Fantasy Football Wives

Every week best friends Ania and Sarah discuss their fantasy football team selections and other football related topics from the wife's perspective. Ania is quite good at fantasy football and has been top of her league for a number of years, Sarah not so good but enthusiastic. The two girls live in different countries and discussing football and getting competitive over fantasy football forms a very important part of their friendship - even though they rarely agree.Both girls are married rival reds - Ania, a Spurs fan, married an Arsenal fan, and Sarah a Man City fan married a devil. This makes household football supporting interesting to say the least. Expect reviews of the games, the players and who to have in your team for the week ahead mixed with the odd baby crying and moan about our husbands choice of football team. Hosted on Acast.
