Hello and welcome to the TIFO football podcast.

I'm Joe Devine, and I'm now joined by Alex Stewart.

Good morning, Joe.

And Seb Stafford Blois.

Hello, Joe Devine.

Gooden tafford.

Good and talk, Herr, Devine.

The best, too?

Me Gates is good.

Yes, well, Seb is good because he's over here in the United Kingdom on a little trip for a couple of days, visiting the offices of the athletic.

And to record a podcast and other things.

And in doing so, you managed to miss the game of a generation while you were on a plane. But you've watched it since, I hear. I have watched it since, but without the jeopardy of watching it in real time. So it's kind of weird because I feel like if you watch that kind of game live, then that's the experience. Sure. Post, you know, when all the discussions happened and all the Twitter reaction has been recorded, nah, not so much. But still, interesting. Did you feel any jeopardy, Alex? No. Okay. Well, if you like jeopardy, unlike Alex, the place you'll find it or not, depending on your definition of that. Loads of good jeopardy, no bad jeopardy Jeopardy. Good Jeopardus is The Athletic.

If you visit Theathletic.com forward slash TIFO, you'll find that you can get a 30-day free trial to trial the Athletic.

And I tell you what, it's a good week to do so because there were some very exciting pieces out this weekend.

I particularly enjoyed Alex.

I enjoyed Adam Crafton's sort of summary

of what happened in the Man United Liverpool game. And I mostly enjoyed it because I saw

Alex say to one of the, sorry, I saw Adam say to one of the editors at half time, would you like a

piece about why Solshar should go? And they said, yes, can we have it later tonight? He said,

I'll do it for the whistle.

And I felt like reading his piece afterwards, I thought, you've been thinking these things

for some time. And there were good thoughts. Yeah, there was also a really good Olly Kay piece
