2:11Yes. That's what she's talking about. Are we on the overlap? Say hi, I'm Ron. Are you going to pop me on? Hi, Ron. I love Ron. It's a landmark day. I'm going watching my first ever WSL game. And Jill's going to take me. It's the Manchester derby. Best reception I've ever had in this crowd. See? Whoa! It's good. Wow. That was offside. Oh, no! Yes! Freedom! Oh, no. The game's changed.

2:51You know what? Me and Gary, I don't think we have been to a game before. I don't watch any other football than Salford and Premier League football. I need a City win, especially at the Etihad. To be fair, I'm actually fascinated. I'm going to be asking loads of questions. Bye Molly! Where are they? Nick? What are you doing up there? Is Jill going to drive down or is she going to leave me halfway up the road type thing? Thanks Jill.

3:28Bloody hell. You're late. It's a bit of whack it in. I'm going to Sunderland after this. Are you? Yeah. For what? I've just got a head bag of poem. I've got something on Wednesday. And then just that one. There you go. Right, let's go. Come on. Where are we going?

3:50Do you still get excited, Jill, going to these games? Yeah, I am actually excited because I haven't been to a game for a while. And especially at Derby as well. I'm like, it'll be good fun. There's only a point between them as well. Are you hot? It's 28 degrees, Jill. I mean... Not outside. I know it's not outside, but I mean... It's a big woolly jumper you've put on. I didn't know where we were going to be sat. It's been a terrible weekend for me, Jill, football-wise. Why? What else happened? Salford lost 2-0 at home. Yeah. United have been beaten at home 3-1. You add to that the little things like City winning 3-0 against Ipswich and Liverpool winning the last minute.

4:30That becomes a pretty horrific weekend, Jill, to be honest with you. If City beat yous today in this game, that's it. One of the worst weekends in football history. Nailing the coffin. You were at City for how long, about seven or eight years? Eight years, yeah. Eight years. When I first signed in 2014, so I was kind of like the first signing under the new umbrella of them kind of making this plan. So we sat down... Did they buy you? No, I don't think so. I think it was just a free. Right.

5:02Look at that, looks lovely doesn't it Gary? No I mean you've done a good job, you've done that We've got here early haven't we? Yeah I know

5:18Well done Jill I've passed my driving test Let me just get one of them sweets before I go Do you know something, leave them in here and tonight when you go up to Sunderland, you'll remember me and you'll go, John, I'm glad you're home. I'm not going to forget you in like an hour. Right, is he your gilet? Do I need it or not? He looks like Gary the Action Man. Oh, we've both got Burberry jackets on, but Jill. Oh, yeah? Is that Cheshire Oaks as well? Mine was. Cheshire Oaks. You're both supporting different teams? Yeah. She won't forsake me. Dam, dam, dam, dam, dam. Kieran, you've got my pass. Yeah, you're all right.

5:59You've got my pass. You're not allowed, dude. Hello, are you OK? You all right? Yeah, good, thank you. Hello, how are you? You all right? Yeah, good. Is that the picture? I'm like, whose child to you? Thank you. I am both of them. I'm glad I'm glad. Thank you. Wow, I usually get called a wanker in there.

6:23See, it's friendly, isn't it? there you are this is the referee can I just say alright ref sent us off sent us off in the league cup final because you're an arsehole no and it wasn't even it wasn't even a red card it wasn't even a red card I get over things easily but you know if this was a men's game and you walked on here do you think there'd be boos yeah I think there'd be a few yeah comments yeah a few chants a few comments yeah that is one thing that they do say about the women's game like it is friendly atmosphere and you know what you get a few chants when you are playing but then at the end you go over you meet the opposition fans and I think everybody is just dead excited but truly that's what sport should be that you just especially when you've got young kids that's the word they're excited about the game aren't they when you come sometimes to a bit moody people like thinking oh I wonder what happens today if we get beat people are talking a little bit like that aren't they yeah Yeah, and if people have had a drink as well, then they get a bit more brave and stuff like that.

7:27Jill's a legend here. No, I'm not. Go and meet your people. Meet your people. Go and meet your people. Let's do some keepy-up. There you go. Hey, guys, you OK? You all right? You OK? Yeah. You know, when you hear the stories of women and girls trying to make it in sport and professional sport, I do understand it a little bit purely because of my sister and what she went through in netball and the sort of struggle for funding, the struggle for facilities. Yes, of course. no one really paying attention and sort of like, it's demoralising, honestly, it really is. There you go. It's just a lot bloody harder for them, simple as that.

