The Preview Show: Beauty and the Pete

0:00I know you second guessed me like has he still got the weaponry everybody welcome to the football Ramble preview show The Tine and Weird Derby is back It's Friday 12th of December I'm Marcus Speller I'm Luke Moore And I'm Pete Donaldson

0:23Hey it's Friday everybody We made it Come on It's nearly Christmas baby Give us a song Petey It's Christmas Look at me, like I'm somehow involved. Can you help me, please? I'm not involved in that. I'm feeling festive. Do you know St. Nicholas's tomb in Italy is leaking oil? His bones are leaking oil. Has been for like 17 centuries. So he's the answer. Marcus, I know this because Pete sent me a link to it at about midnight last night. Where is his tomb in Italy? I didn't know he had a tomb in Italy. Apparently so. They always do, don't they? In Italy. There's a tomb of Jesus in Japan. Doesn't make any sense.

1:01That really doesn't. But you have the Turin Shroud. That is true. That is true. But I took a bottle of his borne oil, put it in my hair, and I am feeling so festive right now. So when you said it's leaking oil, I thought suddenly it's like, hang on, lads, we might not have to be so reliant on other countries. Yeah, no, it's not a bad scale. It's not a geezer. You're robbing the grave of St. Nicholas in Italy. Yeah, to wash my hair. And the curator of the museum under cloak of darkness is looking around with a lantern. You're in there going, holidays are coming, holidays are coming. Tears the season.

1:35Getting it all over my body. Yeah. How much did it cost? 20 quid. That's not bad. How big's the bottle? Yeah. True. Good question. Yeah. It's a brilliant product. It's a shot glass, isn't it? Yeah, yeah. You get one wash with it. Yeah. But my goodness, you look great. Thanks. So that's the secret. You look so great today because you've rubbed St. Nicholas's bone oil in your hair. And tent. It's very Lakota tribe, if you don't mind me saying. What tribe? The Kota tribe used to rub bear grease from their kills in their hair. Nice. To make it shit that glossy. So our hair will glisten with the blood of the other football podcasts.

2:11Yeah, I'm up for that actually. If you're new to the show, we will talk about football in a minute. No, we won't. If you're new to the show, you've already turned off. Let's be fair. Let's be absolutely fair. Well, what a start to the show, everybody. A bit of Doc Brown and then into Peter talking about his oils that he rubs on his hair and body. I want to talk about the European action last night. Basel 1, Aston Villa 2. Good win for the villains. Is it nice for us to get a little reminder that Jadon Shaqiri is still doing it? I think it is. I think it absolutely is, Luke Moore. A lovely assist for the goal.

2:45He would have been disappointed that he didn't get the ball out of his feet quicker to clear for Aston Villa's opening goal. But ultimately, it doesn't matter. A bit of a sloppy little goal, wasn't it? Yes, it was. Uri Tillemans obviously scored from the edge of the box as is his once and he said after the match he said I don't know why teams are dropping off against us it leaves more space on the edge of the box I like it he says there's other players who have got good shots in their locker it's a cheeky little free kick for me I thought it was a bit arrogant of Uri Tillemans given that's his first goal of the season oh yeah well he may like it he might have a reputation for scoring goals like that but he's not been doing it this year well he did talk about his other teammates who have got good long range efforts in their locker charitable generous they've learned from him probably Evan Gessand who for some reason I always want to call Eddie Gessand I feel like that should be his nickname he jumped on that defensive mix up with quite a lot of speed it was very very quick I mean it was a complete defensive mix up from Basel for those who didn't see it for those who spend their Thursday nights doing something more productive and basically the Basel player tries to clear it and it hits the back of another one of their players which is something that no one wants to see when they're defending and Gessand Before you know it, it's in the net.

3:55It was an amazing predatory strike. I think he deserves a huge amount of credit for it, actually. It was a lovely goal. I completely agree. Their manager, Ludovic Mannion... He looks odd. He looks like the beast from Beauty and the Beast. I think he looks like the beast from Beauty and the Beast crossed with Pete from Gavin and Stacey. Nice. Yeah, I'll take that. Same kind of facial shape. Because you look at him as a younger man and he looks a bit like... Like all of us. He looks slimmer. He looks slimmer. He's got very, very blonde hair, but then he's John Hartsoned out a bit. His Wikipedia page is...

4:28John Hartsoned out. Haven't we all? Haven't we all? He's John Hartson in The Harvester. He's John Hartson in The Hitching Harvester. Oh, man. Yeah. His Wikipedia page looks very different to how he currently looks. Yeah, I think that's fair. I don't want to be rude. I think that's absolutely fine. I don't think it's fair for us to comment too much on a man's physical appearance because, you know, like all of us, he's doing his best. Yes. But he does look very different. Watching him celebrate a Varkol did look funny. He was really, really angry about literally a binary offside decision done by a computer.

4:59They've shown you what's happened. He's offside. I know we can all get upset about VAR. But you're right. He looked like he was complaining to the fourth official, though, which is strange. It's like he's just seen his favourite candlestick turn into a Frenchman. Furious. He said to the VAR official, try the grey stuff, it's delicious. Don't believe me, ask the dishes. Both a little scared. Both the person who was offside and the person who was the attending defender. My quote is Lumiere not the Beast so it doesn't really make any sense that he would be quoting Lumiere Fine The Candle He just wants a cup of tea but his tea is Angela Lansbury Angela Lansbury did that Beauty and the Beast song in the first take apparently Nice It's the first take It wins in all competitions though Marcus It's good at it Yeah Are you going to shave your hair finally?

5:43To the man who refuses to cut his hair until Man United win five on the trot They've won it I know We should all shave our hair He should become a Villa fan shouldn't he I mean my goodness he'd have no hair left pieces you're absolutely bloody right they've been magnificent it's their best run of wins since can you guess the last time they won this many games in the run Mitrovic was playing not Mitrovic have a guess Milosevic was playing no it would be before that have a guess just give me a year 1975 no the early 80s no it is it's 1982 it's not the answer is actually 1914 whoa that's how good they've been and the Premier League has never been more and it's a really competitive league they're playing in at the moment on the domestic level but But seeing like Morgan Rodgers come off the bench, it's like they've got some footballers, haven't they?

