Hello and welcome to the prize of football, the show that looks at the money behind the

beautiful game of me Kevin Day and Liverpool University's Kirin Maguire. How are you Kirin?

Since you've had another musical week by the look of your social media.

I have and I'd just like to say a huge shout out to one of our podcast listeners,

Brynn, who allowed me to go in the cab of a London tube train and made my choice of career

when I was six years old. He made that come true because I was told when they told me

I was colourblind. Remember those days they show you those sort of dots and there was

no counselling in those days. You colourblind, I go well so what, I'm six years old. You

weren't there to fly a plane or drive a train. I was devastated. So 55 years later to go

back and sit in the cab from an elephant in Castle North was genuinely a dream come true.

So thank you so much. Well it must have been Kirin because I was going to ask you about

I thought you weren't seeing the picture up towards this week but obviously you're so excited

about sitting on a tube train. Was this entirely official? I've got an official document

signed by London Transport to say Kirin Maguire is allowed to sit in the cab and signed

off by the station manager and everything. Well you know what I would do if I was

a junior kid and I'd go on strike now. Just to make it fully official. Did you go

and see the pet shop boys Kirin or were you just going to talk tube trains here? No, no,

I did see the pet shop boys who were absolutely amazing. I've not seen them for a while. I think

it's fair to say that there was a meeting of minds because pet shop boys were playing

at Wembley Arena and Harry Styles was playing at Wembley Stadium and slightly different

demographics. I say no more than that. Yeah. I'd imagine the pet shop boys would happily

collaborate with Harry Styles. I wondered if Neil Tennant would be jealous of you
