Summary

#108. This week on the country's favourite United podcast we look back at the Reds' late late victory over Blackburn at Ewood Park; a win that takes Sir Alex Ferguson's men five points clear in the title race. We talk David de Gea, Ashley Young and Antonio Valencia - could the trio send United to glory before the derby later this month? And we ponder what's happening at City, where Roberto Mancini is feeling the pressure, and Mario Balotelli is getting up to his old antics. We touch on the Champions League - United may not be in the compeition, but a former Red is still banging them in - and, finally, there's a preview of the weekend's fixture with Queens Park Rangers at Old Trafford, and the trip to Wigan to face Athletic on Wednesday!No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music and all good podcast apps.

0:38.0

despite what the bookies might be saying why why are they paying out on the United

0:41.5

winner already yet?

Well this is Bet Fred, who likes Fred Donne,

0:45.5

who likes to pay out and it's a good piece of publicity for him.

0:49.2

He did it before, didn't he, in 2003 when he paid out on the United States won the title and 12 points clear

0:55.6

only for Arsenal to come storming back and win the title so it cost him something like

0:59.7

half a million pounds at that time but but good publicity all around because the amount of

press coverage you got as a result. He's obviously a gambling man and he's basically

1:33.0

Everyone apparently is not trying to target a niche audience. Anyway, Blackburn Game, I mean, we went
