How Ellis Platten Travels The WORLD With Football! - GUEST ELLIS PLATTEN

Ellis Platten joins The Joy of Football for a brilliant, story-packed episode that mixes football culture, YouTube life, and proper rivalry. There’s a constant edge throughout as the Chelsea vs Leeds rivalry between Ellis and Neil bubbles away - setting the tone for a conversation full of passion, humour, and strong opinions. Ellis expresses why he fell in love with Leeds United and what makes Elland Road so special, before sharing incredible stories from the club! We also go behind the scenes of AwayDays, from how Ellis plans his trips, to travelling the world for football; including the coldest matches he’s ever experienced and the furthest he’s gone to chase the game. But it’s not always straightforward… from being questioned by police while filming, to a tense moment where he was told “you need to stop, they want to beat you up,” - this is the reality of football content creation. There’s also a deep dive into football shirt culture, including the story of Ellis' Lionel Messi 'match-worn' shirt, Martin Tyler’s own collection, and the debate around whether one iconic shirt might actually be a fake! This is a wide-ranging, story-driven episode packed with insight, humour, and a genuine love for football at every level.