6:27Well, they do, yeah. And he rotated the squad a bit in this game, of course, which is fair enough. I mean, Villa, they are third in the Europa League phase. Michelin, incredibly, a second. And Lyon, Olympic Lyonnais are first. Andy Brassel's guys. Yeah, they are Andy Brassel's guys, absolutely. Probably got Spurs them on every week, I reckon. I reckon so. I reckon so. They've got a couple of fixtures left in the competition. Fenerbahce and RB Salzburg. So, I mean, 12th and RB Salzburg quite enjoyably are 31st. So, I mean, it would be, it's a tricky one, isn't it? And it's more tricky for Forrest.

7:10We'll get onto them in a moment because Villa are going very, very well. So he can make changes and they still have that momentum, which is ideal. You've got to be mindful of resting players, but at the same time you don't want to rest players to the detriment of results and then you slip out of the top eight and then you get that extra couple of games in the playoff which takes away the whole idea of resting players I think that's unrealistic for Villa though I think so I would have thought so now and he also was able to when they went 2-1 up last night even though I guess the game was technically still in the balance he was able to bring off Sancho, Inanna and Buendia Buendia's work for the second goal was amazing by the way really really good like great strength and amazing presence of mind and he also brought off Matty Cash just after half time so he was able to he was able to rest players anyway I also think one thing's really indicative is when Villa scored the first goal did you see how much Emery loved it he was celebrating so much you thought to yourself he fancies his competition big time I think he fancies all of it which is again sorry Villa fans to sound really really boring but those handful of games at the start of the season you weren't really expecting this to the point of according to Transfermarkt they are officially Europe's most informed team.

8:21It will be, yeah. They are. It will be. If they win the Europa League and they are... And the Premier League. Well, and are run close at second in the Premier League. Is there more spots for English teams? Well, I don't know, Peter, but I would agree with the point that it would go down as a good season. I like that they're Europe's most informed team according to Transfermarkt. Marked. Because I consider Transfermarkt Europe's most informed website. Do you? Nice. They've been doing it for a long time. It's a smashing little website. It's a lovely little website. Very info rich. Limited agency stuff though.

8:55Massive old website. You've got to have a lot of data for all those datas. Absolutely. Did you see, it's absolutely ideal if you've got a little bit of a blind spot like I have between certain players and whether they're left or right backs and certain players that you don't know that well whether they're left or right footed. Tino Levento. Gives you that information. Which side does he play on? Exactly. It can be anything. Jed Spence, no idea. Can be anything. He'd pop up anywhere. Did you see Roger Federer at the game? Did. Great stuff. Great to see him. I don't like tennis, but I do like Roger Federer.

9:20Yeah. Well, he's not involved anymore, so did you like him? Exactly. Yeah, he's not. He's not. He's blurring him. He's like him. Oi, welcome back into the fold, Roger. Great to hear about your retirement. Back on the wagon. Yeah, yeah. He's starting to look a little bit more evil now, though. What do you think? I think as his face gets older, because he's always been quite implacable and quite inscrutable and classy as an operator, his facial expressions, of course, as a young man, he was a very tempestuous tennis player wasn't he because he got older he was a little shit he wasn't that bad he used to smash records rackets and all sorts he did yeah I'm looking around the room he was rude about our Andy Murray you don't need to look around the room you can just trust me oh you're right it is our Andy Murray we're all British citizens but now he's now he's are we not I've given you a pause for that so people can respond to you directly drink it in drink it in and now he's a classier kind of guy but as he gets older I think he's face is starting to go a little bit more Bonvillant.

10:17You can see it happening. I think the eyebrows are going to take over. Very severe eyebrows. Very severe. He doesn't have to sort of get them threaded for important airports watch adverts. No, he doesn't. Well, good to have that clarified. Aston Villa travel to West Ham on Sunday, 2pm. West Ham will do that dropping off thing against Aston Villa. Silliams will love it. Silliams will be thinking. Kicky hard, hard thing. Exactly, right, lads. Shoot on sight. Shoot on sight. I'll have my second goal of the season, please. Or, me mates will do it. Yeah. There is that. Well, he's up and running now.

10:45But it's the kind of thing, though, they're on such a good run. It would be like a way to West Ham and they stuff it up or, you know, whatever. I feel like every club that's doing really well at the moment is playing West Ham at the weekend. And it's like, another three points, please. Liverpool, who aren't doing very well, play West Ham and then obviously just beat them. I do think that the one thing about the Premier League is that, it used to be constantly reminded, is that from game to game, with the exception of Wolves, it's really hard to predict. Yes, that's true. West Ham have drawn their last two games.

11:15So there's a corner. Green shoots. Let's climb on that big beanstalk, shall we? Utrecht 1, Nottingham Forest 2. Good win for the Forest in Europe. Their first away win in European competitions in 1995. You have to go back to that man. Go on, Forest. Frankie Clark. Not very nice. These records involving Nottingham Forest in Europe always seem really severe because they simply haven't been in Europe for such a long time. They haven't had the opportunity. Admittedly, they haven't given themselves the opportunity, but they haven't had the opportunity. Well, the stat really should be this is their last win in Europe since about two months ago.

11:52Would the Anglo-Italian Cup still have been a thing to massage those figures? I'm not sure they would have played in that much. I've seen Pompey in the Anglo-Italian Cup a few times. I don't think they would. I mean, it's not classified as a major competition. There's no way that can happen. Oh, major now, is it? Yeah, it is. You can't just say, this is a competition between just England and Italy. can we officially sanction it by UEFA no it's not absolutely so it wasn't UEFA sanctioned then I wouldn't have thought so I wouldn't have thought so Peter interesting but they won this one though they did Igor Jesus came off the bench to get a a late winner they should have put this one away in the first half they should have done Sean Edeich said as much didn't he but look they got the win that's the main thing but you're correct that when it's the manner of the performance when van der Hoon scores that equaliser you think oh dear oh dear Because if you look at the table, Forrest are not...

12:44You'd fancy them very, very much to qualify for the next phase, of course. But again, you don't really want that little playoff business, do you? It's helpful. I think Roma and Stuttgart are playing one another, so they could probably get away with one win rather than two. But it all depends. Well, they've got to go to... I think they're off to Braga, who are seventh. We have a Braga ahead of them in the table and doing okay. And then they've also got to play Ferenc Varos, who have done incredibly well in this competition. you know, one four drawn two. So they're playing two sides who are sixth and seventh.