7:59Thank you. Nice to meet you, take care. Thank you. Are you all in the posh seats? Yeah. Got the top signing. Are you in? Are you in? Hang on, are you in? I've been here for a few of the men's games, but I think when you come back for the women's, I expect to be on the pitch, but I can't run anymore, so, yeah. Come on, Jill, show me where we're going. I don't even know where we're going. I never usually get the box. It's just because Gary's here. You're all right. You're OK. You're all right. You're OK. Are you busy this week? I'm away. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. Are you aware of that?

8:34I'm Davos. Where the hell is that? Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. The World Economic Forum. Oh, my God. I've got to ask you. Where's Davos?

8:48There's one criminal card. I'll tell you what. But this WSL's all right. Get fed well. Right, Jill. Whilst I devour my... Third plate of food. Whilst I devour my third plate of food in my lamb hotpot, which is absolutely incredible, you are going to select and justify your Manchester combined 11. This is actually really difficult, and because I'm so Manchester City strong, I need to be careful. Is there a rule on... Well, the rule is that I want you to be fair. And I think you're a very fair person. OK. So I would expect you to choose the players who you feel are the best. Well, I'm definitely going to go Joyce in goal because she's actually only conceded three out of ten in the league.

9:34I do love Kiara Keaton, but I do think she just edges it. You don't love her that much. Sorry, Kiara. Sorry, Kiara. Right, I've got to go Alex Greenwood. She's injured though, isn't she? Yeah, but... But you can't go to somebody who's injured, surely? Yeah, because this is like all time. Oh, is it? Yeah. Is that what you just made the rules up? I'm in there. No, I'm joking. Yeah, Alex, most technically gifted centre-back I've actually ever seen. And then I'm going to go... You know what? I like Leticia. I'm going to put her there. Young player, centre-half. I think she's got a bright England career ahead of her.

10:10Captain of Man United as well. So you have to put the captain in, don't we? Well, that's two United players, Julie, you've gone for so far. No. Oh, yes. And one city player. And, Jill, just quickly, United have only conceded three goals this season, so I would expect to see some full-backs from United in this team as well. OK. Well, if this is all-time and not just this season, right, I am a really big fan of Hannah Blundell. She's actually pregnant at the minute, so she won't be playing tonight. Over my career, there was not many wingers got past her. and then left back, I'm going to go for...

10:47She'll get rid of all the players that have been dismissed. Is this stressing you out? Yeah, it's a mess that I can't see you at this moment. Your OCD, right, OK. Yeah, right down to the bottom. The players who you basically don't rate. OK. No, you can't say that. Alex Andre is such a good player and she is a centre-half, but I'm going to do one of the... Did you ever find that in your career? did Alex Ferguson go try and accommodate his good players out of position? Yes. Are you a fan of that or do you think stick to your position? It didn't work for England under Svengård and Eriksson did it when he was trying to accommodate all the best players.

11:24So do you think make a decision? I think you've got to pick people who are the best in their positions if you can. I've just totally listened to you and went for a centre-half at left back. OK. Right. Well done. Best holding midfielder. Does it have to be a holding midfielder? Yeah, I think so for that role. Especially in the system I'm going to play, because this player, everything has to go through her, so I'm going to go for Yui here. She's had a fantastic season, so she's going to be my holding midfielder. Just move all those players up if you can, Jill, so we can see who you've picked so far.

11:55Really stressing you out. At the moment you're like, you've got a front 43. United are going to need that today. Right, my attacking midfielders. Oh, this is so hard. Would you have put yourself in this team, Jill? No. Why not? That's been humble. you're too humble but you know what I was decent in this system in the eight but I do think Jill Rode she's a better Jill than me I'm afraid so I'm going to put her in there oh this is so hard Grace Tooney I'm going to go Tooney yeah I think she's just got that shot from outside the box and she could get a few goals and I knew you were going to say I'd pick two Man City players right so I can get rid of these I'm really sorry right my forwards How Chloe Kelly is not out on that pitch tonight, I don't know.

