The So, Renaldo back at Old Trafford this February.

0:30.0

Well first of all Ed a ho-ho-ho and a Merry Christmas to you and all listeners and when I say Christmas I of course mean appropriate seasonal festival or if there isn't one just ordinary week that you're a bit annoyed that everyone's going on about.

0:42.1

Yeah, horrible draw, isn't it?

0:44.0

I mean, it's a draw packed full with narrative, that's for sure.
