Football Weekly Extra: Portsmouth taken over yet again

James Richardson invites Barry Glendenning, Kevin McCarra and John Ashdown to round up all the big football stories, some of which don't involve takeovers, administration and bedroom shenanigans.

FA Cup replays are on the agenda, after Spurs ended Leeds's spirited run and Palace knocked out Wolves with a perfect hat-trick from Danny Butterfield, of all people.

As Portsmouth are taken over for the fourth time this season, the pod wonder what the devil is going on down at Fratton Park? Luckily, Pompey expert Jamie Jackson is on the blower with the details.

Excitingly it's also time for Football Weekly's annual SPL round-up. Ewan Murray is on hand to discuss Robbie Keane's loan move to Celtic, Hibs making things competitive and the firebombing of DaMarcus Beasley's motor.

Things take a turn for the Danny Dyer when the world's toughest derbies come up for discussion, and there are nods to MC Robinho, Silvio Berlusconi's keen eye for talent and Benjani's paper jam.
