstiles & Touchlines Podcast
Turnstiles & Touchlines is where English football’s passion meets perspective. From the Premier League’s global spectacle to the grit and charm of the EFL, we go beyond the scoreline to explore the tactics, history, culture, and characters that make the beautiful game what it is.
Each week, we break down the matches that matter, share lighter moments in The Halftime Pint, and bring you voices from The Away End — fans, journalists, and local storytellers who live and breathe their clubs. From the terraces to the touchline, we examine how stadiums, neighborhoods, and supporters shape the heartbeat of the game.
Whether you’re standing on the terraces, glued to Match of the Day, or learning why a Tuesday night in Stoke is a thing, this is football from the ground up — connecting the sport’s past with its present and its lasting impact beyond the pitch.
