    Whenever he turns up in those early to mid 90s Premier League Years he always steals the show. Sitting in the wrong dugout. Ranting at Richard Keys from a MASSIVE screen. Saving various obsolete midlands outfits from relegation.

    Ron Atkinson is my 90s commentator. Synonymous with United in the Champions League.

    Finished reading Wayne Barton's book about United in the 80s as well and he was unlucky to not be the man to win United the league a few times.

    England were terrible first half in that game then better as the game went on. Great pens. Gazza was well past his best already in 96.

    Just saw Dortmund-Bayern is on Tuesday at 17:30. Already starting to lose interest in the league but at least that will keep me hooked for 2 hours.

    I'm watching the Big Ron documentary now. Jesus. It's like a lost Brass Eye episode.

    I saw it the other day. Properly bizarre and I don’t know what anyone involved was thinking.

    I think the angle was, "Ron wants to defend himself so let's watching him dig." And dig he did.

    This Schalke side are fucking dreadful.

    David Wagner's solution is to just keep sending on unproven teenagers.

    1 win in 9 for Schalke

    Wagner must be quite literally the worst manager I've ever seen.

    This should be a goalfest.

    Game earlier in the season finished 8-0 to Leipzig and the last time they played at Mainz's ground it was 3-3.

    Depends what you're after. A lot of it's in Paul's own words but you don't really get many revelations. The drinking's kinda glossed over in favour of sticking to the good football. You don't get anything from his post-Rangers / Euro 96 days which is where his career limped to a finish. No mention of Jimmy Five Bellies either.

    Had money on over 2.5 & both teams to score as well as a little bit on over 5.5 goals.

    Keep them coming lads.

    Seems like the young shop-window Germans are playing for those big-money moves since the league started up again.

    Koln just had a penalty saved and then two players got in the way of the rebound. Heh.

    What scenes in the late game.

    Koln scored in the 88th and 91st minute to secure a draw.

    Monday 25 May: Germany vs Croatia quarter-final - 3pm - ITV Hub

    I'm hoping to see a goal today after the first two quarter finals ended in 0-0s and penalty victories (for ENGLAND and France). The winners of this fixture will have a renewed England to face. The English will be hoping it's not the Germans... I'm hoping for a Boban masterclass.

    Is the England game worth a watch?

    It was a better game than I'd been led to believe and not quite the one-way traffic I understood it to be either but Spain were definitely robbed.

    Yeah agree with that. Spain dominated the first half and should have had a goal if it wasn't for the Russian linesman. The rest of the game was classic England scrappy without quality.

    He's currently winning the vote.

    I wonder if they'd actually let him go should he lose though.

    The performance of Stuart Pearce is one of the best I've seen in an England shirt. Didn't put a foot wrong all game and his penalty was a belter.

    Unless the schedule is just wrong again it looks like England / Germany is on on Thursday as it's the one listed for ITV4 as well.

    Can't wait.
