WE CAN'T WRITE THE SCORE HERE. NOT THIS WEEK: Jon and Mike took on the challenge of going dark to all media between 3pm and MOTD. Could they make it through the game, and the 5 hours afterwards, without seeing the score and what went down at the Eitihad. Then, with Colin, they watched the programme not knowing what went on. It wasn't fun and everyone was angry, but to say Mike was on Full on Mike Mode is an understatement. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

EMERGENCY POD We weren't going to do a podcast this week. We were going to rest and let our brains think about something other than Watford - it didn't last long.Late on Saturday afternoon, you probably know this, Watford announced that Javi Gracia was leaving the club as head coach. 31 minutes later, we found that he was going to be replaced by an old friend, Enrique 'Quique' Sanchez Flores. That gave us plenty to talk about!  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
