Hull beating Liverpool, Man Utd's title fears, AVB's anger and Jol's axing - it's all on the Football Podcast.

Sky Sports News Radio presenter Ben Ransom hosts this week's Football Podcast and is joined in the studio by SkySports.com's Adam Bate and TEAMtalk.com's James Marshment as they look back on the big talking points from this weekend's games in the Premier League. No margin for error! Manchester United drew 2-2 at Tottenham on Sunday and Marshy explains why David Moyes is playing a very clever game with his claim that the Red Devils have no margin for error in the title race. AVB rant was uncomfortable! Adam was in the White Hart Lane media room on Sunday to hear AVB's rant at the press and our man explains why the Tottenham manager's tirade made everyone in the room feel "uncomfortable". Adam also goes into great detail about how Villas-Boas has inadvertently taken plaudits away from a good Spurs performance, while Marshy feels the Portuguese coach has shown "massive immaturity" in letting off steam in this manner. To Hull and back! Liverpool slipped to a shock 3-1 defeat at Hull on Sunday, and while Marshy feels Brendan Rodgers must take some of the blame for constantly changing formation, all are in agreement that the Tigers deserve more credit. Managerial madness! The trio get to grips with the four managerial sackings over the weekend with Dave Jones, Owen Coyle, David Flitcroft and Martin Jol all relieved of their posts. Everyone is in agreement that Jol's departurecomes as no surprise, with Bate blasting Fulham's lack of organisation this season and explaining why Rene Meulensteen has a tricky task on his hands. Marshy also has sympathy for Coyle and Flitcroft, but Bate has a laugh at Jones' expense and feels the writing was on the wall as soon as he signed a certain player. Best of the rest! Aaron Ramsey's prospects of being named Footballer of the Year, Man United's midweek clash with Everton and the forthcoming live games on Sky Sports are also debated on a jam-packed episode.
