The week on The Sports Agents...

Gabby travels to Newcastle United to speak to players Dan Burn and Amber-Keegan Stobbs, and club icon Shola Ameobi about using the power of the Premier League to help the local community (02:40).

Burn chats about his work with the Foundation, the pressure of 'local hero' status and Eddie Howe's England snub.

Plus... this stadium ain't big enough for the both of us: we look at lots of sports to see if women's football will actually get more fans by sharing the men's stadiums. Is it even feasible long-term? And if not, what's the new plan? That's with ex-England footballer Anita Asante and Host of Counter Pressed podcast, Flo Lloyd-Hughes (13:50).

And Mo Farah chases down a thief - you can guess who won! (23:16)