13:13They're both above them in the table. So this was kind of like, I'd say a must win, but it was an important win, I think. If you've got ambitions to get in that top eight, which surely they do, because they're only a couple of points off it, that would be very, very helpful. So a good win for Forrest, but yeah, a little bit profligate in front of goal. Sean Lee Dinesh was saying that too. But a win's a win's a win, Peter. It was, yeah. It was. You can't deny that. Can I make a couple of points about Igor Jesus? Do you like his celebration? I enjoyed it. We were having a bit of a debate in the office earlier whether it was a Dragon Ball Z celebration or a Hadouken.

13:48I would like it to be a Hadouken. I don't really know what Dragon Ball Z is. Generationally, it probably would be a Dragon Ball Z. Yeah, because he's younger. But it looked like a Hadouken. What is Dragon Ball Z? I don't know, Peter. What is it? It's like a Japanese... Just a load of fellas flying around in the sky. Is it an anime? Is it an anime? Yeah. It's an anime. Just a load of fellas flying around. The second point I'd like to make is, do you know how many separate competitions Igor Jesus has competed in in the last calendar year? Four. The answer is ten. Oh. Oh. Yeah. Because he's played in the League Cup, the Brasilerao, Brazil.

14:21Anglo-Italian. The FIFA Club World Cup, the Europa League, the Premier League, World Cup qualification, the Brazilian Cup, Libertadores. Oh. And I was at nine. Hang on, it might be nine. And played in the international friendly for Brazil. 2, 4, 6, 8 That's 10 And Europa League Yeah I said Europa League He's like a session drummer isn't he? Yeah For some reason I only had 9 on my fingers I don't know why Well goodness knows But we've got confirmation Oh speaking of that Did you know Dan Burns Only got 4 fingers on one hand? Yeah Is that a well known thing? I didn't know that Yeah I saw this yesterday Do you want me to put this In the Newcastle Sunderland chat later?

14:53I think so yeah Okay well Little teaser trailer for you We'll talk about that in detail Pete knows all about it By the sounds of it More on that later We've definitely spoken about it On the show definitely Have we? I don't remember that do you? no he's the host yeah I sometimes host must have been one of those ones that Pete hosted on his own right my wrongs what's that Luke? yeah you think I'm brilliant yeah brilliant was it a footballers with four fingers special? how many is there? yeah I don't know I sometimes keep talking when the mics have been switched off yeah well anyway Forest they got their win and it was the first time in a long time they won away from home it was good to see like their forward players producing I think at a really important time Yeah, because I think Jesus is a good player and he hasn't scored that many goals.

15:35But he needed something. He did. Well, they needed something and they got it because that would have been a bit of a signal if they hadn't won that game. Absolutely. You see that Utrecht fan getting very upset and throwing his hat on the floor? Yeah. Nice throwback to a bygone era. Yeah, I don't... It's like someone's stolen something from your shop in the deep south and they're in their Cadillac and they drive off to the horizon. You shake your fist. Yeah, you shake your fist and you throw your hat on the floor. Yeah. So people don't express frustration that way anymore. No. I guess I've just never been a hat wearer and I'd always wanted to be able to throw my hat on the floor.

16:09Or to respectively take it off and put it on my heart when a hearse goes by. When you're at the weekend, you're always dressed like Peaky Blinders. They're in Marcus, isn't they? Yeah. You've got the haircut. Was it the... Were there four Peaky Blinders? I want to say... Oh... Afghanis, I think. Pardon? Afghanistan guys. In Afghanistan. They got arrested. They got arrested because they were dressed like the Peaky Blinders and they were re-educated. That shows you the impact of the show. I know. The cultural impact of the show. Blimey. Give that a kookarory, will you? I think it was Afghanistan.

16:40It was somewhere where... They've got bigger problems, haven't they? I was about to say, one of the most embarrassing ways you can get arrested. I know, can you imagine? Think of what you want of the Peaky Blinders. Terrible. Blimey, right. But you are definitely the Peaky Blinder of the show. Yeah, well, I'll happily have to take that on my chin. Happily? I'll take that on my hat. You're prepared to take it? They're prepared to take it. Well, Nottingham Forest host Tottenham on Sunday at 2pm. Ange, post a conclude derby. He's doing very well to get that. Yeah. I mean, he doesn't need much for us to tag a game like this in ludicrous fashion, does it?

17:14What's Big Ange doing these days? He's waiting for the Celtic jump. Which will probably come up pretty soon. Any minute now, Ange. Yeah, they got gubs at home by Roma. They did. The two Glasgow sides have been... I mean, Rangers are particularly bad, but I think we've come to expect it from them at Celtic. Liam Scales, what a header that was. It was a beauty, wasn't it? Yeah, and Evan Ferguson had a nice night as well. He did, absolutely. Martin O 'Neill should not have been that good though. In comparison, when Martin O 'Neill went there, at least the renames him Wilfried O 'Nancy. Yeah, that's what he does.

17:45When O 'Neill went there, I was thinking to myself, cool, that is a bit desperate. I wonder how, and then he just obviously steadies the ship and that does really well. But fortunately, Wilfried O 'Nancy was in charge for when the Gorgie Boys turned up at Paradise. I know. Take the three points Thank you They had a lovely time In paradise didn't they And now that O 'Neill's gone The title race is back on It is Mad absolutely mad The title race is back on And Hearts are the only team That seem to want it Well Yeah Absolutely yes But it was I mean that If you haven't seen it That own goal that Scales scored It's a beauty of a header It was an absolute bullet Off the bar It was like a complete Role reversal He was under pressure From the forwards Yes And headed it into his own net Absolutely put it away Bullet Very very bad Total bullet Good win for Roma though Always nice to hear from them And it's great to see There's a real thrill About seeing a player You're familiar with Going abroad And he comes to the UK In European competition And just scores He scores a couple Didn't he One of them was a great Poachers goal And it's just a nice Little Romano It's great to see It's never been more Popular that move Has it really No exactly Yeah But you remember Obviously Ferguson When he was scoring a few And turning heads at Brighton Yeah And everyone was Oh hello No, he's a proper player, this lad.

18:58And he was on loan and went around a bit. So he had injuries, a bad injury. Yeah, he did. But to be at a proper club like, I mean, a huge club like Roma and doing that, it's very, very good. But of course, he's not currently the best striker in Italy, you would say, because Jamie Vardy's recently won Serie A player of the month for November. It's just amazing. He absolutely loves it. It's amazing. Come on. Has he scored that many? I just feel like that. Are they not just giving that out because it's a bit of a story? There's been a lot of chat, Peter, about who's going to be numbered. Luke, don't get in the way of this.

