Summary

Jimbo is joined by Carl Anka, Rory Smith and Duncan Alexander as the Champions League and Championship play-off finals become set in stone. Man City demolish holders Real Madrid 4-0 to set up a meeting with Inter in Istanbul. One of the most dominant performances at this stage of the competition imaginable and a symbol of the super powerful structure that City have become. Where next for Los Blancos? Where next for Coventry City? Wembley for an unlikely play-off final with Luton for a place in the Premier League, where nostalgia will be the winner. The weekend’s Premier League action won’t feature Ivan Toney, after he’s banned for 8 months for 232 breaches of the FA’s gambling rules. But it will feature potentially the title, top 4 and relegation all being decided. And maybe Harry Kane’s last home game for Spurs? Rory takes on Sasha Goryunov in the second quarter-final of the Inter Totally Cup. Plus Forest’s small pitch and the Man United sale. Ends this Friday. Produced by Charlie Jones.
