Summary
Comedian Iain Stirling, football presenter Natalie Paweleck, football commentator and former Chelsea player Pat Nevin and sports journalist Jim White join Colin Murray to celebrate and commiserate what would have been the end of the Premier League season.
Points are awarded for informed comment, wit and passion, but taken away for nonsense and answers lacking in conviction.
In the final round, the top two points scorers go head-to-head in 'Defend the Indefensible' where they must both defend a statement however ludicrous or distasteful for twenty seconds. There can only be one winner!

| 0:04.6 | Hello everybody, welcome to the show that has done many a memorable thing behind closed |
| 0:08.6 | doors. I'm Colin Murray and this is Fighting Talk. |
| 0:23.2 | It's Saturday morning we're here again on the two regular shows to go. It's off for grabs |
| 0:28.1 | for the FT Champion of Champions with three of tonight's panels in the hunt for a place |
| 0:34.3 | on our end of season finale, a fortnight from today. So let's get on with it. From 9 until mid-day |
| 0:40.0 | we marked the final day of the Premier League season so we've got representatives of the top four |
| 0:46.0 | here and who would have thought that Manchester United would have crept in at the expense of Leicester? |
| 0:51.2 | I should state that's got nothing to do with the fact that Mark Swartz, the former foxes keeper, |

| 1:01.7 | just finished the season, nice 38 points off top spot. It's not Lee Parflek, I not Lee. |
| 1:07.3 | Living in a full-on dreamland. |
| 1:13.8 | That was birdie accurate from being honest. Yeah. So here's what you need to know |

| 1:32.5 | winning you're in situation. So if you win today, you will be in the Champions of Champions. |
| 1:36.4 | Right. I mean, I was absolutely and utterly screwed over and I haven't spent seven weeks thinking |
| 1:40.8 | about how I didn't get into the final last time. Well, you're going to take even longer to get over |
| 1:44.5 | today. Represent Liverpool, a man who hasn't left his man cave in six weeks, venturing from it |
