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.

What Christmas Is Really Like As A Professional Football Player in The Premier League
It’s the Wildcards Christmas Special - and chaos is firmly on the menu.
In Episode 20, Jermaine Jenas and Jermaine Pennant wrap up the festive period with a classic mix of FPL frustration, Premier League debate, and behind-the-scenes football stories you will not hear anywhere else.

The lads break down another unpredictable FPL gameweek, including brutal bench boost pain, missed hauls, festive transfers, and the players everyone is rage-selling over Christmas. From Morgan Rogers rescuing teams once again to Dominic Calvert-Lewin punishing managers from the bench, this episode captures the reality of managing FPL during the festive fixture pile-up.
There’s also a proper debate around the lack of Boxing Day football this season, with both hosts sharing what Christmas was really like as Premier League players - from training on Christmas Day and being stuck in hotels, to missing New Year’s Eve celebrations and dealing with frozen pitches.
The highlight comes with one of the most outrageous stories ever told on Wildcards, as Pennant reveals how a New Year’s Eve fancy-dress decision landed him in the national newspapers - and almost got him cancelled before a match.
