Whistleblowers is football’s most original new podcast - lifting the lid on the parts of the game no one else talks about. Hosted by Gordon Smart, with ex-elite referee Mark Clattenburg and veteran journalist Ian Ladyman, this isn’t another safe roundtable of punditry. It’s football told differently - with insight, authority, and plenty of laughs. From what really goes on in the referee’s room, to how clubs spin crises and who’s pulling the strings behind the scenes - Whistleblowers brings the inside stories only those at the heart of the game can tell. Players have had their say. Now, it’s time to hear from the people who actually know how football works.

This week on Whistleblowers, Gordon Smart and Mark Clattenburg are joined by veteran Sun journalist Andy Dillon, who lifts the lid on 26 years of wild football stories. From Chelsea players microwaving their boots and Graham Potter making his team perform Swan Lake, to Russell Martin’s Loch Lomond dip after a Rangers defeat.
Andy also relives his biggest scoops - from Edu’s fake passport scandal to Wayne Rooney’s metatarsal miracle before the 2006 World Cup - and shares the tabloid headlines that made history (and sometimes made managers furious). Plus: stag do chaos, paparazzi hiding in bushes, and the legendary tale of the parasailing donkey.
