Thank you. Welcome to the Total Soccer Show and an episode in which we'll set ourselves our 2023 New Year's resolutions.

This year, 2022 was wrapped up with Argentina winning the World Cup,

but the big win of the year was clear for all to see the lionesses bringing it home at Wembley.

2020 also featured Senegal triumphing in Afcon, politics forcing Roman Abramvich to get his jog on,

Carlo Ancelotti posing with a massive cigar, Barcelona making financial moves that were quite bizarre,

Kurt Zuma kicking his cat, Erling Harlem proving that he is all that,

and TSS bringing the chat at our live show in Brooklyn, which didn't fall flat. So let's look ahead

to 2023 when the Premier League will probably be won by Man City, when Newcastle will go on a

spending spree, when all MLS teams will try to best L-AFC and where this podcast

is going to be the place to be, hopefully. My name's Ryan Bailey joining me today, a man who's looking

forward to his New Year's Eve party as much as Namar, but he didn't need to get a red card

to enjoy celebrating it. Graham Ruffman, hello. Hello, Ryan Bailey. I am interested in what everyone

does for New Year's Eve, actually, or Hogmane, as we call it in Scotland. That is genuinely what

people call it here. Yes, it's a funny word. Get over it. But are you guys like party people?

Or do you like wear novelty glasses with the number of the year and are you downing

shooies at midnight or are you pulling the curtains and calling it an early night before 12pm?

What sort of person are you?