19:25there's been a lot of chat recently about who might be England's number two behind Harry Kane right well he probably just alluded number twos after all that Red Bull we've forgotten all about Vardy we have forgotten all about Vardy can I also add fuel to that add to this I'll put up with a lot from you but I will not put up with you questioning the integrity of Italian football are you going to have got my Red Bull consumption he scored two goals away at Bologna at the start well I think this is for November though isn't it yeah so yeah he scored the goal against Juventus, I think. It's early days.

19:59It's 39 next month. It's class. It's just brilliant. Lovely. I think every structure go out there. Every single one. Every single one. There's loads of work out there. Get involved and you'll have a lovely old time. Now, before we go for a break, there was quite a lot of chat yesterday and perhaps the day before. And it's been going on for a while, but in particular yesterday where FIFA had announced the costs of tickets at the World Cup. Now, we knew this was going to be quite a pricey World Cup, but some people are saying that if you actually add it all up, the cost of the tickets is like five times the amount of what it was in Qatar.

20:38So we'll take England as the reference point here. So if you want to go and see England versus Croatia in Dallas, the cheapest ticket for that game is$265 for a group stage game. the cheapest the cheapest ticket in total to go and see England in the group is$220 that's for Ghana and Panama and if you wanted to go and follow England all the way through the tournament again the round of 32 and round of 16 it's$235 $295 the quarterfinal though and we know it gets tasty at the quarterfinal but again cheapest ticket $680 is it that tasty is it that tasty cheapest cheapest because if you want to go and see them in the quarterfinal presuming they get there and I know that's very presumptuous and people are saying shut up you wanker fine but I'm doing this for the ticket chat here.

21:25If you want to go and see England or whoever it is in that quarterfinal, $680,$1 ,015. That's not the most expensive. Why did they put the$1 ,000 in there?

21:38$1 ,440. Semi-final. Guess what? It's more. But there is good news though because if you want to see your team play in what's dubbed as the bronze final, the third place playoff, The cheapest tickets 455 bastards They have well misunderstood How important that picture is And the cheapest ticket for the World Cup final Is what, three grand or something? $4 ,185 That's the cheapest I mean, tickets nowadays No, no, no, no That is I'm saying People might say But the final Even for the final That is like four times the amount Of what it would normally be But tickets And then presumably There's kind of like The price The resale pricing And all that stuff On top of that and booking fees.

22:21Well, there's some depth in the detail as well because the way that FIFA have suggested this works when you buy tickets through your national FA is they're suggesting that you have to buy tickets for every game. Yes. And if your team gets knocked out, they'll refund you minus their admin fee. Outrageous. Have that money resting in their account for a month. So it's basically essentially a cabal. It's a complete fit. It's a fit job. It's a fix-up. But it's genuinely outrageous. and then we've got people that's the thing so what's really interesting to me as well is obviously it's outrageous you're right in what you say it's not a massively controversial thing for us here to say that's outrageous everyone's saying the same thing what's really interesting and they're right what's really interesting I think is looking at someone like Rio Ferdinand in the rear view mirror of doing his presenting for the World Cup draw yeah he won't be able to afford it either and if even he can't afford it there's a real problem no but isn't it interesting I think the way these things work He's obviously desperate to do a World Cup draw.

23:21Massive for his personal brand. Massive for him as an individual and the rest of it. But there's clearly a situation here where, as part of that gig, he has to toe the line. Some of the interviews he's been giving around this have been totally risible. They have been risible. He sits there in interviews and says, I'm a man of the people. I've told Free Fire I want to do this and do that and do the other. And a journalist, I think it was Dan Rowan at the BBC, kind of challenges him on it. And he's like shuffling in his seat saying, well, you know, fans are always the most important thing. just giving these platitudes out, but actually he's now just become a total shill for the sports-washing, money-grabbing entity that FIFA is.

23:58And it's mad that we sat here 10 years ago, whenever it was, and we would talk about how corrupt and how problematic the bladder regime at FIFA was. Looks quaint now compared to this. Yeah, bring him back. It's properly sinister now. But he was a shill for like Sports Direct back in the day. Do you remember all that stuff about Mike Ashley? He was involved in, I think he had a... a clothing deal yeah he had a clothing deal on Mike Ashley and every time he was on television he was defending Mike Ashley and it's all just to be honest with you look I agree with your points but ultimately the problem here is not Rio Ferdinand the problem here he's a symptom of it fine yeah but the problem here is FIFA like it's I can't believe that and people say if you're can you believe it can you not believe it no no but that's and I was about to expand on that because ticket prices in the Premier League everywhere there's always chat about ticket prices and that will never really go away and whatever you think on that, rightly or wrongly, there's always a bit of chat there because you've always got to be careful with that.

24:54This is genuinely outrageous. I implore you to check the ticket prices of previous World Cups because that, what I've just read out there, is outrageous. Absolutely outrageous. I can only compare seeing at the first fixture, the Dallas Stadium. I watched WrestleMania there two years ago, maybe three years ago. and it was broadly about the same amount of money for an okay seat but you get five hours of entertainment when in that you get one you know that's the main thing it's like watching the whole world cup in microcosm but that is uh i mean that's absolutely atrocious stuff but is that not broadly how expensive tickets are nowadays especially in america you look at the difference between how much um the same sporting event in like riyadh would be next to somewhere in america and the dollar is just in that situation there and ticketmaster take all their money and is this not broadly how expensive big ticket items are nowadays?

25:50So people will say that and go, but that's the problem with these big... To give you an example, so that England-Croatia game, right, $265, so a quick currency converter says that's about£198. In Qatar, group stage fixtures had set prices and the cheapest was£68.50. You also need to take into account the added way that they now administer these tickets. Yeah. Because FIFA now are saying... So, for example, if you go... you used your WrestleMania example, right? I went to go watch an NBA game last year and there's resale tickets available on places like Vivid Seats and stuff for pretty good value.

26:25I mean, I've just looked now actually and there's tickets available for NBA games for like 30 quid because people have said, oh, I can't go anymore. I need to resell them. You can't do that with World Cup. No. You have to go through FIFA. You have to pay the admin fee. They take a bit of that as well. That's entertainment in microcosms. Yeah, because we had the whole thing with dynamic price with Oasis in the summer in this country. What it seems to me is the position of these people who own these entertainment rights or whatever sector they're in is they will just push and push and get away with whatever they can.