12:42Is she sub? No, but for me, all day long. And then you've got to go Lauren Hemp. Meadamore, Shaw, Williams, that is so hard. I don't want you to demonstrate empathy or compassion here. I want you to be brutal. OK. This team's got to be the very best that it can be. Who's in net now, by the way? I feel like I've lost a goalkeeper. It's really stressing you out. Yeah, just push it up a bit. There you go. And then we've got the goalkeeper up. OK. Is that all right for you? That's better. That's a lot better. Right, I'm going to have... And then we've got three centre-forward. Who scored the most goals this season out of those three?

13:13It's going to have to be Bunny Shaw. Bunny Shaw? Yes. It's a city front three. So that would be my team. And look at all these amazing players I've left out. Well, there we go. We have the EA Sports FC 25, Jill Scott combined Manchester Derby, first 11. Yeah. Oh, I like to. Wow. Jill, go see the light show. I'm not a child.

13:50Whoa! This is amazing.

13:57Wow. A bit of entertainment. A bit of excitement.

16:31Oh, thank you so much. Thank you. Do you want hot chocolate? Yeah. Excuse me. Can I have another one? Here, take that. No, I want you to have it. Such a gentleman. Another one, please. Is that possible? Yeah, Jill's took mine. Thanks. She's thieved it off me. Such a gentleman. Jill's took mine.

16:50She's in. Starting at All United. Yeah. I know it's a difficult question, but you finished playing two years ago. Yeah. How much of a better game is this now than, say, you started in, say, 10, 15 years ago? Oh, wow. Yeah, it's like night and day, really. I think we'll probably fit there in some aspects, but technically this is an absolute other level. We could never, obviously the back end of my career, yes, but the beginning, we could never have played through the third so tidily. but it goes back to up until the age of like 26 I was only having two, three sessions a week on the ball and the facilities and your pitches would have been poor as well wouldn't they?

17:31oh yeah really poor really poor and you think now the academy kids are having five, six sessions on the ball a week so the technical level is yeah I don't think I'd be technically good enough to have had the career I had but then people say well you've had more training but I wasn't a technical player

17:54Chelsea's title this season is it a given type thing or could it still change you know what I would have said that it wasn't a given if City had kept the team City played Barcelona recently and oh my god it was the best performance I've ever seen from them I think it was 2-0 right but the players have got injured since then yes and then they went to Barcelona since then and got beat 3-0 and that is literally the difference but watching them in that game, I was like, this team's going to win everything. They were brilliant. My mum was playing football when she was at primary school, 10 years of age, for the boys' team.

18:31And it was a big thing at the time. It was in the Manchester News and in the Bury Times, local newspapers. She got basically banned from playing football. And she was the only girl that was playing football in the Manchester area. She was brilliant at it and loved it. And they banned her. Oh, my God. Which is true. True. Goal. Oh, no. she scored I'm saying she should have took that with her right but she was left footed she was falling I think she actually had gone past her yeah that was Leah Galton she's a good player so she actually got banned through the FA rule she got banned through the great Manchester FA they basically banned her and stopped her playing was it a big moment for her than when Phil got the England job yeah was he the favourite child then after Tracy yeah after chasing.

19:17Oh, both ahead of me. Yeah. Oh, God, in again. Yeah. scored. Tooney. Yes. Tooney. Wow.

19:28United's women are saving my weekend. Yeah, team! Yeah, team! Did your daughters ever think about football or was it netball? My youngest plays for the school team. Oh, really? I mean, they're obsessed with netball. They love netball because of my sister, really. Yeah. But they play for the school team, yeah? I've watched them a couple of times. Oh, that's good. I get them training on holiday. Do you? Absolutely. What do you do? Like, take them for runs? Yeah, take them to the gym with me. How old are they now? 14 and 16. Didn't one of them not come on your last holiday? Is that one? They're sort of edging away from me slowly.

20:04Dad's good. Honestly, you have to get yourself going. Yeah. It's easy to get into it. I mean, obviously, on holiday, you can have a rest as well sometimes. I know, but for teenage girls to go to the gym on holiday. I know, but still, honestly, I'm talking about a two-week holiday, I'm talking about, like, maybe once, twice a week. I'm not talking about every day, you know what I mean? But you've at least got to do something, haven't you? What are you making them do? Like, wait? No, just, like, circuit sessions. But to be fair, if they go in the gym, if they swim during the day or stuff like that, then I don't mind it.

