Football Weekly: The Premier League title race ... back on!

AC Jimbo's got Gregg Roughley, Paolo Bandini and Paul Doyle in the pod for another bank holiday edition of Football Weekly.

We start with the unexpected sting in the tail to the Premier League title race. Arsenal's defeat of Manchester United probably came too late for their own aspirations, but Chelsea - who beat Tottenham thanks to another blunder by Heurelho Gomes and a linesman - are now just three points behind United, and the two meet next Sunday at Old Trafford. Woof indeed.

Abroad, we delve into the race scandal at the heart of the France Football Federation, and we hear from Sid Lowe about the fourth and final El Clásico and wonder if this latest meeting between Real Madrid and Barcelona can get any more spiteful.

Finally, we salute QPR, who clinched promotion back to the top tier of English football for the first time in 15 years - but, with the FA set to rule on Alejandro Faurlín's signing on Friday, will they still be celebrating at the end of the week?