26:55And we'll pay it. Until the groundswell is so impactful back. They'll go, oh yeah, sorry about that. And they'll row back a bit. It would be interesting to see a FIFA do that. You're an England fan. If they're playing in the semi-final, you'll pay whatever it pays to count there. I absolutely won't. No, genuinely. Also, people can't afford to. But that's the other thing, you know. People will go into debt. People will put it on credit cards. people will ruin their lives for the chance of that I think you're a different man than me though Marcus well indeed you absolutely will do that for a lot of England fans who do travel a lot and England always have a big support you've got the whole obviously it's more expensive to get to North America but that's fine it's outside of Europe it's played outside of Europe the accommodation will be astronomical can you imagine the hotel prices in Dallas on the first match the travel within that continent and so on but honestly the prices as I say the cheapest ticket for the final is over$4 ,000 it's mad for Qatar I think the cheapest ticket for the final was I think 450 pounds which is a lot of money you're not going to be able to get in anyway because of the restrictive visa Esther requirements I'll be fine you'll be alright I haven't tweeted anything bad for the last five years they'll look at Mark as they go he's a bit right wing I've been pushed through to the front of the line I think you'll find I've received an invitation in that one of Trump's golden visas oh dear as he wants alright coming up after this there's pre-AFCON chaos in Cameroon

28:31I'm going Messiness right because he hates when people leave stuff a bit and he goes come on man like that and the fact that I don't moisturise my knees you've got to moisturise you've got to moisturise if it's dry you've got to put a bit cream on you've got to put cocoa butter on a gaifi clay bank you know what I mean well about the football ever everybody nice chat from John McGinn and Ollie Watkins there now Shelbourne 0 Crystal Palace 3 3 first half goals did the job for Palace lovely stuff that's the end of that easy peasy really Peter for those Palace people yeah I mean you sort of think maybe if they just slammed a few more past it would help with the goal difference because it's a good opportunity to start against a bit of a minor disrespectful disrespectful Marcus I find that disrespectful I don't care I don't care I'm a Palace man you found that disrespectful I mean Pete is right they should have scored more yeah there was an amazing passage of play I can't quite remember who it was someone hit both posts oh it was Essay Essay yes right they went across the line and the goalkeeper just went over there picked it up and then carried on.

29:42It was an extraordinary moment. I don't remember the last time I've seen someone hit both posts and the ball go along the line that way. There was also an amazing moment where Shelbourne fans got bored of their own Tifo and started ripping holes in it so they could see what was happening. I mean, that's terrible. I mean, how long does a Tifo actually stay up before it gets pulled down? I just feel like there should be an understanding for everyone in that end. This is what's going to happen. We'll gather it up before kickoff. Don't start fucking Stanley knifing it. It was like these little heads just start popping up in the middle of it.

30:12It was amazing. I mean, look, if it was some kind of claustrophobia thing and they sat in a seat, they didn't need to be sat in, I don't know, but you shouldn't be. You shouldn't be able to tear into a T4. It was a fairly poor T4 as well. It was pretty standard stuff, wasn't it? Yeah, it was very kind of monochrome. It was a bed sheet version of a T4. It wasn't the Real Madrid. Maybe that, obviously, Real Madrid perhaps have slightly different resources, but Real Madrid's one against Man City was very good in comparison. There was a very good Marseille Newcastle one. Really, really good. It was just up and up.

30:39But you went under it. No, I wasn't under it. They didn't bring one on the new castle site. You could see the splendor. When I was at PSG Atletico Madrid, the PSG fans impromptu pulled out a massive free Palestine Tifo. Nice. It was absolutely huge. It stayed up for ages. I was in the press box with Brasso one night. Tagged me in, didn't they? And everyone in the press box was like, oh, your way for won't like that. The cameras won't be showing that. No, exactly. But there we go. So that Tifo was a poor Tifo. So maybe those fans were right to cut holes in it and look out like little kind of periscopes little periscopes pop in your head hello I did quite enjoy that the little heads popping up yeah it was funny I want to see the game yeah I love blackhead removal videos online so remind me of that a little bit they held up a banner saying real football real passion fuck the Premier League yeah oh you're odd you'd love a bit of it yeah which Premier League team do you will support you'd love these ticket you'd love these ticket prices you'd love these ticket prices they all do support a Premier League team do they Marcus is that your position I would imagine most of them would do after Marcus Speller but for that one night only it's a night off the Premier League so fuck them yeah fair enough though you've got to get a little dig in there I respect it Crystal Palace hosts Man City on Sunday second versus fourth in that thing we call the Premier League I think this is I think this is the most fascinating Premier League fixture of the weekend right because it's a really tough place to go Better than the Tynan way down?

32:07That's definitely the other one that stands out, I would say. If I was going to give them both equal billing, I would. But this is a fascinating one. I do agree, Luke. Yeah, I think we'll find out a lot about Man City in this game. I've suspected for a while now they can be bullied. Crystal Palace are a pretty high-octane, quite physical team, who are brilliant on their day. This is a real stern test for City. Particularly when you take into account their... We want to know about their Premier League title credentials, right? Well, we do. And Arsenal are at home to Wolves, so they'll almost certainly win.

32:39So this is a really big couple of days for City in the context of the title race. Yeah, well, yeah, Arsenal have got their Wolves voucher this weekend. They're waiving it right now. Oh, they are. Great shame for Palace, though, in that Daniel Munoz is injured and he's out for a little while. He needs an operation, doesn't he? Yeah, that's a big blow for them. It is a big blow for them. It's a bit of a shame. Ismail Sar, not sure if he's going to return for the game on the weekend. Same with Jean-Philippe Mateta. There's a chance, there's a chance. The Munoz one, though, is like, as long as that lasts as long as January so he doesn't got to Real Madrid.

33:11That would be quite helpful. They want another right back. Yeah, it's the other one, yeah. Yeah, that's true. Well, I agree it's an intriguing game. Palace, you know how they're going to set up and Man City are definitely better going forward than they are at the back. Although, they haven't, I mean, look, I've made my point a number of times on here. You do not rate Manchester City as a title challenger, do you? Well, I think that they are the closest to Arsenal unless Villa can do something. I was going to say that they are a bit shaky at the back man city, which I, again, a lot of that is probably from what I saw at Craven Cottage on that mad evening.

