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?
I am going to vote at the death.
I will go all liam neeson on your ass if I lose due to your vote.
Its unbelievable how my side having a better Batting lineup, bowling lineup and fielding is still having a neck to neck competition 
.
I mean, MJJ is relying on just 2 batsmen on a spinner's paradise- 1 of those cant play in such conditions. Jaya is your best bet to do well, but he isn't the greatest runner.
I have 2 technically brilliant batsmen (2 of top 4 in the world today), I have Buttler, and Rohit Sharma and hard hitters like Marsh at top and Wright lower down. And I also have some really fit players who can run brilliantly between the wickets!
On one side you have 1 specialist spinner, 2 pace bowlers (one of them concedes 8+rpo), 2 part timers as compared to other side that has 2 specialist spinners, 2 specialist pacers and 1 part timer.
On one side you have just Kohli as a top fielder, other side- Smith, Jadeja, Rohit and Williamson.
Where is it going wrong!
Cricket..Bloody Hell!

Not the best day to defend jadeja and ashwinIts unbelievable how my side having a better Batting lineup, bowling lineup and fielding is still having a neck to neck competition

Tbf that was definitely not a spinning pitch.Not the best day to defend jadeja and ashwin
Considering the pitch had nothing, and quite a lot of dew in 2nd innings, I don't think you can even blame themNot the best day to defend jadeja and ashwin
That's like saying, there was a proper batsmans pitch, the lowest scorer was Gayle (Even extras were more or equal), hence Gayle can't bat!
Name 1 bowler who is presently in top 10 in all 3 formats?
There is only 1- Ashwin!
Peak dude, not present. Otherwise your fav tanvir wasnt even selected ahead of the sami
Yes, just think when a player isnt at his peak and still this good, how good was he at his peak (which I believe he has been in and around past 2 years)!Peak dude, not present. Otherwise your fav tanvir wasnt even selected ahead of the sami
You are ashwin arent you?Yes, just think when a player isnt at his peak and still this good, how good was he at his peak (which I believe he has been in and around past 2 years)!
I wish! (Even he is a United fan BTW)
Greatest bowler, WC winner, multiple times IPL winner, CLT20 winner- Success!
Tiebreaker!
And how does that work?
We normally do best of next 3 votes posted in the thread. Not sure if he wants something different.
16 each wow
Anant's is the better balanced team, and MJJs superior batting doesn't overpower that

Is that how you'd vote if the poll was open Ed?
I already voted anant, so sorry, can't be your tiebreaker, coudn't screw MJJ that much
we ll resolve this tomorrow via super over
How many people voted for MJJ because of Kohli today?
Pretty sure the result would have been different had Kohli not been playing like this in WC
Yeah, would have won instead of the draw. Damn you @AkshayPretty sure the result would have been different had Kohli not been playing like this in WC
I'd have voted you if Kohli had defended 8 runs in that final over
You should still have voted for me, so ungrateful to kohli's greatness.I'd have voted you if Kohli had defended 8 runs in that final over
I might still get to, depending on how this super over lark is going to work.
I meant the WC, not just the match. Had other batsmen been performing better or Kohli a bit worse, easy win for me, conversely had Kohli won India the match yesterday with the ball, many might have switched from me to you!
The timing of the draft during WC, will result in players gaining and losing reputation after they were drafted!
So how this super over works?
Yup. Adds another spice to the whole thing.
Let's just say if anant is from India and MJJ is from Pakistan and this draft can be considered on a similar level to a WC tournament, then there's only one winner.

How does this work exactly? I mean I'm assuming there's a reason why both teams are awful
One used up all his budget on Kohli and Gayle, the other one overpaid for shit players like Tanvir and Smith.
Gimme a couple of hours
MJJ in every auction draft basically.
My track record of auction drafts is 2 wins out of 3. #ProvenTrackRecordMJJ in every auction draft basically.
I know, it's the best strategy. I did the same with Cristiano and Platini in one of them.
