Ep. 55: What Can Football Learn from Sidemen?

Football is growing in new ways. With Sidemen having sold out Wembley and Baller League finally launching in the UK, there are more ways than ever to consume football – all under the guise of entertainment. The VERSUS team reflects on whether these alternative football provisions are ushering in a new era for a beautiful game and whether the established order needs to learn from it. We evaluate the WPLL’s proposals to eliminate relegation from the WSL, and give Paul Pogba his overdue flowers. ‘The Future of Football’ is a podcast from VERSUS bringing you closer to the people, the stories and the ideas shaping the future of the game we love.
