Football Weekly: Poland block England's path to Brazil

On today's Football Weekly, James Richardson has Gregg Bakowski, John Ashdown and Marcus Christenson in the pod to talk about Friday's World Cup qualifiers – including a vital win for England against Montenegro and a brace for Nicklas Bendtner. Yes, Nicklas Bendtner – and look forward to Tuesday night's final games. Will Poland consign their hosts to the play-offs by getting a result at Wembley? Will Iceland make history? And how many will Holland put past Turkey, having honked Hungary 8-1?

Also in the podcast, we head to League One, where Sheffield United's sheikh-y start finally cost David Weir his job, before heading to the Conference and discussing another red card for the ever-placid Barnet player-manager, Edgar Davids.

Sid Lowe, Sean Ingle and Amy Lawrence will be with us in an extra special edition of the pod on Thursday, so leave your questions for them in the comments below.

And if you think you're going to find yourself anywhere near Swansea at lunchtime on Monday 4 November, come and join us for Football Weekly Live.