33:45They've only conceded 16 goals in the Premier League. There's not that many sides. I mean, Arsenal, Villa, Palace and Chelsea are the only sides that have conceded fewer. So, they're not shocking. Is it a bit of a recency bias because they've shipped them so recently? Possibly. Maybe I'm thinking that. Just a few times I've seen. There's just a feeling they can be got at, isn't there? Yeah, But they are the top scorers in the league. So you can't ignore that either. Again, a lot of that was at Craven Cottage. I mean, Phil Foden's in sparkling form of late among the goals and so on. Doc, who's obviously been brilliant this season and we all know about Erling Haaland.

34:21So again, attacking-wise, what I'm wanting Pep to do is basically adopt a bit of a Kevin Keegan approach here. Right, yeah. I think he is doing that. Well, maybe he is. Maybe that's what they're beginning to slip into, which I'm all for, of course. Erling Haaland revealed that his dad tried to force him to become a golfer quite recently. I'd love to know how long he is off the tee. I'm sure he's very good. You've just taken up golf, haven't you? I have. Is it Haaland-esque? No, it's absolutely not. I imagine Haaland is probably a pretty good golfer still anyway, and I imagine he can absolutely bang it off the tee.

34:53I'd love to know what his numbers are. All right. Do you take 354 strikes to get it into the hall, like Erling Haaland's goals, professional goals? No, I don't think I do. I don't think I do. he's also left handed I think as a golfer I think I'm right in St. Harvin does that change things it just makes it makes it look better have you got reverse golf clubs like Kurt Cobain yeah exactly that's all I know because I've seen him holding the club what is the percentage I'm thinking about opening a club shop how many clubs do you have to buy for each is it like a percentage sort of thing what do you mean have you got that in left do you go no I haven't got it in left don't mean anything I don't know but what I do know is at the driving range near me there are 20 booths to hit from and only two of them are left-handed boobs.

35:35Nice. So I guess it's probably 10%. You're left-handed, aren't you? I don't know. But you're left-handed with writing. Yeah. So you've never thrown a golf club before. No, I have. No, I think I'm normal. Because you play air guitar. Normal. Because Marcus plays air guitar left-handed and guitar right-handed. That's correct. And he writes left-handed. That's correct. I throw with my right. There we go. That's interesting. It's a conundrum spot. That is. He is. Try and put him down. You can't. No, you can't. Ultimately, I'll tell them. have you got any centrist golf clubs? Have you got any ambidextrous ones?

36:03He's doing it like a crow case. Like street hockey, just any other side. I don't mind at all. Chelsea hosting Everton and David Moyes on Saturday at 3pm. Everton would jump above Chelsea with a win. I've detected, Marcus, that you are quite supportive of what Everton are doing at the moment. You're quite positive about them. Four wins in the last five. Chelsea have only won twice in that time. I'm thinking in this battle of the blues, as we all know this fixture to be called. I think Everton, well, as I'm saying that, David Moyes is going to one of the better sides in the league and he hasn't got a good record.

36:38However, has that winner Old Trafford, has that blown the doors wide open? Or is he still thinking about it? Yeah. Or are people thinking Old Trafford doesn't count anymore? I don't know. Nothing sums up the earlier mention of the unpredictability of the Premier League like Chelsea. Are they going to win? Don't know. Are they going to lose? Don't know. Are they going to get someone sent off? Probably. But when you say, I sort of agree. I'm right or left-handed. When you say I'm predictable, I sort of understand your point, but they are fifth. Yeah. So they are, it's more predictable that they win than they lose.

37:06I mean, for now, I would say that's probably fair, yeah. I mean, and they went on that run where they were pretty good, but since then, I mean, the last few games, they've not won. They've won in three. Yeah, and they also lost to Atalanta away in the Champions League. They did. So you never really know. I think they kind of ebb and flow as a team. Is it a big enough game for them all to get up for it, is what you're saying? Yeah, that's a really good question. But Moyes has a tendency to, when he goes to these bigger sides, it's just kind of like, ah, do you know what? Let's just sit and soak up the pressure.

37:32They don't score a lot of goals. No, they don't. Brighton's on 25 goals. They're above Brighton in the table and they've scored 17. It's like, it's a little bit. They've scored 18. They're 17 against, yeah. And that's always the thing with Moyes. It's that attacking edge that they don't tend to have his sides when they go away to the bigger teams, is it? Well, against Manchester United, they go down to 10 men. So it's kind of like, the subject is forced. and then Dewsbury Hall scores a great goal and then Manchester United are Manchester United so such a good match if we watch that again we enjoyed it but your insistence we've had this little run in battle all season so far so let's keep it up go on your insistence on mentioning the Premier League table all the time means that I feel like I'm obliged to say to you in response that yes they are fifth but they're three points off twelfth because that's how the table is at the moment this time of the year so you're talking about Chelsea yeah so Chelsea at the end of this game I mean if the results go a certain way they could be like way down like 9th or 10th or something yeah they could but I don't think they will be I think that Chelsea will finish in the top 6 this season people might say well they need to be winning matches like this if they need to if they want to be in that position well and indeed they do indeed they do now it would be very generous to call this game the Samuel Eto 'o derby I completely forgot he even played for Everton yeah he did how long for?

38:50not very long it's a good job it wasn't a push the ding button yeah it wasn't a my buddy art category because I never would have got ever to hear. Yeah, well, it's a way to segue into a little bit of AFCON chat. And when I say AFCON chat, I'm specifically talking about Cameroon. So Samuel Lettel, of course, is the president of the Cameroon FA and he's currently, it's fair to say, at war with the former slash current national team manager, Mark Briss, who's refusing to be sacked. Yes. I love that. He's got all his supporters taking over the capital. Brilliant. I like, sometimes in like TV shows, people say, you can't sack me, I quit.

39:23but he's just not done the quit bit. You can't sack me because I'm not quitting. He's just walked out the room. Obviously, AFCON is about to begin. It's imminent. The Cameroon FA, led by Etu, released the 28-man squad for the tournament in which they listed a new manager, David Pagu. And Pagu is now officially listed on FIFA's website and held a press conference last week. However, Mark Brice is refusing to accept his dismissal and has released his own squad for the tournament. Nice, like a director's club. They've got to play each other. It's like a WWE I quit match. But Briss, he's smelling a rat here.

