In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Sacked him why though?
Rumour has it, it was because he didn't spend enough time speaking about Indian players. BCCI and Dhoni not happy. Harsha sacked. Fml.
Just rumours though.
Hogg is playing better than ever and he is way older than Giggs ffs.
Incredible if true.
Yeah, he gave a very clear cut answer on his FB Page too as to why he did that. Can't believe that was why his contract was terminated. I don't like Bhogle much, but if that is indeed the reason, it's pretty messed up. There were are also other reasons supposedly, but most of Social Media is talking about this one.
Who the feck enjoys listening to Sehwag?
Wow. Big B giving his expert opinion on what commentators should do and the BCCI acting upon it to sack the guy. So fecking pathetic.
Yeah didn't he say if they had scored closer to 120-130 it should have been a closer game? Dafaq? Thats like an extra 20 runs. It wouldnt have done shit.
I just got lucky man.
Wtf is wrong with people.
Pathetic stuff from Dhoni. Didn't expect this from him of all people. Very unsportsmanlike.
I'll be muting 19 minutes of the commentary in tomorrow's game in honour of Harsha.

Don't worry about not scoring this match day or joining late because they have decided to not count any points till further notice because they fecked up by not having their website up and running in time.
I read that ticker on the website. However, I submitted my team 4/5 hours before yesterday's match and haven't gotten any points. The FPL suck balls

They've taken it down completely now.
What a shit show
I'm sorry but that's properly mental.Firstly Amitabh Bachchan giving out gyaan on who Indian commentators should speak about, then Dhoni wading in with more cuntishness and then BCCI topping it off by sacking a guy who has basically been the face/voice of Indian cricket TV broadcasting.
This is already the best game of the tournament
'Six distance 105m', it went crashing into the sightscreen which isn't that far from the boundary rope.
Longest six in WT20 was 101m. Russel's monster hit to the top tier was 99m. Don't know how the measure these things but it's obviously not very accurate.

That looked like obstruction frankly
If Ben Stokes was given out for what he did, then I can't see a huge amount of difference to that tbh.
Amitabh's age seems to be affecting him frankly. Making a mountain out a molehill

The fielding side withdrew their appeal. Otherwise he was a goner.
He even replied to people agreeing with his tweet like a 15 year old redcafe newbie.
Harsha's reply on Facebook was quality.
Need more cheerleader shots. In fact, the entire middle overs should be dedicated to them.
'Here's a reverse flick'
No it isn't you clueless cnut.

Some bastard just cost bravo a 5-fer
The graphics are terrible. I can't tell how many overs have been bowled without squinting really hard.
Bravo bowling well. 2 more votes for @Varun
He's absolutely class on such pitches. Has delivered again n again.
Exactly. It's clear that people were just hoping for replies from big b. Worst thing is Harsha was critiscized by SL for bias.
And those weird numbers before the player names appear.
Anyone want to bet when the top of this lady who is hosting the show will come off on its own?
The 'nationalism' bug is fast infecting people.
Bravo was obviously my Power Player. Now that the stupid website is down, can always vent and lament here.
Matt Floyd and Andy Flower here. Top buttons unbuttoned. Beat that
You should vote in the cricket draft.
Daft from Baz.
