Hi Guys, I'm from Middlesbrough, but I live in Australia and work in the middle of fucking nowhere . I save two weeks worth of episodes, so that I can listen to whilst I'm driving my train . I really love this program, firstly for the fantastic laughs we get from all of you and secondly because it keeps me update with the football around the world. Please keep up the fantastic work, but and a big but , make the episodes longer 😂

I was surprised Kobbie Mainoo wasn't mentioned for either young player or surprise of the season. No one outside of those who keep an eye on uniteds youth teams had heard of the lad and for him to come into not only the worst united team in decades but actually puff his chest out and stand up where other more senior players didnt and then to go on and perform to the levels he did, is remarkable. Like I say I'm not saying he would win but he certainly deserves his plaudits this season

VAR should stay so they can trip themselves further, in front of the people no less with on field explanation. VAR plus semi automated offside tech. I don't want to see what Fergie's refs did to Arsenal. City have also mastered the art of flying these refs to ref their games and then ref their weekend game in England. Fergie couldn't be as influential as he was if he didn't have sth on them. Why should they fear him? In any case their bad spell coincided with Rodri's absence. He's their most important player.
