Summary
After Wayne Rooney’s dismissal this week, it means yet another of Sir Alex Ferguson’s greatest proteges has found the managerial hot seat far too hot. A listener asks Marcus, Luke and Vish why this keeps happening.
Plus, why have there suddenly been so many disruptors to the so-called ‘top six’ in recent years? What’s the point of pre-match press conferences? And for some reason, we imagine what Andy Gray would have sounded like cast as James Bond.
