This podcast is sponsored by now, where you can stream Sky Sports and watch 215.

Oh yeah, I'm always watching socks and boots and shin pads, the whole lot. However you're watching now's got you covered. Sky Sports is going up from 128 to at least 215. Live Premier League games this season. That's more matches, more drama, and loads more of the action that matters. I'm not sure about more drama. Don't we already get too much? We do, we do, but life's a bit dull without it. Yeah, fair point. No sleep until May. You can watch even more League United this season with now stream Sky Sports flexibly on Now, so you're not tied down. Just stream what you want, when you want. And if we're rock bottom after the first few games, you can remove your pass and everyone understand.

Dan Moyland here, along with Chris Mack and Rob Conlon, as well as we analyze a cup exit at the hands of a bunch of children from Sheffield.

We haven't been fairing so well against the youth recently.
