In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
I always picked the wrong bloody oneAt least no one will have to agonise if they should be putting ocon or gasly or both in their top 10 this season
This will be a very close qualifying session.
Apparently cold and windy on track
horner will find an intern to keep his hands warm.
First Q1 of the season 
Who's everyone put on pole in their predictions?
I went for Max, very tempted to put Charles though
Now to try and get home from work in time to at least watch some of it, if agent Sargent could cause a red flag and damage a barrier that takes over half an hour to repair, would be much appreciated
Stupid timing

4pm Friday qualifying is crap, this is my time to get ready for a night shift
Had to be Max but Iam not convinced he will be, was tempted to put HamiltonWho's everyone put on pole in their predictions?

WTF was the queue on the pit lane
that’s the actual speed of f1 cars. the tv companies just speed up the footage 1000x to try and make it exciting.
Mercedes have been sparking so much more than any other car. Hamilton especially.
Plank wear problems incoming.

Massive sparks from Hamiton, but pace was way off 0.8 seconds off P1
How long do we think it'll be til Ferrari and Charles let me down and ruin all my false hopes? I'm betting tomorrow.
Hamilton struggles and just gets in Q2
So much for Mercedes speed, this is worrying for them

Dead last and beaten by Haas.
Demote yourselves to F2 you losers.

Out in Q1!
16) Valtteri Bottas, Sauber
17) Zhou Guanyu, Sauber
18) Logan Sargeant, Williams
19) Esteban Ocon, Alpine

Alpine are embarrassing themselves here
Stake also looks as ugly to drive as it is ugly to look at.
Merc pace disappeared when it was needed then, looks like they probably raised the car and lost performance (even though its still sparking on the new skid blocks).
Track temps are making a huge difference, it's 10 degrees lower than usual for quality today.
Not a suprise, the Renault CEO said they were in F1 for advertising and selling cars not winning races and championships.
The whole field within 1 second... wow!
Amazed they still can't make these teams get their cars out of the pitlane quick enough, it's incredibly pointless.
Glad Alonso left Alpine for AM.
Track temp not helping and the wind , apparently.
Can see Hamilton struggling again in Q2
Stewards looking at Russell from Q1
Stewards have 'noted' Mercedes' George Russell for failing to follow the race director's instructions and adhering to the maximum delta time in Q1.

Piastri and Alonso could have been driving that car.
Oh dear, here comes the sith lord of F1
Max is back.
That's the first time he's used 8th gear at Bahrain this month.
How inevitable.
Max with a monster Q2 lap, half a second faster
TV off and all those things.
But Max on new and Lando on used ?
He's back and he's pretty rapid, 6/tenths on Lando there as well.
You have to wonder why all other drivers than Verstappen suck at this.
