The Dynamo Football Book Club is the podcast for football fans who love a good read. Each week, we dive into books by and about footballers — from autobiographies and biographies to ghostwritten epics and hidden gems. If Vardy’s vodka, Maradona mayhem, or the Cruyff kidnapping are your thing,, we’ve got you covered. We read em, so you don’t have to (although some of em you really ought to). The episodes are not tied to the match day cycle and can be listened to any time and in any order. Expect a lively chat, deep dives and a good old larf, har har. 🎙️ New episodes every week. ⚽️ Great for fans of football history, sportswriting, player memoirs, and podcast book clubs. ♬ Music by the wonderful Darragh Fenlon. *formerly the Ademola Bookmen Podcast.Copyright 2023 All rights reserved.

  • Episode 43: It's Only the Ray Parlour Autobiography - The Romford Pelé
    Jul 31 2025

    🎙️ Episode 43 of the Dynamo Football Bookclub is out!

    💆‍♂️ Massage parlour, 💅 beauty parlour… Ray Parlour.

    That’s right — it’s only Ray Parlour’s autobiography, The Romford Pelé! 📖⚽

    Fun fact: Parlour has played in the Premier League for Arsenal more times than any other player 🔴⚪ He’s also a cheeky chappie who stole potted plants 🪴, terrorised poor old Martin Keown, and torpedoed his own England career 🌪️ by failing to understand the importance of faith healing.

    It’s Episode 43 of the 🎧 Dynamo Football Bookclub, and we’re diving into the book of the Parlour who brought the 😂light relief to those legendary Arsenal squads of the late ’90s and early ’00s 🏆👊.

  • Injury Time 12: African EPL Draft - Danny Invincible 11s v. Orlando Pirates
    Jul 23 2025

    🎧 Episode 12 of Injury Time is here! 🎙️

    It’s the Great African Draft Showdown — Johnny’s Danny Invincible 11s take on Alistair’s Orlando Pirates in a five-a-side battle to determine who really knows their African football EPL legends. 🇿🇦⚽🇪🇬🇨🇲

    Our hosts pick their best five-a-side teams of African Premier League players and AI tells us who’d win.

    With 33 of Africa’s 54 nations represented in the Premier League to date, the talent pool is deep… but that doesn’t mean it was easy, some positions are stacked (hello, strikers 😅), others… not so much (goalkeeper, anyone? 🧤).

    Check out and let us know who you think were the most under-rated African players to play in the EPL. We’d love to hear from you.