40:05Because in his squad, he's got... So old Mark has got Andrean Arna, Vincent Abubakar in there, and Chippo Moting, your friend of mine. Whereas Pagu's not got those three in. and Briss is saying that he doesn't want Abubakar in there because Etu's worried he thinks he's worried because he's going to take the all-time goal scoring record off him for Cameroon so that's a conspiracy so he's saying that's a conspiracy clearly Etu's not saying that and whatnot but that's what the manager thinks anyway he said also that Etu has never liked him as soon as he walked in the door at the start of the job you know he was having a go at him blah blah blah whatever but it's an utterly intriguing situation right on the eve of the tournament so the other thing The other bit of context to this, re-Mark Briss, is that, and I wouldn't be an expert in African football and you obviously need to go elsewhere to get the proper intel on this, but just from a football fan point of view, it's very difficult to discern how Mark Briss is even in this job anyway because he is a manager who has never managed a big club.

41:09The only thing he's ever won as a manager is the Belgian Cup in 2005, which is 20 years ago now. If you look at his CV, it is basically chock full of teams that you've never heard of. And yet somehow he's managing Cameroon and has been for 18 months or so, who are, lest we forget, one of the biggest nations football-wise in Africa, certainly one of the bigger nations in world football for that part of the world. It's remarkable to me how he's even got the job. I have no idea how that happened to be the case. Yeah. He said in a TV interview, as long as there is no signed note from the presidency of the Republic appointing David Pag, who is the coach of the Indomitable Lions, in the eyes of the state of Cameroon.

41:51Mr. Mark Briss, that's me, remains. This is not up for discussion and it has been this way in Cameroon for at least 30 years. Someone's updated this Wikipedia page to say that he's no longer the manager. Yeah. Who knows? I mean, he's just laid down the law there. Just a signed note. That's all you need is go away. Which basically means a payoff, doesn't it? Let's be fair. It basically means give me the money and I'll go. Yeah. I plan to go and watch Belgium in the World Cup. I'll need a payoff. Yeah. Yeah, the only thing I'd like more than managing Cameroon and the AFCONs, they're a lovely fat check.

42:21It's one of those two things, guys. Take your choice. Yeah, all right. Coming up after this, the Tide and Weir Derby is back in the Premier League.

42:39Welcome back, everybody. Right then, Tide and Weir Derby time, Peter. Newcastle United are off to Sunderland on Sunday. And 2 o 'clock kick-off. Are you going, Peter? I'm not. I'm going to watch you at the pub. And I'm going to have a good time. Well, let's... The football team will decide whether you're going to have a good time or not. Well, I wouldn't disagree because I'm off to the pink toothbrush and really for a Sunday afternoon indie disco straight afterwards. You know what? No, that's a good idea. When are you going to stop this? When are you going to stop this? I think that's a good idea because if Newcastle United lose the game, you've got the immediate pick-me-up of the disco.

43:13and if they win the game my goodness he will sing those pulp choruses just that little bit louder I'll be demanding so who's the gang going with you? probably on his own just the neighbours is it going with the neighbours? me and the neighbours see I think he's folded his arms he's getting very defensive about his indie club credentials no I think he's getting very proud I'm sick of my stomach like I usually do in nightclubs is that your move? what are your power moves? what are your other power moves in the nightclub? indie club I mean he's always in the dark corners isn't he? He buys everyone a drink.

43:43I'm always in the dark corner. I always buy everyone a drink. I dance in the middle of the dance floor having a good time. Right, you've all got a drink. I'm off to my corner. Anyone want to join me, they care. To surveil. So you walk straight, as soon as you get over the threshold of the indie club, it's the stomach in. Stomach in, chest out, on your marks, let's set, go. Double check you've got the built-up heels on. In the words of Jarvis Cocker in that pulp song. Yeah. I wouldn't know. Telling everybody you're Luke Moore's mate. Exactly, yeah. That opens doors, doesn't it? It doesn't work.

44:12Well, it's the first time we're Derby in the Premise since 2016. The two clubs did meet in the FA Cup last year. Newcastle won 3-0, of course. They were, and it's exactly that fixture that informed my idea that they were going to get relegated this season because they were very young, but they're a very different proposition now and very organised. And yeah, I honestly don't think anybody I know in my life who are like season ticket holders of Newcastle United, they hate Derby because it's just too stressful. Can you get Schola back? but can we get Ryan Taylor off the wall please back I think that's probably quite a common theme I know Jim hates the North London derby because of the stress factor I'm the same with Portsmouth Southampton do you think though that Portsmouth Southampton certainly now more level pegging obviously Newcastle are the bigger side because of what they've done recently there's no excuse for Newcastle they should be defeating Sunderland yeah but so therefore do you think it's the sort of smaller team it's more kind of exciting it's like oh yeah definitely Because in a sense, obviously if they lose, you're bragging rights and all that kind of stuff, but if they're not expected to win...

45:15A little pre-Afcon... But Sunderland have been better than Newcastle than Premier League this year. No, they have, which is why it's certainly on form, it's much more equal. I mean, if you totted up the squads, can you imagine what the disparity would be with the price tags? I mean, Sunderland, they're a point above Newcastle. Obviously, it's a bit silly season at the moment, as you say, Luke, but Sunderland have been very, very good. Don't deny the league table now. It's just Luke Kimo who's denying it. True, he's bullying me again. He's sucked you in, hasn't he? Yeah. but I think Sunderland this is a fixture that they've wanted for a long time let's be honest you look forward to it when you've had to bide your time and Sunderland have been through really tough times you've got to remember last time Sunderland played Newcastle the owner who now everyone loves because obviously they're back in the Premier League and they seem to have a really good plan in place he was kind of persona non grata because he allowed a load of Sunderland bars to be decorated in Newcastle slogans which was mad it was EDM intensifies and the Newcastle...

