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?

We need some decent Corner Backs though.
Go Raiders!!
Will have to check out the highlights later, but congrats you probably just sealed the division.@Rado_N did not expect our O line to keep the Broncos so quiet. Huge win for the Raiders
Loving the Raiders right now. Solid squad building over a few years. Oakland @ New England in the conference finals
Way too early to say that,as much as I like the Raiders there is a long way to go.
I forgot the Chiefs won last night, but I still think the Raiders will win the division now.
My prediction for the playoffs-From 1-6
AFC - NE-KC-Texans-Steelers-Raiders-Broncos
NFC- Cowboys-Falcons-Seahawks-Packers-Lions-Giants

NFC has too many ordinary teams this year. They all have game-winners but are inconsistent and seem 'meh' to me.
Raiders are brilliant. Hope they go deep in the playoffs & then lose to NE

Dont you dare try and Jinx us! Still very close, even the Chargers are showing signs of life.
I'm not!Denver aren't gonna go all the way this year and if we can't do it I'd be happy for you to stop the Patriots!
I mean feck, if Liverpool win the PL and NE win the Super Bowl in the same year I might have to give up on sports forever.
I hate the Patriots too, but ive got a feeling that they are cruising towards another Super Bowl.

Hopefully the Giants get to it too then
which is extremely unlikely, not sure we'll even make the playoffs.
Great start, guys.
Jimmy Graham 1 handed catch whilst being DPId

The one where he's holding the defender off with one arm & catching the ball with the other (whilst the ball is bobbling around) is a great effort.
Poor sexy rexy won't last beyond this season.
Loved when the Ryan brothers went batshit during the field goal fails at the end of the first half
To be fair, the Bills were good.
Taylor and McCoy were illusive, the offensive play calling was good, just their secondary let them down.
I am not confident going into the Pats game.

Raiders look the real deal. Just watched the game.
Sherman should get a fine for that hit, clearly going for the knees.
I doubt we could have envisioned injuries to both RBs and key secondary players. But I do agree that the way MM/TT have gone about draft/replacements leaves much to desire.
Its not only that, its the way they are used. The predictable play calls, the inability to separate (which the players need to take blame for, but then, its the route they are assigned to take)...
He claims he was going for the ball, but the way he is going in goes against how they teach you to block a kick because the way he does it should result in a 15 yard personal foul. He is aiming for the kicker the whole way. And I like Richard Sherman.
Alright well can't argue with opinion.
Well arguing opinion sure beats arguing facts.
valid.Why wasn't that a roughing the kicker penalty?
Seems quite a loophole to get at kickers/passers

Cleveland are trash. Stayed up to watch a bit of TNF & the feckers had to burn a time-out before the first snap of the game! Ravens colour rush was nice though.
Also, I find it remarkable Kaep, for all his anthem protests, decided not to vote in the election as he felt nothing would change with either candidate. Whilst Clinton may not be everyone's cup of tea, her agenda was wildly different & surely Kaep would be able to recognise that! I think he's stupid not to vote & his anthem protests going forward will lose any purpose. His vote may not have changed the result but to show apathy in the election & then still demand/protest for change is silly, imo.

Hadn't heard he didn't vote, what an idiot.
Making a stand for change but not doing anything to try and stop a racist becoming President. Genius.

Will Cleveland be the first team since the 2008 Lions to go 0-16? They're such a badly run franchise, it's almost hard to believe.
And on the Kaep issue. What an absolute idiot.
And on the Kaep issue. What an absolute idiot.
Cleveland might fluke a win like Miami did a few years ago (against Baltimore in OT if memory serves) and avoid 0-16. But they're woeful. Dallas toyed with them all day last weekend.

AFC playoffs - could we ultimately witness a Raiders/Pats matchup that perhaps ends the Brady era (as it began 15 years ago) and usher in the Carr era? That's mouthwatering. Everyone else is on the outside looking in IMO. Chiefs and Steelers my best bets to upset, with Denver and Houston as the cannon fodder.
NFC playofss - tossup for me. I cannot fathom a rookie QB starting the SB (don't think it's ever happened) and there's the possibility the NFL could suspend Elliott (doubtful though). Falcons - not sold on them. Seattle has the coaching and experience and I'd wager on them winning the NFC at this point. Can't envision Detroit or Green Bay doing anything of note as this point. And surely we won't see another ludicrous January run by the Giants.

I find it remarkable that in the AFC WEST Chargers are 4th yet in the overall AFC they are effectively tied 6th...!
The AFC West is easily the toughest division in the conference, if not the whole NFL.
I think Cleveland will win at least once. They've been competitive in a lot of games.
I'm can't help but like Derek Carr, which annoys me to no end as a Broncos fan.
I'll stand by my original prediction that it's a year too early for them to make a serious run, but they're trending sharply upwards.

Pats-Seahawks should be a good & difficult game. Seattle got Graham going in the last game so the TE battle will be fun to watch. Would be a huge step to getting the #1 seed if we got the win. Wish it wasn't the late night game though
That catch from DT was class
