The Preview Show: The Frank factor

The Premier League is back! What’s more, lovely Frank Lampard has also returned to the fold. Marcus, Jim and David look ahead to tonight’s opening fixture and wonder if Super Frank is ready to return to the big time as a manager.

Elsewhere, there’s a classic thigh rubber to start the season between Newcastle and Liverpool. Plus, dog merch has officially hit the shelves in a club shop near you.