46:13That was the previous one that would intensify. It's just like that's like recent abhorrent moves from the chairman. Very strange. To be fair to him, he did come out in applause and say, I've let everyone down. I don't know how this happened. It won't happen again kind of thing. Paint over it then. But I've been... I think Sunderland's recent results have clearly been tougher. But I've been super impressed by them. And if you take into account the last couple of games they've played Liverpool and Manchester City, of course. The game against Fulham would have been disappointing for them but I feel like they always were going to be a team who are really actually pretty strong at home and although the betting companies don't agree I actually think some of the favourites for this game I completely agree I think they've got a great system they all know their jobs Newcastle can't break down that little block either and Newcastle have found it it's a weird one because the form has actually inverted in recent weeks Newcastle have been pretty good they've got the results which is different I don't think they've been great I think Bernie was probably the one that turned the tide a little bit but even then they nearly drew that match I think since the international break they've definitely had an upturn in results but I know what you mean Peter still sort of yet to convince I think some of the favourites of this game and maybe there's a little bit of fatigue because that was quite an exhausting match and Leverkusen for Newcastle and a bit of a signal that they didn't walk away with a win there but still so an intriguing match that we're all very much looking forward to see did you see that Nick Voltemada was asked recently in a press conference if he'd met any females on Tyneside yet I found that quite uncomfortable it was ridiculous you're asking like a journalist a qualified journalist asked that question was it Cottrell again I don't think it was Cottrell we can't even say that but because he was talking about Cottrell's got his question out that's out of order but we were talking about Newcastle's a big club Nick Nick have you got a girlfriend or not Nick you're a very big man you're interesting you've been on the apps Nick fancy a smooch Nick doesn't look very good Nick I love you answer my text Nick doesn't look very good for you Nick he's asking 23 year olds three year olds if he's fucking I mean like good god it's wrong with you and it wasn't Cutter all you asked that by the way have you got a spare room in your big house his mate's moved in with him hasn't he that's right his mate's it's meant behaving badly yeah a little bit they're not necessarily behaving badly but the thing that made it the thing that made it uncomfortable is that Nick Volta Marder seemed quite uncomfortable yeah and if you're a journalist talking in the second language as well yeah if you're a journalist you should have the social skills to understand that that's actually a little bit inappropriate yeah nothing to do with football at all and if Valtemar would have been laughed off and been really smooth about it yeah cool it wouldn't have been a problem I don't think but you've got to read the room to an extent I don't think you should have to answer questions like that I completely agree you're driving the childminder home asking about their friends you've got good friends have you got good friends friends Pete's projecting again everyone disgusting do they have good friends Peter does Nick Valtemar have good friends that's the question we all need good friends it's a problem it's when good neighbours become good friends that's a lovely another 90s it gets them in anyway it gets them in from any angle from any angle I think with Nick Valtemar he's such a likeable bloke isn't he he's really in terms of his how much the fans have taken to him it's been immediate there his form has been pretty good I mean he's adapting he's adapting to a new position as well I think that that out and out front man that people just assume that he might have been when he goes there it's a difficult and rare position these days isn't it well it is and also but it's not what he's often done I mean Volta Messi is what they've been calling him I don't know why maybe the manager can transform him into a Joe Linton style midfield breakup boy.

49:41Yeah, true. I think though that with Wisser coming back, I think maybe they might find a system now to get them both in there. You know, we shall see. But I mean, that is, you know, if Wisser can come back and again, hit the ground running, that would be such a lovely... It's mad that situation because obviously he's just not really played. Well, yeah. And for Vultimada as well, as a new country, new league and all the rest of it, to basically go, right, big boy, we need you to, to score a lot of goals. We really need you to sort of produce the goods. He's getting used to a load of different stuff, in particular, a new kind of style of play with the way he was playing out in Germany and so on.

50:17So yeah, if Whistler can come in there and I say help out, you know, do his bit, which we know is quite impressive. Because Newcastle has got a lot of players missing. Yeah, I think you could see Newcastle, certainly in the second half of the season, a bit like last season, their performances and so on improve. I also think, by the way, the other angle for Sunderland and their fans is that this is the last game before they get basically decimated by AFCON. They're going to lose more players than any other team in the Premier League. And so they're obviously desperate to get points on the ball and this will be a great way to sign off because it's going to get tougher for them.

50:48Do you think that's why they've performed so well? The manager's like, seriously, lads. You're all going. We need to rack up the points. Half of you aren't going to be here. It's going to be a bit of a bugger in January. Wiss is not going. Wiss is not allowed. Right, David was saying that I think that Sunderland might lose seven players. Yes, a lot, yeah. Really, really important ones as well. Good God. Right, gentlemen, before we go, did you see this? This is lovely stuff. QPR are auctioning Peter Oddenwinge's unused QPR shirt, which of course they had prepared for him when he was due to go there, but his failed transfer from West Brom didn't materialise in 2013.

51:25That was the whole business where he was driving up and down the motorway. I love the idea that they made a shirt up for him. They wouldn't let him in a stadium. They made a shirt for him. So yeah, there is a Peter Oddenwinge QPR shirt out there it's up for auction if you fancy getting that just for the banter who's it for though because obviously who is he playing for at the time West Brom West Brom the West Brom fans aren't going to buy it QPR fans would be odd to buy it there's a banter lord out there who's got the money hey look at me it'll be Beavis Beavis the influencer Bevo Bevo Bevo he doesn't eat perfectly Bevo's a very confusing guy he's had a funny you should keep it like that keep it like that don't let doing you a service not answering that question appreciate that did you see though on the pitch QPR beat Birmingham during the week with a 97th minute goal from Kieran Morgan yes in celebration Jonathan Varane Raphael's brother yeah Raphael Varane's brother pulled down Morgan's shorts Morgan had already removed his shirt so he was just left in his pants and it was great because and he took it very well he took it very well but he he had matching black pants and sports bra on yes so he actually looked great that's the thing ready for the beach if you're a footballer chances are you're probably in good nick yeah especially if you take it all off yeah exactly even if you're like semi-pro you're probably in really good nick especially if you're in the championship so if someone whips your kecks down or your top off it's kind of like that whereas at our level of football we'll be like yeah exactly we're playing a bit of football later aren't we so watch out Pete famously won't get changed in the changing rooms with the likes of Marcus and I even used to back in the day whereas you like to take your clothes off in all other places you've got it wrong the gender room is designed my body my rules Marcus Marcus and I would have a lovely time in the showers after the game wouldn't it be Marcus just being bloody blokes he's bloody his rules he would have been gone with his shin pad still in Jonathan Varane who most people won't have necessarily won't be as as oh favoured as his more favoured brother he also plays for Martinique internationally so rather than play for France which presumably he's decided that he's not good enough to do he's taken the plunge and he now plays for Martinique he has of last year.

53:34So a lot of commuting going on with that. But what a lovely spot to go to though, presumably. Lovely part of the world. Not too shabby. So he's found his own international niche. Indeed. Right, everybody. This afternoon, it's Jack's Encyclopedia. It's Luke versus me. Luke, the chance for you to unite the belts. I don't think there's much chance because I'm rubbish at that one.
