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?
Eboue's going to love Chase Winovich laying the lumber for the 6-time Super Bowl champion New England Patriots next season 
And the Patriots' draft was dull: they actually used their 1st round pick on a position they need.
It's only fun when when Belichick trades out of the 1st round for extra picks in the 4th in order to pick a back-up long snapper or a special teamer no one's ever heard of.

Gonna miss these two so much. I'd accepted Kam was done but Baldwin is gutting, was always so relaxing knowing that when Wilson was doing his bullshit scrambles that Baldwin would always get open.
No date for all or nothing but it's gonna be on the Carolina Panthers apparently. Watching them fall apart will be interesting I guess.

That's a big fat 'meh'.
Might be fun to see the wheels come off their season and Cam being a stroppy bitch, mind.
Lame.
Other than seeing what Cam is like it’ll be boring.
Bloody surprised its not the Raiders. Can only assume they're saving that for the Vegas season
He’s a weird dude.

the best description of toilolo is "Professional Tall Person"
He was pretty useful at Atlanta to be fair.
Jamie Collins back to Patriots
Typical Belichick move. Been a good off-season for us so far.
He’s weird. Like, really weird.
Jets fired their GM and VPoPP.
Patrick Peterson suspended for half the season, wow. Big set-back for the Cardinals.
McCoy released. Interesting move by Arians. Wonder who will pick him up.
And Reuben Foster has torn his ACL...
Already signed Suh to a one-year deal now.
Another great OU defensive tackle’s career wasted in Tampa. That’s a shame for GK.

Unless he’s gonna come in at a much lower cost this makes no sense to me.
No idea but that was my initial thought as well. McCoy was due to make $13m in base salary for 2019, while Suh's one-year deal with the Rams last year was worth around $14m, so I doubt he's getting the same kind of money from the Bucs. Probably a 'prove your worth' deal for Suh but his numbers aren't really better than McCoy's anymore (less sacks and QB hits on a stacked Rams' DL), and that's even disregarding the latter's contributions to the local community and stuff.

Fckin shambles
Anyone planning on going to the London games this year?
Think I might go for it this year, whats the best way to get decent tickets?

Also do existing Spurs season ticket holders get first dibs on NFL tickets?
Total farce.
1. No priority for old season ticket holders at Spurs.
2. Spurs ticket prices are absurd.

Yep - I’ve been going for a good few years now.
It’s good, different atmosphere to a game in the states or a football match but still a lot of fun.
Not happy with what they’ve done with the Spurs tickets though.
And its open to everybody, meaning touts will get it as per usual, and have it on re-selling sites for 10 times the worth, and it wont be cancelled / taken down.
I really want to go to a game this season. Last year I got mugged with a fake ticket so if any of you help me with a ticket this year that would be really great . I will try my best to get a spurs season ticket
Has anyone been to a game in the US and the UK? I'm curious how the experiences compare. I have no interest in going to an NFL game here. I've been to probably 20 or so and if I never go again that's fine.
Look at you trying to boast about all the games you have attended
They're lions games. Not much to boast about. These are the only ones that stand out

I’ve been to all the UK games for the past couple years.
In the US, I’ve seen Pats @ Jets last year and Jets Giants 3/4 years ago (the one where the played in the reg season.
The experience is different but also similar. The UK games are more a collection of NFL fans. People wear the jersey of the team they support. It’s chilled out. People just want to see a good game.
US is obviously different in that there’s a home and away team and you only have fans of those teams there.
One thing that annoys me in the UK games (less so in recent years though) is that it’s still very much as if they think people attending know very little about the NFL.
On the flip side what’s fun though is that it’s a “special” event so everyone’s pretty up for it rather than for the US games I felt fans were going to the game and it was a bit of a process / habit rather than being genuinely up for it.
In terms of stadium atmosphere, hands down it is better in the US but that’s expected.
McCoy visiting the Browns. They're trying really hard to become my favorite team, seems like.
