Jonathan Pearce, wow.
There's one other question that arises here, Nick, and I know it's something that you actually just in the last couple of days, you were writing about the extreme dominance of the Premier League teams in the second and third European competitions.
Now, you know, like Villa are in the final, make him look easy.
Palace are in the final.
I think the Conference League's been won twice out of four times by the Premier League team to kind of waltz through this competition.
So there doesn't seem to be a problem there.
But in the Champions League, we've seen a bit of, well, obviously Arsenal are in the final, but you could say, well, they...
they had a kinder draw than some of the other teams.
The question is basically, has this, the type of laissez faire refereeing we've been discussing, promoted a style of football which is actually ill-fitted to the Champions League?
What I mean is, if you're a team that wants to succeed in the Premier League, you have to be like an all-terrain monster truck.
That has to be the design.
It has to be a very robust vehicle with huge wheels capable of crossing a, you know, a crater strewn World War I battlefield consisting of mud.
And this gives away a little bit of...
speed on the sort of smooth track of the Champions League ladder stages.
You know what I mean?
PSG and Barcelona and Bayern Munich and teams like this have lots of little technical players who would get absolutely massacred at corners in the Premier League because they don't have to face these types of situations.
Is there a thing there that the referees have actually kind of encouraged the game to develop in a way which is...
I mean, just the visual contrast between the defining moment of the Premier League season and the match of the Champions League season between PSG and Bayern is just amazing.
Just so you mentioned Liverpool there, Rich, you said you've been at two games this week.
One of them was at Anfield.
