Arsenal fans Ekpen, Folarin and Matt believe that the boys have to win at Wolves and then at home to Chelsea to remain in the title race before Champions City play again. Exit from the Champions League followed the home league defeat to Aston Villa is causing some doubts with regards to the title race now that City are two points ahead on the table. There is hope. It is SIX to go.

Before the meat of the discussion, there was a fascinating insight on how IICC Shootings Stars Football Club of Ibadan, Nigeria was run in the 70s, as narrated by Sola.

I had the privilege of having Manchester United fans from across the world join me in the pod to talk about where the current team is and hopes for the next season.Vic joined in from Nairobi, Yomi was in Amsterdam, Bola, Bayo and Eze from Lagos and Doc Ijay and myself in London. There was a big split in views on what is responsible for the poor performance of the team, which gave room for each to speak their minds. For Bola, nothing can save the season, for others winning the FA Cup will be good enough. We named that one player we would want the club to sign next season, Vic named FOUR!

The Liverpool fans believe that Klopp will get more than a Carabao Cup for his send-off.
Dr ET Peters while in university in Nigeria and playing football had her knee busted by a wicked tackle. It changed her vision and career choice she said in a post on X.
