| 0:02.7 | Hi there, this is the Athletic FC podcast weekend preview. |
| 0:08.5 | It is match day back in the studio. If you are listening, if you are watching on YouTube as well, alongside me is Tim Spears. |
| 0:40.6 | It's lovely to be back in the studio with you, feeling your warmth, your vibes. |
| 0:45.5 | Yeah, yeah, you too, yeah. |
| 0:47.1 | Tim is here and Liam is also here, but remotely. |
| 0:51.9 | How are you, Liam? |
| 0:53.2 | Not so good now I felt that that that passive-aggressive |
| 0:56.2 | aggressive dig at my non-presence. No, I was remote last week, so I'm all aboard the remote |

| 1:45.5 | stand behind the goal, which was proved very costly because that ended up being, due to my |
| 1:51.2 | research, the longest weight in between penalties by almost double. Bernardo Silver had to |
| 1:57.2 | wait a minute before he took his penalty. Interesting. If you want to read more about it, it's on the athletic right now. |
| 2:03.0 | And Liam, from the sort of sublime analysis and high-level penalty shootout, to the ridiculous |
| 2:12.2 | scenes at Stanford Bridge when anyone but Cole Palmer, who was trying to get the ball off |
