0:00This podcast is part of the Acast Creator Network. let's talk about I mean what was such an amazing time for you at City in that transition obviously we did one of the most iconic Premier League celebrations is when Aguero scores and I don't even know I mean the the producer of that deserves a lot of credit as well how he goes look at Joe Hart bang and then goes to you running with that kind of like both arms in the air and I've never seen in a world of conspiracies you could even imagine that that was all planned. Yeah. Unreal. Talk us through that day. I mean, I've got so many questions to ask you about that day, but you know, that particular moment, like that is an iconic celebration.

0:45The line from Aguero, the cut to you, the shirt off from Aguero, the scenes afterwards, you know, Phil Jones in somewhere else. Commentary from Mike Tyler. The commentary, everything. But you're iconic in that and that will be forever more. Well, see, Chris, to say that that could be like if the cameras weren't there if that was just a sunday league game i wouldn't have like i i zoned out i don't know what happened i have no idea if i didn't didn't see it i wouldn't have known that it happened because it was such tension that day like it was a horrendous day awful like to go from we'd set it all up and been through what we've been through that season in terms of we were flying and then we fell fell to pieces and united came strong and then they fell to pieces and then we kind of dealt with them a couple of weeks before and set up just to beat qpr which we were more than capable of that's not being disrespectful we were more than capable of beating them that day like we turn up we win and it just how it transpired was horrendous like just remember being stood watching waiting thinking we fucked this we've absolutely fucked this when we've set it up to to do something special and you know the manchester city tagline isn't typical City anymore it's very much you're talking about Manchester City you're talking about being awesome taking care of business but that line was there we were kind of in that kind of mode and I thought oh no and then for Edding to score late and then the Aguero moment and then just all hell just broke loose mate what does that look like from a goalkeeper's point of view like you've got the best view in the house really right behind it thinking I just saw QPR bodies and they were down to 10 at the time but they've gone from you know their survival was on the line actually Their survival was on the line that day.

2:27But I actually do remember, because I was that redundant after they'd gone 2-1 up that I could talk to people behind the goal who was keeping me updated with United score. Yeah. And they went. So you were asking. Yeah, yeah. I've done that. Especially during title races, I've always had someone that I've picked out or a ball boy who would always keep me updated with the scores, always. So you say someone like, you could be a fan or someone literally. It would be a home fan or it would be like, quite often ball boys especially at Celtic in my I'd have the boys that I'd always they knew that if I looked at them they'd refresh the the Rangers score because usually we'd be a rumble with them so they'd be able to give me little signals or whatever love title races and then they'd gone I think I love watching title races me too I think it was I think it was Bolton and Stoke might have drawn two all which relegated Bolton and someone's gone and I saw it filtering to the QPR bench and they went from defending with their lives to just, you could just see them all.

3:31They didn't stop playing, but they were like five minutes to go, we don't really need, we don't need this drama. And Edin scored. And even when Edin scored, they took the kickoff and just kicked it and no one went over the halfway line. They were just kind of camping in, but that kind of energy just dropped a little bit from them. Do you think that's kind of percentage? Yeah, I think maybe, you know, like I say, there'll be no conspiracy again they didn't throw it but they're just there you could just see them take a deep sigh of relief because it didn't meet they didn't have to like die to stay up and then obviously it unfolded and the peace of mind and brilliance of Aguero to kind of jink round him that was all set up for a penalty like Mario was on Mario would have took that penalty in the night after everyone had argued and fought in the 95th minute he'd have wandered up staring at Paddy Kenny in the eyes and rolled it and rolled it in one of the corners so it could have gone to another level well so I so now I began with like sliding doors innit like that would have been an incredible moment as well wouldn't it yeah that would have been I don't know if I'd have been able to handle that one that would have been a tough one he would would he would he have relished that would he have he'd go I'm going to stroll up to this and look him in the eyes and place it for all the enigma and for all the shite that surrounds his name I'll credit him he would have stepped up in that moment and he would have rolled it he would have rolled it he would have rolled it the celebration would have been different I reckon yeah a bit of swagger yeah I think there would have been a serious swagger but yeah it's a different thing isn't it I mean what did you do that night you just won the league I mean it's in one of the most dramatic fashions of all time do you know what I remember going back to my family and my dad kind of just he was trying to like get me to zone him but I couldn't I don't really remember it and we were out of drinking on the pitch and I think we went to we went to Manchester City cathedral or town hall or something like massive party in there and then we had the open top tour bus and it was just a massive party it was just mega it was just mega it was just blue everywhere and we were just we were just living like there was no tomorrow i ended up djing the the man united end of season awards that season wow it was a really rogue that season would that have been as the season finished because sometimes yeah because it was it was so it was very close afterwards as I remember it a week a week something like that and it had the feeling of awake yeah it was so odd like when I turned up like later on the evening for one it was a surreal thing for me anyway just looking at who was on the tables and everything but the way Alex Ferguson talked to the players it was like almost a glimpse into what I imagine being in the dressing room was like and no one was answering back no one was it was so dour the whole thing but the team's so used to winning and obviously doing it how it unfolded I can only imagine and that's why they did what they did the season after coming back coming back so strong that was a yeah we yeah we were messing with some big dogs then this episode is brought to you by a load of pricks.net we are the experts in selling houses Chris couldn't sell his house what did you do Chris?

6:40I couldn't sell my house for love nor money Crouchy three different offers I had all at the last minute fell through. I turned around to my wife and said, what can we do to sell this house? Every estate agent is failing us. Then I told her, let's go to a load of pricks.net. But Chris, what did a load of pricks do for you? They were brilliant, Crouchy. They sold my house right away. The sign had barely gone up when a well-dressed gentleman came along and offered me twice the asking price. Chris, would you use a load of pricks again? I'd use them every time, Crouchy. Go to a load of pricks.net. They will sell your house like no other.
