*Warning: This is probably the most action-packed episode to-date!*Phew, it's been a busy time in Switzerland - firstly, Lugano dispensed of Fabio Celestini after a year in-charge. We discuss the in-tray of his successor, Maurizio Jacobacci.And then, following their 3-0 defeat at the in-form St Gallen, Sion have, predictably, sacked Stephane Henchoz after less than 6 months in charge - it started so well for the former Swiss defender. We discuss who may replace him at Stade Tourbillon.In the league this weekend, Young Boys have lost a game - shock, horror! The unebaten 14-game streak is over, thanks to Servette and the inspirational Sebastien Wuthrich.Could FC Basel capitalise on this and go back to 1st place? No, they couldn't - they drop points at home to draw-specialists Xamax. As your host was in attendance at St Jakob's, we wonder - are FCB too focussed on Europe than the League?In the Challenge League, we discuss Grasshoppers their ability to grind out transactional wins - also, just how did whipping boys Chiasso beat the whippers Lausanne-Sport? Shock, horror part II. We also look back at last week's Schweizer Pokal action, gaze in awe at goals scored from halfway lines, and glance towards this week's Europa League matches.Keep in touch - send a note through to swissballpod@gmail.com, and follow the show on Instagram (@swissballpodcast) Back next week!
