Arsenal-Newcastle.
It was, yes.
And Newcastle actually played quite well in that match.
And I thought very interestingly when Eddie Howe came in and spoke to us in the media room afterwards, amongst the things that he said was that Newcastle, he said, we're going to have a very big summer on and off the pitch.
And I thought, bearing in mind the speculation about his future, and they lost that game, that was five defeats in a row, I thought that was quite a statement from him to make it clear that, in his mind, he's going to be the Newcastle manager.
Well, the commentaries that we've got coming up on Five Live and the BBC Sounds app from Saturday right the way through until Thursday, we have a feast of football to look forward to.

with Mark Chapman from 12, bearing in mind the championship games kick off at 12.30, and there's so much at stake.
where you've got three teams looking for automatic promotion.
And then you've got the playoff position as well, where three teams are looking to try and get into the playoffs.
That will be a captivating listen in itself.
Then Brentford West Ham, which will have ramifications as far as the relegation is concerned at three.
But then we've got League One and League Two, which is, again, so much on the line in those two divisions.
So I would urge anybody on Saturday afternoon just to be in the company on Five Live Sport because it should be a really, really good listen.
