Hello and welcome to the Manchester United Podcast on tour assisted by team viewer

this is episode number eight it is the day after we beat Crystal Palace and

joining me in Manchester is Paul Walston. Paul how are you?

I'm good thanks.

Yeah how yourself? Do you know what I'm lovely thank you also with us joining us from Perth where the team

how long you been there Sam?

In Perth yeah we've been there an hour and a half. The team arrived an hour and a half ago,

I'm reliably told, is Sam Carney.

Sam, we're going to catch up with you in one second first

because it's Paul's debut on the tour podcast.

We're going to go straight to Paul.

Paul, presumably presumably if everything had been as you hoped it would have been you'd have been on this tour.

Yeah, hopefully would have been on this tour or elsewhere on another preseason too, you know, it's a good time.

It's, you know, to start, not many players like it, because it's a bit brutal, but it's getting ready for the

season.

Have you heard from many of the lads out there so far or anything like that?

I was meant to play with golf with Wilfish last Wednesday, but he got the call up so he had to cancel that on his head.

It was literally 6 p.m. Tuesday night England time he was in Arran

had to go to get some stuff from the training ground then half a the following

morning he's on his way and then obviously he got on and it didn't think the ref was a bit harsh. It's a bit harsh. It's a pre-season friendly.

You know the ref needs to just be a bit calmer and go right next time there's a

yellow I'm not gonna say but please just don't do anything