20:34But you can't just, like, sort of lie around all day. No chance. Would you say you're a fun dad?

20:47What is a women's team like to manage? Obviously I've spoke to Phil about it What is a women's team like to manage? What did he say? I said that tall one's a right pain in the arse I do think coaches do like the women's game because you know sometimes not with men in general I'm going to get done for being sexist here but you get told something and they'll probably just get on with it and do it Women want to know why That's what Phil said to me. Like, they really challenge a coach. Phil said that they would take part in the meetings, they would feed back in the meetings, they would make it interactive.

21:19Whereas male football players, they're a bit sort of like, if someone said any questions, they'd all sort of like, no, you know what I mean? I think he said that when he was managing the women's team, they would ask questions all the time and they would be sort of challenging him and stuff. Yeah. Ooh, ooh, it's good. Wow. Wow.

21:43I heard one of them say as they walked in, let's save Gary's weekend. Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! When I think about being in stadiums like this, I had a season ticket for Sunderland. Would that be Roker Park? So they just moved from Roker Park to the Stadium of Light. So all my weekends were going to the Sunderland game with my grandad and I absolutely loved it and I'd watch a game on a Saturday it was Kevin Phillips and Al Quain like Mickey Gray and I'd be like right I'm going to do that tomorrow in my game and I just loved it so when I'm back at stadiums I always look over it was the south east corner and I remember just sitting there just loving going to the games did you go?

22:30yeah I went to United every week? every week from the age of 5 to about 11 did you? my dad joined Bury Football Club as commercial director to end up then moving between both. If Bury had a game, United, I had to go to Bury, which was brilliant to watch Bury as well. Were you a little bit good? A little bit, but I'd go to United games wherever I could. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I got to... I actually really loved watching Bury. I loved it. So who would have been the players that you looked up to? It would have been Joe Jordan. You're the Joe Jordan. You are old, aren't you? Gordon McQueen, Arthur Olberston, Mike Duxbury.

23:09Oh, OK. I always remember my granddaddy'd, like, been to the pub early to get us a ticket for the bus. He just wanted to go to the pub early. And then he used to go and get five chocolate bars for a pound from, like, the... I think they were, like, out of date. So I used to come back. I'd had the biggest sugar rush ever. I'd had about four whispers. Whispers weren't there when I was that much younger, Jill. We didn't have whispers. Are you joking? Do you remember opal fruits? Yes, instead of starbursts. Instead of starbursts. I do remember them. I do remember them. God, Gary's old. What did you learn from today?

23:44Gary's old. I do feel quite lucky that I grew up in Sunderland because we actually did have a women's team when I went to senior school, and that was going back 30 years ago, and they're still fighting for that now in some schools. But I was probably at a lot of your games with Sunderland because I remember Becky used to come and take the corners and I was absolutely buzzing and Barthez in goal did you play with Barthez in goal? I used to take the throw-ins Jill I'd be like there's Gary Neville I think you've just seen us No but isn't it mad as a kid though like your memories because I remember I was ball girl because when you played for the academy did you ever have that where you could then be ball boys?

24:26Did it once in Europe Yeah and I remember giving the ball to Barthez and I was like buzzing You know, them little memories. Yeah, I remember doing a game, United versus Atletico Madrid, where there was a player called Bert Schuster was playing. I am showing my age now because I was probably 16, ball-boying. 16 ball-boy, that's quite old. I bet you were one of these. The under-12s are ball-boy. I'll do it as well. Oh, God. No, I remember what it was. So it was in Europe against Atletico Madrid. Bert Schuster played and Paolo Futre for Atletico Madrid. and the manager wanted bigger boys to get the balls back.

25:04And you volunteered? No, because he said that when the ball went out, they would waste time. So he wanted balls to be thrown back on quickly, so he wanted more mature boys. I bet you were like, Alex, I'm a big boy, Alex. And you know in Wimbledon when they get the ball and they put their hand up? You and Phil... Oh, I'm making myself laugh here now. But it's the absolute truth. No, I do believe you. Thank you. I 100 % believe you. It's 16. 16. That is so funny. 15, 16. I was about nine when I was on this store. Yeah, but you can't really sort of get the ball back in quickly when you're a nine-year-old.

