I'm Danny Kelly, and because church bells are ringing out across the land and every village is festooned with bunting. I'm joined today by

the full firm. Jack Pitt Brook, Charlie Ekelcher and James Moore are here. Jack, we'll start with

you as you were privileged enough to be in the King Power Stadium for the game last night, at the end
