Peter Grant

So there's a hell of a lot of work that goes into that, types of players the manager wants.

So all these things, and we try to put that side across and make sure that people understand that it's not as easy as we think.

And we try and put the problem and say, well, if you're saying that, what would you do?

And,

I think that's only fair.

We try and back the managers as much as we possibly can.

We try and say with the players that nobody's never not trying all these things because we've been there.

We maybe have bad games.

The team's maybe going through a bad time.

We try to put that perspective and I think that's important.

I think for the fans as well who are really knowledgeable by and large about football and deserve that respect.

as well and they've got access here by calling in or you can email us you can whatsapp you can text or whatever James you love your football you're not in management at the moment Peter's not in management so there's a lot on tonight we don't have time to talk about why you're not in just now it is strange Peter what you've done and at the moment you're not in football management but I know you miss it day to day James do you miss it?

Hey, it's not a popularity contest, is it?

You can't keep everybody happy.

more so nowadays Paul you see it I thought the Xabi Alonso thing I'm looking upon it and I'm looking down at the chairman and I'm saying if I was the chairman I'd have made a stance against Mbappé not against the manager Mbappé too much power telling the players to come away when you've got Xabi Alonso the type of player he was and the type of respect he had for others he was trying to respect Barcelona he wasn't trying to

to belittle his players and we understand that and he was trying but for him to say no and wave his players away and everybody else to follow like wee lambs the chairman should have made a statement about him more than he should have been about the manager and I thought that was really disrespectful to say the least

The Sun Online are saying that the three-way title race, if it continues like this, the split then after the 33rd game for the last five games, there is going to be an imbalance because to try to keep all three of them, you know, somebody gets a game at home more than others and it's normally Celtic and Rangers, but this year it could be three and one of them or two of them are going to be

I'm not that good at math, but one of them is going to be unhappy at least.

But look, that's a while away.

We've had 22 games so far.
