  • Résumé

  • Football hooliganism is a dirty phrase in England. Say it and people will think of the 80s – the dark old days. Today, those terraces look very different. But the stories – of organised fights, of pub brawls, of banning orders – haven’t gone away.


    We see them everywhere on our social media timelines: a steady stream of violence swallowed by smartphones and regurgitated for hungry eyes online. This series digs deeper – beyond the stereotypes and tabloid headlines – to understand this violent subculture and why it’s forced its way back into our society in 2024.


    Embedded in our national sport, this is a story of class consciousness, rebellion, and adventure turning to embittered violence, tribalism, and greed. It is a story of what happens when society disenfranchises its people, dismantles its social structures, and pits them against one another.


    This is the untold story of The English Disease.


    From Stak, this is Season Two of the award-winning Legacy. Extraordinary sporting stories that really matter.

      Inside the Qatar World Cup | Episode 1
      Sep 16 2024

      How did we get here? Sports broadcaster Kate Mason travels back to 2010 and finds out how Qatar’s migrant worker crisis unfolded – and continues to endure to this day.


      She speaks to three workers about their experiences in the country, including one man who helped build some of the World’s Cup most prestigious venues. Their stories paint a stark, bleak picture of the abusive conditions suffered by those on which this tournament has been built.


      This is Episode 1 of Inside the Qatar World Cup, winner of Best Audio Documentary at the Sports Journalism Awards in 2023. Originally broadcast on the Football Ramble podcast feed in November 2022.

      What does this World Cup mean for Qatar? Sports broadcaster Kate Mason goes inside the Qatar club game and finds signs of a very deliberate footballing project.


      But are Qatar’s intentions going to survive their first contact with reality? We examine the tournament infrastructure for fans across Doha – from an unfinished fan park, to FIFA's luxury 'tent city' and desolate stadium surroundings – and find out that the World Cup is splitting Qatari society down the middle.


      This is Episode 2 of Inside the Qatar World Cup, winner of Best Audio Documentary at the Sports Journalism Awards in 2023. Originally broadcast on the Football Ramble podcast feed in November 2022.

      Inside the Qatar World Cup | Episode 3
      Sep 16 2024

      What does the future look like for Qatar, football, and the people we’ve spoken to?


      Sports broadcaster Kate Mason finds out more about the precarious situation of the LGBTQ+ community in the country and speaks to the only publicly gay Qatari. After officials were in a standoff with Danish broadcasters this week, Kate also explores Qatar's media environment and asks whether this World Cup will – really – be a wake-up call for the football community. Once the spotlight moves on, there are simply no guarantees.


      This is Episode 3 of Inside the Qatar World Cup, winner of Best Audio Documentary at the Sports Journalism Awards in 2023. Originally broadcast on the Football Ramble podcast feed in November 2022.