25:42I mean, you know what I mean? Imagine, you're nine. I bet you were stopping all these kids. No, he's too young. I'll do it, Alex. I'll do it. You stop so many ball boys from having that opportunity. Oh, that is so funny. Oh, good goal. That's offside, though. That was offside. It's 3-0. But I thought it was offside, Jill. Think about it. It has to be offside. Yeah. That has to be offside, doesn't it?

26:16Cheese pasty? A cheese pasty? You're all right. You're OK? No, it's not for me, a cheese pasty. This is a bad one for Sydney, isn't it, Jill? Not a good day, I know. It's a bad one, eh? It is bad. Oh, no! That's a big ball. Oh, no!

26:38That's me opening my mouth too soon. Fucking hell. Your 60s number, our 36th, Wiedenberg! Oh,

26:58no. It's a good start. The game's changed. Need half-time. United won half-time more right now. United need half-time. What did you do at half-time? Did you need a wee at half-time? No. Before the game, loads. Loads, yeah. Because he's obviously drank all morning, haven't he, or whatever it was, afternoon. But I think at half-time for me, it was getting a drink. It's an important question. Definitely get a drink. I would... You wouldn't get the physio and rub your calves, would you? What do you say then? Were you one of them? Oh, no, I wouldn't get a rub at half-time, no. I wouldn't get a rub at half-time.

27:41There's your headline, guys. Yeah! That's it, the new player.

27:54Game on. You're the city on the first game in the DSL hour number 27, Rebecca Nye! Oh, there we go.

28:11Obviously, we've taken Gary to the Derby game, but I know obviously you're injured. And I was bigging you up as well before. I put you in my Manchester XI. Does it hurt even more missing the Derby game? these are the games you want to play they're the best games they want to look for things as soon as the pictures come out but it's hard it is hard I thought United played really well in the first half hour I thought the game might be good I thought their press was really good when they've come to be a bit shorter we can probably afford to play a little bit longer than behind which is it's easy sitting up here and talking about it everyone becomes a manager in the stand don't you but I think towards the end it came off a little bit more yeah yeah yeah we've found an odd rhythm a little bit later it was coming on the inside we've caused them a little bit more problems yeah who's your favourites now?

28:52I mean, we've got a bit of momentum now, haven't we? Yeah, I think so. I think so. I was like, City don't want this half-time to come because we're really on the front of our hands. I made a bit of a stupid statement at 3-0 saying City are done. He walked in saying City are done, and I was like, City are never done.

29:15We missed a goal, Jill. I know, I've seen it, though, on the thing. Was it a mistake? It was a mistake by the keeper, yeah.

29:24do you think City should make some changes since United scored that fourth I think they've been alright so would you keep it the same yeah for five more minutes and then go for it you know what I don't want to blame like the stadium or whatever but I do think it would have made a difference if City had been over there it's not all down to that but I do think it would have made a difference how I was as a player even now I like routine I like you know, the idea of knowing where you are. We are like the two most opposite human beings, I think. It's like stick to football. We have to sit in the same seats.

30:00Yeah. We have the same snacks. Yeah. We have the... It's that familiarity. You just need to do the same things. It's important. Yeah.

30:13He's going to get the beers in.

30:19You live in Cumberland? Oh, right, OK. OK, thank you. Oh, cos I'm travelling up to Sunderland after this. Oh, yeah. Not that I was going to say, do you want to lift? I was just wondering if you were going the same way. So, yeah. It's good that you work at the Co-op, though. Have you been to the Co-op yet? No, I'm going to Bruce Springsteen in May. Oh, Gary loves Bruce. Are you in his suite? Yeah. Yeah, of course you are. We didn't get an invite. Yeah. You can come if you want, Jill. OK. I've got two nights. First night's full, second night's got a couple of spaces. Wow. Gary's like a super fan.

31:00Have you got any sign of memorabilia? Yeah. Have you met him? No, I've not met him, no. Can you organise a meet and greet for Gary? Yes, Jill! Yes, Jill! Yes, Jill! Hello. Sorry, Ruby. How are you, Gary? How are you? Good to see you. You OK? You can go in the middle of us, Steph. Come and have a chat, basically, if you want to. Jill's just trying to get other people down because I'm boring her. Sit and chat to Gary, really. Hi, B. What is going on? How are you, Steph? I'm good, how are you? I'm good. I heard this is your first game. It's the first ever WSL game. It's been good, though, hasn't it?

