Wildcards: Jermaine Jenas & Jermaine Pennant Launch Explosive New Football Podcast That Brings Fantasy Football Obsession to Life
Former England internationals and fan-favourite pundits Jermaine Jenas and Jermaine Pennant announce the launch of their brand new podcast Wildcards on Friday 15th August – a weekly no-holds-barred football podcast where FPL obsession meets real-life dressing room drama, transfer tales and weekly chaos from the beautiful game.
The show rips the roof off your fantasy football group chat and brings the banter, rivalry, and behind-the-scenes secrets straight to your ears – from two players who’ve lived it at the highest level.
“We’re bringing the arguments, the disasters, and the madness from our own FPL group chat into the spotlight - with no filter” says Jermaine Jenas.
“We’re giving football fans access to the kind of chat they wish they heard on TV” adds Jermaine Pennant.
What to Expect on Wildcards:
Fantasy League Drama: Weekly wins, wildcard disasters, triple captain regrets – and the kind of trash talk you’d expect from two ex-pros who still really want to win.
Unfiltered Football Stories: No scripts. No polish. Just real stories from England camps, Premier League dressing rooms, and the player’s WhatsApp groups.
Insider Access: JJ and Pennant are still close to top players. Expect voice notes, rumours from the training ground, and off-the-record insight you won’t hear on mainstream media.
Weekly Mayhem: Transfer reactions, hot takes, forfeits, and fan shout-outs. It’s the FPL battleground you didn’t know you needed.
With weekly episodes dropping every Friday - from Aug 15th - Wildcards is set to become the go-to listen for fans who love fantasy football and want real talk from real players who’ve walked the walk.

Has Fantasy Football Gone Too Far with DEFCON Points? And Does Football Knowledge Actually Make You Worse at FPL!
This week, JJ’s losing patience with fantasy football logic while JP’s fuming at DEFCON points stealing the spotlight from actual goals.

The real reason Jermaine thinks Sunderland won’t go down (after calling them “poo-poo”)
Liverpool’s defensive comeback vs Villa and Madrid
Whether Arsenal have already sealed the Premier League
Why JJ thinks captaining Haaland this week could be a huge mistake
This is the football podcast that turns your FPL group chat into pure entertainment; football insight, and unfiltered takes, this is the Wildcards chaos you live for.
