Best half of the season. I salute you Herr Farke, and hope the timing of your subs gets as much air time as usual after that masterclass! MOT!

Love this review. Having written the book in a different style (and being about a terrible season!), it’s especially pleasing to hear it’s someone’s favourite! Thanks Eric, if you’re out there! 🤗 @PitchPublishing

Nailed the JMB situation when he signed. Pretty predictable and no slight on anyone (except those who don’t value Farke’s outstanding record at developing players! 🤣)

I disguised £625.72m of owner money as "sponsorship" in Sham Pain Super Nova before the commission caught me. City managed £830.69m. Evidence found: 7/10. Beat that: leedsthat.com/shampain @leedsthat so close!

Always gave his all and an integral part of El Loco’s Revolution. That means a lot more to me than a throw away comment from his mum! Best of luck Jackie boy 🫡