31:37Yeah, it has been good. It's been good for United, it's good at the minute. It's good for a neutral fan, I think. What do you think's kind of been City's problems? Just basically playing out into United's hands. That's what they want to do is press. We said that. Oh, trouble, trouble. Go on, Viv. Oh, just shoot. Had to shoot. You have to shoot there, don't you? Yeah, I have to shoot. One of them. Just had flashbacks in. Shoot, Jill. Steph used to stand behind us. I'm like, just shoot, Jill. 20 years. Yeah, and the one you did in the FA Cup final, you scored. I think there was a fluke, to be honest.

32:19So you'll do a picture and send it to Phil? Oh, yeah, I will, I will. Why have you not got his number?

32:27He'll reply to you. Right, you ready?

32:38There we go. Oh, trouble, trouble. Oh, what a save! Oh, what a save! What a save, that was. a great save that that was a that could be a game changing moment that was a brilliant save 10 minutes to go so how many times do you two play together for England oh god a lot how many games do you play for England Steph 121 and Jill 146 definitely I've played all my games with Jill so every game pretty much yeah and you know what we only had one argument I can remember yeah in the final in the cup final you know one of them games when nothing's going right. And I was getting so mad. And usually if Steph said something, it was like, Jill, move so I can see you.

33:20I would have just took it. And I think I bit back. And I was like, but it was because I was having such a bad game. Anyway, we ended up winning 1-0. And at the end, I was like, I'm so sorry. But I remember celebrating that game. And I know this is going to sound quite bad. I was so happy we won, but I was so disappointed with how bad I'd played. You know when you just can't get happy?

33:42How are you doing? Are you working tomorrow? No, I'm in the office. See you later. Thank you. That makes me a really good game. It does, actually. That fourth goal has killed it a little bit for City, I think. I actually did want it to just be an exciting game. Yeah, no, it's been good. Should I get you a City WSL season ticket? You get me a United WSL team to pick. This is a bad one for City, isn't it? Yeah, it is. Tough one to take. One of your goals was definitely offside. Yeah, it was.

34:27Well done. Excellent.

34:35Don't look back in anger. What a song. Oh, no. I know. Well done, Jill. I've got the eyes, you're on my eyes. What we doing? What we doing. We're going to go home, Jill, and you're going to go and sit in a car park and get your car charged. Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it! So, you've played ten times against Manchester City and never scored a goal. I know, yeah. Have you not? Scored three. Never scored. I don't think I've scored an after. Do you not know who's tough you? You've just been told that. You've got to do your research before the game. Maybe that's because I was playing centre-off. Are you joking?

35:13And the first United player ever to score a hat-trick in the Derby. How does that feel? Cold. Freezing. My knees are killing that. You didn't run around enough. United! United! Are we on the overlap? Yes. That's not too strong. Are we on the overlap? Say hi, I'm Roy. Are you going to put me on? Hi, Roy. I love Roy. Do you? I don't like it. I'll get a message to you. All right, you're getting told off. OK, thanks, guys. Thank you. See you later. Well done. Brilliant, well done. We've been interviewing you. Thank you. We're just talking to you. Oh, shit. Bye. Why does everyone say they love Roy?

35:46Because he's not going to love them back. So it's wasted love, Tonya. But that was a nice night, wasn't it? Well, it was for you. Not so much for me. Well, no. Well, to be fair, though, it was a bad weekend for me, but it's just been resurrected. Yeah. That was a really good game, first half. Second half, it obviously just petered out a little bit. But no, it was really good. I enjoyed it. I think for fans to come and see six goals as well, obviously, Tooney get a hat-trick. But yeah, I think City will probably look at it as kind of, I don't know, moving forward. Are they going to have to change a few things about how they're playing and stuff?

36:21But yeah, a good night for you. Not so good a night for me. Yeah, both United teams winning it. The Etihad in the last couple of months. That's all you can hold on to. should we talk about the United score today in the men's no we'll move on no no no ok we're going now good evening we're going see you later good see you later see you later
