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?
This is so strange from France. They look disinterested. Their kick chase is non existent yet they keep kicking the ball away.
This kick tennis rule thing is awful.
Pretty poor game too.
Pretty poor game too.
Worst game I've seen for a while.
Aye, they're awful so far.
Started well but has devolved into being a terrible game. Suits Scotland at this point. They really need to have a rethink of that rule, completely discourages counterattacking off kicks.
I just fecking knew it.
Scotland fannying about all half.

Hilarious
FFS typical.Oh Scotland.
Shame for Patterson, he's had a great debut. They said on the telly here that he's only played 7 top flight games, and 6 at full back.

That French knock on that was deemed sideways before the try was also definitely not sideways.
Scotland’s terrible 2nd half mentality and discipline showing again. 2nd game in a row.
Finn is doing nothing this half.

Yeah that seemed wrong.
Definite knock on. Yeah 2nd half has been fire from Scotland for a second game in a row. Pity as you've done so much good stuff in first halves of both games.
Hard luck kiddo.
Such bad luck!
One body too many to beat. He gave it a good shot.
I was at the last Italy game and it was awfully drab in the crowd
I think that's a try but not enough to overturn?
Looks like a try there 
France made a bollocks of that last scrum.
That’s a try
That’s a try!
Oh wow! This is mad.
That’s bullshit
What a corrupt game this is
So so difficult for the ref team.
Disgusting.
TMO bottled it.
Im fecking livid.

Ah FFS that's so clearly a try.
Absolute disgrace and a mockery of this sport
France couldn't have deserved that less.
Looked a try to me.
Also I don’t like this held up rule, it should be a scrum 5
I’m not sure anyone would have complained if the TMO had said yes it’s grounded, as it is though……
That is outrageous
That was a try to me. It was a on a foot, moved off the foot and went downwards significantly. Common sense says that it was touched down at that point.
Yeah I feel it's been a negative change to the game too.
I'm a rugby expert now.
The ball was held up over the line on orange boots and then another angle shows it on the ground (still over the fecking line) and they can’t grow some balls and give it?
Our tactics before the late French try were abysmal though.

Poor call.
Scotland robbed

Yeah I think it was a try but the ref couldn't see it was a try from 1m away and there was no proof of the ball touching the line on the footage so there's no way it could have been given.
