The Offside Rule has been added to JACK Radio's weekly line-up ahead of the 2019/20 Premier League season – the first time that the celebrated podcast has had a home on British radio.

From this Friday*, The Offside Rule trio of Lynsey Hooper, Kait Borsay and Hayley McQueen will broadcast weekly from 7pm to 8pm, with a replay on Saturday mornings (6am to 7am), leading the conversation around the week’s football stories, giving behind-the-scenes insight and including a rotating panel of special guests.

The show focuses on all things football – the men’s game, the women’s game; all versions and all levels.

“We are absolutely thrilled that The Offside Rule will soon be heard on national radio through JACK Radio," said Lynsey. "There is great synergy between both brands and, as a result of this collaboration, it means that more football fans up and down the country will soon be able to listen to a quality football podcast that just happens to be presented by three women.”

Belinda Doyle, Programme Director at JACK Radio, said: “The Offside Rule is the perfect fit for JACK Radio and is perfectly pitched to complement our existing on-air content.

"Lynsey, Kait and Hayley are world-class presenters who are passionate, engaging and knowledgeable, and we know that our listeners are going to love them.”

The station, which was launched last year, also recently introduced a women’s sports news bulletin, providing daily updates on women’s sporting events and achievements across the country.

JACK Radio is available across the UK on digital radio (DAB+), online at JACKRadio.com and via the JACK Radio app.

*This Friday the Offside team will be Lynsey, Faye Carruthers and Ali Bender.
