Don't think we ever get a resolution on why our previous Sunday game with Citeh was a 15:30 kick-off.
And if our chances of 3 points would have been improved with a regular 16:30 kick-off.
Police advised an earlier kick off so it was moved forward. I do think playing the games at 1 and 330pm on a Sunday would be far more agreeable for away fans, particularly given how sAnd if our chances of 3 points would have been improved with a regular 16:30 kick-off.

Yeah I was listening to that whilst working earlier. It's certainly worth it for anyone with the time. It doesn't necessarily add a great deal in terms of new information, but it does help to frame a few things. Ronaldo did come with Ole's blessing, he tried to get us to sign Haaland twice and we refused both times to try (20m buy out at one point too) - but he doesn't know if he would have come. What that show does do though, for me, is remind that the players themselves are real people too and sometimes it's so easy to forget. Yes paid very well, but still just humans like the rest of us. Ole made a comment at one point about the amount of mental issues he had been dealing with as manager, although he didn't elaborate (& rightly so) but its clear there are some fragile souls in our squad as we have perhaps suspected anyway.
Worth it. If just for the brief interchange between Keano and Jill Scott

The overlap is a really good watch I’ve watched most of them. There’s a really good rapport across all involved. The Keano and Richards specials where they are in a car together are very funny.

We normally go a few times a season-always bloody long day for us coming from near London-mad dash back to Manchester Piccadilly to get the train and get home about ten o’clock!!
Always a great laugh though despite result sometimes
Time before was the Brentford game, -absolutely brilliant when we got the late goals!!

Didn’t know about the captaincy issues, which is pretty shocking. Good to see him raise the point about pundits and how they need to potentially think about what they are saying as players can be impacted.
I do think the Ronaldo signing was the beginning of the end. While it worked in terms of goals the noise around the club and the fact he had to change the way they wanted to defend without the ball.

t managers have to deal with is shocking. Madrid outplayed completely in both legs yet they get through , they are garbage .
Deeply worrying there is not a single decent team in the champs league that would bother city , maybe Arsenal but I think their naivety in Europe will hinder them but hard to see city not retaining the trophy .

This is a major worry. Can’t see Bayern troubling city either. Deeply worrying there is not a single decent team in the champs league that would bother city , maybe Arsenal but I think their naivety in Europe will hinder them but hard to see city not retaining the trophy .

Bayern are weirdly dreadful as they actually have some great players ,Madrid are being carried by 2 players ,Barca are st ,the Italians are doing well in Europe because the opposition is so poor …inter are full of players who were st in the premier league .It’s been poor quality for a while but I think this is a new low .
Diluting it with more teams hasn’t helped but there used to always be 5 or 6 really good teams in it ,now there is one maybe two at a push .

t that they knocked us out of the comp before we'd had time to realise we were in it.
