Ramble Extra: Crime-aldinho & Messi on Cheryl

Always funny, never dull, The Football Ramble's podcasts won three gongs in the 2009 Soccerlens Awards - Best Football Podcast (Editor's Choice and Readers' Choice) plus Funniest Football Website.

And they also scooped Best EPL Podcast and Funniest Website in the EPL Talk Awards.

Every Friday, they are lovely enough to produce a special, exclusive extra bit for FourFourTwo.com.

This week, the Ramblers discuss players we will miss at the World Cup, Crime-aldinho and what Messi thinks about Cheryl Cole.

You'll have to listen to get it.

So why not start listening, open another window and carry on reading too?
