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, Ian Ladyman, and Mark Clattenburg kick off by discussing ideas to reform Scottish football and analyse whether relegation playoffs would impact the Premier League.
Clattenburg discusses his darkest period as an official when he was accused of racism by Chelsea - a story that shook the game and nearly ended his career. The lads also tackle American owners’ attitudes to relegation, forgotten fans in league reform, and Ian shares a personal grudge story about David Moyes that still lingers today.
